    Never said it was. Just pointing out how ridiculous it really is.

    All good fun.

    I wonder if Anaheim had to buy out McGrattan's contract from Sher-Wood? They were feeding him sawdust so he'd crap hockey sticks.

    Maybe Blashill is more open to fighting than Babcock. Ericsson seems to do okay, but he rarely fights anyone noteworthy regarding fighting skill.

    This ^

    After Tootoo being buried in the minors it seemed everyone was afraid to throw down, so we had guys like Miller and Quincey dropping the gloves. The liberties opposing players would take on our guys made me sick, and I still want to see an imprint of Chris Neil's face in the boards.

    That was the point. Green isn't a druggie piece of crap, so I don't really care if he wears 25. It's not like the guy guy typically associated with it was a class act or anything.

    Man I made an issue out of nothing with my comment.

    I see McCarty, Probert, and Kocur in a class all their own, so 24, 25, and 26 will always remind me of them. (Probert and Chelios pretty much swapped jerseys.) That's it. It's not a personal attack on any players, I don't care what they do off the ice.

    I find it funny the people on the Wings facebook page complaining, did anybody have a problem when Emmerton wore #25 (with the actual number not the fact that Emmerton was actually on the ice)?

    Who?

    Who's to say that he doesn't make the fourth line or at least get a call up here and there? Even if he only gets 2 call ups I hope it's against Dallas and Ottawa .

    Are people really pissed off about a depth signing probably around league minimum? Just be happy the Wings finally have a winger who has great size and will win some battles along the boards.

    I hope he finds his home with this organization and learns to use his size and become a hockey player. I have nothing against an enforcer but I don't want a caveman on skates, I want a power forward that doesn't put up with BS and can contribute.

    Last year this team got embarrassed by Boston, this year they were better but after watching Stanley Cup playoffs is obvious that the Wings are far away from cup contention. Tampa will only get better and the West is well just loaded.

    Anyhow just don't rush Mantha, Larkin and hope that Pasha can stay healthy.

    Year before that we took the cup champs to 7 after knocking out Anaheim (who would have wiped the ice with Chicago), don't leave that out. But we lost because we suck so bad and should have tanked that year as well. You talk like we're Toronto....the Boston series was a tragedy yes, but give the guys the benefit of the doubt and at least see how they do with a new coach/system before you write them off.

    As for Larkin, I don't see a need to rush him. I put zero games but he may see a few games if injuries are bad or we decide to rest the big guys after an early playoff clinch.
