once Bertuzzi finds the back of the net, he will be unstopable! He is playing very well, he just can't get the finishing touch going....

Osgood, stinky.... Zetterberg, hey I got my guaranteed money, now I will suck up the ice.... this is Howards chance to steal the #1 job, if he can somehow keep the nucks off the scoreboard, he will start in Edmonton, hell he may off already won that start with Osgood's s***ty play...

as much as I have been a fan and supporter of Osgood, God Damn Chris, you gotta stop that easy s***!

I know, I know, but he was rumored to be coming here, and the other rumor was somebody within the organization didn't want him here. (Babcock) In hindsight, the fact that Columbus wanted Filppula in return was enough to say no thanks...

well, since we're mentioning other sports: Baseball: 80's - Tom Brookens; 90's - Cecil Fielder; 00's - Magglio Football: 80's - Drew Pearson; 90's - Barry 00's - Nobody Basketball: 80's - Dennis Rodman (Pistons version;) Basketball has sucked since 1992 so no others... Golf - Is that a sport? Favorite NON-Red Wing - Joe Sakic

There is only one reason why Prospal didn't come here (and Fedorov for that matter at the 2008 trade deadline) and its the same reason Shanahan left and Yzerman retired a year earlier than he wanted to..... Mike Babcock....

Yep, there were plenty of "they should've stayed for less money" or "he sucks now anyway" or "I never liked him to begin with" or "He is lazy and fat" or "He was past his prime when he came here, who needs him anyway." Of course noe more than Fedorov, followed by Hossa then Hudler, but ya, to some extent, folks were jumping on Schneider, Bertuzzi AND Lapointe for going somewhere for more money... Basically, a lot of fans think that if you DON'T re-sign with Detroit, or accept half of what you're worth in the league, then you always sucked or you choked in the playoffs and we don't need you anyhow. Or Heaven forbid accept the same exact contract with another team! (Fedorov)

More good than bad, but folks just dont seem to agree with players who leave Detroit for ANY reason, they think that EVERYONE should want to be a Red Wing and Heaen forbid you leave for personal or business reasons, then you are a backstabbing turncoat... (Fedorov, Hudler, Hossa, Bertuzzi (the frst time,) Schneider, LaPointe, Shanahan, Hull, Robitaille just to name a few who fell out of favor with the LGW'ers.)

70's - Reed Larson 80's - Bob Probert 90's - Sergei Fedorov 00's - No favs... (so far)

Wow.... no need for me to add to this, I think this thread has enough Hudler Hate... Fire McCrimmon, aquire some offense...

...and who leads the team in goals? Exactly, Holmstrom.... No doubt, the WIngs need a shake up, but everyone else is playing too good throughout the league to wan to give up any bodies. Fire McCrimmon, Give Howard his shot, a REAL shot, give him about 10 starts in a row and if screws up, make a deal for a goaler... The good news is, well, none, but hey, if the Wings couyld hold a third period lead the'd be 7-1! They had leads is every game except Buffalo..... Falls directly on the defensive side of the puck. Fire McCrimmon.

well, there goes out replacement for McCrimmon, do you think we could coax Larionov to be an assistant? Good Luck Chris!

Well, if he's playing crappy in LA and Murray seems to want to play without him, make the deal! Hell if Murray is willing to wait for someone, trade them Hudler's rights for Frolov!

The one change O am hoping for soon is the release of Brad McCrimmon.... I still think Mike Peca can help shore up the defensive side of the puck. He is without a job and would surely sign for $500,000....

Yep, Luongo starts off slow, tears up the league in Nov, Dec, Jan, Feb, Mar then gets shelled in the playoffs...

I'll take a .500ish record now for a 16-12 record come springtime!

There's always the WPT on ESPN...

they should also create a schedule where I don't have to wait 5 days for my home teams next game!!! Coming home from Sweden I can understand, but flying from Detroit to Phoenix? Give me a break! They should be playing at least every two days, then we wouldn't have to wait until June for a Stanley Cup Winner!

Ya, 1995-96 they were 5-5-1 in the first 11 games and finish 62-13-7. Which means they only lost 8 games in the net 71! Highly doubt it happens again, but, ya....

...and given to Cindy Lee (hell he already gets them from sitting on the bench)

:puke: Dude, stop...

Paul MacLean is stil an asst. here, Todd McLellan is coaching the Sharks....

They wanted to show one more replay of the same goal, but according to Cindy Lee Crosby's contract only he can be shown scoring the same goal 100 times in one report.

Yes, it has been FAR more than 5 games! They woud be back to back champs if they woldn't have had the defesive problems ast season. A lot of folks like to blame Hossa, sure he should have scored in the finals, but we lost it by one goal and one game, if maybe the penalty kill was better in game's 3 or 6, we would be talking a Triple Crown run this year... McCrimmon should be man enough to quit, he knows he system is he problem, he handles the D and the penalty kill... Fire McCrimmon NOW!

Fire McCrimmon...
