    FanSided.com's All-Time Red Wings Team (as a 23-man roster)

    no Hull? did i miss it?

    Dekeyser signed. 2 yrs $2.187 million AAV

    i find it a bit unsettling that Holland and Dekeyser both say........"nothing to worry about". If that is the case, whats the problem?

    Detroit offers D Raphael Diaz tryout

    local newspaper here in Zug says Diaz figures its his best shot to get on the roster full-time. In addition, there is already Hiller and Bärtschi, who play with him on the national team and Bob Hartley, the Calgary Coach used to coach rival Zug team Zurich. I am bummed he didn't try out with the Wings but i get the reasoning. Personally, I hope it works out for him

    Helmer: First one to get a herniated disc in the new Season?

    my apologies to the typo but the upside is that this thread has become fun to read plus, maybe the accidental nickname will stick :-)

    That Time Mike Vernon Used the Jedi Mind Trick

    tried to find some footage on the Roy meltdown and came across this from 2011. Boy, we sure have selective memory, including me.... http://blogs.thescore.com/nhl/2011/03/31/ten-goals-in-one-game/

    Samuelsson signs new contract....... with Djurgarden.

    at his age...good move playing at home and not Russia for an extra buck

    Tatar Signs 3 Year Deal $2.75 mill AAV

    this always cracks me up: "as per club policy, terms of the deal are not revealed" 2 hours later you read them on 15 websites....and this one

    Post Everytime You Look

    offseason sucks but only a couple of weeks until we see the line combo threads again

    Which Players Agency would you choose and why ?

    since i am not a professional athlete or hollywood star, i have no clue. No offence, but that is like asking "who is your favourite cricket player".

    Wings sign Zengerle

    man this is surreal......the Wings sign Cleary and Quincy and three guys i never heard of.... the times are changing We are loading up the days of...."Red wings sign Robitaille, Hull and Hasek" in one week are over

    Kane & Toews Sign Identical 8-year, $10.5M AAV Extensions

    wow, what an idiotic commercial

    Wings re-sign Cleary $1.5 mill + $1mill in game bonuses

    Wings re-sign Cleary $1.5 mill + $1mill in game bonuses

    2014 Offseason League Signings and Trades

    two x 10.5 million is nuts in my book but i guess they had no choice 164 million tied up for two players for 8 years.

    Article on FAs and Red Wings

    i think this article here is very balanced and on the mark http://bleacherreport.com/tb/ddsth?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=newsletter&utm_campaign=detroit-red-wings

    Hockey News: Red Wings ‘D’ hunting

    Personally, I like out team Day 4 and still no significant signing. Yikes
  21. Spongewingredpants

    Quincey re-signed by DET. 2 yr s $4.25 mill AAV

    well, Cleary is next, so we are on a roll
  22. Spongewingredpants

    Ehrhoff or Niskanen

    i would like both to be honest. The Wings success in the past always had to do with a good defence corps
  23. Spongewingredpants

    Dan Cleary may return...sigh

    After reading some comments by Holland, I am going to curl up in a corner, thinking that he will resign Cleary while potentially trading some of our young studs
  24. Spongewingredpants

    Now some gritty forwards.

    i would prefer scoring forwards and real defensemen

    Tortorella To Be Fired

    4 years remaining on his contract.....nice severance pay
