Hartnells always been a hard working player though, ur the one being blinded. Ville leino saved scott hartbell LOL. ''Then came ville leino'' lol Explain why Leino didnt play good in Detroit? Hes a streaky player, but hes nothing special, he will be a 3rd liner for most of his career, or a 2nd liner on a s***ty team.

Nah hes probably to busy raiding harmless ships

He lost against us, then said ''i i cant beat them join em!'' Then he lost with us and was like ''Chicago has a deep team'' and i hope he gets f***ed over again, joins a team to win the cup at the age of 40, loses, retires, and lives his life knowing he is a loser. Picture how good this will look, hossa losing again, him sitting on the ice, wondering what went wrong, this time he wll probably ball his eyes out

Ye hossa was pretty lethal in those years in ottawa

cut bert, let him retire

are you serious? If so stfu the guy said nothing wrong, the world doesn't resolve around you.

Hartnells a good hockey player, works hard, decent offense skills, physical, thats a perfect compelementary player

Brendan morrison or Chris higgins, if jeff skinner goes to 21 then pick him up

Yes and if you have a bunch of players who buy into the system, they will easily beat a high powered free wheeling team, but of course you need talent to, but usually a team won't buy into a system if they see none anyways.

Theres no valid conversation to have with finnishwing, he is biased and will defend any finnish player to death, hes looking from his heart, not with his eyes. Leino is doing good right now but dont act like hes creating his chances for himself. Atleast leino trys to deke people though, unlike filpula who just enters the zone, skates around the net and does nothing.

I just saw this from someones sig and LOL

That will be a beautiful sight man.

And he coudlve been watching detroit play for 25 years your post is so stupid

True, in business you may piss off someone by offering them something so low, you can never take the risk.

Semi-Retarded thread, and also yzerman with tampa has nothing to do with him ''getting a pay check'' its because he wants to manage a team, imagine this, lighting vs redwings 2010-2011 playoffs, we lose, than what?

kenny prolly got maclean to stay

His goals are all feeding off his teammates hard work, the puck finds him when his team works there ass off for him, he just puts it in an empty net. Hes not a horrible player, but hes not the best either. But also him being able to feed off his teams hardwork is no accident, the guy knows where to be, so great for him.

Ye any man who even states that is on my homosuspision list

R u suggesting that Yzerman will somehow screw tampa..... LOL

You mean this off season because next season hasn't started Stick around for next season, same bs every year, to old to soft, the media's eaten you up. Cleary was hurt, franzen was hurt, if we stay healthy, and the return of hudler, we can win. Howard wasn't bad just the one choke goal that completely killed us. Also the salary cap next year is going to even the playing field, chicago wont be a power house anymore depth wise, and other teams, so calm down bud. O yea dude and say we wont win until draper malty, LIDSTROM, and holmstrom mvoes on. Draper kills penalties, doesnt log many minutes Holmer is a great role player Maltby's gone Lids- Once lids leaves then we can fear about NOT winning cups for a while

Bettman knows how to stick it to someone, Maclean handled that amazingly tho, so professional He did say that but tripped out when Maclean was acting like he knew what the players were thinking

You guys dont understand he already took a big paycut, theres something called pride, if ur the best player on ur team u shudnt be paid less then somebody else. Some of you guys wanted him to take 5m, or even 3.5-5, u guys are crazy. Take a look at players who are paid more then him (d-men) then come back cryin because i rather have him then any of those guys. Its so easy to say take one for the team

this, does everything u want a 4th liner to do but with some skill to his game.

i agree because its time hudler mans up to a second line player, because he does have great skills, and him and flip should fair well with cleary. Put datsyuk-zetterberg-holmer/cleary/franzen and huds,flip, cleary/franzen
