No one knows yet. Sheesh. Ask a week before the playoffs start.

Come on, admit it, all you Chris Neal lovers out there want him here because you wanna see a few more scraps. Don't ya? It's ok, just say it.

He may / may not be the BEST player in the league, but he IS the best SCORER in the league, and. in my opinion, one of the top 3 most exciting players to watch on the ice.

Go back and watch the games from the playoffs last year and realize this is pretty much the same team with the addition of Hossa. Just....go ahead and do it.

Maybe you hate it because you see him doing it SO often!

Do Canadian gangs wear special tuques?

I'm laughing out loud for the first time on this board. Most of the time it gives me a headache.

I can top it, but I won't.

That sounds like that "SCANDAL" where some Russian player (For some reason I want to say Bure)'s family was still in Russia and he was having money extorted from him by the Russian Mob to keep them "safe".

He might have been in a funk all year because he was trying to get his partying teammates to work hard and they just wanted to party.

Actually some of the posts over there were hinting at something much bigger than drug use. More illegal stuff. Like a "ring".

Which one of them has the most fighting majors? Take that guy. Because we need an enforcer here. (sarcasm)

Parros played such a huge role for Anaheim in their cup run. (yes, sarcasm) You need someone who can hang with the Wings in terms of speed, puckhandling and scoring. And those players can be counted on one hand and the teams that have them are not letting them go. Good luck with that.

Sounds like they don't know anything either, but I will be checking back there at 2AM, that's for sure.

What's the deal with the picture of you in full goalie gear? (from WAY back at practice one day, methinks)

I REALLY hope he does it as I have him on my fantasy team.

Maybe they were on the power play so much last night that Conks didn't see half the shots he would have normally?

They also sent down Sergei Kostystin. I can only imagine what kind of BS is going on in that locker room. From that tremendous All-Star performance to THIS? What a joke. This guy has all the skills in the world and he just doesn't want it that badly. He reminds me a lot of Feds. You know he could take over any game he wanted to, just a matter of him WANTING TO. AND HE IS THEIR CAPTAIN!! Captain of a sinking ship.

Try River City Sports. They are always good with whatever stuff I need. Http://www.rivercitysports.com

Wow, if those numbers above are correct, there are a lot of overpaid players in the NHL.

Have fun over there. Buh-bye.

I like it! A lot!

I predict the Wild put the Wings to sleep but they manage to hang on for a 2-1 win. Goals: Datsyuk and Lidstrom on a Power Play. Wild Goal: Koivu

'Cause he sucks.

Maybe it is because the "RedWings" as a TEAM emphasize the TEAM and not the PLAYER. Everything they do is geared around the team concept. Crosby was a "phenom" when he was a kid, Canadians knew about him LONG before the draft. When he was drafted, it was the Crosby sweepstakes. They invested a lot in him and had to give him a title, all that marketing crap machinery started rolling. Pavel proves it on the ice. He is a funny, enjoyable personality that he might be struggling with being able to translate in English. Give him a few years.
