    Official 2014 NHL Trade Deadline Thread

    These trades (Penner for a 4th??!?!?!) are not out of Holland's league. Why is he sitting on his hands?

    Luongo to Panthers

    Uh, I think Vancouver is going to trade for a goaltender. Heh.

    Naming the New Arena

    FYI, Deadspin did a hit-piece on the Wings and the Ilitch family this afternoon: Detroit Scam City: How The Red Wings Took Hockeytown For All It Had

    Sounds like good news to me if he's 3 for 3. Hope it clears up soon.

    NHL players will not participate in 2018 Olympics (Mod Post #99)

    You mean the World Championships. The still unannounced World Cup would be NHL sanctioned, probably mandatory (like the ASG), and would probably replace the World Championships on years it occurs. We'll see if they can pull it together.

    Trade Deadline Prediction Time

    I think Holland will be under some pressure (real or anticipated) from Christopher Ilitch to try to not miss the playoffs. He'll make a trade, but most likely a minor one. No big splashes from KH, kids.

    Ryan Miller, Steve Ott traded to St. Louis Blues

    BOOM. This was a good splash to get things started. I like the deal for both sides, but the Blues obviously look better.

    Trade deadline fast approaching - who should we target?

    Luongo comments on Kesler trade rumors: He would know!

    Pekka Rinne cleared to play,sent to Admirals for conditioning

    Wow, thats great news. Hopefully he can get his stamina back up in time for the playoffs, no doubt that will be hell to do.

    Trade deadline fast approaching - who should we target?

    About a week to the trade deadline. It should heat up this weekend. Can anyone give even a partial rundown of who is on the market?

    Injury Updates

    So I can agree with you! Yeah, he's one of two marquee players on this team... A true pillar of the Wings. The Olympics are held in his home country and he gets to be the captain. This opportunity won't happen again in his hockey career. Most of you would do the same in that context, so I don't understand all the whining. Must be the long winter.

    Official 2014 Olympic Hockey Thread (Admin warning #316)

    I think you're overstating things in terms of the Gold. First of all, the Bronze is won, not gained with a loss like the Silver. Team USA went home empty handed, and established new records of shame (first back to back shutouts for an American team since the 1920s, worst shutout in the medal round in Olympic history, etc). This crap goes in the record books, a bronze would have been something... Now this 2014 squad will look awful in the history books.

    Official 2014 Olympic Hockey Thread (Admin warning #316)

    Pretty good argument for the World Cup to replace it? Round robin and qualification games could be held in two groups, each on both sides of the Atlantic. Medal round would be alternated between NA and Euro hosts each tournament.

    Include Johnson, Byfuglien, and Okposo. Btw, can you see the same unspirited play if Torts was USA coach instead of Bylsma?

    Zetterberg out with herniated disc

    Thank you Holland apologist

    Zetterberg out with herniated disc

    Update: Extremely disappointing management decisions here. From opting to ignore the bone fragment three months ago, to allowing him to go to the Olympics like that....WTF Holland?

    NBC isn't much better. Very barebones broadcast, no stats shown at all.

    Good pressure by the Americans so far, Kessel is bringing it... Again

    USA-Canada Thread

    That's a good point, I think it's because they have their heads firmly planted somewhere. Still, can't you stream it?

    Official 2014 Olympic Hockey Thread (Admin warning #316)

    I thought Niemi was a better choice to replace Rask, imo. Lehtonen has never really impressed me yet. I didn't see the game...would they have won with Rask in net?

    Olympic Hockey Streams?

    Yeah, that one is down atm. Where are you finding these?
