    9/24 game against the Lightning, on tv or not?

    sorry I haven't been able to completly pay attention to the game I'm at work so all I heard were Grigs penalties as his only stand out, thats all I really hope I'm wrong though

    so nobody answered who has been impressive and who has sounded not so good; Grigs sounds too be that latter man I really hope he comes through in the end.

    it seems like the wings are the only team really that doesn't have their lines set and are still playing a lot of potential players not their main lines.

    Battle for Roster spots getting tighter...

    as a wing fan you should understand we don't like to give players time, just like if a player slumps trade him.....

    how can you say fisher wasn't a bad ass are you new to the Wings, the season all that stuff happened he broke out and was defending everyone laying some monster hits and not taking s***.

    My take of the roster/preseason from 9/22

    I think Ericcson has an arguement to be made. I must say I wasn't impressed at all with the Zetta line against Minn. but man did they turn it on against the Pens. Also you can't split up the Kopecky Maltby Drake line they looked great

    Battle for Roster spots getting tighter...

    We played gritty last year in the playoffs so thats not an issue we took the hardest road and almost survived. Calagry, San Jose, and Anahiem grit is the problem but I do think we need someone that will just straight up kick your ass if you mess with Dats or Zette. But we won't get one obviously unless he can provide more then just fighting, if we did then everyone would start bitching about how he takes stupid penelties or doesn't win every fight. The only player I wish we wouldn't have passed on last year was Laraque but oh well. seriously Drake Kopecky Maltby line is gonna be a tough hitting line especially because Drake is bringing back old Malts and hopefully will teach Kopecky to be a damn man. Franzen is a beast and seems like he is throwing is weight around, Lilja actually realized he was kinda big last year so he is set to improve. Dats was even checking people, not to mention the tiny Cleary going nuts out on the ice. So we are looking tougher this year then we did early last year.

    Battle for Roster spots getting tighter...

    well maybe like Lilja he'll realize his size is an asset

    Battle for Roster spots getting tighter...

    agreed but isn't Ryno supposed to be kind of a tough guy? Not always fighting but thought he was willing to?

    Don't mind Ryno but I really think they should consider Downey, haven't even seen Clark so.....

    xGDT (9/20): Wild @ Red Wings

    who is this clark guy, I've seen like 3 threads on him and people really seem positive. I hope to see more of Grigs so I can actually have an opnion, plus with all this hype on Kindl can't wait to see him.
