    yeah Holland seems to see players in a different light once they put on a Wings sweater, and lately it's really starting to hurt the club- bringing back Sammy, Quincey aren't looking like wise moves so far, esp. Quincey and as far as making a big trade to acquire a stud d-man, well, you gotta give something good to get something good and if Holland is unwilling to part with any quality players/picks/prospects to get one, then we're gonna be stuck with what we have

    so why is Emmerton still playing and not Nyquist? did they see his jersey # and think that Mac was back?

    maybe that's the problem tonight, everyone ate at Colo's mom's house and filled up on too much pasta

    LOL that seems like a pretty tall order for this squad

    I hope so, but Babs has been slow to make changes in the past, hope he realizes we don't have time for his stubborness

    yeah I wonder why on earth he hasn't calmed down by now and just started playing, he's making rookie-level mistakes out there way too much

    man we're looking a lot like we did down the stretch last year did someone forget to tell 'em there's no pre-season and that these games count?

    to say the ice is tilted against us right now is a vast understatement

    it also bothers me that White wears #18, I keep thinking, "Why are they playing Maltby on defense?"

    hope the Wings can start off with a bang, will be tough in St. Louis though Mule should be more effective, being on the 2nd line means he won't have to deal with the other team's top d-pairing excited to see what Brunner and Smith can bring to the table Wings win in shoot-out, 4-3 Zetterberg, Datsyuk, Sammy, and Quincey

    Interesting Article about Fedorov & Yzerman

    I remember hearing about this at some point, but I was told it was Vladdy yelling at him to get back out there lest he give Russians a bad name; could have been a different year I guess cool story, though God I miss hockey & the Wings

    White as home jerseys or road jerseys?

    Definitely should go back to white jerseys at home, that's how it was when I first started watching in the '90s it still bothers me that they switched after the last lockout plus I think the red sweaters are more intimidating on the road I wonder if the players have a preference?

    Who is the Best Russian the Wings Have Ever Had?

    I'm a bit biased since Fedorov is my all-time fave, but imho in his prime he was always the best overall player on the ice; if Pavel had played in the early-mid '90s he may have had similar numbers, but there's no way he matches up to Fed's speed and skating ability, though Pavel is probably a better stick-handler and has a stronger work ethic

    2012 Lockout Watch

    well here we are again I hope the NHLPA gets the idea out of their heads that they'll actually 'win' the lockout, the owners will get pretty much what they want in the end, that's what happened last time and it will happen again all the players are really doing is prolonging the inevitable and wasting possibly a whole year of their careers in the process it's a sad situation, but the rich will always lose out to the even richer

    Where Do You Rank Our Defense?

    yeah even with Covo on board it's looking like a middle of the pack D, but like wings_fanatic posted earlier having Renney could make a difference and with some luck and if they don't get too banged up they have the potential to finish 10th to 15th of course, all of this is moot until training camp/the season actually starts....
