It's Slava Kozlov's autograph. Here is some proof for you. It's a really badly written one too.

Out of 246 games he's only played 39 of them? My GOD... Someone needs to grow some balls and get rid of him.

I don't see the problem. As long as they don't make the logo bigger than the wings logo. Seriously, more money for the Ilitchs' and the brand, makes it easier on us in the end. Too much bitching not enough support for the greatest team in America.

1. How crowded has it been in the past? A: Last year was bad. They had everything on the ice area, and a bunch of people in the stands waiting for Autographs. Not to mention the people in the locker room. I'd say about 2,000 people were there. 2. It starts at 11, but do doors open any earlier than that? A: No, they make you wait. 3. Does the Joe allow fans to line up outside to wait ahead of the doors opening? A: I assume they'd have no problem with that. I got there late last year but where would they put everyone if they didn't? 4. For the autographs, does each player have an individual line or do all of the players for a time frame just sit at one table and you just move down the line and get everyone's signature? A: Last year was odd. They had a table in the Zamboni area where two players would sit. They lined everybody up in a line that would wrap up into the stands. It didn't work very good and made for a lot of angry fans when they couldn't get an autograph. This year, as far as I can guess, they will be setting up multiple tables in the main walkway. They will rotate the players every hour or so. In other words, you are not guaranteed anything. 5. Will the souvenir stands be open to purchase items to have signed on top of what I bring with me? A: They weren't last year, and if they line people up in that area for auto's, they will probably be closed again. Hope that helped.

They're not real, don't trust anything that hasn't been released. They just arrested a bunch of people trying to sell these. (See above link) The Jets themselves claim their look is NOTHING like this one. So we wait and see...

Have you ever heard of Ed "Big Daddy" Roth creator of Rat Fink? It's a Eddie Giacomin mask drawn in the style of Rat Fink on a hot rod. Saw it myself don't like it... here is a link for those that don't know what I'm talking about. http://www.ratfink.com/

Shows what these guys know about being GM's... Terrible results and to top it off our Wings look awful. The second round looks like the 6th round in a fantasy draft. :thumbdown:

It's former Red Wing Shawn Burr #11! The top one is indeed Jimmy Carson, enjoy your autographed puck!

Wow the amount of cynicism in the Wings fan base is amazing. At the beginning of this thread, almost everybody was bashing him for coming back. Now that he's retiring its all, "Amazing career! Thanks for everything!" No wonder goalies have it rough here. Jeez. Well, I have always liked Ozzie and was upset when he was let go. Glad to see he went out as one of the top 10 goalies of all time! HHOF is where he belongs and to be honest... I think the #30 belongs up next to #19. He has been a corner stone in 3 of 4 cups, and almost got us another in '09. As a Wing he has outdone almost every goaltender that has came and gone. I can't wait to see what he does next and will miss him dearly. Congrats on an outstanding career Ozzie. :siren: :clap:

Way to go Howard he is the future and the future looks like cups! Now we need a defense in front of him and he will be a force in this sport.

If there was ever a team I don't want to win it's San Jose. They are a bunch of dirty divers and I hope Vancouver kills them in the Conference Finals. Tampa Vs. Vancouver for the win! And the Yzerbolts for the win as well...

Washington or Tampa. Either or. Vancouver is laughable, San Jose needs to stop, Nashville can suck eggs, Philadelphia are goons and Boston doesn't deserve it. I hope Washington finally gets it done though, they deserve it the way the play and getting Ovi that cup would be great.

Scary last 10 minutes. Watch out in Phoenix! I hate Shane Doan SOOOOoooooooOOOOOoooooo much...

It's JBL vs. Eddie Guerrero. It was gruesome, Eddie lost so much blood!

Not sure about this forum's view on violence but since it's hockey here you go.

Is it any wonder why the NHL isn't considered a top sport? Bad refs, and now bad replay officials. If it were up to me I would allow replay to the refs skating on the ice in the arena to make the judgment. That way they can see their own faults rather than letting some person however many miles away do it. Ah the good ol' hockey game, is the best game you can play! ... ugh.

Yeah the vid I watched was crap quality. Definitely looks like he got caught on the ice with the toe of his skate.

You're a jerk.

Watching the video it seems he has brittle ankles. Really, he barely moved and it just snapped. Either that or he turned just right to cause it. There is no way that check cause it is what I'm saying. I think the "Spaghetti Leg" Rafalski thread should have been this one.

Not good to say the least. I'm surprized the Canadian affiliates aren't saying that it's fitting since we took the playoffs from Toronto. Fair weather fans in Detroit per usual though. If you didn't support Jimmy then who do you support? From the sounds of this board almost everybody is saying were doomed with Joey in net. Sheesh, let's see what happens huh?

After watching the past game, I DEFINITELY don't want to play Nashville. They got our number this year.

Same as last year, 2nd round out. If we're lucky? Championship out. At least the way we are playing right now. They have done nothing defensively to make me think otherwise right now. They will ramp it up come playoffs sure, but they did the same for last year and got out of Phoenix with a little luck. San Jose killed us, and I think it'll happen again.

Every one of the Heritage Classic masks are kinda awful. This is the worst, and Kippers is kinda boring too. Winter Classic for the win I guess.

You're from long island, what's the talk on sports radio out there over this? Anybody give a damn? What is the fans opinion?
