    Hockeytown Red Wings got a reaction from wingnut40 in Kirk Maltby to announce he is retiring   
    My favorite Maltby memory was in 2002. It was in Game 5 against the Blues and the Wings were shorthanded. Maltby's stick breaks, but we're being held down in our own zone, so Malts goes on to throw himself all over the ice blocking at least 4 shots and I believe cleared the zone himself. The entire Joe was on their feet screaming, "MALTBY! MALTBY!" at a level that has only been heard before as "STEVIE! STEVIE!".

    Phone call, Willie Mitchell to agent:
    Mitchell: Alright, I'm ready to sort through all the offers I'm getting. Who's the first one?
    Agent: Uhhh.... Do you know where Omsk is? Very nice city in Russia. Weather very much like Tampa Bay in the summer. Dostoyevsky lived there while he was in prison. Anyway, they're offering you 4 million rubles and 16 goats. Over three years.
    Mitchell: The KHL isn't really my bag, I want to win a Stanley Cup. Anybody else?
    Agent: No that was it, and I made it up. It's fictional. This is the third time you've called today, Willie, and I have other clients. I'll contact you when I get an offer. OKTHANXBYE!

    I should have said "NO CANADIENS ALLOWED!"
    Is it Canadian or Canadien? I can never keep it straight.
    RONSOLO, last night was the only VS exclusive game, I THINK. Center Ice should have the game on at the least, even if it is the Sharks feed. It should always be the Wings feed when possible.

    Just to let you know ahead of time, Versus claims coverage of Game 3. What they are actually covering is the last 20 minutes of regulation. This is because they are also covering the Penguins game which starts at 7pm and won't be switching coverage to the Wings until the Pens game is complete (approx. 9:30). Make plans accordingly.
    For those lucky enough to have FS-Detroit or could afford Center Ice this season, move along.

    Hockeytown Red Wings reacted to Drake_Marcus in 4/28 OOT GDT: Montreal @ Washington G7   
    I know, right? He like totally set up the only Washington goal, but aside from leading his team in scoring and points what did he really do for them? Sure one could point out that Green was pathetic and Semin completely disappeared, but let's blame the guy who actually did his job.
    I can just guess who you think is better than Ovi. Captain clutch himself-- the man with a combined 6pts in 13 Finals games (AMAZING!) and who failed to register a point in any of the elimination games during the Olympics this year until Iginla set him up for a redeeming but not history-erasing gold medal winner. Sure he's been a ghost in the finals but hey-- he sure can score on Brian freaking Elliot! Woopie! He scored 14pts vs the worst defensive team in the playoffs! Let's ignore the fact that the Sens were actually a minus team entering the playoffs and played pathetic hockey. The Saviour himself stepped it up vs pathetic opposition-- sounds like his regular season. Go look how many goals/pts he scored against the Islanders. Look at his record vs the best teams. Marvel at his amazing home play vs his ghostly road play. Truly astounding! Where would he be if Malkin hadn't carried his team to a cup last year. Or do you forget who actually killed us Wings fans? It wasn't the golden child's dagger-like 3pts in 7 games and 0 points in game 7.
    Of course, if you're not actually a Cindy slappy like Carman please ignore my rant.

    At this point, I'm almost convinced that the only reason East teams can beat West teams in the finals are when the West teams are so good they just destroy each other each round until they're worn out in the finals.

    I like the Capital's players, but Bruce just doesn't know how to adjust, I've expected this to happen all along, although even I expected them to get passed the first round.

    Well, Caps fans will now know how we felt in '06. They had a killer regular season and are going to get bounced by a team that has stingy defense and a hot goalie.
    Edit: We've got a game! What in the s*** was Washington doing for this whole game? Why haven't they been crashing the net rather than going for screen shots?

    I fail to see where we were *** bashing, we are simply calling the sharks ***. They're ***, no problem with it, just a fact of life. And I am OK with that, so I am not *** bashing someone for being ***. Just like I am straight, so if I put their faces on a man and women pic, would I be straight bashing? I fail to see where you get your logic. Oh wait, it's Crymson I am talking about...

    Your manipulation is again excellent. Like I said, you're the best person on this site for completely arbitrarily manipulating the numbers to support your viewpoint all the while making it seem logical when the reality is there is no logic behind your posts. Ever.
    In the same way you remove his 2 best games, I could say that his playoff Save % is only .014 less than his 4th best regular season Sv% despite have 2 sub par games in his first ever playoffs series while the team hardly played well in front of him. Let's contrast his worst 2 games with his other 4 games, which work out to .938% and...well I don't care enough to do the calculations but you get my point. You can't just randomly take out games and base or support a conclusion off it.
