    That’s elite playmaking by Backstrom.

    Welcome to the NHL. Erat dumps DeKeyser? No call. DeKeyser dumps Erat? Call Why? Because Detroit already had 2 PPs. Now it’s Washington’s turn. All hail the king of fairness!!!!!

    No s***. Glendenning’s line got butt slapped two straight shifts.

    Would you be ok with this roster?

    I'm not talking about guys that should have retired two years ago. I'm referring to guys like Dan Boyle, Kimmo Timonen, or (heaven forbid) Jagr. Guys that can still play, willinging to sign a one year deal. Plus this year's mess was due to cap space. The Wings will have plenty next year. Also, I'm not saying that I want this, just that Kenny might do it. Agreed.

    Datsyuk is lazy and he sucks TM

    Would you be ok with this roster?

    Yes. And I can totally see Holland signing someone in this mold to a one year Gonchar-type deal. Same goes for a forward. Stop gaps that come off the books when the kids are ready.

    All movie Character team

    You absolutely have to put Doug Glatt and Ross Rhea on the 4th line.

    Mark Frazer (TOR) for Abney, Hartikanen (EDM)

    Much needed move by the Oilers.

    The Hudler Factor

    I miss Filpulla a bit. Hudler? Not at all. Although he was good for a laugh.

    Lines Thread

    Two significant things for sure. Cleary scratched, and the start of the "Andersson on the wing" experiment. Hopefully Andy plays well on Helm's wing. It would greatly reduce the pains of having a log jam up the middle when/if the team gets healthy.

    Is it 1970 again?

    There is one thing I can think of, in retrospect, that Holland should have done to prepare for the post Lidstrom era: Summer, 2009. He should have packaged Franzen, Filpulla (while they were hot - coming off two good playoff runs) along with prospects and/or draft picks to acquire a young blue chip defensemen like Ekman-Larsen, and kept Hossa. Instead, he lost Hossa for nothing.

    Is it 1970 again? I dunno. I do know I’m not wearing Bell-bottoms. But I did watch “American Hustle”. I’m so confused

    Trade deadline fast approaching - who should we target?

    There are about 18 threads I could post this in. http://www.mlive.com/redwings/index.ssf/2014/01/red_wings_ken_holland_not_much.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+detroit-redwings+(Detroit+Red+Wings+-+MLive.com) “We like our team kids”

    Who Sits Next? Speculation Thread

    Lefty my man, you're just being melodramatic if you think Tatar's ever going to be a healthy scratch again.

    Next Seasons Needs/Team Future

    Hopefully that ends up being Mantha.

    Who Sits Next? Speculation Thread

    The same can be said for Sheahan. IF everyone gets healthy he'd be the 4th C on the depth chart after Datsyuk, Weiss, and Helm. If he's only going to get 4th line minutes with Drew Miller and Eaves as wingers, he'd be better off in Grand Rapids.

    1/26 GDT: Panthers 5 @ Red Wings 4 (SO)

    Sounds to me like Babcock's endorsing the kids and trying to send a message to Holland.

    Buckle down boys. No more penalties and sloppy d-zone play.
