    2008 US Open

    Watched Blake v Young a little bit,great analysis of the game. Good call on Querrey winning,I know Berdych is a hardcore Red Wings fan,so I was hoping he'd do well. Didn't see the game or the stats yet,but I bet Querrey's been serving a lot of aces again. Haas v Gasquet are playing right now,looks like a possible 5 set thriller. Jarkko Nieminen managed not to lose in the 1st round,I'm pleased. He's been terrible lately. Today I'm looking forward to seeing Safin v Spadea and maybe even Stosur v V.Williams.

    Who drew you in?

    Admiring Sergei Fedorov's amazing speed & moves in the 1989 World Championships. I became a fan of his and thankfully Red Wings drafted him. When he joined the team,I kind of did too.

    Who would you want to see go to the KHL

    None from the NHL,but I wouldn't mind seeing Andy Delmore shine there.

    2008 Summer Olympics

    He's the best sprinter ever. He's only 20 and he'll dominate for years to come.

    Sabres' Numminen re-signs

    Teppo loves his hockey too much to call it quits. Welcome back!

    Leafs to trade McCabe to Florida

    Well, this makes sense if Bouwmeester doesn't want to re-sign with the Panthers and now Fletcher gets McCabe off the payroll. I'm waiting for first "Sammy for Horton" post.

    Your Thoughts on Best......

    I know,but I've seen enough evidence over the past year or so to have my opinion about NN & Filppula.

    Your Thoughts on Best......

    It's obvious you don't like the guy,that's all.

    For you personally.

    5 year extension must have been tough.

    Residual effect from Gretzky trade still felt today

    89,78% chance of me not knowing either.

    Lord Stanley's Summer Tour 2008

    I was @ Filppula's public Stanley Cup celebration yesterday,only a few hundred people turned up(Selanne got thousands),but it was a nice little occasion. I did get to touch the Cup,there goes my chance of ever winning it! Took some photos too,I'll post them later. These are from Finnish media:

    Biggest Red Wings news of the offseason this far

    Gotta go with Filppula re-signing for 5 yrs. Very important to me personally,although I do admit that the signing of Hossa was huge & surprising and it will give us the hunger we need to repeat.

    Filppula signs 5-Year, $15M contract

    We'll always have Wade. QFT

    Knew it.

    Bowman named Senior Advisor to Blackhawks

    I bet the first thing he does is to let Tallon know that Lang is lazy and he sucks.

    Bowman named Senior Advisor to Blackhawks

    Well,my hate against the Central (now mainly Chicago) grew a little bit. Didn't know it could though.

    Members photos

    How can one picture be better than Ledger's Oscar-worthy performance?

    Wild waive Mark Parrish

    GIDK!

    Filppula signs 5-Year, $15M contract

    Not that good against the Preds,but otherwise he was really good (especially in the finals where he was a beast) considering he played half of the playoffs with an injured leg.
  22. FinRedWing

    Filppula signs 5-Year, $15M contract

    I'm shaking like Arice89 after we got Hossa. 5 yrs,hell yeah! But with that salary comes big responsibility to put up huge points (at least in here),so I think he has to score 25+35 next season or he'll be the next LGW whipping boy.

    Jiri Hudler

    I think we all know NN dreams of a team full of Hudlers.

    Why wait until September?

    This article made me realize once again how bad the Eastern Conference is compared to the West.
