    Greatest Sports Movie

    I have. It was only ok,but I think I had my expectations too high in the first place. Reminder to myself: Watch it again. I don't think I've ever seen a hockey movie that would suck BIG TIME. I admit that the Mighty Ducks and Slapshot 2 with Stephen Baldwin weren't that great but still they were about hockey. And not some forbidden romance in the 17th Century.

    There are some absolute classics on that list *sarcasm* ,but not Slap Shot...?

    Senators: five games without a win

    Yeah,they've won the biggie a few times like the Patriots. No wonder they're being compared to them. Someone should put this quote in his/hers sig. A true Classic.

    11/29 GDT: Red Wings 4, Lightning 2

    No worries,Aussie! Good solid win for the Wings,Valtteri with +1. Now I'll update my sig before Offsides gets here. Btw, ZDH with -2? I was forced to watch that one,what a great game though! Even Weber & Crisp couldn't spoil it (much ).
  7. I haven't seen this anywhere else,I only have link for Finnish site. http://www.mtv3.fi/urheilu/hockeynight/uutiset Edit: link for the Sweden's biggest newspaper: http://www.aftonbladet.se/sportbladet/hock...ticle1354491.ab Basically it says that Sweden is going to withdraw from player transfer agreement,'cause Swedish teams are sick of losing their best players to the NHL at such a young age. Most of them are going directly to the AHL. Chairman of the Swedish ice hockey federation,Christer Englund says: " We have calculated that we've lost 65 players to the NHL this year alone. Only 7 of them are playing in the NHL". They're currently negotiating with IIHF over this matter,seems like even IIHF is starting to question the deal Europeans have with the NHL. If IIHF doesn't resist,Sweden has until 1.1.2008 to withdraw from their agreement.

    13. Never Forget Mac #25 82 13. Aussie_Wing 82 22. FinRedWing 79 The battle continues... Same here,although I haven't seen myself higher than now. I had terrible scores all October and now the NHL has been impossible to predict,you can actually rise a few places in the standings if you get 9/20.

    And HFS could work,don't you think? They scored a beauty tonight. Lightning will be awesome. Edit: And I think Dats is on fire, 5 games / 15 points coming up?

    Good game,great win! Why did these Versus guys say : "Everybody in Detroit is telling Samuelsson to shoot more"? Yeah,I'd think so. And so is Hudler.

    Central Division, finally strong?

    I've been thinking about this... How's for example going 0-8 against the Blackhawks this season is going to help us in the playoffs?

    11/27 GDT: Red Wings 5, Flames 3

    Not against the Central? That's a W then. Who would've known? I'll still have some sig updating to do,he'll score on the PP. You're right,Sir. Bubbles IS grit.

    Congrats to the winner! You can say that again... 45 out of 48 would've gotten better scores,if only they had picked against their own reasoning? That's this season's NHL for you!

    2008 nhl free agents

    D-men would have to be cheap then. But I do like your tactic that we sign 5 UFA's,July would be exciting as hell.

    Babcock seeks scoring balance

    I can agree with that. But "decent scorers" Sammy & Hudler have 12 points,Filppula has 8. So he has potential to blow them away in points?

    Babcock seeks scoring balance

    Valtteri's a good talent,he will bounce back and he'll get a multi-year extension. I wonder, does Aussie Wing love Filppula more than you hate him?

    Burke wants GM's to be able to accumulate dead money

    Kenny's not a huge trader anyway,this would possibly only make other teams better. So as a Wings fan,I'd pass.

    2008 nhl free agents

    Re-sign everybody who isn't going to retire and then look at the payroll & UFA's. I don't want to see another Lang / Williams thingy next season.

    11/24 GDT: Blue Jackets 3, Red Wings 2 (SO)

    That is worrying,but maybe even more worrying is if they came ready to play in other losses we'd had. I certainly don't think they did,but Babs seems to think so.

    Great pics,good video. I kind of liked the sound world on that video,it was like bunch of aliens doing play-by-play.

    11/24 GDT: Blue Jackets 3, Red Wings 2 (SO)

    Sadly it has gone to that repeatedly against the Central.

    God has forsaken Z for the time being. I'll trust in Ozzie's glove saves.

    I'm starting to believe OsGod can't lose this game.
