    No he is great and someone to admire. There are a ton of idiots around our game but Don Cherry is far from being an idiot.

    A great hockey mind, who has seen and witnessed it all who also happens to show national pride. Hockey is better of with guys like Don Cherry there should be more guys like him. Glad you aren't running the team then.

    If only someone with size and a great shot would be waiting in the AHL right now..

    With the exception of maybe 2 guys (King Henrik and Price)= there aren't any goaltenders able to stop that laserbeam. One heck of a shot

    Wings fans, I need your help -- Octopus etiquette

    Fixing this mess....

    Last year the team took him to arbitration so Danny would have the option to take them to arbitration now, sign a 1 year deal and then become UFA.

    ECQF Game 1 GTD: Red Wings at Tampa Bay Lightning, 7:00 ET

    Tampa in 6 wings couldn't even defeat the Rangers B team without King Henrik. Hope I'm wrong and everyone plays their heart out for Pasha one last time

    Fixing this mess....

    No not this year but if he signs a 1 year contract and takes the team to arbitration someone will offer him a better deal that's for sure. To me it doesn't even matter guy is the Wings best and most reliable defenseman and a Michigan kid, especially going forward pay him.

    Flyers Chairman Ed Snider passed away

    http://www.tsn.ca/flyers-founder-snider-passes-away-at-83-1.468364 Prayers and condolences to all the whole Snider family. I think the guy has been a tremendous owner, the Flyers basically had a blank check each and every year. Probably the biggest Flyers fan ever. Not only did the Flyers lose a great owner I think the whole hockeyworld has lost a great hockeyfan and an even better person. Owners who aren't in it for the quick buck or to increase the "franchse value" by making business first decisions are the best owners one could hope for, as we've seen firsthand with Mr. I.

    Fixing this mess....

    Danny D. has been the Wings defender this and last year, if the Wings aren't going to pay him someone else will pretty simple

    Mantha

    exactly the guy is not a fourth line player, a fourth liner is an energy guy who provide a physicality , energy and of course hits everything that moves. Anderson isn't that not even close but hey Mantha is big, young with a great shot son of course Amdersson has to play over him, unreal

    The Holiday tradition: 2016 Draft thoughts.....

    Nor the next Eichel, Matthews, Laine or Puljujarvi..but thankfully a guy who has so far exceeded expectations in Larkin. I think the Wings should try everything in their power to trade into the top 10 and get either Chychrun or Juolevi.

    WCQF : San Jose Sharks vs. Los Angeles Kings

    This series could be a sweep for the Kings
  19. Well he shouldn't risk his well being too. Hank is one of my favourite Wings but let's be honest here thanks to injuries his prime was cut short and his decline is sadly and I hate to admit that almost too fast. If the Wings can ease to load on him, play the guy on the Wing and or as a 3 line center I think he could be able to pull out three more years but if not he's probably done as an effective player. Is he going to retire and walk away from 20 mill? I highly doubt that no sane person would do this. But man has Kenny cut his work out for him this summer, 1. find a number 1 defenseman 2. a superstar 2 way center and 3. prepare for the post Z era - kicking the tires or looking for a hockeytrade finally won't cut it anymore some packages and UFA signings will be needed because there is no way the Wings are going to be able to fix all of that internally, especially not the defense.
  20. All I can say is there aren't enough words, pictures or videos to sum up how much joy I've been having watching this guy make other NHLers look like beer league players for over a decade now. Also loved the way he conducted himself, Pasha could make you look stupid and flatout amateuerish but he never ever did some over the top celebrations, sometimes it looked like he would just prefer to go back to the center ice win his faceoff and do it again without making a big deal about it. Pasha you will be missed, all the best in Russia and hopefully you'll bei n the HHOF one day god knows you deserve it.
  21. never heard of the guy before so i guess he is another one of those annoying wannabe experts.

    WCQF : Minnesota Wild vs. Dallas Stars

    Stars in 6 simply because the wild are having a much better defense

    WCQF : Chicago Blackhawks vs. St. Louis Blues

    Backes captain serious is going to be epic too and don't forget Seabrook has to answer for his blindside hit on Backes to Reeves too in some sort of form

    WCQF : Chicago Blackhawks vs. St. Louis Blues

    I think this is the last chance for their core. If they can get past Chicago everything is possible but the Hawks are their kryptonite so I guess Hawks in 7
  25. Well this would be the fault of people getting their hopes up for nothing. I still believe he either goes home or signs with an up and coming team like Buffalo
