i think he is important, ever since i saw kronwall in his first game for detroit he had a spark that i enjoyed. i think we dont have any d right now with the spark, its just a nice energy that players bring, nice creativity, and we are missing that from the d without kronwall

i saw it in 2002, for some reason they brought it to my local arena (arctic edge in canton), it was when i was first learning the game so it was nice

no its not bad, malkin was a young player once too, even gaborik was a mediocre player before he was a superstar. u r not giving him a chance, have faith in tommy

okay where did my cool title go, ne wway it doesnt matter sometimes you just need to give a guy a chance, i mean malkin wasnt ready his first two years, he bombed in the playoffs and he was a noob the first few years but now he is a quality player. tatar has the mind of a nhl player just let him blossom into a flower

eavesy in the house

i think we should throw him into the mix, thats what most bad clubs do when they need help. we are kind of mediocre right now we are not as desperate as some clubs with needing players but why not give him a try

okay be quiet, you just criticised me you havent even proven a point, you just bring up a stupid statistic and you think you have me beat eh? alright wanker well see who actually cares about the wingws okay first of all most of the games we win we cannot even score 3 goals so howard needs to be a legend, which he is, and the offense is always bad. its not a statistic its a reality, and its a confidence problem, nobody gets confident from watching datsyuk beat every time. we need a young skilled agressive player who can just check people and get everyone excited and can fight and score goals. no one is agressive and proud enough on the wings, and we are too old our youngest players are in their mid-20s which is a feckin joke

do you guys even watch the wings, ozzie lets in 50% of his goals through the legs, howard is only beat when the defence does a bad job, he never gives up easy and i have never seen him beat 1 v 1, also he never sulks around like ozzie, he gets angry and motivated and it only improves him. the gap between ozzie and howard is becoming a huge valley, howard is mentally tougher and he has proved he is a good keeper, not just some hot kid. also ozzie is an old fart and hopefully we can get rid of him, sawchuck deserves his detroit records

ive seen datsyuk do a similar move in the russian league so its not new, he trains it

yes it is athletic club bilbao it would be good for the north, minnesota, michigan, new york, maybe massachusetts and some other new england states would be fine but texas would be awful. brian leetch would have to come out of retirement for the stars

in the spanish premier soccer league, there is a team that only signs players from their region. the population of the region is about 2 million. in spain if you finish in the bottom three of the league you are relegated to a lower league, and this club has never been relegated in the history of their league which is almost 100 years. basically they have never been bad. this is proof that any club if they put effort in can be great. also this club has very passionate support, because the players are local and most were raised by the club. imagine how passioante the support would be for home grown players

okay the ozzie argument is dead, howard made some world class saves that ozzie is not able to do, he is the legend

april in the d, focus on golfing this year

pavels problems are all mental, i think he is just uncomfortable. hopefully he will overcome these battles and become confident again

okay the red wings are really bad now, the problem is datsyuk and z are not inspiring confidence. we need to build around howard he is clearly the future of the club. howard is gonna be a legend, forget ozzie trying to be sawchuck

polish_gamer i have cod world at war, modern warfare 2, also i have fifa 10 and nhl 10

okay let me explain for everyone y howie is better. the goals he let's in r tougher to score and Ozzie let's in loads of softies. I have played hockey and a good goalie who makes the saves he should gives playas way more confidence. ozzies five hole sucks, half his goals r through the fivehole. he's a bloody joke

do any of you guys agree that the nhl is maybe too big? most other hockey leagues have 20 teams or less, i mean the only reason the league is big is for marketing purposes but i think if the nhl was 20 teams if would be more fun, or maybe 24. there are some teams in the south who never have fans and they r actually decent clubs, like atlanta has a good team and their arena is nearly always empty, its awful. also we never even play teams in the east, i want to play new york and montreal, we never play them. i think it would just be more fun for everyone. i think it would make the games more of a personal battle between coaches and players if we saw eachother more, i mean imagine shaun avery in detroit it would be fun i really liked him when we played new york, it would get fans excited to see him fighting our players (if we had a decent fighter)

americans r always cringing at violence in sports and yet we r one of the only countries where average people can own guns its about defending your honour and pride and in hockey it is a very noble fight, even when players hate eachother every hockey fan knows they respect eachother so much. i mean u see mccarty and laraques and guys like that and they are harmless in real life, wouldnt hurt a fly. even tho they dont fight as much in europe nobody will ever outlaw it unless canada and the nhl goes against it.

omg that was dreadful, not even under a pad was the puck. i cant believe they would pick crosby over the most historic club in the league, montreal fans must feel terrible enough with their average club but i feel bad

we need him

datsyuk for shea weber

datsyuk for shea weber

howard has been great and i think he could be the rookie of the year candidate with tavares

datsyuk has no parents though, so if he loses his wife who does he have? plus z is his best friend and im sure he would be sad if they were apart and im sure z is trying to help him
