    Has your opinion of kenny changed?

    a role player is one that does a lot of things, but not a specific one great. if we have 4 lines of agitators=fun game where we lose 5-1 but threw some nasty hits! we have enough role players...cleary, abdelkader, helm, eaves,miller,samulesson, bertuzzi ...etc. if given the chance to acquire a sniper, or a pain in the ass "on this established team" ...I would have taken the sniper. i wasnt comparing them just for kicks...i know they are different players. the wings have limited seating at the table, grab the one we are lacking. yes...he is a **cough..."coaster" cough** but he has upside. see... "franzen" "hossa" "hull" semin isnt my first choice for the wings...but he was available on a one year, and has a track record for scoring. i just dont like tootoo, or pronger or crosby or cooke or jagr ..etc..... they have their place on teams...just not mine.

    Has your opinion of kenny changed?

    my only beef is with acquiring tootoo...i think that was a mistake. but i could be wrong. i think i would have gone after semin over tootoo. we have enough role players. hell, half the team is role players...a true scorer is needed. with pasha working on semin, he would have worked better for us than ovechkin. but who knows...maybe brunner can be the acquistion of the decade!

    Minor Bright Spot in Light of a Lockout Fan Contest

    silly people....the mayans predicted the return of the "instructor" in december, he will arrive, state that hockey is the only sport that needs to exist, show us all how to travel the planet with magnetism, and initiate the new hockey league whereas every country across the world plays each other. no more fuel needed, and travel time is approx 6min. to china. done. oh, and pasha still plays for detroit. book it.

    Helm takes puck to face, has fractured cheekbone

    well, helm is injured....time to start the season. bettman was just waiting for this. he know our Achilles heel. now he can set in motion who he wants to win the cup this year. get well soon "nightmare on helm street"

    Where would you go?

    New Zealand. they have an ice hockey league. stay in shape,be a star, help grow the popularity, make a little side cash, spend some time in a beautiful country, and continue to speak engrish. take the family on a year vacation! now...all i need is the hockey skills to do so. aw hell...train and play with the lacrosse and rugby teams too.

    What would your proposal be?

    my reply.... blow up the league. every owner can hold 4 players ( if mutually desired) (datsyuk-zetterburg-kronwall-howard) every player thereafter goes free agent with list of 6 cities( or more) desired to live. owners can draft on city desired players or, convince players to write in city. draft begins---randomly drawn. every round. if no one lists city, team folds. i.e. islanders,panthers,blue jackets etc...(this shows owner they are not wanted) 62 mil. cap 48mil. floor. 50/50 HRR 5 yr. max contacts. retirement ends contract/can not play nhl for duration of contract upon retirement 2 yr. entry level 2.5 mil cap. UFA status at 30. minor league players stay in system/farm of nhl team. season starts dec. 1st. 65 game season all new contracts, all new teams. injured players stay on paying contract for original team (not roster), once lifted off IR,immediately go to UFA. further draft plan is 1st. pick goes to first team NOT to make playoffs. 17th place. then down to 30, then16 to 1st. creates desired to play till end of season. no tanking. all star game consists of 3 teams over 5 days. teams split 50/50 pros/minors. captains draft. NHL pays out bonus to each team. teams call out charities. during 5 days, players interact with community doing events all over town. ( childrens field hockey games, learn to skate program, community clean up, soup kitchen, painting homes, feeding animals at shelters, visiting elderly homes, childrens hospitals etc....(no autographs!) tv crews follow them and get air time. point system is... 3 regulation win, 2 overtime win 1 overtime loss. winter classic game stays...voted by fans. teams and location. done... perks to new system.... players control "somewhat" their destiny,coaches,life. owners get a reset button. fans get excitement of new system in place,watch top quality hockey. merchandise goes crazy with new names and buzz about perfected system. players could work together to play with long time friends, drawback would be to drop payscale to afford dream team ideas. happy players means happy fans. end of season will mean something to everyone. all star game will add competitiveness. all star hosting city gets attention to less fortunate, draws attention and some needed help. draft assists only those who "want" it. did i miss anything? if we are gonna dream...lets go all in.

    Who was the better Wing/Player? Yzerman or Lidstrom

    i have to go with stevie....he was clutch, a motivator by heart, a hero to a town,an inspiration to a generation. he taught perseverance. lidstrom showed us what a true leader should be, a consummate professional, and a legend to the game. he taught excellence. its a hard call. when its family...you shouldn't have to choose.
  19. after watching the clips of him playing, that kid has a wicked wrister. even if he stands still ALA brett hull....he will score some goals for us. come on season. as long as he doesn't get creamed in the first 30 games....we may have a bona-fide scorer on our hands.

    Where in the World Is...

    i always liked Lebda. he seemed to get a bad rap from a lot of fans, its too bad. my opinion from the start was he should have been given a forward position. the boy had wheels and a nice shot.

    Our friend @HockeyyInsiderr lists anti-lockout teams...

    very interesting points. i hope to hell thats whats going on. the small market teams are blowing up the league. if bettman wants to keep his job, and his future, he needs to bring in a mediator.
  23. sad news indeed. but in retrospect..he lived a long and great life and has thousands of fans across the world that will remember his voice as a staple to the red wings history. we should all live our lives with the dedication he brought to hockey. i hope to shake his hand on the other side one day. Budd, you will be missed, but not forgotten. R.I.P.

    White as home jerseys or road jerseys?

    the whole idea behind wearing white at home is to draw the colors from other teams in for the fans. face it, if your a islanders fan, and they wear colors at home...everyone comes in wearing white. no fun. come on wings...go back to white at home. they just look better.
