    do players actually think it looks like they really fell into the net on accident? It is so pathetic looking.

    3/7 GDT: Devils 4 at Red Wings 7

    we can agree to disagree on that one. Jimmy isn't good. He is slightly above average at best. He has poor rebound control and rarely makes the big save when they need it yet gives up a bad when they need it least. He doesn't suck, but he is Osgood 2.0.

    Detroit needs to sign Tim Thomas this summer to bump Average Jimmy out of his job.

    UFA/RFA Re-Signing, What Does Everyone Get?

    Jurco and Glenny can start the season in Rapids. Dickie, no way Sheahan gets moved, especially not for Kesler. It is ridiculous to even suggest it. As well as suggest Tatar. Holland wasn't selling them last week, he won't sell them in June. We don't need Kesler. We need a solid #3 defenseman.

    UFA/RFA Re-Signing, What Does Everyone Get?

    say what you want, but Legwand will more than likely re-sign and unless Holland doesn't want to give Weiss a shot, and buys him out or convinces him to waive his NTC, the two guys on the bubble are Andersson and Helm. Sheahan and Glendening have made both tradable assets. Only thing saving one of them is Glendening has waiver exemptions left.

    so again, who is this Franzen and where is Franzine? Legwand was a great pickup. Expensive but we needed this. If we can string 6 to 8 of these games together with this much intensity, we'll be sitting pretty.

    must need 2 points. We need around 94 points to guarantee a playoff spot. Start now!

    Legwand to Detroit for Eaves, Jarnkrok + cond 3rd/2nd

    Never have I said Legwand wasn't a good pickup, it just cost a lot. If Legwand can remain consistent he will be a nice solid acquisition and help us make the playoffs. concerning the 3rd becoming a 2nd, who cares, we all know Holland is going to trade our 1st for two 2nds anyhow. So they will have two 2nds and get their 3rd back when we make the playoffs. Eaves just wasn't going to be part of this team going forward and probably wasn't going to be re-signed. This trade allows him to go somewhere and play every night. Jarnkrok will be missed, I think. We have so much young talent ready to make the jump in the next couple if years, are we really going to miss him? All that being said, considering what the top few guys actually got traded for, it was still overpayment, but its a position we needed to take care of. Today, with all our injuries, we are a better team. I still think Holland is overrated and we will see how he addresses our defense come July.

    Legwand to Detroit for Eaves, Jarnkrok + cond 3rd/2nd

    not downplaying Jarnkrok or Legwand, but it was way overpayment. Holland is not a good GM, in any sense if the word...

    Legwand to Detroit for Eaves, Jarnkrok + cond 3rd/2nd

    Holland gets fleeced again if its Jarnkrok. Vanek, Moulson, Hemsky, Gaborik all went for less. Fire Holland today!

    after all is done, both Vanek and Moulson went for pennies. Holland could've bettered Montreal on that one...

    Official 2014 NHL Trade Deadline Thread

    after listening to Holland on that interview, it sounds like he has something lined up if the news on Pav and Helm is not good. The guys on TSN seem to think Legwand would fit the bill here and I tend to agree. Even with all the big names out there, I think Legwand and Visnovsky would greatly improve this team and it wouldn't cost much in return. Legwand could also be re-signed and help beyond this season. Maybe trading Tootoo back to Nashville with a pick would get Legwand here.

    The Mike Weaver for a 5th and the Hemsky for a 3rd and 5th could have made this team MUCH better than we are now... Holland is smooching the pooch today.

    Hemsky to Ottawa for 2 picks....nah Holland doesn't want to move ANY picks. Fire Holland is heating up! Could use a solid vet like Visnovsky. But only if they want a bag of pucks in return, then again I don't even think Holland wants to give up pucks. Kenny's hands should be nice and warm all the time he has spent sitting on them.

    Trade deadline fast approaching - who should we target?

    I can see it now...may as well warm up. FIRE HOLLAND! FIRE HOLLAND! FIRE HOLLAND! ok, I am all warmed up.

    would rather have Legwand.

    Emmerton recalled from GR....Emmerton is our trade deadline acquisition.

    Trade deadline fast approaching - who should we target?

    this is the year, especially right now in our current situation, that draft picks mean nothing. Trade #'s 1-7 for all I care, this team is hurt and hurt bad, we need help, we need rentals, we need forwards and D. Jagr, Hemsky, Legwand, Kesler (too expensive tho) Vanek, Stewart, Edler, Erhoff, Callahan, Visnovsky....come on Kenny © the players are out there, dump those draft picks, you have plenty, a PLETHORA of young talent in GR that you are about to lose to waivers if the don't get promoted, trade that draft pick, trade a couple of those prospects... WE NEED HELP! Keep The Streak Alive!

    Official 2014 NHL Trade Deadline Thread

    with all our injuries, its now time to make a deal or three... If Holland doesn't make a deal today to better this team, he should be fired. The Wings are currently out of the playoffs and if the longest playoff streak in pro sports means this little to him, then he doesn't deserve to be part of Hockeytown. Have some pride Ken, do not throw s*** in the faces of all the fans this team has made the last 22 years. If you allow the streak to end, shame on you and get the f*** out of my Hockeytown!

    3/4 GDT: Red Wings at Devils

    Bertuzzi didn't score in the Ottawa game. He scored the first goal at Montreal. That being said, with all the injuries, Bert has to see time out of pure need. Too bad Cleary is hurt, we could use him... We don't need any trades today...
  25. LeftWinger

    3/4 GDT: Red Wings at Devils

    We scored 3 goals tonight, plenty enough to win. Thomas would make the save when we need a big one...acquire Timmy and convince Howard to waive his NTC, that he doesn't deserve...
