    Abdlekader in, Osgood to start again.

    Since I started the thread, I guess I should chime in. I think that Miller will get benched. It's not fair really, but I think it solves a few issues. Z-D-H Filpulla and the two BFFs Hudler - Abdlekader - Modano Cleary - Helm - Eaves. Cleary gets bumped to the forth line = wake up call, without being benched. Modano maybe gets embarrassed that a hard working player like Miller sits over him. Abdlekader brings fresh legs to the third line. But what do I know really?

    Mike Babcock puts third line on notice

    Of all the wrong statements you've made as a Hudler zealot, this has to top the pile. I like Hudler. But not this much.

    McCollum Watch

    He's now 2-1 and his save % and GAA are improving.

    Andrej Nestrasil

    8G, 8A = 16 pts in 12 games, good for 2nd in team scoring. He's only 5 pts behind the team lead and he's played 5 less games (attended Wings camp.) I live in Charlottetown, PEI, and am excited to go see the kid play. http://lhjmq.leaguestat.com/en/stats/statdisplay.php?type=skaters&subType=10&season_id=82&leagueId=1&lastActive=&singleSeason=&confId=0

    The Todd Appreciation Station

    A little bit of man-love here too. The two things I've been impressed with are his ability to hang on to the puck, and his willingness to shoot more. What a 2nd line!!!

    The Third Line

    All stupid fantasy league stuff aside, I actually think Cleary is the worst part about that line right now. Hudler and Modano may be a bit slow to adjust or whatever, but Selanne's goal was Cleary's fault. I think he still has injury issues.

    Youngsters ditching the visors

    I haven't noticed, no. But then again I'm blind. I lost both eyes to high sticks because I wasn't wearing a visor.

    Illitch "definitely committed" to new downtown arena

    Of course he expects them to pay. That's why he bought the Pistons. He's using the threat of moving the Wings to the suburbs as leverage for city funding for a new rink. With The Wings and Pistons playing in metro Detroit you get 10,000+ people in that area 100 times a year, spending money. Like Illitch, the city needs to invest in order to stimulate the economy. The man loves Detroit. If he wants a new rink, I say help the guy out. It will be good for the city and good for long-term revitalization.

    Brendan Smith Fight

    Hey, you leave newfy alone. He has legit concerns. There's nothing wrong with wondering about Smith's toughness or, for that matter, how physical Riley Sheehan is. Also, for the record, Smith leads the Griffins with 2G 2A in 4 games. Although he's a -1. Actually, the entire team is either even or minus except Tatar who is +2

    Brendan Smith Fight

    Yeah, I'm curious too. A thread on this was started in the Grand Rapids Forum here on LGW's. No one's really chimed in with any info though. http://www.letsgowings.com/forums/index.php/topic/67048-smith-fight/

    Leafs are in 1st place overall!

    This just in: The Lions have a 1-0 record in their last one game.

    Could Eaves be put on waivers?

    Eaves scores one goal and that justifies over-zealous comments about him being a top six winger? On LGW it sure does.

    Abdelkader out, Bertuzzi questionable for tomorrow's opener

    So if both players are out, what do the lines look like. Keep in mind Draper's out too: Zetterberg - Datsyuk - Homer Franzen - Filpulla - Cleary Hudler - Modano - Eaves Miller - Helm - ? So who gets the call? Maltby Mursak Owens Emmerton

    Euro Twins versus Sedin Twins

    The Sedins excel on the boards and the cycle. With all that open room they lose what makes them special. It would still be close.
