  1. Will he be a reliable NHL player? Still don't know yet. Can he be a #1 elite elite elite defenseman? He's got a long way to go. Just stating the obvious though.

    Shea Weber named Nashville Captain

    So much for trying to steal him away after Lidstrom retires.

    Brett Lebda signs with Toronto

    Haha... He's such a ******. I'm referring to all my memories of Lebda combined, including that one time HNIC highlighted Ozzie yelling at him for not playing all that smart.
  4. He's gotta know that he's most likely going to GR. And that's not like a 60-70% chance, more like 98.9% odds.

    Red Wings prospect camp

    Aw goddammit! It's the pictures from the recent facebook page. http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=182687&id=16313679138 They put Sheahan in Bertuzzi's locker; Jarnkrok in Filppula's locker and as they've done the past two years, Smith in Lidstrom's locker. I mean, they could've just taken off the names there but they hope that maybe adds a little extra subliminal motivation I suppose.

    Red Wings prospect camp

    Interesting photos from the Wings locker room stalls. No one can really say if there's any intentional and subliminal messages going on but man, that can really drive a dude crazy. "Hey Sheahan, we'd like for you to be like a Bertuzzi in his prime; and Jarnkrok, we'd like for you to exhibit a work ethic and determination game like Filppula; and Smith... Lidstrom, that is all." Haha.

    Yeah I fixed it already. Too bad it wasn't quick enough. I read Mindfly's post too fast.

    Red Wings prospect camp

    Probably. Or maybe Fischer. For forwards it's ZEEEEEEE. Not sure when the season started back in 2002 but if it began before October 9th then Zetterberg was 21 to start his rookie season. His birthday is Oct 9th, 1980, which means that on Oct 9th, 2002 he had to have turned 22.

    True and could not care less versus could care less. Although I suppose that one is a little more advanced.

    Red Wings Making Play for Modano

    I like the idea that someone had of #41, which is the age he'll be when he's won his second cup!

    So Franzen was the best player in the playoffs

    He got a lot of flack on these boards for his performance in the playoffs other than that one 4 goal game.

    Jason Williams for the Selke trophy too.

    Red Wings Making Play for Modano

    Well, haha, yeah. The veteran thing is a rather minor but serious concern of mine for Modano. I mean, he got pushed to the 4th line for a reason and he admitted that mentally and emotionally he really struggled to play every night the way he felt like he could. We hope that a new team and a winning environment will give him a spark but he is 40 years old, he's already won a cup and it's a loooooong season. I don't blame him at all for taking his time to make this decision.

    Red Wings Making Play for Modano

    Something that also might be a concern for Modano is the way Babs has been known to interact with veterans. Shanahan, Lang, etc.

    I knew it. Definitely the best way to get a job.

    Red Wings Making Play for Modano

    9 - Absolutely not. 91 - I feel like we all agree that he shouldn't wear 91 either. 90 - Would it look so bad? 92 - Eh, who wears a 92? 93 - Muuuuuuule

    Ritola, Miller or Eaves?

    One side thinks that Ritola's upside is good and that he will reach it one day. The other side is tremendously confused and has no idea where all the hype comes from.

    Miller signs 1 year deal

    Although this reaction isn't that surprising. I remember reading an article about the Miller brothers and how Drew was somewhat of a hothead growing up and Ryan was the more "by the book" kind of guy.

    Miller signs 1 year deal

    Doesn't look that intimidating with not much muscle and gray hair.

    Red Wings Making Play for Modano

    Well he went home to talk about it with his family. I don't think we should read into the fact that he hasn't signed yet... Should we?

    Lilja likely gone

    Eaves signs 1 year deal

    His best one imo: Around the 6:40 mark.

    Brett Lebda signs with Toronto

    I'm thinking Lebda must know somebody in the Leafs organization to get that contract. I was thinking maybe he witnessed some crime Burke committed but the contract isn't that insane for him.

    The Bottom Six and Modano

    No that was the 09 run. Drake-Draper-Cleary was the third line in the 08 run. Draper and Cleary led the forwards in PK TOI by far.

    Brett Lebda signs with Toronto

    Yeah I know. Since it's Lebda I think I just really wanted him to say something like that but ah well.
