This thread is blowing my mind, what the hell.

Bure-Gretzky-Fedorov Ovechkin-Lemieux-Neely Shanahan-Yzerman-Howe Messier-Datsyuk-Hull Probert Selanne/Jagr Lidstrom-Pronger Orr-Borque Chelios-Leetch Robinson Niedermeyer Hasek Lundqvist Brodeur Obviously there's some bias there. Especially toward players of our generation, but it's all for fun anyway. Tried to add a mix of speed, skill, and grit. Of course Probert has to be there as the best enforcer of all time.

I don't like to make excuses, but I am going to blame injuries for this one. All these one goal loses and Franzen getting 0pts. I have to believe a healthy Mule puts them over the top.

It was remotely similar to what Avery did. That is the exact kind of thing the NHL clearly doesn't want it's players doing, and I don't blame them. I will agree the wording of the rule right now does make it iffy though, gutsy call by the ref especially since Pronger's arm was down before the shot.

1.Read title of thread. 2.Think. 3.?????? 4.Profit!

ust to piss everyone off even more lol

I really don't understand why Columbus didn't offer him something good. He could have done very well there.

Man, I really wish I could hear what Babs was saying, and what actually happened there.

I could see Abdelkader becoming something like a mini Lucic for the WIngs.

Ya, that trade worked out well for the Wings. I mean hell at least Cheveldae even played a few seasons in Winnipeg...although now that I type that that might be more of a slight on Winnipeg than anything. Still though, Drakes awesome, and the other dude we got in the trade (Bautin?) hardly played any games, if any that I remember.

Miller Bryzgalov Kiprusoff Brodeur Backstrom Lundqvist Vokoun Luongo Fleury Howard I didn't too much though in the order so much, but it seems close enough to me.

Phoenix? St. Louis? Does he really have the desire to retire playing for those teams?

Huet is not Canadian he is French. KHL is a possibility, and he COULD be waived. Would it make Chicago look bad, sure. You can't say it's not possible though.

I actually could see Eaves being the one to go, he really doesn't have a whole lot more upside than Miller a this point, and I think we could get a little more for Eaves in a trade than Miller too. I don't really agree though that Miller was all that better on the PK though.

Every team and their fans for any sport, anywhere, wants an Yzerman.

Hey, let's get Sergei. I'm sure if that actually happened Lidstrom would feel like he's seeing ghosts hah.

Did they trade for his rights or something?

Ya guys, why doesn't Holland just get Stamkos?! He had 51! goals last season, and is making .875mil a year! Surely the added offense would help the team right?

I am all for this, I would rather have him than Miller, and maybe Eaves too, especially since we are going to have Abdelkader full time.

It's bad, but it really isn't much of a problem. $1.5m isn't that bad for Drapes, he brings a lot of intangibles.

Agreed, that'd be too many big contracts for Detroit anyway.

Honestly with the way Stamkos has been playing though I could see them wanting to dump Vinny's contract, and I think Filppulla/Cleary+some sort of picks and prospects landing him. Downie could be a bit much after the way he has been playing, but I think that could land Vinny. Their second line would look real good with Filppula and Cleary on it. Dude chill I was kidding about Lebda, you just have to throw him in there. If you're gonna dream, dream big right?

My post is being eaten by some linux or something.

Obviously Cleary has a NTC, but if the Wings offered Stevie Filppula, Cleary, and hell why not Lebda, for Lecavalier and someone like Downey I do't see any reason why he wouldn't take it. The way Stamkos has been playing and the size of Vinny's contract would both help the Wing's chances of landing him. With about equal salary going back each way I don't see why it couldn't hypothetically work. mmmm..<div><br></div><div>Zetterberg-Datsyuk-Holmstrom<div>Franzen-Lecavalier-Hudler<br>Bertuzzi-Helm-Eaves<br>Abdelkader-Draper-Downie </div><div><br></div> </div>
