    What facts are there to be honest? Besides our wins total? Howard? Defense? All I'm saying as a die-hard fan, we are overrated. What has been our best win this season? Maybe the last outing against Vancouver? Maybe the comeback against Calgary who at the time was a lowly team and now is hot and in playoff contention. So what I'm asking is do you think the Wings are achieving or underachieving or is the team just perfect right now... ok where's pittsburgh? They have 72 points with a game in hand BRO? If your like me you hate Pittsburgh however please don't sell them short of not being good this year. I wish they only had 50 points

    Did you misquote what I said. I was replying to someone else. Read my paragraph again. To be "elite" takes consecutive seasons. And your the one saying people with short attention spans. Come on man...

    Indeed. Or if someone doesn't like your personal opinion they make stupid worthless non hockey comments.

    Ok I'll go with you on Rinne being elite this season. But imo to be elite you must have consecutive seasons of great numbers. The season isn't over yet and a lot of things can change including goaltending numbers. But overall yes myabe Rinne is better than Howard. I believe this is Rinne's third nhl season? Howard's sophomore season. So it's hit or miss to start comparing them both to eachother right now. I may or may not take him over Howard.

    Forsberg Joins Avalanche

    Too bad he didn't have to pass through waivers first. I'm sure someone would have stamped him...

    Ok. At least you didn't say I'm wearing a prom dress or some s***. I love getting other die-hard Wings fans stirred up. Currently coaching a JV Highschool team in Minnesota. Does that count? Big deal right. Done with you bro. Take care!

    Talking about our team THIS year. Yes we are favorites every year. I just think we are hyped up to much especially THIS year. That is all... hahaha ok funny. you ever play hockey?

    2/5 GDT: Red Wings 0 at Predators 3

    Oh yeah and Mason and Rinne are not elite goaltenders. So then how do you rank Howard then, Godly? Cause he ain't even close but that has a lot to do with team defense. Whoever stated that is spot on.

    Also I think it takes balls coming onto this forum and looking at this season and saying our team is slightly overrated. I read a lot nhl forums and the genuine consenus it that we are overrated this season considering that expectations were very high. Yes injures have happened and it hurts. I'm finding that our team is a bit overrated. Vancouver and Philly are deeper teams IMO. Considering we were picked by a lot of people to win the cup this year. It could happen. It's all an opinion of course. And lets look out for San Jose which is getting hot again after they're sluggish start. Bottom line is 1-8 going into the playoffs imo will be a dogfight more so than any previous years....

    yeah I've been a chicago fan since's Fedorov's rookie season amigo. Team lose all the time yes all the time. You can't win every game. You seem to have overlooked who we played against in the first 1/4 of the season. You sound like a Pittsburgh fan....

    Should Valtteri Filppula be traded?

    Nice stats indeed. I wouldn't be opposed to trading Filppula however it's highly unlikely. The only big complaint I have for Filppula is his price tag. 3 mil a season? Seams to high to me but what do I know nothing...

    2 back to back shutout losses is no biggie in the nhl? Hahah unless you're the Detroit Red Wings. Not expected to get shutout with the lineup we have. Especially against Columbus and Nashville of all teams. The break seems to have done us a lot of good. Kinda hoping Modano comes back quicker now since no one can step up to the plate and score besides Franzen on a somewhat consistent basis. Draper has been ok since back from injury. Bertuzzi depends on the game when he decides he might want to play. Hudler needs to go. Been saying it all season, so have a lot of other people. Howard has been up and down. Anyways this team has a lot of room for improvement especially defensively. Maybe a trade is in order I don't know thank f*** I'm not Kenny. Let him deal with it... p.s. I find our team highly overrated at the moment and nowhere near the top of the elite in the NHL. But that's regarding this season. Dunno what's more frustrating this season or last. Last season we pulled it together and made a great late run drive to make the playoffs, and though there is still a lot of hockey to be played this season seems it might go in the opposite direction.... Unfortunately it sucks to be losing but the expectations were very high this season and it's been disappointing. Yes we were great the first 1/4 of season. However we played some not so great or not playoff bound teams and racked up the points. It's obviously showing now. This team is frustrating to watch cause it's what night do you show up? Wouldn't mind a full roster shake up next season with some of our young guns from the AHL making the big jump. Over and out...

    Datsyuk out vs Nashville

    All for Dats taking as long as he needs to be completely 100%. No exceptions.
  21. St. Michael (the Red Wing)

    Rumor: Wings may swap for Kaberle

    This. Not keen on Kabs either. Highly doubtful that he's on Kenny's radar...
  22. St. Michael (the Red Wing)

    Ray Emery?

    No thanks. Big drama queen. We don't need that. I'd be quite surprised if Emery is even on Holland's radar tbh.

    Mallkin out with torn ACL/MCL

    Too bad so sad. Malkin though hasn't been his normal self this season anyways. It's for sure a big deal that he's gonna be out but the Pens have done well this season without much contribution from Malkin.
  24. St. Michael (the Red Wing)

    Datsyuk & Holmstrom more than likely won't play this weekend

    Bummer. I want Dats completely healthy. Could really give a s*** when Holmstrom comes back.

    Shades of Fedorov?

    Fedorov was way more of to a 2 way player when being compared to Franzen. Both could/can score otherwise I don't really see the comparison. Two different players that have worn or are wearing the Winged Wheel...
