    Getting sick of "Ovie's" goal celebration's

    Meh, he isn't taunting and he is having fun. I have no problem with it personally. Although I could see how it would get old if you see him playing everyday. But it's good to be emotional and motivate your team like he does.

    Sid has words with AO

    I'd rather have Crosby as my captain, then Zetterberg.

    Ty Conklin - 18th best goalie in the NHL?

    What more does Conklin have to do to win the respect of some of these fans? I mean the guy has played great and has had a rough time so far in the NHL, but I remember watching him with the Green Bay Gamblers, and this guy is the perfect goalie for the Red Wings style, he rarely loses compusure, has a strong techinque, and is extraordinarily calm. He is what made Osgood a great goalie for the wings back in the day. The wings' don't need to use money on a spectacular goalie when we can win with a consistent and "average"(using for a lack of a better word) goalie who doesn't mind watching his team rack up 50 shots and only stopping 13 in a game. I'm rooting for Osgood to return to his earlier confidence and swagger, but either way I feel why are in good hands.
  4. Really hoping we get Neil. Other then that I hope we don't do anything else.

    Leino or Helm

    Both. Two different styles, and considering the Wings are lacking in the physical/grit I would give the importance to the team edge to Helm, although Leino is a better talent.

    2/21 GDT: Red Wings 2 at Wild 5

    NO IT MUST BE THE RED WINGS ARE THE WORST TEAM EVER. THE SKY IS FALLING, THERE IS NO MORE OIL. OBAMA ISN'T CHANGING ANYTHING. I HATE MY LIFE.

    Faux Fax Falls Flat

    I believe you started it by calling him a dumbass, just because you disagree about who gets into a HOF. Seriously can't people have a civil discussion without name-calling especially about this not very relevant or serious of topic?

    Howard Recalled; Osgood told to "re-focus"

    Ouch. Just ouch.

    Faux Fax Falls Flat

    Agreed, the old debate whether someone's outside-the-game issues should be taken into account for HOF. In my opinion, as long as someone doesn't do something completely outrageous and immoral it shouldn't matter. Eh, we'll see what happens not like I have a say anyway haha.

    Howard Recalled; Osgood told to "re-focus"

    Agreed also should send down Zetterberg with him.

    Playoffs Dino Games G A P 141 73 45 118 Lemieux Games G A P 233 80 78 158 Eh pretty even imo. Edit: I don't think either of them should be left out of the hall, both were great impact players.

    Dino was a pioneering player that had a gigantic influence on the game. Plus his statistics are much better then claudes' if memory serves me at all.

    2/21 GDT: Red Wings 2 at Wild 5

    It's safe to say you aren't a budding and brilliant poster with a extraordinary arsenal of hockey intelligence. That said, obviously he isn't impressive, but you have to give people chances, especially with how Osgood has played. You don't know what you have unless you use it.

    Congratulations Kopy!

    Kopy actually played well tonight, let's up he can keep progressing and gaining confidence.

    2/21 GDT: Red Wings 2 at Wild 5

    5- and that one number shaped like an egg. Helm with one, hossa with a hattie, and liddy with one.

    Looking ahead to the 1st round

    So Marleau can score on the leagues worse goalie? But yeah, trying to predict the playoffs is a very hard thing to do, but I'm not looking forward to facing San Jose, or Calgary for some reason I just don't feel 100% confident vs. them.

    2/20 GDT: Anaheim Ducks at Red Wings

    Wings 4-0 Hossa with 2 goals and 2 fighting majors. Dats with a goal and assist Lidstrom with a PP goal. Zets-hud-flip-raffy all with an assist.

    Howard Recalled; Osgood told to "re-focus"

    Well, let's hope this is good for two reasons. 1. Howard can impress us and finally show us that he could reach his potential. 2. We can get Osgood on track for the playoffs.

    Kenny, Get an Enforcer Now!

    I want Neil, not because you need an enforcer to win games. But because it's exciting, and helps revenue and fan interest. Also he would be significantly better then any 4th liner on the squad currently. No doubt the wings can win the cup either way, I just feel that we could be more "exciting" team for some fans out there.

    Big Montreal Scandal...

    Albany River Rats' bus crashes in MA

    Luckily it seems they just suffered minor injuries. Still a scary story though. =(

    Big Montreal Scandal...

    So I guess several Montreal players heard a rumor of Tomas Kopecky being traded to their team. And in a mindless moment of frusteration had sex with teenagers and spent their entire salary on blow.

    Big Montreal Scandal...

    More rumors from other boards. "latest from insiders in the media (still just rumors at this point but we'll be fixed tomorrow): - habs brass in meetings since 8pm tonight - team meeting scheduled at midnight or whenever they arrive - bettman en route for montreal - police waiting for the players at the airport to arrest 3 (allegations rape & drugs) - probable end of the career of the 3" not sure who the "3" are. Price is one of them I'm pretty sure though. Whatever it is, it isn't going to be good

    Kenny, Get an Enforcer Now!

    I completely agree. I can't wait to see Hudler kick the s*** out of Parros.
