    3/22 GDT: Penguins 1 at Red Wings 3

    I just watched the game on tape (DVR)... Fleury certainly did not look all that great. Hank and Filppula looked strong on the puck all night. Perhaps even more remarkable was how crisp the Wings' passing was overall as a team. Lets hope they can keep this kind of pace from here on out!
  2. Them Sharks made a move... to get themselves out of first seed. Will the Hawks make a similar move??

    Ericsson may play forward

    they should have tried Big E as forward... Meech looks like trash

    Free Agents

    For next season anyway, I can't see Kenny getting handcuffed into another long-term deal. This probably means no top-six forward, unless it comes through trade somehow. Kenny might have no choice but to spring for a big one or two year deal for a goaltender (turco? chris mason??) of course, there's also a huge possibility that Lids hangs them up. If that's the case, the Kenny's needs would drastically change.

    Free Agents

    If we don't make it to the second round... a goaltender. probably a stud d-man if Lids hangs them up.

    new post-season idea

    they should re-seed at the Conference final-level (final four)... this would ensure the Cup finals are not the usual (last two years notwithstanding) snorefest.

    Bertuzzi SUCKS

    Bert clearly has succumbed too much into Detroit's finesse game. He fails to shoot on blatant scoring chances, sends blind passes to the open wing, and gets separated from the puck far too easily. Bertuzzi just needs to simplify his game. He must accept that he's not some cog on an energetic checking line. He's got to take it upon himself to be the Go-To guy on his line... shoot more ala Samuelsson. gawd I can't believe I'm saying this. *gasp*

    if its even possible to play softer than Filppula... Bert is showing that its definitely possible

    Franzen

    Having Franzen and his production back is wonderful... but a better question might be "Can Franzen stay healthy for a whole season"??

    washington at chicago

    Something is off on this team (Blackhawks). Maybe its the goaltending or a simple leadership issue, I don't know... I just can't see them taking it all this year. Mind you, I like our chances even less this year, oh well.

    Questioning the Wings Leadership

    why is everyone so confident that Lidstrom will re-sign at a huge discount if at all (retirement)??

    How many players from Team USA would have made Team Canada?

    if we were talking about the reverse, I doubt Pronger and Neidermayer would be there... the Americans were going for a younger, quicker team

    too bad the KHL didnt take Filppula

    KHL hopes to add Kovalchuk

    let the KHL take whomever they want. If they can sustain a whole league of superstars, more power to them. More money for our American and Canadian kids.

    Is Babcock a bad coach!?

    I'll be the first to admit and eat crow... Babs did a phenomenal job once into the elimination rounds, an even better job in OT of the gold medal game. I'll happily eat even more crow if he can get our Wings back to the Conference finals...

    2010 NHL Trade Deadline Thread - March 3rd, 3:00 PM ET

    i wish the Wings could have gotten in on the Aaron Ward trade/dump.

    Olympic Gold Medal TV ratings

    Curious... were there any Canadian figures released??
  21. From what I saw in the Olympics, it was good to see Franzen skating hard. It was also good to see Rafalski play some inspired hockey. Heck, even Filppula looked good. Datsyuk certainly did not look out of place. I am starting to think more positive on this last stretch of the season. the trade deadline is also right upon us... who knows, maybe Kenny can make a subtle addition to help spark our cause!
  22. Big party up North, everyone is invited!!

    Kopecky!

    i actually liked Kopecky when he was here... I just think the Blackhawks vastly overpaid to get him. Good for Kopecky, I guess.
