Didn't think Zherdev was a Burkie kind of guy. So much for the nationality pairings on the Wings.

There's your argument for why Abdelkader should stay on the roster. ADD: I actually think Eaves has better offensive upside than Cleary. He at least has a better wrister.

Am I reading this right? Just kidding. I knew what you meant. I really don't know about this whole playing hard thing. Everyone can play hard but everyone won't look like Helm. In saying that, how can you tell if someone is playing hard when in your mind playing hard is the way Darren Helm plays? How do you know Lidstrom is playing hard by that standard?

Chicken Mcnuggets actually. Like what I'm eating now. Oh, and with Faygo Red Pop. Be jealous peoples who no longer live in MI or have access to said beverage. Ha!

Moar smart signings pls.

Dick Axelsson-Justin Abdelkader-Mattias Ritola = Calder Cup, FTW!!! Or Hat Trick-Apple Fritters-Cough Drop if you prefer.

What if Helm suddenly learned to fight this past summer? I think I'd be okay with that. He doesn't have the hands of Pav or Z anyways.

Would signing Prospal push Fil out of the top 6?

NO! It's summer time and I'm bored! We're supposed to argue until I get sleepy, wake up, and then do it all over again tomorrow until Kenny signs Prospal. And if that doesn't happen, we'll argue about that! If you think you're going to let me become bored you got another thing coming! That's right. I'm an internet tough guy.

Sure but I'm thinking he could've gotten more. This is a guy who apparently made 1.1 mil last season. He's been through some injuries but league minimum? This guy must really want to be a Red Wing.

According to capgeek the Wings also signed him so that he'll be a RFA after this year. It's an even better deal than I thought.

They're just desperate to get a North American in the top-six. But they shouldn't fret because Cleary looks to be a fixture on the second line.

So in a way he's going to fill in for Hossa. Except he'll actually stay on the 3rd line where he belongs.

Holmstrom has a good enough pedigree that he'll start the season in his normal spot. I'm hesitant to think that Leino and Eaves will be on the same line but that's probably how Babs will start out. Pav-Z-Homer Bear-Fil-Mule Pug-Helm-Eaves (Abby)-Drapes-Malts

How the hell did Kenny get this guy at 500k?

Comparisons to a Cleary story but let's not go overboard here.

A bigger and more serious what if may be what if they actually allowed that Hossa goal in Game 3?

Apparently he wanted 4-5 mil as a RFA. Now that he's an UFA, he's going back home.

Don't think it's up to Kenny at this point.

Looks like we're stuck arguing over the usual. Goons and our tweeners (Filppula, Leino, Homer). I actually think Filppula will be the new whipping boy, mostly because of the lack of confidence in his shot. I think he's fairly confident in everything else but his shot. And you just know we fans like to prey on anyone with a lack in confidence.

Haha. Sorry. That last reply was one I posted in a hurry because I was between other things. I didn't mean that to come off so annoyingly. You obviously know more about the Griffins. I'm just curious as to why he's often being slated to be a reserve forward (not just by you) after putting in a year of work. Nothing more than that though. Still think he's struggling to manage his weight problems? I read that he put on a lot of weight but didn't know how to manage it and maintain the same speed in his game.

Everybody thank WingsFights for putting these up.

It's ok LeftWinger. Huds is still gone.

Everybody check this out. I love how at 6:03 of this video the whole Wings bench is up because they can just feel something's gonna happen. The Caps bench was probably all like, "What the hell are you all standing for you morons?"

Haha. Yeah, in all honesty, I'm like many others on here in that I just don't see eye to eye with him much of the time. But I gotta give him some props. At least he stands up for what he believes in. It's odd. I disagree with him so much and yet that's actually why I look for his opinion.
