  1. Good for Nabokov. This isn't just about being claimed by a perennial bottom feeder, it's about being claimed by one of the most poorly managed franchises in all of professional sports. How can anyone blame the man for not wanting to deal with the consistently bad decisions made by Garth Snow and Charles Wang? Of all the teams to possibly be claimed by, the Islanders are definitely a nightmare for any player.

    Kari Lehtonen's New Mask

    Awesome mask, although it seems like it would have been more appropriate for Phoenix.

    Jiri Hudler Watch Thread

    ^^ I don't think that guy plays here anymore, we got the "not in a contract year" version on the roster now chillin.

    11/26 GDT: Red Wings 2 at Blue Jackets 1

    O'Halloran is a ******* clown, seriously.

    Rafalski to play vs. Phoenix

    When will the Hudler "jump starting" end? This guy plays like he took floating lessons all summer from Brett Hull and Robert Lang. The PK is suffering so he can skate at 50% effort.

    Rypien suspended 6 games

    Have to agree with some of the comments, I think it's very cheesy for "the victim" to try and immediately cash in on this. Yes it was inappropriate, but nothing came of it, he should laugh it off.

    Who will be the whipping boys for '10-'11?

    Based on what I've seen in the preseason Ericsson is well on his way to fulfilling this role.

    9/24 Pre-season GDT: Chicago Blackhawks at Red Wings

    I thought Owens was really impressive last night, despite Babcock's comments about Emmerton and Mursak, I thought Owens was a bigger presence than either one of them. Owens-Abdelkader-Helm would be a serious forecheck.

    #DanEllisProblems

    Someone already edited his Wiki bio: "In September 2010 Ellis went all crybaby (on Twitter) about how much money he makes as a professional athlete. Given the climate of the 2010 recession no one is impressed."

    Steve Downie re-signs with Lightning

    This guy is scum, I like grit, but not in this case.

    Wings sign Ruslan Salei

    Confirmed by Freep http://www.freep.com/article/20100809/SPORTS05/100809033/1433/Red-Wings-pick-up-defender-Ruslan-Salei

    Wings sign Ruslan Salei

    Wait a minute, so the Wings sign Modano, then sign the guy who was suspended for crushing his face into the boards?

    Lukas Krajicek

    What's the point? a big non-physical defenseman to play in the 6th spot is exactly what we DONT need.

    Would You Buy A Modano Jersey?

    I would probably consider it if I had the money, it would go nicely with my Schneider and Fischer jerseys

    Willie Mitchell

    According to this article Mitchell does qualify for bonuses due to his 100 days on injured reserve last season : http://www.startribune.com/sports/wild/blogs/

    NHL itinerary for the "Shanahan Summit"

    A lot of these seem like ideas for a video game, not actually plausible changes to improve the sport. Particularly the "Overtime: three minutes of 4-on-4; three minutes of 3-on-3; three minutes of 2-on- 2 followed by shootout (5 players per team)." which is just ridiculous.

    Willie Mitchell

    Adding Mitchell to the defense would be pretty great, this team is shaping up to be a serious threat. The season can't start soon enough.

    Mike Modano signs with Detroit

    This should work out nicely, 3rd line is a serious threat now.

    Talbot calls Ovechkin a "Douche"

    Why is this surprising? all evidence suggests that Ovechkin is in fact, a ******. 1. Interview where he's doing 185 mph in his Benz on 495 in DC = ******. 2. Pushing a girl and knocking her camera out of her hand = ******. 3. Snowing the little kid in Montreal = ******.

    Ritola, Miller or Eaves?

    I'm thinking Ritola is history, unfortunately he never got a chance to really prove himself, but I don't see Holland dumping Miller or Eaves at this point, and I'm guessing Modano will sign shortly.

    TSN: Discussion of Modano To Wings

    Not what the Wings need, but I certainly wouldn't complain about it. I'd rather see Modano signed than Maltby.

    Good luck, thanks for playing?

    Jimmy Nill's Annual Bonus Picks Announced

    Um Yes? the Wings haven't had a true villain on the team in 10 years.

    Holland Looking to sign an Enforcer

    I call it like I see it...there are at least 10 guys out there right now who could easily fill this role at a salary the Wings can afford. If Holland can't see them, then he's choosing not to.

    Holland Looking to sign an Enforcer

    I'll believe it when I see it. Holland is looking for some mythical creature for the 4th line who will score, hit, fight and do it all for $500k and either be European or over 35 years old.
