This one was on Twitter. I forget if it's someone on here, but this is hilarious! https://twitter.com/#!/Whoabot/status/159074886965395457

Z!!! Thats a good start!

Devils GM Lou Lamoriello said he will most likely not trade Zach Parise before the deadline, and certainly not before he signs a new contract. But as the above poster said, Hemsky and Ruutu would be considered a success for the Wings this deadline. This might not happen, as other teams are pursuing Ruutu as well, including Nashville, I have heard. And one thing I forgot in my long post, the Wings will probably want to trade Brad Stuart to a Californian team before the deadline. He has a expressed interest in wanting to go over there to be closer to his family, and San Jose and possibly Anaheim have been interested in acquiring him. The challenge will be trading him, as the Wings will not get a return (besides $3.75m in cap space) if he reaches free agency.

Hehe. About the Eklund part, I decided to look it up and found this, which is funny. It's from 2009, and a lot of those "rumors" look silly. The ones he got right were the ones he picked multiple teams for. I haven't looked at the Wings in this thread yet, because there have been a lot of other posts on who the Wings have been looking at, but I'll compile some information here: -Ales Hemsky is supposedly the Wings #1 target at the trade deadline. It won't take as much as some people think it will take to get him, since he is injury prone and isn't having a great season. -Tuomo Ruutu has also been speculated on, although he is on pace for a career season. -Ryan Suter and Zach Parise will be two targets for the Wings in the offseason, although it will be unlikely that they sign both. Suter will be the main target if they can trade for a top-6 winger at the deadline. -A stronger backup goaltender could also be what the Wings will look for in the next few weeks. Ty Conklin just isn't getting the job done. An yes, this may look like a year for blockbusters, with many teams in need of shake-ups. Anaheim comes to mind, and Calgary might add more players with their push for the playoffs. - Just as I finish typing this, I hear that Vancouver and Anaheim may be involved in a "minor" trade.

Mike Green of the Caps is out 4-6 weeks with abdominal surgery.

LETS GO RED VINKS!!!!

LETS GO RED VINKS!!!!

Shut up Eddie.

Double minor on Miller for highsticking.

Schenn trade probably not going to happpen, as JVR out indefinitely with a concussion. (TFP)

End 1st. Shots 21-4 Det. Face offs 10-6 Det. Score 2-0 Det. LGW.

Bert!!!!

Oh man Howard!!!!

Might get changed to Lidstrom. Looks like it hit his stick.

Goal!!!

Me too. But it was an obvious hook right in front of the net.

Wings PP upcoming.
