He should be doing that already, along with trying to land Suter. If they could somehow land Semin to replace Hudler in the 3-4 mill range Id take it. Imagine the Wings landing Parise, Suter & Semin! A summer to remember kids.

I think that's the main part of "franzen wants to have more fun" stuff. In older interviews all he kept saying was how he loved that he could just play and have no pressure to perform. Thats what we had Zetterberg, Datsyuk & Hossa for. Now Franzen is suppose to be the man among men? He's done well and will do better if we land an elite type player; even if he plays exactly the same, if you catch my drift

These playoffs are just full of surprises aren't they. Congrats to Phoenix on one hell of a shocker! *Edit: Though it is nice to see Rinne does indeed have kinks in his armor...

I see it for sure!

The kings are friggin' my s*** up right now, good to see, for the talent involved on the Ice as well as off. I hope the forge on the way they have been so far...But Im shocked the Blues went out like that with the second half they had.

At first I was with you on this, but in your video you see Neal really let up last minute and try to avoid contact thus showing respect for his fellow NHL'er...Not the case at all with Torres, he wanted to f*** Hossa up, the same way he did with his other sixty-three infractions this season.

Are you seriously comparing these two hits?

It's obviously because of his 5 similar hit history, he certainly deserves 25 games. The guy knows how the league is really cracking down on head hits this year and he still gets suspended 3 different times for real bad head hits? Torres is a moron, much like anyone still bitching about Weber.

He's through the ridiculous part of it but no shocker really with 10 mill left on it over two years. Crazy he's made so much money. *edit- In the ballpark of 60 Million earned and 169 goals...ouch

I'd also second this, if they were well priced I'd get me one of them bad boys.......Ha! *Edit: seriously nice job though

Too bad I was also hoping Florida would pull through, and yeah it would have been sweet to see Sammy rip one home.

Thank you!

is there a steam for this game at all?

:beerbuddy: ............Cheers Matt!

Im taking Rinne and it's honestly because he's a damn beast at 6'5. Quick is awesome though and they are two of the top guys right now. I also believe Howard IS in the discussion with these guys, he didnt save the series which is his only faux pas imho. Prior to this Howard has matched up to these two very well, I look forward to a healthy Howard again. Sorry got off topic there, again I pick Pekka Rinne...

Could you imagine....

As much as it pisses me off, I like the Preds because Rinne and St. Louis because Ive like Tj Oshie since he's came into the league. Ive wanted him multiple times actually. I really dont care about the east as long as the pens dont make it, maybe Ill pick Ottawa do to my geographical location.

I can't help but think Legwand is going to add a few more tick's to his achievement list before Nashville's run is done this spring, should top off his "very average" career thus far.

80% of people will tell you that 85% of the time that's true.

Like everyone around here I love the Holmstrom, has been a force and revolutionized how his position was played forever. Thank you for the many, many memories!

Our 4 lines as a whole didnt play well, Z and Dats played well. Flip played well most of the time and Miller was ok too. The rest of the team was so so, I still dont know why Emmerton, Holmstrom and Cleary kept playing with (in my mind at least) some better options in GR. Will we keep Emmerton here for the next two years? I would have taken Tatar, Andersson, Sheahan, Brunnstrom or Mursak instead of the above three mentioned. Kenny should be a busy man this summer. After a couple rounds of golf that is...

There is more to come on what Holland should do this offseason, but Ive must pace myself there is a lot of it! First and foremost give Helm a raise, because the Wings are not the same playoff team without him.

I unfortunately got stuck working the first three weeks of april without a day off, so this really sucks. No playoff hockey for this guy this year! I hope you come back Nick I promise I'll watch every game

I don't mean this in any pessimistic way at all but at the point we are at right now my highlight is that now our boys upstairs will actually make a move...I hope.

Really hoping to hear some great news after work tonight! Lets ramp this s*** up a couple notches and make it a series!! LGW
