But(t)s are for patting. I haven't decided yet what to do with revirement(t)s...

FTR, I'd be fine with Backes at 6 per if it were only a 2-3 year deal.

BoS wouldn't pay 7 million for Backes lol ( I mean he's not Sergei). I'd bring him in a heart beat if it was 2 years for 3 million. Then don't put him on 1C and have Sheahan as 2C and Z as 1C

Too bad we want him, right BoS?

"fans"

Say goodbye to the bandwagoners then.

This is how I pictured them pitching Stamkos an offer.

I *love* Backes, and it's no secret that I've wanted him on the Wings for awhile. That being said, I wouldn't sign him for more than a 3 year deal to start.

I'm embarrassed to admit that when I saw all the draft day photos of the kids going around I had a brief moment of "WTF why are they all wearing Vladdy's number smh."

@tkulfan: Holland said he'll focus on replacing Datsyuk in free agency....what does he want to do with this newly created cap space? "Spend it"
We shall see...
@Buccigross:Steve Yzerman basically told @KathrynTappen: "we made our best offer to Stamkos. Take it or leave it."

@THNKenCampbell: The Detroit Red Wings have just emerged as the frontrunner in the Steven Stamkos Sweepstakes, in my opinion.

A little song tonight sent out to one Ken Holland from Red Wings nation on WLGW.
Stax of wax and platters that matter, it's 11:39, 21 minutes before the witching hour on the eastern seaboard and here's Bette Midler

Ohhh I'd love Backes on the Wings.

He's played for more teams than Jagr
