maybe the Kostitsyn boys will fancy a trip back across the pond?

Holland needs to be very pro active in some significant deals/trades as well as a good draft or it wont only be his mojo he'll lose.

Looks like the Oilers are up for game six, 12 mins into it and their 4-0 up!

Jurco comes to mind

Good to see our old boy Calle send the Preds thru with an EN

Heard of tongue in cheek ?

Hawks roster is to loaded for him to get a place anytime soon. A year in Milwaukee then a chance with the Preds or 3 years in Toledo learning the process with a chance of a game in Grand Rapids then another year before a chance in the bigs if there's plenty of injuries. I can see why he's taking his time in deciding lol

i see hes listed as helping Patterson next season in GR or Toledo, depending on what happens with the Redwings current NMs' interesting comment at the end

Originally i would say ambition DD, but as you point out money seems the big factor these days. He's an intriguing prospect for sure and if I'm honest I think he'll be a casualty of the 50 contract issue. It would be a shame not too get a look at him either in camp or in the minors.

It's ok Kenny has a plan, he's just signed another Czech goalie to a one year deal. Trade in the pipeline kids.

So who gets exposed in the expansion draft now?

Red Wings not offering Mike NHL contract, although he may get a deal with the Walleye or maybe the Griffins.

A restoration, as to productivity, usefulness, or morality. Working on something to improve or make better.

I think you may be right Frank, Maybe Hischier at a push and then we are struggling for the third guy. I do like the looks of the young Finns Heiskanen and Valimaki but not ready just yet

Well unless we had a top 3 pick I cant see any other pick below 3 coming straight in to the line up so we are at the status quo before the lottery. ie Kenny and his crew have to get creative to improve our opening day roster. So now we wait till the draft week.

Brilliant, first time we sucked in years and still get shafted for the pick we should have got

Need to open spots up for the ufas they are targeting can only have 50 so I guess we are freeing up spaces

Ok , so I'm thinking maybe we already have the player in the system. A former 10th overall pick that just needs to improve his skating and first steps speed.

Kenny is going to surprise everyone and pick Cody Glass.

Any news as to where this kid is leaning towards signing for? Thought originally he was making a decision by Wednesday,anyway I'm thinking that maybe our front office would have told him about the seasoning process we have and that may put him off coming here.

Maybe I'm easily swayed, but 81pts in 62 games with a +62 made me look twice. I get hes overage and playing on a top top team in Erie but he must have some upside. Still will be interesting to see if anyone takes a chance on him.

I hate to play teacher, but play nicely and by the way it's , woe is me .

I'd say that Kenny would find a bust at the #7 pick !

Talking of Swedes I see Mr Brunnstrom has retired from hockey.
