a win in the 6,000th game of the franchise would be nice

not really.. from reading the Islanders forums their fans want him gone and iirc he was asking for a 5 mil per year offer to resign

http://www.detroitnews.com/article/20140204/SPORTS0103/302040120 “I don’t envision us trading away players who could be part of our future,” general manager Ken Holland said. “Those are the players other teams will be asking about.” Hopefully so! I really don`t get all these trade rumours concerning Gaborik or Vanek..it`s like some sportswriters just sit at their desks, bored, with nothing to write about, because seriously, is there a sane GM in the NHL that would brag about a trade in the making before it`s done, ignoring the chance that someone decides to trump his offer? And then they just make stuff like this up, without even thinking about the cap crunch of the teams involved..

that sentence was aimed at Jurco, who hasn`t played a single game in the NHL at that point, but some were expecting him to be the savior of the wings offense

nope, 3rd place in all major categories (man games lost/cap hit of injured players/salary hit) http://www.mangameslost.com/nhl-man-games-lost-chip-tmitt-january-28-2014/

nope, just a NTC..if he`s such a good leader and mentor to the kids, I think his leadership might be better used in GR..up with the main team they already have Alfie, Z, Pav, Kronner who can all lead by example, not by being a motivational speaker

and the assisst goes to Mule`s crotch

well, I was laughing when i read it, and none taken

hah, my bad, I thought that was a legit phrase

don`t know if anybody mentioned this in this thread, but if so it`s still worth repeating http://hfboards.hockeysfuture.com/showthread.php?t=1589969 seems like therien lost the locker room, half of his players want him gone

slowly climbing into the top 5 in the OHL scoring race..currently tied for 7th place not bad for a 4th round pick

don`t know exactly for how long or how serious it was, but IIRC he missed at least 6 games

he was injured

Ericsson in, Gustavsson in, Alfredsson still out, no word on Pav atm, but both were skating today..Kronwall and Z had a "maintenance day"

Griffins ratings after the first half of the season http://griffinscentral.com/articles/012014.html some of you will surely be thrilled that Callahan is on the top

Per Khan: Ken Holland said he's been told Howard's injury is minor and that he's day-to-day. Status for Wednesday to be determined. hopefully this doesn`t drag on to be a week-to-week injury

Athanasiou is really tearing it up tonight..4 goals in 2 periods

wow, Toronto got outshot badly again..by the Devils

Yup, looks like a little man on a mission out there..love it

Yeah I know, but after training camp it all depends on the roster situation..maybe they keep him as a healthy reserve player (considering Helm`s frequent injuries) maybe not..we can just guess at this point,but as I said, I doubt they`ll just let him walk, without even giving him a qualifying offer..or I`m completely wrong and that`s what happens, who can say, with the way things turned out last summer

I doubt they will just let Ferraro walk druing the offseason..they will make him a qualifying offer and give him a chance to outplay the competition

jimmy is going to be the backup tomorrow..so he`s probably fine http://kuklaskorner.com/tmr/comments/red-wings-coach-mike-babcock-tells-fsds-keating-that-jimmy-howards-out-for

The problem with this is that Emmerton was playing 2nd/3rd line minutes since he came down to GR, while Callahan put up some great numbers while playing on the 4th line,and only then did he see more time with quality linemates..I`m sure he will be a huge upgrade over some of the plugs on the bottom 6 next year, if only for his willingness to hit

Z and Alfie were the two players that had a "maintenance day" yesterday..with Alfie out today, it makes you wonder if Z`s back is giving him trouble again

wow, if this were a 24/7 episode, it would`ve been the best ever
