I know theyre technically not the same franchise, but I really don't mind having a throw back to the old Colorado hockey logo.

I don't follow this type of Internet sports journalism so I'm not familiar with the standards, but shouldn't the author be citing or referencing a source? I mean, what's the point of this article otherwise? The Red Wings MIGHT still sign Dan Cleary? Ok, an article stating they might not sign him would be just as valid and just as pointless.

That can't be...it looks like a ms paint mock up.

You wouldn't know it by going there. I'm sure enough of you have been to know you can't swing a dead prostitute without hitting a prostitute in Vegas. I don't have the economic knowledge to question the expansion from a business standpoint, but I hate the idea as a hockey fan.

I don't know the ins and outs of it, but I assume this is purely business related, they must see a profit in it.

The fans of one dimensional enforcers should be happy, 40 new jobs will open up.

I don't have the knowledge to make an informed guess, but I'm hoping it's Holmstrom.

Who is the better player Zetterberg or Toews. Prime vs. Present

That's MAN love, and it is good. -
So what does an all star pitcher make?
-
Are you implying there is a correlation between the tracking of advanced stats and the quality of the game? (Which of course is entirely subjective.)

And I danced with a guy who danced with a gal who danced with the prince of Wales! -
It may only benefit the team if they make it to the cup finals against the Sharks.

You absolutely CAN boycott, I'm just saying I think that if Dan Cleary playing 20 games upsets you so much that you no longer enjoy going to the games, you're probably being unreasonable. I mean how much did that change the on ice performance? You would have gotten your money's worth had Dan Cleary not played? I don't even think he was the worst player on the ice. It's like boycotting Planters because they put one less peanut in their $10 bags. Does it make that big of a difference? I mean, because no one is complaining about real problems like how the other side of the restrooms have mirrors in front of the communial urinals, so everyone can see your junk.

I'm certain Illitch has someone right now, working tirelessly to find out why they sold one less ticket last year. And I'm equally certain that said person will any day now make the connection between the unsold ticket and the Dan Cleary signing. Fingers crossed it happens before a new contract is agreed upon!! Seriously though, given the complexity of building a successful sports franchise and the almost unrivaled success achieved by the Red Wings particularly when faced with league constructed obstacles to hinder continued success, boycotting because of one marginally questionable descision that likely had no effect on the entertainment value of the on ice product, is bordering on ridiculous. Now boycotting because the water in the drinking troughs in the men's restrooms taste discusting is reasonable.
-
Wait,..so you're saying you had the means and resources to go to games, but chose not to, because of Dan Cleary? Please tell me he's a jaded ex lover you don't want to run into because that's the only way that makes sense.

Do they always? Is that why they're the perennial playoff choker?

Is the Strength and Conditioning Coach the person who diagnosis the mumps?

Strength and Conditioning? I don't know.

signed Red Wings sign D Mike Green (3-years, $18-million)
Mckinley25 replied to Dominator2005's topic in General
I know little about Green, but I feel like McCarty wins that no problem. -
Well warm up the firing squad then.

What were the charges?

Tarasenko re-signs with the Blues (60 mill/8 years)

Good, I'll probably be dead by then. -
Signed Wings sign Brad Richards 1 yr, $3 million
Mckinley25 replied to Wingzman91's topic in General
I think though, that when a GM is building a team he has to have some idea where the players he's signing are slotted to play, otherwise it'd just be completely random assortment of players. If Blashill wants to juggle after the team hits the ice, that's his job then.
