    Holtby Asking for $8M

    Yup. It's particularly popular with people who use "girl" as an insult. It's pretty funny when you realize that the anti-analytics crowd is really just anti-information.

    Wings sign Brad Richards 1 yr, $3 million

    I don't understand your insistence on insulting Franzen, especially when it has come to light what kind of injuries he's been dealing with over the years.

    Couldn't it be possible that holland is saying that based on what blashill told him?

    New Ultra-Enhanced Video/Renderings of the Arena District

    Oh, there they go. There they go, every time I start talkin' 'bout boxing, a white man got to pull Rocky Marciano out they ass. That's their one, that's their one. Rocky Marciano! Rocky Marciano! Let me tell you something, once and for all-Rocky Marciano was good; but compared to Joe Louis, Rocky Marciano ain't s***.Joe Louis was 75 years old when they fought.

    Man, I don't know s***. If I did I'd probably be in Biotech. In all seriousness, judge Rosen, who acted as mediator between Detroit and its creditors, taught my evidence class. He had some pretty fascinating insight on the process. I would have been happier with preserving the budding, but the creditors were not going to pass up that real estate, especially with the state footing the bill for demolition.

    GMR, I understand the sentiment. I'm usually the first to call for the preservation of historic buildings. But blowing up the joe was necessary to appease detroit's creditors. It pretty much came down to handing over the property under the joe or the artwork in the DIA. I also agree that corporate arenas suck and Europe rules.

    #73 OA - Defenseman Vili Saarijarvi

    You may want to break these up then. You have size, strength, and hitting as one quality when you can have one or two of those qualities but not the other one(s).

    Lucic to LA

    It's cool if you can let it go. I prefer to allow my hatred to fester; probably not healthy though.

    Lucic to LA

    He tried to neuter Dekeyser, and it wasn't even his first time. That's more than enough for me.

    Will Wings Revisit Signing Phaneuf?

    Who says hockey is supposed to be anything or any one way? The game you want is vastly different from what hockey started as. You're just arbitrarily picking a period that you like then saying "this is how it's supposed to be."

    2015 SCF : Chicago Blackhawks vs. Tampa Bay Lightning

    I'll always remember the clip of him putting on a clip on bow tie while talking about how stylish he is.

    That's one hell of an unfortunate name.

    Babcock granted permission to talk to other teams

    back in December, babs said this was the most talented team since 09. It's funny how that's changed.

    Kronwall suspended one game

    I thought consideration is given to whether the player put himself in a vulnerable position. The only reason any contact with the head is because kucherov is nearly bending over.
  17. I have little doubt that Howard will do well. By then he'll have a had more than enough time to fully recover from his injury. As for Mrazek, you're going to have to find where I said he belongs in the hall of fame and point it out to me. Regardless, he doesn't have to be a hall of gamer to be a starter.
  18. He didn't get beat by just any rookie goalie, he got beat out mahf***in' Petr Mrazek. In all seriousness, the best way to go is to allow Howard to get a significant number of starts then trade him at the deadline. Of course, his ntc complicates things, but I'm sure he'd waive it for a chance to be a starter again.
  19. I never said "goon", I just knew what he was talking about. Also, i know there wasn't a fight, but several people said there was nothing wrong coburn manhandling glendenning from behind because this is hockey. It comes from permissive attitudes towards fighting.
  20. Nah man, it's hockey. It has a history of fighting, so this kind of stuff must be tolerated. It's part of the game.
  21. Imagine what would happen in any other sport if a player injured another player after the whistle.
