    Wings sign D Mike Commodore to 1-year, $1m contract

    I suppose so... Ugh... I hate professional athletes on twitter.

    Yeah but she was only supposed to be their school teacher. What's McCrimmon's excuse?

    Is there a problem with Babs?

    I can't recall any details but I remember hearing stories about Scotty notoriously and constantly on Stevie's case, especially in the early years of their working relationship together. If there ever was a period in which Scotty didn't go after Stevie then it was probably in the waning years of his career.

    Chicago's Getting Meaner

    The Blackhawks are a bunch of meanie faces and poopy heads. Especially Kane.

    Wings looking at Ty Conklin

    Oh alright. I've always thought that it was a bad idea to bring up a player's name that you haven't signed yet no matter what. But maybe since this is after July 1st that it's only a bad idea in the sense that you could be driving up your own purchasing price. I know context matters too but things like this can be pretty fickle.

    Much of the time the relationship between a coach and a player seems to be better if the player doesn't like the coach. It's the coach's job to push their players and squeeze every little bit of effectiveness that they can. A lot of times feelings get hurt but those who have some mental toughness use that as motivation to be better.

    Wings looking at Ty Conklin

    In the interview on WDFN this morning, Kenny mentioned Ty Conklin's name but they obviously haven't signed him yet. Stupid question - Does that count as tampering?

    on Scotty Bowman... You hated him for 364 days of the year, and on the 365th day you received your Stanley Cup Ring. Steve Shutt

    I'd still love for Ozzie to pass Sawchuk on the wins total but I'm not getting my hopes up.

    Buffalo signs Ville Leino to 6-year, 27m contract

    Wow. Which other teams out there don't have a quality #1 center? Toronto comes to mind unless they made a huge acquisition that slipped by me, which is fairly likely.

    RUMOR: Garnet Exelby Signs 2-Way with Wings

    Nothing on capgeek yet.

    Wiz is a dick.

    Wings general manager Ken Holland said he didn’t see the quote and then added, “I take that as a real compliment. That’s a tremendous compliment. For us to accomplish what we we’ve accomplished and we don’t pay market value that’s a compliment.” http://redwingsfront.wordpress.com/2011/07/05/market-value/

    Wish I could take all the credit but that was very much a group post.

    Wings sign D Mike Commodore to 1-year, $1m contract

    He's just a little bit of an idiot with his twitter and complaints to the media about his coaches and so he has rubbed some fans the wrong way. The hope is that he'll learn a little bit from the notorious "Lidstrom locker room effect." Lidstrom is one of the best players to ever play the game, captain of the Red Wings and yet he shows no ego. Therefore, in theory, no one else is allowed to either. But again, it's just a theory.

    This year's prospects

    I love Callahan and I think he'll be a Red Wing one day but I don't think his transition into the AHL will be smooth at all. Far from it.

    Wings offered Jovanovski 2 years, $5 million

    Too bad Tipper did though. Maybe he was just playing the media game trying to get more calls though. Or at least, I hope so.

    Wings re-sign Eaves to 3-year, $3.6m contract

    If Eaves continues to take steps forward into Dan Cleary territory then the Wings just need to revive a relatively young solid third line center with good size and you'll have your redemption line. Cleary-????-Eaves.
