    3/14 GDT : Red Wings 2 at Flyers 7

    Well. Another great first period.. Someone tell them it's not a warm up period

    Sounds like the New York "Islanders" are no more...

    I agree. I'd expect that cap hit on a shorter term.. he'll probably be worth it for at least the first few years and definitely would've got a similar contract from someone in free agency so I don't really agree with it but it's not completely surprising I guess....

    So you're saying he can score? They don't ask how, they ask how many

    Just came here to post that. Crazy. I, don't know how their cap situation is but I'd imagine they're going to have to move some contracts in the next couple years..

    Ah I forgot about that. I feel like a leg injury is tougher to come back from.. at least athanasiou could keep his legs in shape a little. But yeah, who knows.

    I don't think so. Manthas size will be huge for the wings.. I'd maybe put them at about the same level but Mantha also started a couple months behind because of his leg so it's hard to say, imo. I think next season will be a good indicator of where Mantha is. Either way, it seems like they both have a potentially bright future in Detroit. Tons of upside to both of them.

    Wings are serving up a box of Apple Fritters!!

    Vaya con dios Damien Brunner

    Maybe not to that extent but I have heard them talk about uniform ads. I'd hate it. I think I read that they were going to try it out for "the world cup of hockey"

    3/6 GDT : Flames 5 at Red Wings 2

    Love him on Twitter haha since he went to Florida it's only gotten better.... "@strombone1: 690 PLAYERS 30 TEAMS 14 QUALIFIERS BUT THERE IS ONLY ONE GOAL ONE NIGHT ONLY #weliveforthis #nhldraftlottery" He followed that when they got the first overall pick with "I've never won anything before!!" But i think this is my all-time favorite.... "@strombone1: Don't think so....."@FlaPanthers: Does Roberto Luongo have the Twitter?"

    Keith being an awesome human being

    aboslutely beautiful. Keith is one of the few players on a rival team to the wings that I like.... and this makes him so much better. good for him and good for the blackhawks for having this "what's your goal" program.

    Rest Ericsson and give marchenko a game if E isn't 100%, imo

    3/6 GDT : Flames 5 at Red Wings 2

    Wait, I must've missed something.. what happened to Ericsson?
  19. i really like the idea of a dekeyser-zid second line.... but dekeyser-quincey has played well together, so it might take quincey having a game off unfortunately.

    3/6 GDT : Flames 5 at Red Wings 2

    Never thought I'd see the day where hudler had the same amount of points as datsyuk I hope we pour on the offense. 5-0 wings. Cole's turn to shine. Goals = Cole (x3), datsyuk, sheahan. LGW!
  21. On the lighter side of things.. Mike Green found an old discontinued stealth like he used to use and loves it. He is now on a quest to find as many as possible so he doesn't have to switch back to new sticks again that are "heavier and less flexible." I thought this article was funny, so I figured I'd share. Enjoy http://www.russianmachineneverbreaks.com/2015/03/04/mike-green-is-playing-with-an-easton-stealth-stick-that-was-discontinued-almost-a-decade-ago/
  22. I don't know, that seems like it could get confusing giving nyquist two nicknames....
  23. I think I read somewhere that they technically sent him down as a "paper move".... I'll try to find a linkEdit: looks like it was more speculation than fact.... My bad. Can't find anything confirming it. http://kuklaskorner.com/tmr/comments/practice-tweets-egg-likes-ham
  24. We could get as many fans as possible to go out and find them.. showing him how great the fans are here. Maybe he'll take a discount if we get a few seasons worth of old stealths

    Pulkkinen sent back to GR

    Pulkkinen is at that spot where he's too good for the ahl and not quite ready to face the nhls top competition, like he would be in the top six role he's projected for. I think next season we should start with three scoring lines and pulk will be on the third line. That seems ideal at this point, imo.
