WingsAlways

Unbelievable!

I've never really saw him play, so yeah I took his size for granted. Last thing we need is another big body that plays like he's 5'6". I know if I could look Zdeno Chara in the eyes without having to look up I'd use that to my advantage.

Z!!!!!!!!!

He's an effective net front presence, last night it paid off with the sweet pass from Gus..

I want to see what Weiss can do, It could be Cleary though.

I'd love to have him on the team for his size and physical presence alone, but he's no Norris winner. He'd be another D-man that would have to take time to learn the system.

WTG Howie.

Let's go Wings!!!

Let's Go Wings!

That is great lol

I would love this deal, sadly I think the return would be insane. They would want Mantha/Nyquist plus a 1st round pick in addition to Kindl/Weiss.

Let's Go Wings!!!

http://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/hockey/trial-date-set-in-steve-moores-lawsuit-against-todd-bertuzzi/article15073970/ The latest trial date set in Steve Moore’s lawsuit against Todd Bertuzzi will see the case finally come to Ontario Superior Court after 10 years and six months to the day when Bertuzzi attacked Moore during an NHL game. On March 8, 2004, Bertuzzi, then playing for the Vancouver Canucks, jumped Moore, then 25, punched him repeatedly and drove him into the ice. Moore sustained three broken vertebrae, a concussion and lasting brain damage. He never played in the NHL again and in 2006 launched a lawsuit against Bertuzzi and the Canucks seeking more than $38-million in damages for his lost hockey career and a post-hockey career Moore says he is denied because of the effects of his injuries. After years of legal wrangling over everything from the proper jurisdiction to a secret deal between Bertuzzi, the Canucks and former Canucks head coach Marc Crawford, the case will come to trial in Superior Court in Toronto on Sept. 8, 2014. The jury trial is expected to last up to three months. The previous trial date was September, 2012 but when Moore’s lawyer, Tim Danson, learned of a secret agreement between Bertuzzi, Crawford and the company that owned the Canucks in 2008, Orca Bay, there was another delay. The agreement saw Bertuzzi drop his third-party claim against Crawford and then the Canucks, Crawford and Bertuzzi dismissed all cross-claims between each other. It also called for Bertuzzi, Crawford and the Canucks to share the cost of any damages awarded to Moore but the court did not make public how the three parties would split the payments. Danson asked the court to reveal the details of the agreement. The court eventually allowed Danson to see the agreement but did not make it public. I wonder what will become of this?

I wonder if he gave himself a NTC...

I woke up today and hoped this was all a bad alcohol induced dream, nope. You know with this move and the Quincey signing, I wonder if Holland has the mojo to steal Emdog back from the KHL?

I wouldn't mind it if he would stay healthy until the playoffs.

I bet Tatar could drink Kane under the table.

^ This. We're not the Oilers, in fact we have something that's rare in this league and elsewhere anymore. Integrity. (and Datsyuk)

This made my day. If I still lived in Michigan I would so go to a game dressed as a police officer and wink at him every time he's on the ice.

Dan Cleary will be coach by then.

Very well said my friend! July 1st is both exciting and agonizing. We fans look forward to this day all year long and after an early playoff exit, it seems to be a small light in the darkness. When we have such high expectations and then do nothing, emotions tend to run hot. The fact that we were dissed by players not wanting to come here made those emotions run hotter and Ken Holland becomes the primary target. It's nice to see some much needed positive energy and logic.

Just found out this wonderful bit of news, I ain't mad though. To be honest I'm not even surprised.

Welcome to Detroit, Andy Miele. It's good to see us getting bigger up front...oh wait.

I'm loving the whole Original Six theme of these playoffs. Det vs Bos, Bos vs Mtl, Mtl vs NYR, and the winner vs Chi granted they win.

I'm going to be the odd man out and say the Habs take game 7, I was leaning towards Montreal since the series started. I think about as highly of the Habs as I do the Bruins, but Montreal really knows how to get into their heads.
