    Tollefsen Clears Waivers

    So therefore he will suck forever...

    Tollefsen Clears Waivers

    Agreed. I'd much rather have an 'up to speed' Tollefson over Janik. He brings a couple elements Janik doesn't possess and he's had a fair amount of NHL experience.

    Leino to Flyers for Tollefsen and a 5th Rounder

    If he somehow, by the stroke of Satan, ends up in Chicago... I may projectile vomit.

    Valtteri Filppula appreciation

    I'm with ya on Maltby. I still think he has that certain 'something' to be an effective player in the playoffs.

    IF the Wings DON'T Make the Playoffs

    I say hire Ken Hitchcock for the remainder of the season.

    Valtteri Filppula appreciation

    Uhhh... his point was that he also has players that he has an irrational fondness for. We all do.

    Valtteri Filppula appreciation

    Flip is an outstanding third line center... but only a serviceable second line center. Not hating. His flashes of brilliance are to few and to far in between.

    IF the Wings DON'T Make the Playoffs

    What do you expect? 90% of these people have no idea what it's like to not be leading the conference. Someone took their blanky.

    IF the Wings DON'T Make the Playoffs

    "Mike, the team is really playing poorly... how do you explain that?" "It's real simple Pierre... I told the guys that we are 2 points out of a playoff spot before the Olympic break. The season is over and I won't tolerate total failure. I expect epic failure on a massive level. I want our guys to embarrass themselves. I think if we can do that, we can look at ourselves in the mirror." Get real. This isn't college.

    And if they don't, hopefully they put up a fight till the end. Won't be the end of the world. Aa a matter of fact, I'll be mildly relieved that the players will get a nice long rest and the coaching staff will have a nice long summer to re-tool and get things back on track.

    2/6 GDT: Red Wings 3 at Kings 4

    My girlfriend and I would like to thank Outsider... We've been singing that awful Karate Kid song all day now... CURSE YOU OUTSIDER!

    Does Holland have the courage to tank this team?

    This thread confuses me. Is there a faction of fans calling for the team to tank? I haven't noticed anyone discussing this.

    IF the Wings DON'T Make the Playoffs

    Even if we do make it, the same troop of people will start the "We barely made it, therefore, we will not make it past the first round" Followed by: "We got lucky in the first round, we won't make it past the second round." Rinse and repeat until Lidstrom lifts the Cup... then those same people will be hanging off his bean bag.

    Return of Franzen does not guarantee rise of the Wings

    Also... Eating a lot of beans will make you fart. Thanks for stating the obvious.

    IF the Wings DON'T Make the Playoffs

    I'm honestly starting to think that many, many Wings fans have no idea what it feels like to be in an honest to goodness playoff hunt. One of the few times in life when ignorance isn't bliss. We're not even at the trade deadline and people are talking like the season is over. What a sorry bunch of sacks.

    Sorry clutch... this is the new winner. By a landslide. Nicely done.

    I was thinking of something a little more upbeat... like perhaps the subtle, soothing sounds of Eye of the Tiger in the background.

    Cherry ripping Lidstrom on Coach's Corner

    Cherry said something stupid, trolled a TV audience and slammed a euro? Sounds like business as usual.

    2/6 GDT: Red Wings 3 at Kings 4

    The exodus of over the hill, past their prime players has brought this franchise to its knees during a retooling year. Hehe. Ok.

    He has implied that he gets his information from drunk people. I would take anything he says with a grain of salt. Apparently, drunk pencil pushers have their finger on the pulse of the Red Wings. Lol.

    Right... Stevie was forced out of the Wings organization and his feelings were so hurt that he accepted a job in the front office. Peddle your swill gathered from drunk people somewhere else please.

    My nights sleep doesn't hinge on the Wings performance. Unlike you, obviously. I can pretty much take your entire, melodramatic diatribe on the Wings situation and sum it up in one sentence: Lidstrom sucks as a captain. That's what it sounds like you are saying. Especially if Yzerman's absence is really the root of the problem, as you claim to have heard from drunk people.
