    Blockbuster deal?

    I agree with you pumpkin, but I was just responding to you saying Howard CAN'T be traded, when in fact, he can. But ya, Wings won't trade him because they stick with the guys they draft no matter how bad they become (Franzen) and continue to hope they return to the form they had a few years ago...so ya, you are right no matter how crappy Howard becomes and how many game he costs them, he won't be asked to waive his NTC. Gotta love that Ken Holland and some of the things he does!

    Blockbuster deal?

    I would for sure swap Howard for Miller. I don't think they would take Tootoo, but heck, throw Quincey and Kindl in along with a pick/prospect for Ott and Erhoff. to BUF: Jimmy Howard, Kyle Quincey, Jakub Kindl, Prospect (Ferraro maybe) to DET: Ryan Miller, Steve Ott, Christain Erhoff Blockbuster! pumpkin...many players with NMC/NTC have been traded and moved. They simply yea or nay a trade and agree to waive their clause. It happens a lot. NMC or not ANYONE is tradeable, it just takes a little more cooperation.

    concerning Helm...flame me all you want, but according to a source on the training staff (yes one of those friend of a friend, oh well) Helm would sit out with a hangnail. Says when it comes to injuries, he is a *****...i don't doubt he hurt himself again. Porcelain Doll....

    Blockbuster deal?

    trade Howard, Mule, Quincey, Kindl and a prospect in a blockbuster...what in return? Dunno...but if I am trading, those are the guys on my short list.

    12/28 GDT : Red Wings 4 at Panthers 3

    Ya well, before the game Quincey was a -13 (team worst) and Danny D was a +5. I bring it up becasue Quincey is a blow hole. He is by far our WORST defenseman.

    it's encouraging to see that Cleary has the least amount of icetime (less than 5:00 ttl) and tht Danny Diesel has the most!

  22. ...neither can Cleary or Sammy.
  23. I think at best, IF Feds was looking for a return to the NHL to see what he can do, he would sign for a year to see how it goes, then go from there a year at a time. I know he is 44, but remember Fedorov is/was a work of art when it comes to being in shape. His workout rivaled Chris Chelios at the time. When Cheli was 44 and 45, he was still pretty effective for us. Sure it is a long shot that Feds returns here, and I am mostly just talking about it because I SO want him to retire a Red Wing. But honestly, if Selanne can do it, so could Feds. He may not be on the top line, but heck, could he really be as bad as Weiss has been this year? Albeit Weiss had a groin issue that was supposedly hindering him. If Holland isn't going to make splash in the market until the 2015 off season, then heck, give it a go. He gave Modo a closing ceremony to play for his hometown, he kept Cheli around until he was 48ish and even Alfie at 41 is only 2 points out of having the team lead in points. Long shot, yes...pipe dream, yes...but damn I hope it happens...it needs to happen.

    Your favourite Red Wings misfit of all time

    all time misfit....Ken Holland! With all those lovely quotes he uses every draft, July 1st, throughout the season and trade deadline! He builds you up just to knock you down, you play the fool while he plays the clown! In the end, he kicked the tires and made some offers, but he likes our team!

    Ericsson out 3-5 weeks with Fractured Ribs

    ...no, the wrong guys are getting hurt...if he were an actual genius, Cleary, Bertuzzi, Samuelsson, Quincey & Kindl would be the LTIR cap relief and we'd have a great team then to go along with the cap relief...
