    Forsberg in HOF, Fedorov equal?

    I don't know if he is a fist ballot HOF but I believe he will get in.. But if it was all on stats Osgood should get in... I agree both should be in eventually.

    Myers close to become a wing?

    I remember seeing or reading somewhere that the organization believes larkin and mantha is our future zetterburg and Datsyuk. Even going as far as mentioning that they will be looking for Larkin to eventually take the C. The kid oozes leadership. But it might have been McGuire that said it. So take it for what it's worth.

    Where to stay in Detroit

    We get the best deals from Windsor Hotels and cross the border for the game. You can take a shuttle across or dive and park at Greektown casino and use the Detroit People mover. Our pre-game staple is Deep dish Pizza at http://www.pizzapapalis.com/

    11/9 GDT - Tampa Bay 4 at Detroit 3 (SO) - 6:00 PM EST

    Not a crazy idea I like it.... or bring in a specialist, maybe Bertuzzi? All kidding aside, I an sure there is a younger coaches that has seen this from the ground up in the juniors. Teach the older dogs some new tricks.

    Good: Since the kids came to play there is no quit in this team. There was a time that down 3-1 halfway though, you mind well pack it in and look to the next game. Bad: I can't understand when you score 3 goals in the same area over the glove... One would think you might try that once in the shootout? Nope lets try 3 times between the legs.

  9. Your talking about the same Franzen that is tied for the franchise lead in Playoff GWG and OT Goals in Detroit Red Wings History? Same guy that single handed beat the Avs. I admit he has not had great playoffs the last couple years, But what Red Wing has?

    The lesson here? Cheating pays off once in a while

    Kerry Fraser's take on the play. http://www.tsn.ca/fraser-the-options-for-a-referee-when-a-goalie-purposely-dislodges-a-net-1.124904
  11. My comparison for GWG was highlighted by how fewer games he has played vs the top two. I did make a mistake Z has played 770 to Franzen 572. Both Franzen, Z and Nyquist lead the wings with a game winning goal every 13.5 game they play. I would not say they the other 2 are not clutch players. I hope this helps my argument. If you can give me a better stat to show clutch a player is I would like to see it. All that said this is getting way off topic.

    Michael Del Zotto

    He better watch it or he might be heading to Jian Ghomesh territory.
  13. Lol Sorry I had too. I couldn't agree with krsmith17 more. Mule is what he is. He is streaky as they come but well worth the contract. I politely disagree with clutch comment. He is 3rd behind Z and Dats for GWG by an active Red Wing. Z is leading with 57, 15 more that Franzen, but Z has played exactly 100 more games. IMO that stat is all about being clutch. As for Q, the last 2 years he started horrible slow and finished as strong as any of our guys on defense, I am glad to see he bucked this trend. Hopefully this won't get a start strong end slow.

    10/18 GDT - Maple Leafs 0 at Red Wings 1 (OT)

    It is because real fans cannot afford seats in Toronto. All the tickets are gobbled up business suits entertaining clients. This is why a 2nd NHL team would work.

    Will Cleary make the roster? (poll)

    IMO he will be on the roster watching from the press box as a healthy scratch. and I am ok with that.... I really hope they keep Professor X (Ouellet). I really hope Q does not take the first half of the season off like he has the past 2 seasons.
  17. Could be worse, remember what happens with out the rounded glass.
  18. good Interview with Dats http://www.freep.com/videos/sports/nhl/red-wings/2014/09/23/16098121/ Dats: "I got hit in to the galsses. Helene St.James: "How do you feel?" Dats: "Better ask how glasses feel" ... HSJ: "how do you think Darren Helm looks today?" Dats: "He is ready for Halloween" Least he is in good spirits.

    potential team names for las vegas!

    I am surprised no one suggested the Las Vegas Hookers.

    Pavel Datsyuk trolls Paul Bissonnette on Twitter

    Funny, but staged.
  21. I like this concept Looks like 1/4 will be under ground and keeping a low ceiling. One of my favorite part of the Joe is how low the ceiling is. When the Joe is rocking it is the loudest hockey area I have been in.
