    Datsyuk @ KHL Skills Competition

    Nice. Second one was just like that SO goal he pulled on Niemi a few years back. Just post the youtube URL to embed the video, no code necessary.
  2. Sure, the more the merrier.
  3. Harold and McA, you took the words out of my mouth so I won't repeat a point already made. That's pretty damn funny.
  4. You sure about that? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ed_Olczyk http://blackhawks.nhl.com/club/news.htm?id=643520 http://kuklaskorner.com/index.php/hockey/comments/when_why_did_eddie_olczyk_become_edzo http://www.csnchicago.com/sportsnetChicago/search/v/64821462/olczyk-honored-to-enter-us-hockey-hof-modano-praises-edzo.htm This is all I could find about an Enzo. And he definitely doesn't like the Wings. Just saying, I'd rather not listen to him. In fact, I'd rather not listen to either of them. Give me Ken and Mick any day. http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/hockey/nbc-letting-stooges-mike-emrick-article-1.326628

    Brunner's nickname

    Yes. Confused the hell out of me when talk about Brunner started. I kept thinking they were talking about Brunnstrom.
  6. Everyone is reporting April 3rd for the trade deadline, including Sam Carchidi. Maybe he changed it. The season will indeed run until the end of April. According to mlive the Wings will start Jan 19th on the road in St. Louis. The home opener will be Jan 22nd against Dallas and their last game of the season is April 27th in Dallas (I know where I will be that day; Jedi, you going?). UPDATE: Just checking that article again, they don't mention the game in Dallas on the 27th anymore. The article did mention earlier the schedule was still tentative as it has already changed three times this week. This is the from the current version of the article. Maybe that already changed since it was posted.
  7. Me neither. He's pretty dang knowledgeable, no matter how creepy he is. He's not as bad as say...Edzo. Anyone remember that game against Chicago? I'm pretty sure it was that OT winner Pasha banked off of their guy in front of the net...when Edzo was all like "SIGH, Wing's win".

    When are tickets likely to go on sale

    Depends on the game and venue. The first games will probably be on sale right away, but games towards the end of the season might not be. That's how it typically works, but it is a short season so I don't really know what to expect at this point.
  9. Absolutely not. I mean, I guess we could just sign Conks if none of our eggs hatch.

    Detroit Listed as a Bandwagon Fan Base

    A few things: 1. What is his team? I bet he believes they have the most passionate fan base. 2. If you are going to write an article, what is your goal? Getting traffic. Attack the large fan bases and you'll get more views.
  11. I could never stand Bettman. I will admit though, after all this, I sort of feel bad for the guy now.
  12. He read letters, the blogs, the tweets.....LOL. He better have someone else present the cup this year. I think we will have a new standard for booing.

    Kovalchuk says he may stay in KHL

    I agree, just something interesting I thought I would point out.

    Toronto fires Brian Burke

    Talk about Burke and Bettman serious?

    Kovalchuk says he may stay in KHL

    Well then. As long as he comes back, doesn't bother me if he plays in the All-Star game. I will note I find it odd how people actually want to play in the KHL All-Star game but nobody wants to when the NHL has one.

    Team Roll Call.

    You should see the rest of the storm brewing with the KHL right now...

    I need a prayer answered, please.....no toot-toot whistles.

    Hearing those things three times a year was bad enough. Please don't make me endure it for 41 games a season. If people start with the whistles, might as well start throwing catfish...

    Team Roll Call.

    They're on the list, just no idea where they are. I have not heard any updates since a deal was reached. You had beers with Hank? Lucky!

    IIHF vs. NHL.

    The potential conflict between the NHL and KHL may make the Sochi Olympics interesting.

    ‏ From the deadspin article:

    Kovalchuk says he may stay in KHL

    I meant the NHL. Vague reference, my bad.
  22. rrasco

    Schedule?

    We might play one of them. In the Finals.

    Kovalchuk says he may stay in KHL

    If they won't let Visnosvky stay, Kovy definitely won't be allowed. What happens, we will see...

    Schedule?

    Yeah, something like that. I didn't do the math, just echoing speculation I've heard. They could do 4/3, 16 against division and 30 against conference. Then throw in two out of conference or some other random games. It all depends on how many games they are playing really.
