    1/25 GDT : Wild 3 at Red Wings 5

    Don't worry, I'm a professional. Now hold my beer and watch this s***. I don't like it. I noted the other day he had a tendency to want to go down low with the puck, but then he turned it over and was caught with a forward behind him. I don't think anything came of that one, but do that a few times and it will bite you.

    I'm pretty sure I went ape s*** and did laps around my couch...and I didn't even spill my beer.

    Nail Yakupov Goal Celebration.

    He was pulling the logo up on his jersey, proud to be doing that for the Wings.... How does Nail scoring more mean he gets to be more excessive? Wouldn't it be the other way around if Tatar isn't going to score as much?

    Suter? This Suter? I'd love for this to happen again, but don't make me wait until the end of the game.

    Nail Yakupov Goal Celebration.

    I agree, no biggie. I know if that was the Wings and they scored I'd be flipping my wig like the crowd there was, so no harm to me. Like others said, it was kind of iffy to skate past your team like that though.

    Jamie Benn

    Figures. I dropped him last night and then heard during the Stars game they reached a deal. Blah Oh cool, I thought it was Benn but it was Burns I dropped last night. Now he needs to play...

    Schenn suspended 1 game for a clean hit

    I think it's important to credit Kronwall for improving his hit. He used to get air and launch up a lot more, last year he had several hits where I don't even think his feet left the ice, even after the hit. On that note, Kronwall has stepped up for a big hit the last two games. Guys are bailing on it though. I think it's funny watching guys realize who's coming up the boards at them and frantically try to get out of the way.

    Schenn suspended 1 game for a clean hit

    He jumped into his ******* head. Seriously, we are complaining about that? Tootoo might have been charging, but he didn't jump into homie. Are we penalizing hard hits or head hits? Kind confused after reading this thread.

    Franzen should have been at Tae Bo class during the lockout

    To be fair, he had the D's stick between his legs and I think he was trying to tie him up until the Wings could get a shot off, that they never did. I am with you, my initial thought was: "Great, now Mule is just going to literally lay on the ice."

    1/22 GDT : Stars 2 at Red Wings 1

    See, that just confused me. It sounded like they were booing. Like for the longest time I thought Canucks' fans were booing Lou every time he made a save.

    No, recent events indicate we will lose him in practice tomorrow.

    25 Questions for Darren McCarty

    My fav too.
  14. Accurate? Yeah, you're spot on! Let's just say he was never really interested, because well, he knew someone would overpay and that someone wasn't Kenny H. http://www.mlive.com/redwings/index.ssf/2011/07/red_wings_dont_get_into_biddin.html

    Jordin Tootoo: Usage? (6:57 TOI vs. Columbus)

    Good thing this is a team sport and nothing hinges on one guy. He has a role, and he does it. He did it last night, nothing to complain about really.
  16. Repeatedly argued to sign a James Wisniewski who refused to sign with Detroit? Good luck with that one.

    Lashoff

    Lashoff looked great. What I saw from Smith was that he has a tendency to make that first mistake, then he doubles back to correct for it. He does a good job there, but eventually it will cost him.

    1/21: Red Wings 4 at Blue Jackets 3 (SO)

    Well, I feel a little better knowing they remember how to play hockey. Now if they could just remember how to put one in the back of the net, we'll be good to go. On a side note, Brunner has some to learn, but he already get tons of chances. This kids gonna start potting them soon, no way he doesn't. And Tootoo is wrecking shop. Homie got pissed and left his feet on him. Oh well, 22 can handle himself. Same kid who smashed Smith into the boards, I believe.

    1/21: Red Wings 4 at Blue Jackets 3 (SO)

    Seems like they blackout games willy-nilly on GCL. I heard the game against St Louis was blacked out for people in my area too. Not sure why. Although, tonight's game is probably due to being it on NBC Sports Network.

    1/21: Red Wings 4 at Blue Jackets 3 (SO)

    The game is on NBC Sports Network tonight, meaning: even with Center Ice, if you are outside of the Detroit RSN you are forced to watch NBC Sports Network. Sucks, I know. Channel 220 on DTV if you have that channel

    Heh....I thought Columbus was Central time for some reason, just turned the TV on and the game is about to start. Talk about fluke!

    The Ken Holland Quote Thread

    I was alluding to the fact they didn't show up at all Sat. That's mindfly for you.

    The Ken Holland Quote Thread

    We knew they were going to be rusty, I just don't think we expected them to be THAT rusty. I'll admit, I still have not realized the season started, at least it doesn't feel like it. I'm going to consider the first week or two preseason, just so I have time to adjust back into this thing called 'watching hockey'. Saturday night I couldn't help but sit there and laugh. It was horrendous, and we all know it. Let's just hope the boys play at least 60 seconds tonight.

    Minnesota

    AFAIK, Suter was deciding between Minny and Det, Parise was going to Minny or staying in NJ. Thus, they decided to go to Minny. Not much you can do about that.
