Babcock is on record as saying it will be Howard today

Anything the Wings do in terms of nightlife can't be worse than what Chicago does.

The only "fight" I saw was Mule taking hold of the guy that pushed Cleary.

On another note, if he really rejected $100 million, then maybe he is really after the Cup.

Hopefully the commercials will be up to par this year. They've sunk the last few years.

These last few years, Dats has never seemed shy to throw his weight around.

I didn't even realize that his hit was $3.7 million until reading the thread. Do not want.

Here's a pretty good quote from one of them over there:

That's it??? Trade fail!!!!!!!!!!

Does this mean Samuelsson gets his spot?

And God knows we need all the shootout help we can get.

If things don't work out in the defensive swamp they've built up, I easily see him bolting.

Please.

I'd bet that Claude Lemieux was a master of that.

Kovy Trade: What a joke!!!!

I'm not sure about bringing Koz back. As stated before, there was a reason he was traded (besides Hasek).

Detroit's doctor raging against Three Crowns LOS ANGELES / NEW YORK / LONDON. Johan Franzén poked from the Olympic squad - without anyone asking how the star forward was feeling. The announcement may now Detroit to attack Tre Kronor and question why not, Bengt-Ake Gustafsson called and asked. - I am surprised that I have not heard of Sweden. It was just to call. It sounds in my ears as they try to blame from themselves, "says Dr. William Clancy, who operated Franzen on behalf of Detroit. This has happened in FRANZÉN affair: October 8 Franzen damaging his left knee against Chicago and the diagnosis reads four month injury absence. November 18 Franzen hits Bengt-Ake, USA. Their last contact before the Olympic squad charged. December 21 Forward Star of celebrating Christmas in Sweden - and go ice skating during the holidays in their local area. December 27 Olympic squad charged. Franzen is not in spite of the federation captain can replace him until February 15. January 28 Detroit doctor Franzen cleared to play when he is ready. February 1 announcement: Franzen makes comeback February 9 against St. Louis. February 2 tells us that he can be ready for the Olympics even though he only played three games before. February 3, Bengt-Ake said he made the right not picked by Franzen. February 4 Franzen explains that he could play in the Olympics. Rebounds against Mats Näslund statement that Detroit pushed him into a comeback. The circus - and the fraction - around Johan Franzén continues. SPORT-Expressen has in two days examining petningen of the forward who has done most goals of all in the last two Stanley Cup finals. The audit revealed that the federation captain, Bengt-Ake Gustafsson was talking to Franzen last time in mid-November, and never talked to either Franzen, Detroit, or the physician in charge closer to 27 December, when the Olympic squad nailed. Followed Waldebäck advice Management relied instead on Three Kronors doctor Bjorn Waldebäck general perception of a cruciate ligament surgery takes six months to heal. In Detroit, however, has a completely different idea of how long it takes to heal: - I heard that someone there in Sweden, I do not know who said that "he (Franzen) can not possibly be ready after three months." That person is obviously a total ignorance of Dr. William Clancy fundamental science when it comes to the reconstructions of this kind, "said William Clancy in SPORT-Expressen reach him at the clinic in Alabama, shortly after he completed a surgery. "Operate hundreds" He states that he has operated on numerous athletes, including many hockey players: - I've done it on hundreds of athletes, and we have been lucky too: We have never encountered a case of graft. This does not mean that it will not happen, but the result is the same after three months and after six months, "says Clancy. Had expected a call He lists the names of Chris Chelios, Vladimir Molochov, Sandis Ozolinsh and Niklas Kronwall all, according to him, played hockey in the three months after surgery. - I can give you a list of every player who came back after three months using this method. He argues that there had been enough of a conversation we had, Tre Kronor, learned of the short healing time - and been able to charge Franzen for the Olympics. - I am surprised that I have not heard of Sweden. I mean, I know so many there and how many times have I been at the World Championships and met them? It was just to call, "said Clancy, who was the U.S. national team doctors throughout the 1990s and much later in the 2000s. Franzen self care Johan Franzén is cautious in his statements, but agree that it was known that the healing does not need to take six months: - Niklas Kronwall was of course a similar cruciate ligament surgery in autumn 2005 and played three games before he was called up as reserve for the Turin Olympics. He injured himself two weeks before me, if we look to the healing time. You mean Tre Kronor should have learned to like this injury could take less time to heal than the six months they have said? - So you could say. "Nothing to do with Detroit ' Bengt-Ake Gustafsson turn away from this criticism. He argues that he could not have a closer contact with someone in Detroit: - Detroit? They, we have nothing to do. We may of course lend him a few hours, or have had to borrow him if you say so. That we can not argue with them either, "said Bengt-Ake. Bjorn Waldebäck maintains its view that three months is too short, and believe it may also jeopardize the player's future. - This is an aggressive rehabilitation. That in such a short time, a cruciate ligament and running, one hundred percent and not likely cross the band's healing, the question I still am. "Shall be to him" William Clancy again: - I have to wonder who said that? I know most orthopedic groups in Sweden, there is a clever bunch at the Karolinska, among other things. I am surprised that they did not know better in the Swedish national team. Bjorn Waldebäck: - The order to stand for him. To regard me as a total ignorant. I have operated this for many years in Sweden, I do 60-70 operations per year. I think it has worked well, the methods and operations I have done.

Here's a question - Kovalchuk, Ovechkin, or Pavel Bure in their prime?

This. The Saints have been one of the feel good stories since Katrina, but this is still Peyton's time.

Armstrong wouldn't be terrible. Good 3rd/4th line player. But right now, his cap hit is $2.8 million.
