Another post. s***.

They killed it. Nice.

Great. PK.

lol

Mraz!!!

Holy f***. Tampa would have scored ten seconds into that.

Pass it around..take one shot. lol

f*** the PP SUCKS!!!!

post.

5 on 3 coming. If they can't convert there's no hope.

Here we go....

They probably won't care. Holland is the man for the job for them. Now and forever.

Not overly optomistic, but it can be done. The games have been pretty close. Wings just have to cash in on PPs and some of those great chances they've somehow missed. That and stop taking stupid penalties, especially at the worst times (Errorsson..i'm looking at you) because they def have our number there. Mrazek will give them a chance to win. Just come out flying and win it for Pav, so at the very least he can go out at home in Game 6. But that's a whole other game..focus on this one and do what you need to do. GO WINGS!!!

Yeah we didn't need Jim Nill either. Dallas up 3-1 in the series.

So glad we got rid of Eaves. And a player named Dumba.

Still no news of a call up with the team on the ropes going to Tampa. f***in idiots.

lol

Agreed, but ya never know what can happen. Anaheim sweeping a stacked Detroit roster coming off a cup win in the first round in 2003 comes to mind.

Agreed on everything. The whole Weiss thing was a disaster, but he also wasn't given a fair shot by Babcock. Tootoo should have been kept, but again, Babcock. Holland does have too much loyalty to certain players. They won him a cup almost ten years ago and he still thinks they're every bit as good.

LOL The league is worried about a player calling a ref a name, yet they allow teams to have their ice girls wear skirts that don't even cover their ass. lol

Also, Hossa was kind of a bonus that fell in Holland's lap. He wasn't looking to sign anyone because he still had his cup winning roster together. Hossa's agent contacted him because he wanted to play for Detroit and when Holland had the option, he took it. He was the deadline aquisition that played all season.

Hossa would have signed, but he wanted a longer term than Holland offered I think. Chicago gave it to him. 12 years!!

Well, TRUE Chicago fans would be fine with it i'm sure. I know a couple guys I went to highschool with 20 years ago that have always been diehard Hawks fans, even through their really bad seasons. They know these winning seasons will end eventually. But most of their fanbase seems to be on the bandwagon, so yeah, there would be alot of pissed off "fans" I guess.

Even if Holland wanted to move Z, I doubt he could. No one's gonna want his 6 million+ cap hit for what he currently brings. Imagine 4-5 years from now. He'd have to retain most of his salary. lol

Before this season I thought different, but with the way Z is declining becoming more and more apparent, I think there may be a chance he retires before his contract is up. He'd be leaving alot of money on the table, but does he want to play 3rd/4th line minutes or be a healthy scratch in two or three years? Doesn't strike me as the type that would stick around for that, but I guess ya never know. Money can be a powerful thing. Kronwall and Errorson I figure they're stuck with though. I'm sure Kronwall still thinks he's a top D-man.
