Brendan Shanahan: a letter to my younger self
frankgrimes replied to jimmyemeryhunter's topic in General
that was actually quite funny really loved it -
Leafs' Ashton suspended 20 games for violating PED policy
frankgrimes replied to Smite's topic in General
This league is so ridiculous it's not even funny: slam someone through the glass...$ 2.500 fine when you are making 14.000.000 a year spear someone...$ 5.000 fine for a 6 mill per player slam an opponents face on the ice...14 games using performance enhancing help...20 games summary: f*** you NHL the whole front office needs to get cross checked by Steve Macintyre so they'll go back to their greedy, non integrity life. -
Enjoy it..it will be the same bulls*** as in europe where some clubs are not only selling out their jerseys but some are also changing their game-colors to match the ones of a sponsor. It's a horrible thing and makes buying jerseys almost useless because you want to represent a club not a damn sponsor when you are paying a good junk of money for that stuff. The day the NHL gets rid of that stupid current front-office can't come soon enough we need someone at the helm who is willing to protect the integrity and tradition of the sport. Rogers, ads on jerseys, less fighting and more and more showboaters entering the league...hockey is fast becoming something it shouldn't be.

It's not even a discussion Wings have nothing to show for it and Nashville - in the worst case - has a future 3 line center. Poile robbed Holland with that trade and it wasn't even close nor is it now.

I'm using optimum nutrition now gold standard + creatin tabs.

Yup, contenders are built from the nt out the Duo of monster/Howard is good but the defense save for Kronwall (who shouldn't be the pp qb), DeKeyser and Smith so far is not up to the task. Even if big E gets his game together, the top pairing still won't be as good as Wings fans are used to...so a gamble for a guy who isn't even in his prime yet might be worth it.

Get well soon monster

I said it before and I'll say it again, Myers is still growing into his body (hasn't filled out his massive frame yet) and I'm sure he will become much better as he ages. Is it a bit of a risk sure ? But I would do Jurco forMyers easily. The Sabrers maybe overvaluing him but the fact is, they don't have to trade Myers...Buffalo won't be even close to the cap for some time so Murray knows this if others want Myers they gotta pay a good price.

Weiss sent down to GR- conditioning assignment

I would love to have him back, for a great caphit of course he and Z had unreal chemistry. -
Exactly, he needs some time in the minors and bulk up a lot. Then bring him back up andhe will be their future second line center.

More often than not they are the most popular guys on a team.

THN: 30 NHL teams, 30 I-never-saw-this-coming starts for players

Johnny Hockey from the Flames, the guy is small, undersized but has unbelievable hands and even if others are trying to hit him he is too fast! Unbelievable talent -
Reminds me of my favorite Aaron Downey quote "Well..the way the Redwings responded it was a good bounding experience for us all.we can all grow together...you know I'm just going outthere and doing my job!...you just wanna stick up for your teammates and send a message around the league..hey if you wanna hit our guys go around and hit them but if you running around and have your ellbows up...there is gonna be someone sneaky coming around the corner!" Miss ya Downey :( but huge kudos to Big E for going against Nolan who is a tough customer.

After reading/seeing the lineup for both consoles, I think it's too early for me. Also, there still seems to be a lot of problems I am not interested in the online stuff so that's another reason for me to wait. So far the Ps4 seems to be the superior gaming and x1 the better "entertainment" console, since I'm only interested in gaming for sure it will be the PS4 but right now, I'd rather spend the money on a new android phone. So far the games seem to be incredible cutscene loaden, rushed and not ready at all poor showing from both.

I think nobody could have predicted that that being said I didn't like the signing from the getgo. I was concerned about the time Weiss missed and also wasn't sure if he would be a great fit for the Wings system. -

Undisputed heavyweight champion last year, great caphit loves the role of the bodyguard and chips in with a few points here and there ? Whats not to like ? -

Well no matter what people think of enforcer but McGrattan is more than just an enforcer, he is a decent tough as nails fourth liner who can play a little hockey too so the ideal prototype of a fourth line guy. There are only a handful of othe players willing to drop the gloves against Big Ern and you know what you get with him, an honest effort every shift, I would do this trade 10 out of 10 times -
Vintage film: Gordie Howe vs. Rocket Richard c. 1958-1960

Great song created a mp3 of it such a catchy tune farmboy from Canaaada -
Rask is elite when he is on but he definately is no Timmääää Thomas. But lets keep in mind that their current first pairing is Hamilton - Seidenberg
-
Bob Hartley would also be an interesting choice

Which makes me question how much input Babs had into the signing? I don't know but so far this is getting ridiculous. Whenever he gets his chance here, weiss better be running away with it otherwise I could see them exploring trade options. Maybe for Eriksson who doesn't fit with Boston -
Wings great Gordie Howe resting after 'serious stroke'
