    AZ Red Wings Practice

    I know there are guys who keep their stronger hand as the lower hand to give a better shot or something. But I think it's meant that if you grab an item (hockey stick for example) you grab it with your better hand and from the end of the stick. Then you support it with your weaker hand. I mean isn't it kinda easier to hold the stick with your better hand when your skating fast or using your "active" stick to give the opponent some pressure as you usually only have one hand holding the stick?

    Sad story...

    I've said it before and I say it again: hockey is just a game. Wouldn't be too surprised if some fan out there tries to kill a opposite team player because he scores the winning goal or something like that.

    Report: Hudler released from Moscow Dynamo

    You seriously underrate him, if you think a guy who put up 57 points isn't top6 material. And he even got most of them playing in the 3rd line. There were 69 guys who had more than 57 points last season and there are 180 (6x30) top6 forwards in the league. Hudler would have been in the first line in some teams as there were about 30 guys behind him who were still considered as 1st line forwards (3x30=90).He gets to play with better linemates and in a bigger role next season so I say anything can happen. As I said before, it doesn't matter how you get your points. Hudler is easily one of the better top6 forwards in the league and could still be on the 1st line in some teams. That's a proven fact when looking at the point production.

    WCQF Game 5 GDT: Red Wings 4 at Coyotes 1

    But it's just so different when it's live. It almost feels like you can help the team by cheering.

    WCQF Game 5 GDT: Red Wings 4 at Coyotes 1

    Okay. I never watch any sports if it's not live. Either I watch it live or don't watch at all and just check the highlights the next morning. It just feels so weird to watch the whole game replayed - even if you don't know the results - because you can't "live in the game".

    #7 Philadelphia knocks out #2 New Jersey

    Speaking of overrating Brodeur. Have you guys watched any Devils games with the Devils feed? I don't know what's the name of the commentator there (Chico maybe?) but after EVERY goal the Devils allow he's trying to explain why Brodeur had no chance on that one. It's just so ridiculous to listen as he always blames the defenders or the luck or just praises how the shot was the best he has seen. Brodeur makes no mistakes, I guess.

    Prospective 2010-11 Red Wings Roster

    That guy actually played in the Finnish league few years ago. Never thought back then that he would ever play in the NHL, not to mention being an enforcer. But I guess he's doing all right.

    Ian Laperriere

    I saw that one live. Was kinda shocking at first but then I heard that's like the 10th time or something when he's blocked a shot with his face. Did it hit the nose? Some people said at first that he was covering his eye, so that was kinda scary

    You always do it like that? I always stay awake and wake up the next "morning" about 3 or 4pm. I've kinda used to sleep alot.

    WCQF Game 5 GDT: Red Wings 4 at Coyotes 1

    LOL. Korpikoski in the top6. If we don't win I don't know what to say. Although I may not watch the game because it's starts so fukin late and I slept only 4 hours last night.

    Prospective 2010-11 Red Wings Roster

    Well Boogaard or someone. Someone youngerr than May. Someone who could be here in the future too.And I don't think we should have Kindl as an extra d-man. He's one of our best prospects and may as well be a top4 d-man in few years. edit: spelling.

    That was a VERY lame reaction by the caster. Obviously biased.

    I agree with these selections.

    #7 Philadelphia knocks out #2 New Jersey

    I think Flyers winning was not a surprise at all. They had a good record against Devils in the regular season. I watched two Flyers-Devils games in the regular season and they looked solid.

    Why would it be strange? He is left handed. Meaning right-handed in hockey.

    It's like the fan has asked him to sign to some very WEIRD item and Z is like "Umm... ookayy..."

    Rafalski looks like a *** mob guy (pic 25), Datsyuk looks like a wet dog (pic 27) and Lidstrom looks like a kid jumping over some fence in the kindergarten (pic 59). Also, Brad May looks like Wolverine (pic 67). Great pics!

    Jimmy Howard among Calder Finalists

    Then what did you meant by saying: "His career in Providence of the AHL means he doesn't qualify for the Calder Trophy this season."?I mean why would Rask's games in AHL matter anything? Why don't they matter with Howard then?

    Jimmy Howard among Calder Finalists

    What? Hasn't Howard played more than 25 games in the AHL too.Is AHL considered major league? As Rask has played more than 25 games in FNL.

    Or Miller?

    4/22 OOT Playoff Gameday

    Leino is playing tonight. Gotta watch the game. He's probably in top6, we'll see how long he can stay there.

    If it would then Rask would be the winner easily.
