Nah, when you say something about someone's favorite player, or at least the one he is bending over backwards to defend, you can't joke about anything. You can't even have an opposite opinion about it. They get Butt hurt! Howard is Horrible. That is why Mrazek was dealt, he got us a better return and no one wanted Howard, maybe he'll be a bit more wanted come this TDL. But hey, after watching the IIHF U18, we need to get another top 5 next year anyhow!

Kid looks good! I don't speak French, so I don't know what it means, but from now on, when I hear about this kid scoring, I am going to hear "'Beueeeeeeeeeeeeeee!" or whatever it is he is saying! That's great! I love the personalities of some broadcasters!

yikes!

imagine Fedorov in Gretzky's prime (80's) with all the protection on that Oilers team.

it's funny at the time no one in Minny felt they were getting screwed, that is for sure! What is there about 7 more years of their contracts?

ugh...stuff Twitter. The discriminate WAY too much. I do miss some of my followers but I had to quit it. I l know my post in the Humboldt thread got deleted because I made it kind of political, which is fine, but when that lady said what she said about the only reason that people raised so much money, it broke the straw in my back...I was out. But I do agree, it's just that the Wings are bad, super bad right now, it'll pick up after the lottery and the draft. Look at it this way, even when the Wings are bad, the diehard(er) fans still come here!

Well, then count Holland out as a better GM, he only offered one year less, same cap hit, still Suter agreed, but his girl didn't. I would've loved to see Suter here man, even at 12 years $7.whatever million he makes against the cap.

Honestly, if we're talking "best" of the Red Wings, regular season was 1995-96, best Cup winner was 1997. I'd love to see the prime Feds, Kozi, Lidstrom, Shanny, much younger Yzerman play in the same league rules as 2008. Man they'd destroy teams being able to free wheel all over without having an extra hand on their stick or getting hooked. Hell if the 96 team had those rules they may not have lost a game, and they only lost 13! You just cannot compare different eras. It just like putting Gretzky back in the 40's and 50's, heck even the 60's when Gordie was tearing it up, he would've had a very hard time becoming The Great One in that era.

Apology....there was no reason to apologize. He's the one that told me to keep jerkin off to Tippett. I just figured one of us should put an end to it before it got too far, as he always takes it, as you see with his response...but don't confuse what I said with an apology.

and this is your response to an olive branch.

Ya, here really is no way to lose in the top 10. I haven't watch Wahlstrom too much, I seen him creeping up into the top 20, but didn't know his stats were that good. Heck there might be no way to lose for anyone in the top 15!

Ok, ok....we'll all play nice. No more saying anything that can be perceived as any of what you said I write, if I get close, remind me and I will retract.

Please do tell, because if you had paid any attention to prospects you'd know he was a better choice than Ras, ad were many others.

See: ESPN thread, but unlike you, I laugh at these things because they're not true. If someone doesn't like the player you like, then you start throwing ape s*** at them.

....and just a couple of minutes ago in the other thread you claimed I made this up, now you come here and make it worse. Or do you forget what you post from thread to thread? Personal attacks are not allowed and can result in being banned. But you've been there before so obviously you don't care about rules.

...but this is Ken Holland! Left out part of the quote! Kidding of course!

We're getting a really good player for sure, only Holland can screw this up... Nah, that was just a joke, I don't think even Holland can screw up a top 8 pick, unless he goes and drafts a 20th ranked player at that spot. Which, unlike my scenario above, is NOT beyond the realm of possibility. Here is the latest ISS Top 10...ANY of these players would be awesome! Look at Wahlstrom with 90 points in 58 games, nice! 1 Rasmus Dahlin (D) Frölunda HC SHL 41 7 13 20 20 2 Andrei Svechnikov (RW) Barrie Colts OHL 44 40 32 72 67 3 Filip Zadina (LW) Halifax Mooseheads QMJHL 57 44 38 82 36 4 Brady Tkachuk (C/LW) Boston Univ. NCAA 40 8 23 31 61 5 Oliver Wahlstrom (C/RW) U.S. National U18 Team USDP 58 45 45 90 40 6 Evan Bouchard (D) London Knights OHL 67 25 62 87 54 7 Quinn Hughes (D) Univ. of Michigan NCAA 37 5 24 29 26 8 Noah Dobson (D) Acadie-Bathurst Titan QMJHL 67 17 52 69 52 9 Adam Boqvist (D) Brynäs IF J20 SuperElit 25 14 10 24 18 10 Joseph Veleno (C) Drummondville Voltigeurs QMJHL 33 16 32 48 22

Well if we go with Jimmy and a worse back-up, we're definitely getting another lottery pick, so that is fine, but damn he should pay 3/4 of his salary back. Maybe we'll give Tom McCullum another chance. He'll sign on the cheap, we'll need a sub $1M backup with the money we are already wasting in the G position.

Oh, in that case Please, continue then....

In In-Holland like fashion, he'll wait to see if he lands JT first....nah, who am I kidding, Holland will sign Green on June 30th to a 3 year deal WITH a NTC. Its fine I guess, because we'll be able to put his cap on LTIR when the time comes. Damn, I am still SMH on that stupid Darren Helm re-sign! Ugh...oh well, water under the bridge.

I Remember when Fletcher touted as a God because he was able to sign The Olsen Twins... Where is old centcougar anyhow?

Much like what you said in the other thread? I'd say you need to look at yourself in the mirror, but with hatred like that it would shatter in to a million pieces. A while ago you had to come up with a few different usernames because you couldn't control yourself, I'd dial it back some. ho·mo·pho·bi·a ˌhōməˈfōbēə/ noun noun: homophobia dislike of or prejudice against homosexual people. Nothing I said supports this term. Unless you are saying that Jimmy IS homosexual (which there is nothing wrong with) and because I do not like him, that is why you called me this. Other than that, not sure how this name calling even supports anything we've talked about. But you are right, I do not like Jimmy, because he stinks and makes to much money, oh and he's Swedish, oh wait....anyway, but whatever his personal preference in life is, it does not have any bearing on my dislike for him.

Wow! This is inappropriate, You may want to visit the forum rules index again. Number9 showing up....plus considering I have not mentioned Tippett in about 2-3 months, its also a very useless post. I do believe your Howard affection has far surpassed my opinion of Tippett or Franzen. And now you're getting personal and off the handle. Totally inappropriate and unwarranted. But what is it you say? And now, here we are...

Go back to defending Howard...

Any G we sign as backup, with #1 potential is a good thing.
