    Yzerman at Notre Dame

    Paul Ysebaert, wow that's a blast from the past. I got to meet Steve in the lobby at Grand Traverse in 98, I was so star struck I almost let him walk past me, but I managed to ask him for his autograph. He said: "Sure, you have a marker with you? " I said yeah and he signed my jersey, I told him that I hoped they had a great season. and he said thanks, I hope we do too. Very, very, VERY cool guy!

    Niedermayer and Selanne

    How many people in here would want to punch their computer monitors, if either of them (or both) pull a "Roger Clemens" and come back at the 1/2 way point and only play home games. I for one would be sick! :puke:

    NHL is killing hockey in Detroit

    I think it's everything mentioned here IMHO. The 5,000 games against Nashville,Chicago, Columbus etc..ticket prices and economy. I do believe there are certain games next year that will draw huge interest when they change the schedule, but to state the obvious , ticket prices NEED to go down. Does anyone here know which team has the lowest ticket prices?

    Martin Havlat injured in game vs Wild

    Another note on this topic, I really, REALLY miss CBC, it's the only drawback to having DirecTV.

    Agreed, the Hawks sure didn't lose that series because of Belfour he played out of his mind if I remember correctly.....

    I totally agree, I am a die hard Wings fan, but I would love to see ALL the O-6 teams put good, solid, competitive teams on the ice. When the Hawks and Wings went toe to toe in 95 WCF's it was very cool.

    TSN's "Expert" Panel Standings and Cup Picks

    I hope these predictions come true, not just because of the Wings, but a Wings-Rangers SCF would be the bomb diggity!! Not too mention it would help the NHL so very much nationally!!

    Nashville sale in jeopardy...

    The marketing gurus at NASCAR are geniuses as far as I'm concerned. ( except that Dale Jr's new car is butt ugly...) The NHL could learn a lot from NASCAR , the NFL, hell even pro wrestling. These are 3 groups that truly know how to market themselves. And I do hope you realize that I was totally kidding about the deliverance comment. I couldn't help myself.

    You know what? You're RIGHT! Quick all LGW members to my house to get pitchforks and torches, and we'll storm the offices in Bristol!

    I'm going to win the Mega Millions when the jackpot is 250 Million, buy the Preds, build an arena here in lovely Wolverine Lake, MI and charge nice low ticket prices and compete directly with Mr. Iilitch!

    Tim Cheveldae ??? It's gotta be Ozzie I would think...

    "Lets go Rangers!"

    Hmmm, that is interesting, if the NHL controls all teams' individual web sites, that sure would explain why the Wings' official site is so very lame!

    ESPN strikes again

    I would just chalk that up to bad proof reading, I'm sure they meant to say FORMER....

    Phoenix Coyotes

    I think Phoenix really is the most irrelevant team in the league right now.

    Nashville sale in jeopardy...

    I bet he will, no one else seems interested enough. If I were Liepold I would march right into Bettman's office , say thanks for talking me out of that original deal, Gary, GREAT thinking. And then punch him right in the face!

    How about that shootout Grigorenko goal?

    Good Deal. My family has property up there. Every summer when I was kid my Grandma would take me to that little party store in Roger's Heights and let me buy a Grape Crush and a comic book, then we'd go to the Fish hatchery in Reed City, ahhh how I used to love Big Rapids, but I digress.... I really hope Grigs has a full time role on the team this year!
