    3/7 GDT: Blue Jackets 8 at Red Wings 2

    seriously get the f*** over it, Ozzy sucks man its that simple. He is not the Ozzy of last year, things don't always stay the same. People get older, people get slower, I mean come the f*** on. How can anyone defend the s*** that Ozzy has done on the ice this year. Hell if we had an ice girl playing goalie the score would have been 8-2 but at least it would be understandable.

    3/7 GDT: Blue Jackets 8 at Red Wings 2

    we for sure need to stop giving out NTC unless we get a massive discount from the player in return; and I mean massive. The NTC alone is what is going to kill the Wings. Also god forbid we actually think that if someone breaks through the defense we expect a goalie to do his damn job and ******* stop a shot; Ozzy sucks, let him ***** and cry on the bench all playoffs. Seriously they need to just bring up Howard and let him have a fair ******* chance to show what he is made of, at least give us some ******* options. For the management to have such great results all the team, you wonder what the f*** they are doing an awful lot.

    Babcock Begins To Reveal Playoff Lines

    they are not going to sit Kopecky especially while he is breaking out. I don't know but most likely Helm/Leino will be sitting until someone proves they shouldn't be in the line up

    Thoughts on Downey

    He is a bad hockey player, but a above average fighter for those that disagree please tell me how many fights he lost last year? Maybe 1, beyond that he was the soul reason for the Draper goal do to his forechecking. I hope he stays in the line up for the rest of the regular season simply because he is very entertaining.

    Thoughts on Ericsson?

    3/4 GDT: Red Wings 3, Avalanche 2

    Big Rig looked good out there, last game I didn't see why everyone was saying he did so good. Kopecky has really come on while the top line has gone cold; it will switch back of course. Glad to see Flip getting confidence this is how we need to play going into the playoffs

    Trade Franzen

    Trade Franzen

    please tell us how many proven playoff goal scorers the Wings have gotten rid of in the trade deadline for HOPES that someone else could fill in; that can also play defense and isn't afraid of going into corner? especially for a 3/4th liner who fights?

    Trade Franzen

    It really makes no sense to get rid of Franzen a proven playoff score for a potential goods. I think Franzen is a bit overrated myself but he still has better hands then pretty much all the players you named and is a big body, besides this year Holland is going for gold. If we got rid of someone that probably would have made us weaker and we weren't able to get back in return an equivalent to what we would have given up. What exactly would you have been looking for Neil? What does he bring that proves he is more valuable in the playoffs? Besides if were to have made a move it seems most logically it would have been on defense; we a proven deep amount of offensive talent; Leino/Helm sitting out. Where our defense is weaker at the 6 spot, so who would you of had in mind to go from the 4-6 spot on defense?

    I seem to be also, he probably would be decent against eastern playoffs but I'm not to worried about him playing against us or SJ

    2009 NHL Trade Deadline Thread

    It would be stupid for them to trade him anyway because they are in the playoffs. Unless they get a fat deal, which is unlikely

    glad we won't have to face a team with him added, although I wish we would make a move to counter act the flames. Prefer on defense though.

    2009 NHL Trade Deadline Thread

    idk if i would get rid of howard, maybe they are thinking of trying to keep conklin until larsson is ready. Neil idk how I feel about that we have so much depth as is, I'd rather trade a 4th liner for him. If anything it should be howard and a forth for Neil. well nevermind then

    Thoughts on Ericsson?

    I'm sorry but I didn't see very much from him that everyone else did. But that's not a bad thing for a depth dman if your name isn't mentioned that essentially means it was a good thing. Although I would say he he wasn't afraid of the corners and wasn't knocked off the puck, he made the simple but easy passes. I really couldn't have asked anything more or less of him other then to just keep it simple, I do hope to see more of a breakout though, I trust that maybe I just didn't focus enough on him because everyone else even on 97.1 has some high praise for him; and usually they know dick about hockey.
  20. what happened to Voros he was tearing it up earlier in the season?

    Ericsson/Downey Up; Helm/Leino to GR

    has anyone else been impressed with Kopecky as much as I have recently? I mean it seems like since youth came on the line and maybe he is healing that he is playing much better. (maybe some Drake did get into that vampire like skull of his)

    Red Wings' Injury Updates

    well it seems like he was knocked stupid in the 1st few sec. of the fight, beyond that is just Weber beating an out on his feet man; not that he knew.
  23. ben_usmc

    Ericsson/Downey Up; Helm/Leino to GR

    Well I hope Downey realizes this time what he is being brought up to do, be our enforcer. I also hope Big Rig knows if he wants a chance of seeing the playoffs he needs to clearing the crease and playing like that mean dman we've all been asking for.

    Red Wings' Injury Updates

    are you kidding me? A ******* *****, being a ***** would have been hiding behind the refs or pulling an Ott. Besides that it was Weber who started the fight, and I'm sure you would have called him a ***** had he not stood up for himself. Got to love internet bad asses.

    I dont think Lilja slipped he just got tagged hardcore. You can't win them all though, glad at least he had the balls to stand up for himself.
