  2. Holmstrom should be on the list too...drafted in the 10th round, 257th overall....

    Vladdy was drafted 221st overall!!!

    And the WORST Wings pick....

    Joe Murphy - Drafted 1st overall...yeah he ended up playing 779 games in the NHL, but never at the level originally expected...and he was a MAJOR bust for the Wings...

    I could think of better names then that

    Disappoinments

    Fred Williams: 4th overall; 1976; 44 GP in NHL

    Mike Blaisdell: 11th overall; 1980; 343 GP in NHL (192 with Wings)

    Brent Fedyk: 8th overall; 1985; 470 GP in NHL (155 with Wings)

    Kory Kocur: 17th overall; 1988; 0 GP in NHL; 146 GP in AHL

    Curtis Bowen: 22nd overall; 1992; O GP in NHL; 145 in AHL


  3. First of all, welcome to LGW.com and second of all, why would we do that, plus why would Philly trade their best young d-man and #2 pick overall for Datsyuk and his new 7 year deal.

    If we were planning on trading Datsyuk, we would have one either done it, by now or never would have gave him such a contract. He is a large piece of our future, as well as Pitkanen is for Philly.


  4. This made my day :lol:

    Alexei Yashin to the Islanders was the best thing that EVER happened to the Ottawa Senators. The Islanders got rid of him, so why do we want their garbage? Why would anyone wan't that garbage? Or that contract?

    :thumbdown::thumbdown:

    :hehe:


  5. Heres what we got under contract

    Nick Lidstrom-7.6 million

    Pavel Datsyuk-6.7 million

    Nicklas Kronwall-3 million

    Henrik Zetterberg-2.65 million

    Tomas Holmstrom-2.25 million

    Kris Draper-2.1 million

    Mikael Samuelsson-1.2 million

    Andreas Lilja-1 million

    Johan Franzen-941,666

    Kirk Maltby-888,333

    Chris Osgood-850,000

    Valtteri Filppula-710,000

    Dan Cleary-662,000

    Brett Lebda-650,000

    Kyle Quincey-510,000

    Tomas Kopecky-450,000

    Totals-32,161,999

    Cap-44,000,000 (I believe)

    Room-11,838,001

    Our Potential FA's

    Mathieu Schneider-will depend on salary, wants about 3.3 million and that aint happening

    Danny Markov-Wings interested in keeping him if price is within reason

    Chris Chelios-will be welcomed back if interested

    Robert Lang-if we lose out on Bertuzzi......it won't matter haha he's gone :clap:

    Todd Bertuzzi-chances of coming back are good, but will likely test market

    Kyle Calder-not likely to be back

    Dominik Hasek-will be welcomed back if interested

    Jiri Hudler (RFA)-restricted, will most likely except qualifying offer

    one player I could see in a Wings uniform is Slava Kozlov.


  6. Guerin would be a good pickup, but after seeing what the Blues got for Tkachuk, I am afraid what we would have to give up for him. Also trading within the division is not something you do.

    I would be much happier with a guy like Gary Roberts or JR. They would probably only want a draft pick for these guys and they have one year deals.


  7. Is there any real deals going around that is worth anyones time around here, because I don't know how many times I have seen a rumor surrounding Pavel Datsyuk and Robert Lang! How many times have you seen Patrick Marleau to the Wings on here or Forsberg or Nabokov or Gagne or Souray or Samsonov? That sounds like an all star team to me. :angry:
