Son of a Wing

I think he got "in trouble" from one of the many egos at MLSE.

Congrats Nyquist on NHL First Star of the Week! Well deserved.

You have to give value to get value. You're underrating Legwand and overrating Jarnkrok. You're not getting a star player in return for him.

I must have missed how being an addict and an overrated cheap-shot douchebag were in any way related....

It's lunch money to them, but not to the people who use the players emergency fund. Frankly, I wouldn't mind seeing fines more often for stuff like this.

He played 17min in a game two nights ago.

Good for him. Hope he gets a decent shot with them this year.

A lot of Debbie Downers in here. What's that thing Babcock always says? Choose your attitude. (yeah i went there) Let's keep this ship turned around and have some more guys continue to step up. I can't remember the last season I was this emotionally invested in so many regular season games. Loving it. (whether I have any hair/nails left or not)

Nevermind he's a KHL RFA at the end of the year. No additional year...

Yup till 2015. I don't think he's in any rush to come over regardless. He'll make it over in a year or two.

f*** no. Kassian is brutal and a meathead. Richdg, your obsession with size is blinding you...

Red Wings sign college FA Colin Campbell

Gary Roberts runs an elite program but would never sign on with any one team nowadays. He's stated publicly he loves the freedom of running his own program and training whom ever he wants.

Some videos of Smith talking about the move to forward and Ferraro.

Oh I'm with ya. I was just showing where those comparisons were from. I could see Jarnkrok develop into a lesser version of Ryan O'Reilly.

“I like to think of him like a Zetterberg. He wants to have the puck, he wants to hold onto the puck all the time, he makes plays (for his linemates) and he knows how to score himself.” — Red Wings scout Ari Vuori (June 2010) “He has great hockey sense, very tenacious, a lot of (Henrik) Zetterberg-type qualities. He’s strong on the puck, never gives up on the puck.” — Red Wings assistant GM Jim Nill (May 2012, MLive.com) The Red Wings have likened Jarnkrok to Henrik Zetterberg and the potential is there for the hard-working, highly-skilled center to emerge as a front-line NHL talent over the next five years. -- RWC RWC

New estimates put the cap at 68 than the original 71 projection. So that's 16m in space before signing RFAs Tatar, Sheahan, Dekeyser, Glendening, Almquist, Ferraro, Callahan (5-8m) and UFAs Legwand and Alfie(8-10m).

Danny Dekeyser? I haven't heard/read anything regarding us linked to a defenceman. Where did you read that regarding this years crop?

That might be changing.

If you mean this list then unfortunately it's just alphabetically. Unless you're referencing another one?

I've been obsessed with the Civilization series since the beginning. Love Civ 5 since BNW expansion. If anyone would be interested in some online play shoot me a PM. ESO beta was on this past weekend. I've been involved since the beginning. Have had some ups and downs but I'm pre-ordering and will give it a chance. Probably wouldn't if I didn't have friends doing the same. I've never been an MMO guy.

Well technically we would need 3 points to put us in 8th because of the tie-breaker for wins.
