  1. @TheFourthPeriod: Wings were in on Gustavsson when he first joined the NHL. He understands backup roll. Good addition for Detroit.

    Free Agency General Rumor Thread

    Wow, and that guy is seriously the most biased writer against Detroit.
  4. And signed at $5.25/yr for 5 years For Jordan Henry and a 5th rounder.

    If we fail to reload with top UFAs we should?

    Olli Jokinen will become a UFA on July 1st.
  7. Nick Kyperos: Breaking #NHL news. Done deal. Look for #Pens to announce star Sidney Crosby to a new 12 year contract for 104.4M. Annual cap hit 8.7M
  8. Crosby's contract isn't only for his on-ice value, it's for what he brings the team off the ice as well.
  9. Blue chip, top-4 offensive defenseman prospect expected to hit free agency this July. Anaheim has exlcusive rights initially for 30 days but it looks like he is expected to hit free agency. TSN's Bob McKenzie expects him to be the top UFA behind Parise and Suter this offseason. Even though we have a good offensive defenseman in Smith, a top level prospect would be good for our prospect pool. Any one have thoughts? NBC Sports PHT article Edit: just saw the topic in the prospects section, but might as well keep this here since not many people frequent that section of the forum.

    So What's Up With Abby & Quincey?

    Offer sheets aren't uncommon; it's the teams not matching them is what is really rare.

    Enhanced Red Wings News Added to Forums

    I'm not sure what the other blogs you added were, but two other good ones are Winging It In Motown and Nightmare On Helm Street.
  19. I remember seeing a list somewhere that ranked him in the top-5 earlier this year. He could be a crazy-good steal.
  20. Per Darren Dreger, for draft picks. @Aportzline: #CBJ GM Scott Howson says deal for G Sergei Bobrovsky "not done yet."

    So What's Up With Abby & Quincey?

    Keith Yandle to be Traded?

    But its gonna have to be Fil, since they are looking for a center and that is what Fil plays.
  23. Jurco2. Great hands, fast, can score, but he is small and needs to work on his defensive zone play. He also thinks he needs to work on his shot. Here a quote from this article:
