    What's best for Mantha?

    Mantha could be in GR this season, next, and maybe even a third. Obviously I'm not hoping for that, but I bet LGW will wrongly call for his head if he doesn't make it after this year

    This sums up your pov so perfectly. Babs played PK in how many Olympic Games?

    Wings Should Snag Sami Vatanen from Ducks

    What makes u think they'd even consider parting with him? You might as well suggest trading for Maata. It won't happen.

    Who is this player

    Yeah any info would help. Even where it was taken.

    Can Z and Pav do anything to protest? (not that they would)

    The Sens are a mess and never got Alfie a cup. Gretzky never wanted to leave, but had to be dealt for financial reasons that Illitch doesn't have. It's not impossible, but it's a stretch.

    Dont Jump Yet...

    Except ur talking about 2 different teams. The freak injuries we had this year severely crippled us. It may have been much closer otherwise. A low is a loss, ur subjective interpretation is well... A subjective opinion

    2014 Offseason League Signings and Trades

    Ignore my other points and nitpick the term. Whatever was, 2 years, is still blocking kids that r ready now and even more ready next year. Plus many will need to re-sign and well have 3 mill tied up in a 4th line C for 2 more years

    Plus we have Nosek Campbell Porter Miele Pulkinnen and now possibly AA and Mantha fighting for a forward position. Just adding one of those guys puts us at the 23 man roster limit assuming Danny D and Tatar re-sign. There's no room for Legwand whether u like it or not. And there's Ferraro and Callahan. Lots of prospects clamoring to play.

    Legwand at 3 mill for 3 years likely blocks a kid down the road

    The point is we lost. I don't care if it's 7 games against Chi or 5 against Bos, a loss is a loss. Saying it was close or saying we got crushed are both stupid. Many thigs could have gone differently.

    Hockey News: Red Wings ‘D’ hunting

    No wonder he's so fat. He's Larry Murphy 2.0

    They'd have to move multiple cheap replaceable players to free up 2 million

    He's made comments before this year. If you want me to dig I will.

    They'd destroy their depth and get into waiver trouble once injuries started

    I'll be mad if they manage to move Bickell

    Wings to have face to face with Matt Niskanen

    Maybe unreal for him, but not when compared to other Dmen league wide

    It's too bad about us having Weiss...

    I won't say he was a 3rd line C, but "extremely effective" is beyond generous if not wrong

    Teams to be compensated for losing personnel to other teams

    Of course Bowman is not. Yzerman yes.

    Hockey News: Red Wings ‘D’ hunting

    Well I have no idea if hjalmersson is RFA or not, but if ur referring to a trade with the hawks, it'll never happen with us.

    Can Z and Pav do anything to protest? (not that they would)

    They were taught by Yzerman and Lidstrom and will retire like Yzerman and Lidstrom. Anyone who seriously suspects otherwise is reaching for the wings to tank

    Sami Salo a good option for wings?

    Salo is actually what Sproul may turn into.... Hard shot RH Dman

    scraping ye bottom o' barrel

    Vrbata went to Van. Heater for the win! Although it will never happen. Wings would never allow him to poison our young stars.

    Sheahan Re-Signed: 2-Years @ $950k/season

    Czech. Party habits. Small offensively gifted forward. Has threatened to go back overseas. You don't notice a few similarities?

    Niskanen is still overpaid regardless, especially for the term.

    I'll save this post and bring it up for u 3 or 4 years from now when he retires as a wing captain with his jersey in the banners a few years later.
