    Wings W-L Record In Final 22?

    These "fans" are idiots...I said the same thing on deadline day, that they would lose the #1 seed and possible drop to 6th in the playoffs, hell they are already in 4th. They laughed at me. They call you an idiot. Seems nobody wants to admit that the Wings are not omnipotent. Dudes, not saying the Wings suck, but Holland should have made a blockbuster. Now with injuries, they are going to lose their position even more. They played like crap against Columbus except for the last 10-12 minutes. That comeback doesn't happen against anyone but Columbus. They needed a shakeup. Now they know they can float around and not show up 100% and be confident there will be no repercussions.

    NHL and steroids according to Laraque

    Oh, for sure, as did many of the NHL's enforcers back in his day did. Drugs, Alcohol as well as steroids...

    NHL and steroids according to Laraque

    It is well known that former Leafs/Canadiens enforcer John Kordic died of heart failure caused by a drug (some say steroid) overdose...I have no doubt in my mind that there is performance enhancing drugs in the NHL.

    Legacy of Ken Holland

    Exactly! Hatcher was a beast before his injury, then he got bought out the next year...these same people ***** about Mike Modano signing as well! anyhow, to the OP, great list but you left out one thing he does EVERY year at the deadline and July 1st. "Kicked the tires and had some interests."

    Lidstrom to win Norris trophy?

    This to a "T" They will never vote Lidstrom an 8th trophy just because that would mean that people would have to admit that Lidstrom is just as good as or even better than Orr ever was. So by that fact alone, Lids will retire with 7 Norris Trophies. On that note, if I am making a team and picking players from their prime, Lidstrom gets picked before Orr...

    Post-TDT: Red Wings stand pat, no additions

    Here is my roster and salaries for next year if Staurt and Lids leave... Now the contracts here are typical of Holland. A bit lower salary for long term contract. (at least 5 years) FORWARDS Zach Parise ($6.700m) / Pavel Datsyuk ($6.700m) / Johan Franzen ($3.954m) Valtteri Filppula ($3.000m) / Henrik Zetterberg ($6.083m) / Todd Bertuzzi ($2.075m) Jiri Hudler ($3.000m) / Darren Helm ($1.000m) / Daniel Cleary ($2.800m) Drew Miller ($0.837m) / Justin Abdelkader ($0.900m) / Patrick Eaves ($1.200m) Cory Emmerton ($0.533m) DEFENSEMEN Niklas Kronwall ($4.750m) / Ryan Suter ($6.200m) Ian White ($2.875m) / Kyle Quincey ($3.000m) Jonathan Ericsson ($3.250m) / Brendan Smith ($0.875m) Jakub Kindl ($0.883m) GOALTENDERS Jimmy Howard ($2.250m) / Joey MacDonald ($0.550m) CAPGEEK.COM TOTALS (follow @capgeek on Twitter) (these totals are compiled without the bonus cushion) SALARY CAP: $64,300,000; CAP PAYROLL: $63,417,044; BONUSES: $0 CAP SPACE (22-man roster): $882,956 ...yes, I know damn well that other teams will offer Suter and Parise the world, but this is just what I would love to see and with long term guaranteed contracts, the salary difference is not to off. Of course if Lidstrom comes back, this throws either Suter or Parise out of the mix. In that case I would choose to sign Suter over Parise because you will need to replace Lidstrom sooner than later...not unless Nashville only re-ups Weber for one more season and Holland would rather get Parise now and roll the dice on Weber in 2013... Yes, I have re-signed Hudler (hard to believe, eh?) and at a modest raise. He gets Filppula's salary for a long term contract. Helm and Abby both get modest raises for a few years each and Quincey takes a small cut, but gets a long term contract...

    Better them than the Rangers, if New York won it, we'd never hear the end of "America's Team!" "Won it for the 9/11 victims!" "Best team to ever play in the United States!" etc.....

    Post-TDT: Red Wings stand pat, no additions

    Nothing, but they are coming fast as is Nashville...Detroit slumping at home, Datsyuk out, defensemen hurt, horrible road team, unmotivated forwards in the top 6. There is no doubt, St. Louis will pass us up.

    Post-TDT: Red Wings stand pat, no additions

    Worst part of this whole thing is, not Holland tucking his penis between his legs and pretending to be a girl, but the fact that when St. Louis overtakes Detroit in the central, we all have to put up cprice12 for the rest of the season!
