    Who's Out? Who's In?

    Afinogenov could be had for picks, and that would work out well for the Wings in the long-run. We have plenty of prospects coming that we can afford to get rid of two or three picks and Lilja for him. I agree, Kozlov is too expensive to even consider. He would be a terrible pick up.

    Lilja and picks for Afinogenov. You heard it here first.

    Will Mule Impress or Depress

    Having been at the practice in LA on Friday, his stick work was looking good. His skating and endurance are lagging behind, but what do you expect from a guy that hasn't been able to skate much for the last 5 months? I'd say he comes short of a lot of people's expectations because they're expecting him to come back and score a hat trick every game, but others that aren't expecting much should be surprised.

    Lidstrom. Not even a contest.

    Valtteri Filppula appreciation

    Couldn't agree with you more.
  7. Getzlaf, Getzlaf, and Getzlaf. The guy is a f*cking beast.

    February Schedule Wallpaper Now Available!

    The 1680x1050 should look fine. I use it on my 23" Apple Cinema Display; the only thing that lacks decent resolution is Jimmy himself, but that's more because of the photograph used, not Matt's graphics work. Making more work for Matt when it's pretty superfluous is kinda silly, when he's already doing a lot by just making these.

    The Official Is Val Filppula Overpaid Poll

    HES NOT A 3 PPG PLAYER, OBVIOUSLY WE'RE OVERPAYING HIM Wait, how many points did Datsyuk have? Lidstrom? Oh yeah, less than Fil. My bad.

    Trade Draper

    Of course he does, you're seeing him on TV.

    Trade Draper

    Awesome idea. Maybe we can send him to Chicago or Pittsburgh? Yeah, why are we not making threads about Franzen?! I haven't even noticed the guy once since that Chicago game, and that was the third game of the season!

    Trade Draper

    We'd still have his salary left on the books, though, so personally I'd rather he kept playing as long as we're going to be paying him.
  14. Theophany

    Trade Draper

    Yep, I realize that. But Maltby and Draper have both been playing on the PK just as much as Miller, Eaves, and Helm have been, so your point doesn't make sense.
  15. Theophany

    Trade Draper

    Er yeah, look at our record on the PK. We were #1 in the league through December, and probably top 5 in January. Man, those guys are terrible!

    The "Is Rafalski Overpaid" Poll

    This post says it all, as far as I'm concerned. Rafalski has been playing very well this season; not up to what he's done in the past, but it's hard to do that when you're past your prime.

    The Official Is Val Filppula Overpaid Poll

    Yes, more than three times the money Filppula has made. By points alone, he's lived up to his contract (compare his points per million dollars to Datsyuk, Zetterberg, Ovie, etc). He's also an extremely valuable role player on defense though, providing needed defensive depth to anchor the second or third line, depending on where Zetterberg is playing. He may never be a first line player, but he's not making $6M a year like Datsyuk is, either.

    The Official Is Val Filppula Overpaid Poll

    Your argument is not logical; otherwise, paying Ovechkin was a terrible move on the part of the Caps.
  19. Now we just need Franzen to come back a game early so that I can see him play live on Saturday!

    LA Wings Practice - Toyota Sports Center

    Oh hey, I may actually go! (I'm flying down to LA on Thursday)

    Team MVP

    Howard, followed shortly thereafter by Lidstrom, who—despite age—has been near perfect lately.

    NHL Shop Officially Customizing Shirts

    They've had this for a while. Still not doing roster players, too. That makes me sad.

    Val Filppula

    Forward, or player? Lidstrom is highest point per game in the time frame you're talking about, I think. Unless Datsyuk has dropped, I'd think he'd be third.

    Shootouts

    Put Lidstrom in on the shootout, Ã la Zdeno Chara. Just have him rip a shot from like 10 feet away.

    Dear Babs:

    Seriously, just stop with your "hockey ideas". They're not good. You're batting 1.000 with terrible ones. Helm in on a 4-on-3? Three forwards low cycling on a 4-on-3 when you have two of the best point shots in the league on your team?
