Hes a great coach and does the subtle and not so subtle things to inspire, look at what he said in the paragraph about Jimmy "if he can put 18 good seasons together in a row, then you're like (Chris Osgood) ... the real ones." hes inspiring and challenging Jimmy to play at his top level, while also throwing something in to show his respect and belief in Ozzy. The other thing that stood out to me was his comment about Modano "He's going to like getting the puck on his tape from good players" I'm pumped for the season

Each year I allow a clean slate, and for me, this title is earned not given, so only time will tell

possibly the best quote ever to grace this forum.

pretty sure he was kidding

it seems surprising, but when you think about it, it makes perfect sense. it makes up for their other games that dont fill. in 8 or 9 years of going to 2 wings games a year, ive yet to see it not sellout for each one. ive been to other "variable price" teams, vancouver was sold out, capitals was near sellout.

phoenix has been doing this for years, we pay extra every time we drive up to see the wings.

it would be a disgrace to that song if mccartney was playing it

which fight are you referring to?

that was the day Howard became a Red Wing

Echo, and everyone else in this thread, I am with you. I've felt this way since the 3rd period rang in game 5 of our series vs the Sharks, and will continue to feel it until the puck drops on our first preseason game. Even playing hockey on Saturdays cannot subdue this torment.

Nah a one year stint means nothing to me. I reserve jerseys for long term players.

something about this im just not feeling. if he succeeds i will eat my crow, but this just doesnt seem right for some reason.

go lesnar go lesnar

i thought larsson said he wanted to go back to europe?

of course the other staples dont need to be mentioned, but i only care that we keep helm and eaves, and though it doesnt look bright, miller. the life they breathed into the PK was tremendous. i definitely am not saying lidstrom doesnt deserve it, but 5mil wouldve looked so much better than 6mil.

i havent skimmed through the rest of this, but why would they sign marleau for that amount of money? that seems a little over the top to me

ah the age old roofa vs oofa

we'll just be called for jealousy, but this 100% true. this just in..... lidstromboli and tomatoetownwingsfan phoned in by bettman and mario for emergency fluffing of crosby

no doubt about ovechkin and semin, and halak has been beast, but gionta has more points than malkin and crosby combined, based on the graphic vs showed. a choke is a choke. pittsburgh failed.

also crosby and malkin choked

look at cooke attacking gills stitched up leg

HAHAHA Shorty for the habs. 4-0

f*** YEAH 3-0 habs, cammalleri

haha look at sid cry, he gets sticklifted then crashes into the crease and expects a penalty
