I'd hardly call Brendan Shanahan a loser...but he is NEW there, so hopefully he doesn't catch the bug.

I was totally thinking Silver Bullet Band, but I thought it may be wrong because I only knew it as Bob Seger and His Silver Bullet Band. Plus, I was pretty sure The Lone Ranger didn't shoot Silver Bullet's. But the Hi-Yo Silver almost had me put it! Then I remember the band Kemo Sabe... Zombies Able To Waltz is - Dead Can Dance try this one, a little easier: fornication arms

Holy crap! Centcougar! I could not remember that guys name! I remember when he was here pretending to be a Wings fan talking about how we may or may not land the Olsen Twins that year! I also remember outing him when I stumbled across him on a Wild Forum using the same name! That was great times! Even though he was right about the Wild getting them, but it was awesome to out him on our forum! Dude, just be a Wild fan, we don't care!

I haven't see CPRICE12 around these parts for a LONG time! He was our resident Blues fan...maybe he got tired of getting beat all the time?

Nice! Boy, Danny D is really coming up! He made some great plays all game long! He should get one of the stars!

LGW! I sure hate (but love) Backes!

yeah! Poor Dion just can't get a break in TO. Reminds me of Murphy when he was there. Then he came to us and was great. Not saying we need Dion, but he needs out of TO!

Kip, that is a good point, and I do understand it. My point was just that I hated losing Hossa, and since Franzen was the main guy kept to be "The Sniper" on this team, I turned on Franzen when he NEVER even came close to being the right guy. I understand the business aspect of it, but even back then I was in favor of dumping Hudler, Filppula and Franzen instead of losing Hossa. I always was pro-Hossa and always will be. My whole point that started this was, I didn't think losing Hossa in favor of Franzen was the right thing to do, and I was right. Hossa has 2 Cups to our none since he left. So even though Holland chose to keep three players instead of one, it didn't help us what so ever. Hudler and Filppula left anyhow and Franzen is nitrous garbage. So, losing all three of them and keeping Hossa would not have hurt the team, and it may have even bettered the team because Hossa would've been on Dats' wing this whole time (more than likely) and probably would have scored more shootout goals... I get it, hindsight is 20/20, but I was never in favor of losing Hossa. And no,I do not blame Franzen for taking the money, hell, he got a free ride into the millionaire's club. He has nowhere near earned his money while here. I was ONLY in support of him signing and his contract if we could've kept Hossa. I wasn't after we lost Hossa mainly because Franzen took the money and ran, or should I say floated. I said it in the original extension thread, the cap hit was too much, most other hated something about the term or the cap hit, so, krsmith, a lot of us were throwing s*** at the wall back then as well, and a lot of us were right. I just happen to be the biggest Franzen hater in this place, so I feel like celebrating that almost all the rest of the world has joined me on a boat I have been sailing for a long time!

Ok, no one can guess this one either, I must be making it too hard for you. Faith No More ok, a little easier one non-mono master of ceremony's (the 's is there purposely.)

go back to the franzen signs extension thread...not EVERYBODY was happy. Most, as a matter of fact, hated the term and a lot of us, me included, thought it was too high cap hit in order to make the team better. most of that thread had a lot of people NOT liking something about it. Again, if you read entire posts instead of just looking for things that may support your opinion, you'd be a bit wiser.
-
BTW, I cannot cut and paste, but I did just see in the original Frazen signs extension thread, a post where I thought I was in a GDT, where I said I like Franzen, but he should have signed for around $2.9M in order to secure more talent for more Cups. So yes, even back then I was weary of the cap hit, hoped at least we could still sign Hossa, got mad at Hossa for leaving (but Holland low-balled him) and turned on Franzen almost immediately, so read it however you may. Outside of the chance I thought we had to have both players, I NEVER was on the side of keeping Fraznen and not Hossa. NEVER.
-
Kip, I did say I was ok with the signing when it happened. I said, now lets get Hossa signed as well. But when it came down to choosing Fraznen OVER Hossa, I was never on board with that. You may or may not remember, I did talk crap about Hudler every chance I got when he was here, and I partied like 1999 when he left. The ONLY reason I "liked" the Franzen signing is if we could have also gotten Hossa on board. I NEVER advocated Franzen over Hossa.... I don't need any ass kissing, just read posts instead of picking out things that give false support to your argument. Back to topic..... Get well soon Johan! But I honestly hope you never play for the Wings again!

Yep, this team was MUCH better the years we had Francine and Hudler rather than having Hossa. Again after Francine was signed I said, YES! Now get Hossa signed and dump Hudler and Filppula. But we see that Holland chose to keep Hudler and Filppula and in turn forced Hossa to leave with an stupidly low ball contract offer. No doubt in my mind that this team would have challenged more for a Cup with Hossa and Franzen over Franzen, Hudler and Filppula. Hudler and Filppula are gone, I cannot wait for Franzen to leave, by whatever means. Sure, it doesn't change the fact that Hossa went to Chicago, but at least the reason(s) he did leave will all be gone! Again Kip, so you can understand it. I wasn't in favor of choosing Franzen over Hossa, but when Franzen signed, I was ok with it as long as the priority switched to Hossa and dumping Hudler and Filppula to make it happen. When Hossa left, I was angry at him for leaving, but then almost immediately turned my anger towards keeping Franzen, Hudler and Filppula. Thank you. Re-read all that stuff you pulled up from me instead of just cherry picking things here and there.

I wonder how long it will take krsmith to "get over it" when/if Smith is traded? Ever since the "Choice" Hossa has shined and Francine has been a pile of dog poop, fermenting and getting stinkier every year. He was "ok" the first year of his contract, then turn into a festering goop pile that gets slimier and slimier... Franzen is hot garbage, doesn't deserve to be on this team and should have been dealt with A LONG TIME AGO! At this point I would take Cleary on that "serious contract" than Francine for one more shift. I was over Francine a long time ago and cannot even stomach him wearing that sweater anymore. He had a stretch of what, 7 games this season where he fooled all of us into thinking he may have a decent season and be someone that he other teams need to keep an eye on? But since then, he is back, even worse than last season. This clown should've been the last buyout, I cannot believe Holland and a lot of people still think the 2008 Franzen is going to come back...how about getting over that?!?
