Didn't notice him much out there, so not good or bad I suppose. I like him better than Andersson though.

What about something like this? It would be something pretty different, but it would be a great way to incorporate the octopus.

It's such a good pairing that Smith managed to flatten Zetterberg and get a penalty right after

Montreal probably wants a new coach and are hoping Semin will make him quit.

My sister passed away about 3 weeks ago from cancer.
A couple of seasons ago she had a chance to go to a Wings game.
My dad had been in contact with the Wings people and they were trying to work out who she might want to meet if she got the chance. It was up to me to ask her who she wanted to meet. Of course, we were trying to surprise her so I didn't want to just come out and say "Hey you're probably going to get to meet one of the players, who do you want to meet?"
So i would ask, "Hey Care, if you got to meet anybody on the wings who would you want to meet?"
"DAN CLEARY!" she'd exclaim.
So a couple of days later I would ask again. "DAN CLEARY!!" was the answer I got again.
She knew they were going to be going to the game when she went down to Ann Arbor, so I tried again, "No..Seriously....If you really got to meet one of the current Wings players when you go to the game, who would it be?" I could not have given her a bigger hint without flat out just telling her!
"DAN CLEARY!"
So she and my dad and uncle went to the game and had a good time. Then the game was over. As they are trying to 'leave' the building, my uncle is leading the way with directions on where to go with my dad and sister following him. She still has no idea.
They end up in an area where she figures they aren't supposed to be. "Are we allowed down this way?"
Finally they end up standing against a wall with a bunch of other people with a Wings/arena employee telling them to just wait where they are.
"Are we meeting players?!" She had finally figured it out.
While they were waiting she felt she had accidentally bumped into someone behind her. She turned to say she was sorry to them. But nothing came out of her mouth. It was Nicklas Lidstrom that she had bumped into!! (This was during his last season when he wasn't playing due to his ankle) He saw she was trying to apologize and told her it was no big deal. Other players like Pavel and Zetterberg had walked through the hallway where they were waiting.
Finally Dan Cleary came out and asked "Are you Carrie?"
I don't remember much of what else happened (I wasn't there, just heard the stories afterward), but he was super nice to her, took a couple of pictures, and signed some things.
The jersey says
"To: Carrie Best Wishes
Your friend, Dan Clear 11"
He also had a signed bobble head sent to our house a couple of weeks later.
I always teased her about wanting to meet Cleary over anybody else, but she really enjoyed the whole experience

Hf boards comment on him.
Found it really funny.

Call him up everytime they play Toronto and have him punch Kadri in the face repeatedly while staring directly at Babcock.

But who's going to step up and protect Datsyuk from mean ol' Corey Perry?...oh right Datsyuk.

I almost think that Holland wasn't too confident he would be able to sign anyone so that's why he said that but maybe Weiss was bought out because Richards had shown interest in signing here.

No Yandle. We already got an offensive dman today.
Edit: Jimmy said it before I could.

Shattenkirk>>>yandle.
Plus signing Green makes yandle redundant.

Congrats Eaves

Lmao the draft page on NHL.com had to use and extra line just for Van Pottelberghe

Why aren't we getting pro ready players with big bodies after the first round?! Holland is doing such a s***ty job in this draft!

Instead of the shootout we should have 1v1

Exactly my point. Neither of us know so let's not pretend to know.

Unfortunately he was used as a checker because Babcock saw a big body and said power forward but I think I see him as more of a playmaker that could learn a lot from Datsyuk

Well played, but isn't Krispy Kreme based out of the Carolinas? Their glazed donuts blow away anything Tim Horton's bakes.
