    Datsyuk Move in Today's game

    If it's the one I'm thinking of, it was definitely the 3rd period. I don't know the exact time, but it sure caught the announcers attention.

    Igor Grigorenko

    I think he will. Holland and Nill were quoted earlier in the year saying they planned on bringing him over next year.

    Holland "eyeing" four players

    Can we at least all agree that Calder brings more than Williams? On a sidenote, I think Calder is going to be big in the playoffs. He plays the right way to have playoff success.

    Bring up Bootland

    The Wings 4th line was humming last night; there is no way I'd break that up.

    Shanny...(yet again lol)

    I think he fits better in NY than he does with us; he should stay there.

    Oilers retire Messier's #11

    The only other player that comes to mind is Ray Bourque (Boston and Colorado).

    Oilers retire Messier's #11

    They were only 300k apart, so Smyth could have just settled. Then again, what other organization would trade the face of their franchise over such a small amount. Edmonton comes out of this looking pretty bad, not just because of the trade, but they didn't even get full value. Horrible job all around by Lowe. Edit: Grammar

    3/2 GDT: Blackhawks @ Red Wings

    Yeah and we most likely won't have Zetterberg for our next 3 against the Preds.

    3/2 GDT: Blackhawks @ Red Wings

    Looking forward to seeing more of Filppula on the top line tonight. I liked what I saw on Tuesday.

    Ouch! Shades of Darian Hatcher on Jeremy Roenick from a few years ago. Thanks for the clip.

    Brian Burke: Trade Diary

    Absolutely - I don't know why Holland hasn't received more praise in the press for getting what he needed at such bargain prices when his peers had to give up the farm (literally).

    OMG, that finger claw thing is retarded.

    Chris Chelios today on Jim Rome is Burning

    Thanks for the heads up.

    Brian Burke: Trade Diary

    Thanks for posting; it's amazing to see what's going on in these GMs minds during the trade teadline process. -One thing stuck out to me that hasn't been mentioned. Burke offered a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd for Norstrom, and was turned down. If I'm a Kings fan, I want to know why. - Also, I guess Smyth's availability wasn't as secretive as believed.

    2/27 GDT: Red Wings @ Blackhawks

    It sure didn't help Lebda tonight!

    2/27 GDT: Red Wings @ Blackhawks

    I feel bad for anybody who has to play in Chicago. You could literally hear the players skates tonight it was so quiet. The only time you heard the crowd at all was when Wings fans were chanting, "lets go Red Wings."

    I forgot about Coffee as well. Unbelievable!

    2/27 GDT: Red Wings @ Blackhawks

    Is it just me or did the Hawks look entirely disinterested tonight? We have a bunch of games left against them too. Not exactly a great test for the playoffs; I'm pretty sure of AHL team could beat them.

    2/27 GDT: Red Wings @ Blackhawks

    Hasek looks great tonight!

    2/27 GDT: Red Wings @ Blackhawks

    Great play by Calder; I'm going to the "Official: I hate Kyle Calder thread" to gloat.

    Official: Ryan Smyth dealt to Islanders

    Wow you're taking this very well. I can't help but think that you guys are so used to this that it doesn't even register. If Zetterberg was traded in the same situation, there would be a revolt in this town.

    Hasek contract

    I believe the bonus is payed if the Wings make the finals, but I can't confirm that.

    OFFICIAL: Todd Bertuzzi a Red Wing

    I think they'll use this time as an audition. If he performs, they'll make a strong bid to re-sign him.

    Official: Ryan Smyth dealt to Islanders

    Has any fan base ever been as tourtured as Edmonton's? Every great player they've ever had has been traded before there prime was up (Gretzky, Messier, Kurri, Pronger, Weight, Guerin, and now Smyth). I

    Official: Ryan Smyth dealt to Islanders

    I guess this must mean he's going to be a free agent this offseason. All kinds of good news today!
