    March 26th, Bloodbath at the Joe

    according to DMac it was the turning point, in the book about the rivalry they state it showed the Wings no longer were just going to be pushed around and they learned that going into the playoffs. They were tougher and meaner and better.

    Will we get bigger and meaner?

    I ask this because I believe after 96 and we were bounced by the Av's and year before Devils, according to the Dater book, Holland was quoted stating that they needed to get bigger and meaner, and so they did. Regardless of the outcome of the series we know we will be seeing the Ducks in the playoffs for years to come, and they will continue to take cheap shots on our players. We know next year the team will look very different, so do you think Holland will once again move from less pretty to more gritty, like he did from the 95 team eventually to the 97 team.

    I would really like to have Orr he isn't great but he is a serviceable player and a good fighter. Brashear is a straight goon, take it for what it's worth, he is a true enforcer; in the sense he doesn't care who it is I will f' them up if they do something to my team.

    you can't possibly think I'm serious about that trade. Also I agree with the Domi statements, lastly it's not so much the leading in the fight, it's the unwilling to throw a punch. When you just stand there and take it your bound to get f***ed up. Even if your swinging and missing your not giving the opponent much time to put power behind his shots. (generally speaking)

    I suppose I was essantially saying meaner=more aggresive. If we had bottom 6 full of Helms we would be great.

    I'm not just talking about an enforcer, just some meaner sons a ******* out there. Imagine having like 2 Drakes out there, I mean pepper a little bit more hate in there. Like I said though I think they are going that way, when replacing Draper=Helm who is a wrecking ball, Maltby=Abby who seemed in the AHL anyway to have an edge, we just need a few more. Granted you aren't going to find a Lucic everyday, but how about Maltby/Draper/and a 5th rounder for Lucic

    LEINO!

    you know people keep saying we need Leino to be in the top 6 in order to use him, well let's do it then. We could put Cleary on the 4th with Helm and Abby, and Leino in his spot.

    What's Up with Datsyuk

    he is beyond snake bitten he needs to get it going bad, hopefully Scott N is good for something and knocked something lose to get Datsyuk going.

    and along with recurring threads we have recurring assholes with the same tired bitching, it's simple if you don't like it stay out. Would that be so hard?

    Will we get bigger and meaner?

    it's not the Wings style to ***** like Ducks or Pens. Regardless if we are going to the old nhl ways then we have to set ourselves up to succeed the old NHL way. Also it's only that way until Crosby or OV have the old nhl way done to them, then we'll see Bettman on the phone.

    Will we get bigger and meaner?

    yeah, I can understand that. I just think it's a bit tiresome to see Pavel having to defend himself, Hossa, and injuried Rafalski, etc. But like I said I think Holland is already in the move of doing it, like the Stu pick up, I bet they probably would have been if the Hossa deal didn't fall into his lap (but you never pass that up)

    Will we get bigger and meaner?

    well there back end is slowly getting bigger anyway, you have Big Rig, you have Kindl who is 6'3, and then you have Kosolov who is 6'4. So Holland does look like he is moving that way, plus money wise 3rd/4th liners aren't that much, plus the Wings generally get some nice deals, I don't think it's impossible. Also P. Marlowe I love people that just come into a thread to ***** about it, good job you joke.

    are wings developing their prospects too slowly?

    have to say no the system seems to work, and I think the young players play even harder in when up because they know it isn't just given to them. Also I would like to say for how bad the Griffins were last year, I'm excited with the huge turn around and how good they were this year, I can't wait to see the young guns play more and more.

    What, no backgound check?

    because not calling them out put them on a huge tear to make the playoffs............ TB is a joke.

    Kopecky's injury will likely require surgery

    f*** why don't the wings players learn you're going to get your ass kicked if you don't throw a single ******* punch. I'm sorry Kopecky unlike most I like you, but throw a punch and it's less likely s*** like this happens.
