    Not going anywhere exotic, but the games always look nicer on a big screen plasma.

    MAC-SANITY!

    With Joey Mac playing so well Babcock should make sure Howard is healthy before he plays, so as not to reinjure himself.

    How Would You Fix the All Star Game?

    Play the game at the end of the year when players won't be as scared of full contact. Yes I know it's a pipe dream, owners would never allow that and players would still be afraid of injury. But hey I can dream.

    Kids Helmet

    Hi all, My 7 year old nephew has been been begging for a red helmet for x-mas, but not sure which brand makes the best for kids. I've looked at the mark messier project helmets but don't know much about them. Does anybody have any experience or opinions in regards to them. Also can you guys recommend any other brands that make red helmets that are considered good for kids, as far as weight and protection goes. I appreciate all your help.

    Buyers Remorse

    I know it's only been 9 games but Ian White looks terrible, he gets caught pinching constantly, his shots are all over the place, and he just does not seem to have an ability to make a break out pass. The question arises with so many games left in the season can he turn it around or is this just who he is. I wish him the best, for the Wing's sake and for my own sanity. But in the mean time does anybody else have a little buyers remorse?

    Buyers Remorse

    Just because you don't agree with the thread doesn't make it a troll thread. And furthermore if you don't have anything constructive to say to add to the discussion, why even post. And just because White sacrificed his body on a hell of a play that saved a goal. Does not make him the find of the century. He definately has been playing better since this thread was started, which is what I wrote I was hoping for earlier in the post.

    Buyers Remorse

    White is absolutely not to blame for us playing like crap the last for games, nor is he the reason we won the first five. He is just one piece of the puzzle, and a piece that so far has not fit. I hope he just has to get comfortable, but we'll see.

    Buyers Remorse

    Just because he was the best choice, on the Free Agent market, doesn't mean you can't regret spending 3 mil of your cap space on him. I hope it changes but right now he looks slow for the type of game the wings like to play.

    I was using the swype feature on droid, I guess thats what happens when you dont double check.

    Buyers Remorse

    How is it ridicules, it's not like he's making chump change, and he was supposed to play with Lidstrom. Personally I like the guy but from what I've seen he is not a top d-man. What does this have to do with losing it's not like he was a godsend the first five games.

    Report: Gary Bettman makes $7.5M

    And once again my point goes over your head. There is a difference between commenting on a thread and complaining about the people that are commenting on the thread. I never complained I was just stating the simple fact that if you are tired of the same threads just don't comment. He wanted to sound superior and put down the people that were commenting.

    Report: Gary Bettman makes $7.5M

    I said his sole purpose was to complain about people complaining about Bettman. Everybody else here came to this thread to complain about Bettman. See the difference?

    Report: Gary Bettman makes $7.5M

    There actually is a difference the only reason Konnan511 entered this thread is to complain about people complaining. That was his sole purpose at first, if he posted his second comment the first time I wouldn't have said a word. And furthermore you have to be insane to think Bettman is doing anything but runningthe sport into the ground, and I'm not necessarily talking about financially. Just look at all the penalties called during games especially when a team is behind. Those type of blatent calls have to have come from some directive from the top. You can also include the shootout as another asinine Bettman idea. Why can't hockey have a real overtime like other sports?

    Report: Gary Bettman makes $7.5M

    The difference is I'm commenting on a thread I find interesting, and you're just complaining. Nobody made you look at this thread or for that matter comment on it.

    Another complaint about bashing Bettman...How original... If you're not interested in commenting, don't. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean others shouldn't either.

    Erik Cole

    Haven't heard much about him, I think he would be great on Datsyuk's line.
  25. This move eats up cap space but doesn't add anything to the team.
