Id get in line for Sydor right now.

Wings have 4+ million in cap room.

A feud? So Dan Boyle may want a divorce from Tampa. Thoughts? Would he be a good addition for the Wings this year? Nov 18 A bit of bad blood appears to be starting to boil in Tampa Bay between Boyle and the Lightning surrounding his premature return to the ice following his first wrist surgery, reports the St. Petersburg Times. Recommendation: Uh-oh. In a case of he said-she said, the team and Boyle appear to be several miles apart. First, we have Boyle's agent Geroge Bazos: "It is my understanding Dan was clearly told there was no further risk of injury. Dan wanted to play. He said he could deal with the pain if there was no risk. Obviously, there was a risk." Then we have Lightning general manager Jay Feaster: "What Dr. Gray [the team's orthopedic specialist who did the first surgery] recalls telling Danny is in his experience he never had one of those types of injuries at that stage of its progression that didn't heal properly." Feaster continued: "I understand the frustration on Danny's part; we're frustrated, too. But there's a difference between frustration and looking to ascribe blame. The hockey club is not looking to ascribe blame. We got it fixed, we hope, and now it's about getting Danny back playing." This needs to be fixed fast as Boyle is a free agent come June. We'll monitor this for you. Edited in case link doesn't work.

IF they were going to trade him, which I don't buy, they would trade him to the east. Toronto, Carolina or Ottawa would be my bets.

Drew Sharp-article I cannot really explain this being so severe. I will say I had class and while I was home for the game, I couldn't be downtown for the game. I don't buy any of the reasons given for people not showing up. My money is on people being generally uninterested in hockey and blame ESPN and foolish Americans in general. Anyone think a real price drop is in the future?

No the 9 buck seats are available in advance, but only from the box office at the JLA. You have to go down there to get them. Also I think they only let you get one game a month. I am waiting for someone to figure out that you can buy all of these seats at 9 bucks and try to resell them for the 22 bucks. That is how most sell outs seem to occur today.

Gloating moment: I said time and time again that he deserved to be a top six forward last year. He is going to be the real deal this year eating up the minutes. I wouldn't be surprised if he hits 60+ points and 30 of them be goals if he is playing on the second pp unit and the first line.

Quincey can go down, so forget about him this year. Though I think Quincey's great play should make the Wings bolder and take a chance with the D. You can always get rid of the 7th defenseman and go back to Quincey who was solid in the offs. As for the forwards, we all have guys we like. I just don't have a clue, because it is who will fit in and play on the fourth line the best as well as develop. Which is something I don't think any of us can see outside of a practice.

That website is so stupid. Wings lose to a Canucks logo that may be one of the top ten ugliest I have ever seen, only for that logo to lose to the Blues? Plus this dumb crap? I am glad the Wings made the final four for greatest jersey on that ESPN tourny a few years back. I need this website to be invaildated so I can move on and forget about it forever.

I dont like the triangle that has the nhl logo on it. Why cant the logo just be on the sweater in the same spot without that stupid triangle. Wings look good though.

They do look smaller, but it is okay.

Uhhh how can we be losing to the canucks, who are in the bottom five with logos in my opinion choosing to keep that screwed up shark c when they could go classic with the stick logo. This is an outrage, go vote would you.

Was Borat doing the countdown???

Peter Forsberg, Darren McCarty, Danny Markov, Janne Niinimaa and Nils Ekman. Who of these would look good in the Winged wheel.

Hey guys, remember how much Lidstrom loved the new jerseys when they showed them off in the all star game? Guess what, same thing. These are basically going to be high tech versions of the same jersey they have worn since the last time we changed jersesys before the earth cooled down and water formed on the surface.

I bet when they are on the players and on the ice, you will not be able to tell the difference.

Anyone who doesnt choose 16 doesn't have a heart or a brain in their body.

That's the way a classy guy gives the finger. a bit of a FU to Burke in his own way.

I wish someone would just put him out of his misery. What a whiny little grrrrr.....

You are not wrong at all. That did happen. It was always temporary though and I called for it before hand. Franzen was treated as patchwork, a jack of all trades, a stop gap, and an option B. I think this tread is about him being option A. I am just saying that I wanted this last year before the playoffs even got going. They should give him a chance to prove himself.

Uhh, in the playoffs last season I was calling for Johan to be on the second line because he was earning it while Bertuzzi and crew were not. I still think he should be a top six forward, and with a thiner group at the top he should be given the nod. We certainly have enough 3rd and fourth liners available to let him go up.

We should go after Cammalleri, and he should change his name to Calamari. It would be more fitting.

that was a blast. BTW Schneider should have signed with a pro beach hockey team. That way he could get two pointers and feel better then being a duck.

BTW, I think Pavel is going to end up on the second line with Igor because of their history.

Forget them, sign here Ziggy.
