    Congratulations Chris Osgood!

    for as much as I enjoy bashing Ozzie, he earned this one. lets hope the defense plays better in front of him, now that this albatross gorilla is off his back.

    12/27 GDT: Red Wings 4 at Avalanche 3 (OT)

    Ozzie royally sucks. what use is a backup goalie that you need to coddle??
  3. so Hagelin is in the CCHA, whoop-dee-doo. Anyone forget Mattias Ritola who was in the system for an eternity (he was a fourth round pick 2005)?? Swedish centerman prospect to boot, and he's still only 23... dumped for nothing.
  4. no way this guy signs here and accepts assignment to AHL. i can't see Babcock accepting another one-way project like Leino. I'd rather see the Wings give our drafted youngsters a shot at a roster spot.

    Osgood to start Sunday

    There goes Ozzie's chance to get #400 at home... unless Ozzie gets the next start on Wed at home against the Canucks... which i severely doubt.

    Osgood to start Sunday

    everyone is coddling Ozzie to get his 400th... I say, what use is a backup if he can't push the starter? Get Ozzie his W, then use him regularly.. otherwise ditch him

    i just dont see the point of running J-Ho into the ground, especially when the team hangs the goalies out to dry.

    Might as well alternate goalies, unless one gets hot.

    NJD put Brian Rolston on waivers

    Well then, I dont think we entirely differ. its the team/franchise that signs these players to ridiculous deals, it should be *solely* them who should be punished. Rolston probably will retire because no team at this point can shoulder the cap hit, even at the reduced re-entry weight. Go ahead, punish the team... individuals should be released and scott free if you asked me.

    NJD put Brian Rolston on waivers

    The next CBA definitely needs to address this issue... its horrendous to see good players potentially end their careers outside the NHL because of this cap loophole. I bet the devils could very well waive Kovalchuk tomorrow and he might just clear too. I say if a player clears waivers he immediately becomes a free agent, no strings attached, ineligible to play for the waiving team.
  11. Love him or not, I hope Ozzie gets his 400th W soon... he needs to get this gorilla off his back
  12. curious... what is Fedorov's status in the KHL?
  13. Phoenix is a playoff-bound team... they won't be sellers.

    Free 15-day Trial of NHL GameCenter LIVE

    hey mcawesome (and others).... any scuttlebutt that GCL will offer a discounted half-season package?? i used to get all sorts of mlb.tv midseason offers. i certainly would bite if NHL.com offered the same...

    If Modano's career is over...

    wasn't this a contract for a 35+ year old? so... won't the Wings be on the hook capwise if Modano retires? I think Ken is going to keep his spot regardless.

    Free 15-day Trial of NHL GameCenter LIVE

    this is perfectly watchable! but since just about all redwing games are on FSD locally, does this mean it will always be blacked out?? how about when I am over in Windsor? any Windsor-forumites out there with GameCenter??

    11/19 GDT: Wild 4 at Red Wings 3 (OT)

    I think Babs might have tinkered a lil too much with the lines tonight. it took some time for the Wings to get going.

    All-Star Game format change being considered

    ditch the allstar game altogether. make the Winter Classic double-header the featured games. let the fans pick the representing teams.

    Leafs are in 1st place overall!

    I catch the odd Leafs game now and then... aside from the Phaneuf injury, I can't fathom why this team is doing so bad. Is it time to ditch Ron Wilson?
  22. Grim

    Should we risk our future for an elite defenseman?

    Nik practically has a blank check for him to write in how many years and at what payrate. heaven forbid he hangs them up... but if he does, I hope Ken takes a good long look at Eddie Jovanovski who likely will be UFA at this year's end.

    Bettman Moving on?

    I would love to see Bettman try to tinker with Baseball's tradition.... maybe substitute a HR derby instead of extra innings
