    @markhmasters: Mike Babcock says key factors in his decision: 1. What his wife thinks 2. Winning @markhmasters: Babcock had one preliminary discussion with wife yesterday & "that conversation didn't go very well. Didn't last that long." @markhmasters: Why didn't conversation with wife go well? "Got heated up pretty quick," Babcock says with a laugh @markhmasters: Babcock on coaching in Detroit: "When I went some place (new) before, there was always a better job. Theres no better job."

    @DennyKapp: Holland: "I think (Bab) is a fabulous coach... he's made our organization better. I respect he's pushed our players" http://t.co/2UKcpFk0YB @Bill_Roose: #RedWings Holland: "Did the players always like Scotty? Do they always like Babcock? Nah. I like that. I like when the boss makes you work." @HammerFox2: "We're trying to go younger...the one thing we don't get are the players that are stars right off the draft table." #Wings draft later @greggkrupa: Babcock more upset by loss than I have ever seen him. Voice quivered. Eyes teared, a bit. "Can't believe lost."

    should mrazek get #1 tag next season

    My issue with Thornton is *why*. Everyone ******* and makes fun of the Wings for signing guys in their mid 30s on the downside of their prime. Thornton embodies that. My issue is that signing Thornton would be the kind of thing the Wings would be *expected* to do. He's a prototypical Detroit Red Wings Signing . We need to step outside of our ******* comfort zone and try to fill in the middle--no more young guys in their early 20s with minimal experience. No more aging vets. I want prime meat, dammit! GIVE ME A 28 YEAR OLD STUD!!!!! *ahem* I also don't want to see Thornton stroke his rooster whilst wearing the winged wheel, but that's beside the point...
