Where are the links to the things being said about Babcock? And if they are true, I'm thinking he is gone after this year and they call up the griffs coach. Makes sense seeing as they want all the young guys up and they can bring their coach up with them.

No, I worked with parts made in the Netherlands and they would engrave numbers on the parts and use commas. Took me a couple times to figure it out. Makes it weird when you need data for something critical.

There are a few guys on that list worth looking at. I'm sure the teams got the supposed cream of the crop the first day and then everyone went on vacation. More to come next week or so I have to think.

Well it's Detroit. How many of these guys want to move their families to a city that are in the news right now about the UN having to help people get water?

According to bleacher report Washington or Minnesota for niskanen.

Must be a trade in the works. Or a really bad FA that isn't even on anyone's radar.

Haha. Pretty funny. Prolly closer to the truth than anyone will admit.

Oh, I guess it would help to read. I just scanned the list real quick. And he is maybe a top 20 pick. not top 5

How did the wings get a pick that early to begin with?

I actually meant to type 85 - iPhone error

Wtf. How much was he getting paid a season? That is ridiculous. Why are GMs throwing that kindof Money around to slightly above average players? The days of dominating players in the league earning big money are over. There are no dominating players, only dominating teams. There are no more Yzermans, Lidstroms, Hulls, sakics, forsebergs, haseks, gretzkys, messiers, or bures. Players prime playing time to earn points is about 3-4 year average. When a guy throws up more than 65 points a season for more than 5 seasons, then we can talk. Id throw money at them. But seriously, Richards, spezza, and the other available players getting these inflated contracts boggles the mind. What are the owners and GMs doing?

How's this for slow news http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2104509-detroit-red-wings-give-sage-life-advice-to-girl-on-twitter

This. Very true. I always thought it was a bad idea. He had his moments, but he just didn't throw his weight around like he could have. I mean he certainly could have been the muscle we needed to keep opponents in line, but he never tried to put anyone on their ass like a guy that size could. I wonder if there is a rule on the team not to get into the messy stuff by babcock. Because he certainly doesn't ever look happy when Justin gets greasy.

I think this will be like the maltby deal. I can't see him wanting to play in the ahl. And if he does play on the wings then it will be because he earned it. Maybe he busts his ass in the offseason and gets in beast mode for one last hoorah. Or maybe his body can't do what his mind wants to and he realizes it and hangs em up. His knees are pretty much shot.

Samuelson too http://bleacherreport.com/tb/ddkSv

Same here. I thought he was hurt pretty much since November. I can't recall watching him play really. Pretty sure he and Babcock have a thing on the side.

These are the moves the kings GM has made before their last two finals appearances. Holland used to do similar things. What gives? http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nhl-puck-daddy/analysis-jeff-carter-jack-johnson-deal-royal-coup-041338890.html [url="http://m.espn.go.com/general/story?storyId=10556331&city=losangeles&src=desktop%5B/url]

More bulls*** from kenny. next you will see he picks up leino off waivers and take back eaves.

Then why did lapointe leave? And how did the kings end up with those guys on one team. It's not like it can't be done.
