    Hometown discount for Nick next year?

    If he's still the best defenseman on the team then he'll probably be paid like it. Kronwall's cap hit is what, around 4 mil? Then let's hope they can re-sign Nick for 4.5 mil if he doesn't retire. EDIT: Okay Kronner's cap hit is 4.75 mil. Then let's hope for a 5 mil cap hit for Nick if he decides to play one more year.

    WCQF Game 5 GDT : Red Wings 1 at Predators 2

    The time is appropriate for the cliche, "Play every game like it's your last." I'm hoping for the best.

    #6 Chicago Blackhawks vs. #3 Phoenix Coyotes

    Hmm... Ok. Well, f*** the Hawks.

    He actually said that? I'm a little surprised because of how unassuming he is.

    Quenneville fined $10K

    It's crazy how $2,500 is the highest they can fine players, which on average? make more than coaches I'm assuming right? Anyways you get my point. If it's valid.

    The idiot who can't start a clock on time should be in a cage. Goddamn that pisses me off. I don't even want to know how pissed I'd be if that happened to the Wings.

    Hey Shane Doan did that goal face he does. The camera just wasn't in the right spot. Ok seriously, why are the Hawks fan booing Smith every time?

    Is Babcock watching the same game?

    Well it's Babs' job to focus hard on the positive and have the mindset to just keep building on that. But I wonder if there's ever been as big of a disparity between fans perceptions and brass perceptions. They're usually wide in general but I wonder if this year is especially wide.

    What's Kenny Holland's Offseason Plan?

    I hope Kenny's watching the other teams who have a bottom six filled with guys who play extremely hard, can skate really quickly and are more than solid defensively. I mean, the guys aren't even that big. It seems like a lot of them are around 6'0 or 5'11 but they get the job done in the playoffs.

    Why don't some people like Mike Smith? The Phoenix Goalie.
  12. Nashville's Barry Trotz says Red Wings must stop bumping into goalie Pekka Rinne I guess we'll watch and see.

    That's the job, really.

    #5 Philadelphia Flyers vs. #4 Pittsburgh Penguins

    Just thought about 2009 and 2010 today... Because of the team that won the cup I don't know if I'll ever be able to not feel some disdain for the 2009 Flyers and the 2010 Predators for blowing it against their first round opponents when they could have really stepped on their necks.

    Hometown discount for Nick next year?

    I don't know if there's any chance of this or what but If the new CBA allows for a veteran's minimum that does not count against the cap (like in the NBA) then how awesome would that be for a player like Lidstrom?

    #5 Philadelphia Flyers vs. #4 Pittsburgh Penguins

    Not sure. He was pissed as f*** because he wasn't sure why either. He got crosschecked twice in the face? by Kubina I think it was. I didn't see any retaliation from him. But still, they kicked him out.

    Not a fan of the idea of a video game curse on Pavel Datsyuk and Calvin "Megatron" Johnson.

    Will Detroit win this series?

    Not feeling too great but I'm hoping for a 2012 New York Giants-like story.

    Yeah I couldn't believe that. Pens are up, what, 10-3, commit an icing and then they call a timeout. Wow.

    BAHAHAHAHAHA!!!... They kick out Cooke...

    #5 Philadelphia Flyers vs. #4 Pittsburgh Penguins

    I guess Pittsburgh was due for a performance like this. It's crazy that they have the modern-day versions of Gretzky (Sid) and Mario Lemieux (Malkin). How crazy would it have been decades ago if you had Gretzky and Mario Lemieux on the same team?

    Oh my God... Bushleague timeout? Kind of like what happened in the Islanders game?
