    Mike Green scores......AGAIN!

    A lot of people who vote are hanging on this guys sack because of the way he scores goals. Wouldn't suprise me a bit if he get the Norris. The way he scores does skew his +/- numbers a bit don't you think.

    Martin Brodeur: Great Goalie, Questionable Morals

    Lighten up a tad. Given his track record around here I expected him to say Osgood recommended the sis-in-law as a nanny. That had to be tough to pass up a shot at Ozzy. ;)

    Tootoo gets his ass handed to him.

    Wouldn't that be a Clutterbuck

    Martin Brodeur: Great Goalie, Questionable Morals

    Charles Barkley was right. He said role models should be parents/teachers and the like. I think we tend to mix up hero and idol. To me Barkley can be an idol, as for heros I'll stick to cops and fireman and their like. C'mon, the TV show is called "American Idol" not "American Hero". When Brodeur cheated he probably didn't expect to get caught, doesn't make it right but people are people and cheatings been going on since people been here. Respect Brodeur as a hockey player. If you chose to find out what he is like off the ice don't be suprised to find out he isn't perfect. Unlike all of us moralizers here.

    Crosby the tough guy

    Because they win, oh, also there is a man love/hate thing there. You know like back in 3rd grade when you whacked the girl you liked on the shoulder. Hating is the first step to loving. Wait till 6th grade then you'll see how much he luvs him some Wings.
  7. Ya know when your panties bunch up like that it only takes a sec to unbunch em. Then you don't have to be a dick towards other people. Oh yeah, congrats Drapes. Nice run we got for a buck.

    Brodeur passes Patrick Roy

    And Sawchuck basically played w/o pads, by todays standards, and Brodeur will pass him in shutouts too. The game changes but when Brodeur breaks both records they will be very much valid.

    3/12 GDT: Flames 6 at Red Wings 5 (SO)

    We scored but that was some great PK hockey there.

    Is Franzen worth 4 Mill?

    +1 Why waste my time typing when this is point on. If we can't sign him he'll get 4 mil/per easy, if he has another strong playoff run then it's a no brainer.

    Greatest Poll ever

    OK, I went to that link and it shows this Ultimate so and so is from San Jose. The defense(pun intended) rests.
  13. It is a futile discussion, hindsight is 20/20, Osgood nearly won the Conn Smythe last year. Why for heavens sake would we look at getting a goalie? I was going to leave it alone and let you have your fun till you brought up attendence.....as someone who nearly lost their team to lack of support shame on you. Every fan w/o solid points seem to bring up attendence. It's like you think because the Joe doesn't sell out every night it validates your arguments.

    CBS Disrespects Hockey

    Just close the thread. It can only get worse from here on out.

    CBS Disrespects Hockey

    If you want to get angry over the hockey jab fine, but to suggest baseball is not a sport is a tad bit off. Gin Rummy is a game.

    Why no word on Hossa or Franzen?

    Not me, I surf the webs commando

    Ovechkin Hurt!

    Gotta say I'm a bit disappointed. I was hoping he hurt himself celebrating a practice goal. Edited to add: /saracasm

    Quite a Perfect Game!

    WOW, what a twit. It always amazes me that the people who yell the loudest are the ones who need yelled down the mostest.

    Don Cherry approves

    I didn't even know they had paraplegic hockey. The USA ran the Canadian goalie so good for them sticking up for him, but I gotta wonder how hard it is to stop once you got momentum up. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=5a5_1236056307 None of that sissy Euro hockey here.

    Did no one else watch the game last night?

    The offense stunk. The defense stunk. The goalies stunk. The coaches stunk. The skate sharpener stunk. Hell Hossa probably pissed on the toilet seat that night. We've beat on Nash. like a drum since they joined. We deserved everything they dished out.

    Red Wings fans

    If you like fans that sit at the game I suggest a football game in Ann Arbor.

    Another reason why this organization...

    And to think many call the Wings the "evil empire". The Red Wings are an empire but evil they are not. Many things to warm the heart at the end of winter in that story. I especially like how when he called to thank the Wings he got the big guy on the phone. :hockeysmile:

    Chris Osgood breaks silence: 'I feel great'

    This is company line speech writing 101. Do you expect him to say he put a couch in the dressing room to lay on and talk to a psychiatrist between periods? I think a lot of his playoff success last year was because he had a backup goalie excuse if we lost. It takes a lot of pressure off if your not expected to win it.

    Chelios lays into Lemiuex

    so would Drapes
