    Building a winning franchise

    Parise-Crosby -Stamkos Keith-Doughty Halak-Jimmy Edit: Must give love to Hank as well. To me the best 2-way player in the game. Avatar and handle just don't make it such, the fact he shuts down everyone's top player near every game. And future Captain of the Wings, brings the leadership too.

    Crosby Should Get More Blame than Ovechkin

    TitsMcgee would be a solid choice as well...

    Hawks or sharks?

    Go Habs! Can't add all the hate toward the Sharks because I feel its time wasted and well Chicago this is their last shot either way. That entire team goes next year. Habs win there will be no more ville de Montreal Laisse aller les Canadiens

    Penguins Eulogy

    I do also wonder what happens to the rest of the facial hair and why it gathers all dirty sanchez like right under his nose...then the Lemieux's and Bettman come up again ha ha ha
  7. Perhaps my greatest JLA moment was when Shanny sealed the '02 Cup with the EN . Still a tad deaf from that! Great news to hear this as well but really who else??

    Lidstrom throwing out first pitch

    I am not sure how anyone could have possibly doubted Nick would throw a strike.

    Montreal rioting after win

    Guess my hatred really exceeds what I thought it was at... These pics make me But really, lets wait for the Cup Habs fans for the celebration. Realize these are huge wins and all but there could be better things to come. But hard to find anything better than a ripped up burned picture of Skid Mark. Shows how they really felt about him winning that Gold for them.

    Mike Babcock expects 70 points from Hudler

    Power play improves a bunch but we have known about Huds coming back for a while now and it hasn't excited me to the point where I think we don't have to make some sort of move. I trust in Kenny we are getting some cap space back and he will pull the trigger on the right guy, just hoping its a younger blue liner that can hit and man the point on the 2nd unit. And of course my new guy Lombardi haha but who knows...

    Mike Babcock expects 70 points from Hudler

    Can't see 70 for Val either... We have been waiting and hoping for that now for some time. The guy has all world talent without the "finnish". Yeah that was a weak pun but really the guy can't score. Huds is a lot more likely to get to 70 but lets be honest, 55-65 thats probably his possible high mark in the NHL.

    Who should we Keep? Release? Sign?

    I'm in.. Horton could flourish here without a doubt. Huds definitely has sentimental value but that somewhat went away when he left for that year (which we would have done too, 5 million non-taxable ) Bingo Bango!

    Hawks or sharks?

    Never quite seems like anyone gets off unscathed when we don't make it haha. Very good points on not going through the Wings to get there. Best of luck to Chicago getting out of there not having like 6 2man advs. to kill.

    Lidstrom throwing out first pitch

    Geez they pick a Thursday afternoon game to have the Wings there pffff Going Saturday night to see them play the SAWKS. Whatever tho....4 more years indeed Nicklas!!!!

    Who should we Keep? Release? Sign?

    Hjalmarsson would be a perfect fit especially with the Swedish connection. Not saying that plays a huge role in anything but the guy has talent on the power play and pk. Young too. But I will say it yet again Hamhuis and Lombardi are key guys to target but that would be at the expense of losing Bert more than likely. We could live with that I think.

    Hawks or sharks?

    Anyone but Chicago. Yeah, we got beat by the Sharks but with all that was happening it was inevitable. Hate me some Joe Thornton. But I will take the Sharks. Go Habs!

    5/12 Playoff Gameday

    This is waaaaay too satisfying! I am a Wings fan lol Just gained a lot more respect for the Habs play. Duh! retract that last statement, to be a Wings fan is to enjoy moments such as these.

    5/12 Playoff Gameday

    Unbelievable! Sad about the Wings but this just made me exhale a whole lot more. Crosby played worse than Ovie from the games I saw, points aside. Way to go Habs. After these 2 rounds can't see anyone in the East stopping them. Cammalleri U of M boy. Go get 'em!

    5/12 Playoff Gameday

    Go Habs! PLEASE! No ill will toward Pittsburgh and all but... Ah hell with it hope the Igloo falls to the ground with Crosby in it. Yeah I have mental issues when it comes to that clown.

    Mike Babcock expects 70 points from Hudler

    Its a big reach to think Happy gets 70 but I do believe 70+ out Pavs and Hank for sure. Stay healthy Franzen and pretend its the playoffs all year and we may have something. 55 or 60 range for Huds and then maybe get that one hard working player that would love to wear a Wings uniform(which should be anyone) for the right amount of money; maybe Lombardi. I don't do line combo posts because thats for Babs to do, it just gives me a headache but I think things look up for next year. Barring those dreaded injuries of course.
