    Leftovers

    according to cap geek, the salary cap is 64 million and the Wings sit at 66 million......and they havent signed their RFA's..... they better shed and it could get ugly

    Brunner Contract Talks

    just saw Brunner parking his black Audi TT in front of the hockey stadium in Zug....he didnt look too busy

    Brunner Contract Talks

    almost....KHL. Detroit offered him 3 years for a total of 7 million. his agent said no. Devils didnt want to go above 2,5. now he is sitting at home running out of options. KHL could be a short term solution and I predict he will end up in Zug again before the end of the year

    i have the scoop but nobody will believe it

    Brunner Contract Talks

    dont think he is waiting....i think his agent gambled too much

    Brunner Contract Talks

    so....Brunner news? we need more two way forwards who are excellent at defense but cant score

    Brunner Contract Talks

    Brunner has no idea what his value is. He made like 400K max when he played in Switzerland. Its his ****** agent that told him...dude, i can get you 3,5 million Idiot..... Agent, not Brunner Its a real pity and i bet that Brunner would take the 2,5 million from the Wings but i dont see Holland extending the offer again. this is kind of like when nobody admits it was their fault that they screwed up

    Brunner Contract Talks

    Brunners agent screwed him. Inexperience by a rookie listening to his agent too much. Its a real pity, now he is possibly going to play for a crap team. If they are smart, they will make a short contract and Brunner busts his balls to get a better contract with another team in two years (hopefully the Wings)

    Question about Buying out Samuelsson

    with his playing time, we actually siged him for 1 year at 6 million lol

    Brunner Contract Talks

    i really thought the offeseason was about getting a top 4 d-man, resigning our guys minus Cleary and dumping Sammy....oh well, i was wrong turns out we need to sign more forwards
  13. Spongewingredpants

    Wings in on Alfredsson

    he can be on the same line as Franzen....it will be like intermission

    The Overreaction Thread

    not an overreaction, just an observation.... remember when the Wings were looking for FA's and they stood in line to sign my favourite year.....Hasek, Robitaille and Hull *sigh* now we cant even get Vinnie and holland gets excited over a dude who plays for the Panthers *sigh*
  15. this silence is making me nervous. i am going to lose it if Flip is resigned and Bunner isnt

    Jakub Kindl signs 4 year extension, $9.6m total, $2.4m/yr

    this is going to be interesting. Kindl gets a a nice chunk of money and the forum is debating Brunners value. I am thinkning if Brunner doesnt get 3 million, he will walk
  17. Spongewingredpants

    Datsyuk agrees to 3-year extension, $22.5m total, $7.5m/year

    its probably a fishing trip
  18. Spongewingredpants

    Cap might be worse than expected.

    Ericsson, Ericsson anybody.....
  19. Spongewingredpants

    Will Brunner be back?

    A guy like Brunner makes about 300-450K in the Swiss league. Only 2 teams could probably afford to pay more.

    WCQF Game 3 GDT - Ducks 4 @ Red Wings 0 (ANA leads series 2-1)

    wow, the insults and hostility towards the Wings is stunning. true fans. Monday they win and the same people will say we are on the road to the cup they lost one game in an ugly fashion. s*** happens. should they have? no but they did. lets move on. This is not the star studded team that won us cups. lets face it edited for spelling

    The Race for Eight: Blue Jackets, Stars, Wings

    did we just jinx ourselves with this thread?

    4/22 GDT: Coyotes 0 @ Red Wings 4

    i am stunned and then again not.... franzen has one good game and he is the power forward we wanted since Shanny was in his prime good game. much needed i just noticed i have a warming post and no clue when this happened...lol

    The Race for Eight: Blue Jackets, Stars, Wings

    i remember joking in a different thread how ironic it would be if the bluejackets finished the season in 8th place after they got Gaborik....
  24. Spongewingredpants

    Shocking, Wings aren't active as trade deadline expires

    LOL! Indeed!
  25. Spongewingredpants

    Shocking, Wings aren't active as trade deadline expires

    The Jackets acquire Gaborik... The definition of irony would be if they made the playoffs as the 8th seed and the Wings came in 9th place.....
