Exactly. I dont want the Wings to pull off a miracle. I want them to win because they are better. When we play guys with zero upside (Andersson, Miller) over guys with huge upside (Jurco, Mantha), we are just wasting the opportunity to get to that upside. We need to ice our 12 best forwards, and we dont do that? "Do you want Jurco blocking shots like Miller?" Sure, why not. Miller hasnt missed a game in 22 years blocking shots. And our pk is mediocre, so what's it gonna hurt? It's not like Miller is lighting up the scoresheet. "Andersson is good on faceoffs and defensively responsible." Again, BFD. So what. Neither of these 2 guys can score. And our whole team is having a problem scoring goals 5 on 5. Get Mantha and Jurco in the line up. If we lose with them, then we can all say the team just isnt as good as it needs to be. But icing 10 of our best forwards just leaves everyone wondering what could have been.

Holland is the guy that should be on the hot seat. "We made a good effort at Suter and Parise, but in the end ..." Bullshyte. That loss set this franchise back 10 years. We offer them 10 mil each for 8 years each, and suddenly Detroit isnt that far away from their families. We cant afford that? Weiss - 5 mil per Howard - 5 mil per Ericsson - 4 mil per Quincey - 4 mil per Samuelsson - 3 mil per Cleary - 2 mil per Tootoo - 2 mil per Miller - 1 mil per Andersson - 1 mil per We could have afforded it if our GM want such a jackass. Zetterberg-Larkin-Parise Tatar-Datsyuk-Jurco Nyquist-Sheahan-Abdelkader Glendening-Helm-Athanasiou Pulkkinen/Mantha Suter-Kronwall Smith-DeKeyser Marchenko-Ouellet Kindl Mrazek McCollum You think we'd be worse with that lineup? Hell no.

Im not gonna wonder why we are not winning with Miller and Andersson in the lineup and Smith and Jurco out of it. Gotta play the best players to get the best performance.

Really? We are so piss poor 5 on 5, it scares the crap out of me. Praying for power plays sucks. I hate it.

Touche.

QFT

1 month here, and it's been said at least 5 times. Makes me laugh. It's like the holocaust is taking a back seat to Smith's gaff against Montreal.

There it is. Told you, kickazz.

Please bring back Smith-Kronwall, Blashill.

Engage?

And need to play him with 55.

And dont try to tell me Nyquist is LISTED at blah blah blah. He's a wimpy midget. This team needs a few guys that can bang. Not more 5'9" Euros playing ice capades.

I want to see the 6 million dollar man take his lickings now that Smith is not in the lineup. This guy is coughing up goals and racking up minuses right now like Newman eats muffin stumps. Smith would be nailed to a cross if he was wearing #25. 168 lbs, 174 lbs, 192 lbs, 187 lbs, 190 lbs, 186 lbs, 203 lbs. Only Hank and Dats play to their weights. The rest play like 5th grade midgets. We are way too small to compete right now. This team gets manhandled regularly.

3 wins in a row with Smith-Kronwall on top. Then Blashill decides to put Green in and boot Smith. We have sucked since. And that Washington game should have been 6-1 if Ovechkin has a normal night. Green SUCKS right now. Get his ass on the 3rd pairing and play him on the pp primarily. He is killing us.

Mike Green minus 3.

Speed kills We will win 3-2

All Smith's fault so far

Nooooo!! No logo hunters!

If you say that too loud, we will have Samuelsson re-signed. So use your quiet voice.

Mrazek is the man.

Seriously, they are going .500 and missing the playoffs.

Crosby dives a lot. Youre right.

Agreed. 5 would have been more comfortable, I think.

Smith in?

Use the interweb.
