    Who Do You Think Will Lead the Wings In Scoring

    I think it'll be Nyquist in overall points, and Tatar will lead the team in goals.
  2. I would agree. I keep hearing about how great Crosby is and I see the stats, but I only watch the Red Wings, and Crosby doesn't do much against the Wings. I assumed it's because Zetterberg is always shutting him down.

    Cleary re-signs... 1 year deal

    With Helm and Datsyuk out to start the season, the Cleary signing looks ok now. Cleary is probably the best guy to be a fill in and play 12 minutes. Edit: Just went over to the Helm collision discussion, I guess Cleary isn't skating, oh well.

    Leafs acquire Grabner

    And the Toronto media will analyze this move for 5 days
  5. I'm no way a Toronto supporter, but I live in the area, the Raptors do very well in Toronto, they're top 1/3 in the league in attendance.
  6. As Rick from Pawn Stars would say, the asking price is different then what it's actually worth. $750 Million is an insane amount for an NHL team, especially in a small market like Pittsburgh and a team that's almost gone bankrupt twice.

    Cleary re-signs... 1 year deal

    Based on the money he's paying Cabrera and Verlander, Mr. I won't even notice.

    Las Vegas rumored to get an expansion team

    I'll add to that, 60 miles north of the city is legal prostitution. You can bet, their #1 customers will be NHL players. I know players can get in trouble anywhere, but putting young rich professional athletes in Sin City is an insane idea!

    Which prospect will have the best nhl career

    Larkin with an early 1-0-0-0 lead. I was the first one who voted

    Who is better Nyquist or Tatar?

    I voted Nyquist, because he's the better overall player. But that's nothing against Tatar, Tatar bring his own skill and energy.

    Line combos for 97, 98 Cups?

    Not to argue your point, but most guys have to score 50 goals in Juniors to make the NHL. Lapointe did the same in the QMJ.

    My grandfather's hockey collection!

    I didn't watch the entire video, but very cool moment with your Grandfather to put his collection and stories on film. Both my Grandfathers aren't with us anymore, but when they were here, I always enjoyed hearing them talk about their experiences in life.

    Line combos for 97, 98 Cups?

    I think you're correct on both. I remember Sandstrom-Yzerman-McCarty line in 1997, and Holmstrom-Yzerman-McCarty in 1998. I remember too in the 1998 Final, Scotty would load up the top line with Shanahan-Yzerman-Fedorov sometimes. But as already mentioned, Scotty would change the line combos every shift.

    Lou Lamoriello new GM of the Leafs

    What is your favorite color? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uR36lzNfr7k
  15. A $4.25 cap hit for a guy who plays 20 minutes a night is a good contract. Teams would be interested.
  16. As already mentioned, good deal for both sides.

    Nyquist Files For Arbitration

    Realistically he should only make a few hundred grand more then Tatar, just for inflation purposes, despite Tatar being the better player last year.

    Pittsburgh: America's hockey capital? Lol

    How many times has the Penguins almost gone bankrupt?

    Lidstrom Family at the Tiger game

    Frustrating season, no way the Tigers should be only 1 game over .500 in early July. Maybe Nick can play?

    Free agents this off season

    I would think Nyquist gets $2.95, he should get a little more then Tatar.

    Wings sign Brad Richards 1 yr, $3 million

    Another good move. A good day for Holland.
