    Core Pt.2

    Good grief. People bitching about Canadian TV talking about Canadian teams. Vancouver does have a great core. So does Chicago. If Vancouver pays as much attention to the rest of the team like Chicago did....well we know how their year has gone.

    3/11 GDT: Oilers 1 at Red Wings 2 (OT)

    I'm with this guy. I want to get on a teat as well. Nice win men. Sometimes you lose the ones you should win and then you have games like this.

    2/28 GDT: Red Wings 7 at Kings 4

    I see he was waiting at home for the arrival of a little Franzen. Congrats Mule, I see the wife couldn't guard her crease against your slapshot either .

    Bettman threatens Edmonton.

    The world needs more Bill Davidsons. Detroit can't or won't do what's needed for the Pistons so he just says "f*** it, I'll build my own arena in Auburn Hills." No taxpayers money, no bonds, just his cash. Opened in 88' and is still a great place to watch an event.

    ESPN considers Lidstrom the "Perfect Human"

    I've often wondered what I did to have the great fortune to watch some of the greatest suit up for Detroit teams, nothing probably but what a ride. Thanks to Nick for taking me along on the hockey part.

    The Big Chill

    They were going to switch at the 10min mark but BOTH coaches vetoed the idea. I have no idea why, the announcer said both coaches wanted to keep playing to the same end the whole period. That makes me think the wind was less a factor than anyone thought I wish they would have let the Wings and Habs use the ice Friday night, what a waste to go through so much trouble for the setup then only play one game on it. Congrats to Michigan on the win. Go Blue.

    Retire Osgood's #30?

    I'd say it's up to Hall of Fame voters. I'm not a hater but IMO no HHoF no 30 in the rafters.

    Pat Burns has died

    Condolences to the Burns family. Hockey lost a great one. I can only hope the HHoF feels shame for not giving Pat Burns his due before he hit the dirt. Shame on them.

    Banging on the glass at the Joe illegal?

    That's not a pile of broken glass. That's E-Bay souvenirs material. Turn those lemons into lemonade.

    Fleury pursuing charges against Graham James

    A bullet isn't much to pay, hell send me the bill. I'll buy 2 in case you get a shaky hand on the gun.

    Winter Classic Jersey Revealed

    That made think of how great that HBO thingy would have been about ten years ago with DET/AVS :starwars:

    Wings to Eastern Conference Someday?

    The earlier starting times would be great but I'm not sure that's a fair trade off for the extra Crosby threads.

    I Just Won Tickets on The Ticket!

    I'm surprised they took the time to talk hockey. Congrats on your win though.

    New Jersey's situation about to explode

    Hooking up with her would not be a healthy scratch.

    Teemu Selanne whining

    No s***. I clicked the link expecting to see a bitchfest of Duck fans and it's a Flames board. I read a few "OMGZ Kronwall always leaves his feet" complaints. Then it started drifting into "Holmstrom nevers get called for having his ass in our goalie's face" complaints. Guess they are still butthurt from losing to us the game before.

    Are hockey hits harder than football hits?

    Football is much more violent than hockey. The day a hockey player can fold his arms back, launch himself from his feet and lead with his helmet to the head area then it's like football. Hockey players are a tough breed but the beating they take doesn't compare to a football player. You have to remember the NFL went through a s*** storm last week so most players are trying to put a better spin on the hitting.

    Cheerleaders for Canadian NHL team a first

    Excuse me while I go interact with what they just promoted.

    Cheerleaders for Canadian NHL team a first

    What a wonder bra looks like: At least to me anyways.

    Cheerleaders for Canadian NHL team a first

    I could agree with that even though I think men look ridiculous in crotchless panties.

    5 reasons to Love/Hate the Red Wings

    The tears of the haters sustain me. Their anguish is like a cool drink on a sweltering day. They are the Charlie Brown to our Lucy, we'll always keep pulling the football away while they continue thinking the next time will be different.

    Rypien suspended 6 games

    Legally he is not a kid but I'm old and everyone is a kid to me.

    Rypien suspended 6 games

    Grabbing the kid is assault. Melrose is with you on the suspension though. He even goes so far as to blame the building. http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=5707433&categoryid=2459791

    10/19 GDT

    I'd be stunned if he gets less than 10 games. Maybe if the kid tossed something at him or actually touched him but just for clapping and mouthing off he's toast.

    Ducks fans cry foul for dirty hit

    Ha, first thing I thought too. Good call.
