Just don't draft European!!!! ESPECIALLY FINNISH! Ya, he actually mocked McIlrath going 10th? Right, sure...

Ok, on the Watson bandwagon now, then Tinordi second round... ARGH! What to do!!! ...and f*** the Predators! f*** me running!!!!!!

We have a trade to annouce, The Detroit Red Wings trade the #21st pick to the Los Angeles Kings for Jack Johnson. Make IT Happen!

St. Louis again.....

Ya, and what did Nill say if there were a handful of players they like available at 21? They might trade down, ******* great! I will be up until 10 only to not see a pick!

Use the Schwartz!

Hmmmm, now who do I wish for? Maybe one of the top defenders fall to us? Maybe the kid from Detroit with the 9 siblings? Who was that, I was half asleep when they were talking about him...

f*** Me Running! Well at least I can't be mad at Holland if he didn't draft him! Strange he went so high, eh?

This is taking forever! I have to get up at 4:00am if I wait for Holland and he trades DOWN?!?!?

Stevie did Detroit a favor by not going D. Now that leaves another defenseman available for someone to pick instead of McIlrath, so he will fall to us!!!!

I cannot find a pic to put up, but compare the hats on the NHL players drafted and the ones the NBA players wore, WTF? Who says that the media doesn't try to stereotype... Sorry, wish I had pics, but just google them, its pathetic looking those NBA hats, the frickin brim in bigger than the hat itself! Stevie up next? Whoops! I thought they said Yzerman had the 5th pick.... I guess not!

Well it certainly wasn't gonna be Haken Pupen....

no questions who's next. Tyler on his way to Boston...

After watching the NBA draft last night and this so far tonight,I am convinced that *** Bettman and David Stern were twins separated at birth....

at this point, I prefer McIlrath still, but please Kenny just someone with some size and weight behind them, I am tired of getting bounced around. If we get a big defensman ala Pronger or a big forward ala Getzlaf, I will be happy. Not that making me Happy is on Holland list of priorities, but it would be nice!

Lets Do It!

Please excuse me if I don't jump out of my skin because of this signing. Now when Holland drafts Hok Ptew tonight he'll say he didn't see the need for McIlrath on this team becuase of the recent defensive signings. I am so sick of all these stupid ass signings....

I hear ya man! I hear ya! But my hatred for Hudler runs too deep, I'd trade him for Ernie Harwell just to get him off my team...

Yes, but, we've got Hudler! Plus, Savard has had a concussion, he is mashed potatoes inside, don't worry though, Zetterberg and Franzen will NEVER re-injure their back and shoulder again, ever! They are Red Wings! They are worth $6M and $4M, but Savard is not, because it may cost us, GOD FORBID, HUDLER! Oh God, what a world, what a world! If Hudler is traded the Earth will surely open up and swallow Hockeytown!

Nah, we've got Hudler, who needs someone who is better than Hudler? Hudler is the way to the light! Stanley Cup baby!

Euro-Hater Holland will draft a Russian who isnt even sure he'll leave Russia...

Nah, we'll just bring back Jiri clucking Hudler, he'll bring us back to Stanley! How many back injuries has Zetterberg had? How many injuries has Franzen and Kronwall had? It's ok to throw all of our cash at them, but its not cool to trade for 80-100 point producer with LESS injured seasons than Hank and Mule, becuase Hudler can get 50 points? I may have very limited medical knowledge, but lets give $6M to a man with a bad back, yes Zetterberg, that makes lots of sense. Holland rolled the dice on Zetterberg staying healthy (which failed last season) so why not roll the dice on a 100 point player? Here's the Slappies Lines Hudler - Hudler - Hudler Hudler - Hudler - Hudler Hudler - Hudler - Hudler Hudler - Hudler - Hudler Hudler

Funny,you laugh at a 32 year old who had a concussion for $4M, yet $3.9M for a 30 year old with a HISTORY of injuries is fine. Johan Franzen's cap hit is almost the same, he is only 2 years younger, but has had a plethora of injuries, yet its ok for him to be here? He;s never even come close to 100 points, he has never been healthy enough to! Everyone here holds the Mule on a high horse, yet bring Savard in here would be dumb? Too, Too Funny!

EDIT: Oh Boo Hoo, negged because Hudler sucks, cry me a river!

Hudler will never get 88 points... Savard WILL playing for the Wings, I don't get all the love for a guy who told you fans to bark off and ran to the KHL. Hudler is NOT a top 6 forward in the NHL, Savard is. There is no comparison. Hudler is afraid of contact, corners and the front of the net, he avoids any kind of physical aspect of the game. He will not help us into the finals, Savard can. But NOOOOOO! Lets just keep the same team and add a clucking loser who cannot even make his own national team and who turned his back on ALL the Wings fans that supported him. Stanley Cup Finals, not with this roster.... Yo slappies just keep thinking Hudler is the answer. You guys are TOO funny!

I did say Hudler/Emmerton and 2nd rounder. according to most user on this site, Hudler hasnt even tapped his potential, so since Hudler obvouisly is the second coming, him plus Emmerton plus a 2nd round pick should be MORE than enough....
