    Wings Make Offer to Danny D!

    I'm going to second and third this. Hoping, hoping, hoping.

    Wings Make Offer to Danny D!

    Maybe the Wings are waiting for Lidstrom to fly into town to make the Dekeyser signing announcement. I should post this "insider information" on twitter!

    Wings Make Offer to Danny D!

    Who's trusting wannabe-sources? We're posting what is appearing on twitter and other sites. It's up to YOU to decide whether to believe it. Having said that, another tweep with just 220 followers claims: Wombat Hockey ‏@wombathockey 3m Take this with grain of salt, but it is believed a darkhorse team not previously on his short list is favorite for Dan Dekeyser

    FYI, "The Rumor Wire" on twitter has only 90something followers, so take his/her updates with a grain of salt.

    The Rumor Wire ‏@TheRumorWire 10s Official announcement should be within the next hour or so.

    The Rumor Wire ‏@TheRumorWire 49s I'm being told Danny DeKeyser has signed with the Detroit Red Wings. Stay tuned, more to come.

    Justin Verlander ‏@JustinVerlander 10m Today is going to be a great day. Big news coming! Now Dekeyser will delay again, waiting for Justin's news to break.

    What else do we have to do on a Friday when many of us aren't working?

    Wishful thinking on Son of a Wing's part, I'm afraid. I seriously hope I'm wrong though and will be happy to eat crow. Bring on Dekeyser in the red and white!

    Wings Make Offer to Danny D!

    I'm hearing on twitter that his decision will come within yet another 30 minutes (12:20 pm as I write this). I can't believe that the wait is a good sign for Detroit. Not buying the "Iginla hoopla" excuse. Why so conflicted Danny? Says the guy posting on a sports forum on teh interwebs.

    I hope I'm wrong, but the longer this goes on, I think it becomes less likely that he signs with Detroit. Another team may have offered him something he is having a hard time refusing. I suspect he is debating between what his head and his heart want.

    Thanks for the quick response!

    Question. I'm as eager to hear where Dekeyser signs as everyone else. That being said, why was he undrafted?

    Larry Murphy Fired by FSD

    That was my point, other than Hogan being utterly unimpressive.

    Not to derail the thread, but using the "XBox analogy" on a sports forum is akin to yelling "RACISM" in every political debate. It's tired and overused. Same with those who accuse others of living in "mom's basement." Let's toss these lame insults. We can do better! /unhighjack

    Average girl is average. The Belle Tire girl 15 years past her heyday is better to look at than Hogan.

    I certainly hope this isn't the plan. Elliot is a stiff robot on TV. I can't watch him.

    Larry Murphy Fired by FSD

    Wasn't Larry Sorenson fired mid-season by the Tigers for alcohol related issues? It's not unprecedented ... if Murph genuinely has a problem.

    An appeal to heaven

    Sorry to interrupt, but can you -- please, God! -- find the SHIFT key? Thanks.
  21. Exactly. Right now this Wings team is playing very well in spurts, not so well in others. Regardless, the team is exciting to watch because, for the first time in decades, it is genuinely relying on youth and its farm system. The Wings are giving us a glimpse into the future and it doesn't look as dim as many of us feared, especially after the season opener against St. Louis. To trade away valuable picks and/or young players for a rent-a-player at the deadline would be a shame.

    Favorite thing about the Wings this season

    Brunner, Kindl, Tatar, and, frankly, moving on. With so many youngsters joining the lineup, this team harkens back to the Bryan Murray era. Lots of new faces with eyes on the future.
  23. Good news! Helm will be our deadline acquisition.
  24. What does that have to do with it? Until a couple of years ago, CHI hadn't won a Cup in a long time. Were they not a rival when Chelios (as a Hawk) was blasting shots from the point in OT back in the 90s? Don't forget that nail-biting series against St. Louis when Yzerman scored the winner in OT. Was St. Louis not a rival because they hadn't won the Cup? TO was a great rival to Detroit until the Leafs were shipped East. It was a shame it happened and should be rectified.
  25. I'm too old to agree with most of this, aside from not wanting to lose CHI. I had standing room only tickets in '93 when we lost in OT to Toronto in game 7 of the playoffs. Still bitter about that one and eager for revenge.
