GDT 1/22 GDT : Blackhawks 4 at Red Wings 5 (SO)
AtomicPunk replied to Hockeytown0001's topic in General
It's a good thing we kept that veteran leadership instead of giving the kids the spots they earned. -

Mike Babcock "We're competing real hard...let's keep doing what we/re doing and just complete", He really said that. -

Big mistake not keeping Hossa. I don't care what anyone says. And Cleary wearing the A tonight made me laugh out loud. This team has become a bit of a joke. They are joking, right? -
Just think of where we might be if we hadn't resigned Cleary!
-
Are they getting booed on home ice? They deserve it right now.
-
Wow....this game (and this team) has no pulse right now...what a snoozer. Apathy is worse than anything...and if fans don't see something soon, the Joe will be looking a little empty. It already is, from the looks of this game..
-
But hey, super smart move getting Cleary back! Waive all the other guys but keep his lame ass. I am STILL scratching my head about that one. I thought this guy was some kind of genius or something....
-
Thought : Sit Jimmy for the next shootout. Put in the guy on the bench, in this day and age you need to be good at shootouts. Just have him practice shootout goals all day at practice. I don't know, it would certainly be dramatic. Gotta try something, right? And maybe sign a few players who are good at shootouts? Not the same old re-treads. It's a sickening feeling to be not getting any of these points.

This is a guy I've always wanted to see on the Wings. Young, had a bit of injury history of late, but works hard and put up points. I don't like his new deal, but I would have liked to see him come here instead of Chicago. Kenny missed on that one.
-
I stopped reading at "for something good". How can you evaluate that trade?
-
I was at the game where he "died" on the ice for a few seconds. SCARY. Plus he wore my same number 44. Did not hate him. sorry to see how his career ended.
-
I see that the Minnesota North Stars lost to Florida. I had to look really close to see it was DALLAS dressed up like the North Stars. Also, Scott Gomez got a goal in Game 1. So there, Montreal fans. He's got ONE.
-
By Game 82 he will be coaching from a hospital room ala Major League.
-
We all knew it was going to come down to this when they re-signed Cleary and didn't buy out / waive / trade some of the rust. But fear not, Red Wing Fans! The Sammy Experiment should be over by the end of the week and he will be in the place he loves best, ice packs, Sportscreme, theraputic massages, and a totally undeserved paycheck.

Jensen out till December/January after fight with Tyler Bertuzzi

DId this happen in the NHL? No? Really? Then I don't care. Let me know when the kids make it to the bigs. -
I'm surprised ESPN even DID this story.
-
If you put Eaves on a line with Datsyuk or Zetterberg, and on the power play, and had him stand in front of the net and had pucks glance off him. or touch the puck before one of them scored, he would have more points than Cleary.

Signed Cleary re-signs with Detroit, 1 year, $1.75m deal
AtomicPunk replied to wingedominance13's topic in General
I've thought about this now for a few days and I still think this was a remarkably dumb move. -
When Franzen was signed to this big multi-year deal...I think the Wings and the fans thought he would produce at a Hossa-like level. I think it's safe to say he hasn't.
-
I'm not believing anything that's said until I start seeing game day rosters in games that actually count. Until then, it's all just PR.

Flames goalie Miikka Kiprusoff makes it official: He's retiring.
AtomicPunk replied to cusimano_brothers's topic in General
I'm all about the "family first" thing, and he wouldn't have had to uproot anything, players all the time live out of a hotel room for a month or so when they get traded at the deadline. -
At least they are twins, it was REALLY weird when Selanne and Kariya did it.

AtomicPunk replied to cusimano_brothers's topic in General
I was gonna say Mike Vernon also. He got a ring there and had 260 or so wins, so that would kind of make HIM their best goalie, one would think. I was kind of joking about him being a quitter. But he sure could have gotten them a good player if he allowed himself to be traded to a contender and THEN retired once the season was over. -
Where have you seen this speculation, and who speculated it?

AtomicPunk replied to wingedominance13's topic in General
My problem is that we don't seem to identify the up-and-coming stars to sign as free agents BEFORE they become stars. We seem to now get players after they have peaked and get the end of the career. I'm cool with Alfredsson since it is a one year deal and watching him last year, he still was a good player. But we need to target those 25-27 year olds and let them become stars HERE.
