Holland seemed to be at a loss for words when Ken asked him about why he didn't pick up a scorer. heh bet he's one of those guys that would fight you to death for a penny on the ground and gives recycled gifts on Xmas.

Per DetNews: http://www.detnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/artic.../802260363/1128 With the NHL trade deadline today at 3 p.m., the Wings are hoping to add a goal-scorer and a solid defenseman in what could be busy day throughout the NHL. "There will be some moves," general manager Ken Holland said. "I hear enough rumors, and talking to enough people, there will be moves." The Wings expect to participate. *edit* Now that I read it again, I think I took what he said out of context. I believe he meant there will be moves all around the NHL, not with the Wings in particular. Lame.....got me excited for a second. Still, interesting read.

I wasn't pairing them, though i could see how you would think so. i meant that Markov OR Schneider and Lang OR Bertuzzi, not pairing.

Feds, Fedetenko, Stoll......we had the assets to acquire them.

gotta disagree. Markov/Schneider > Stuart Lang/Bertuzzi > um.....what forward did we acquire...Drake?

Yep, and to add to that, we have ONE line tha is scoring. We desperately needed another scoring forward, and the fact that we had $5 million of cap space and that Holland SPECIFICALLY said in the off-season he saved room for a scorer at the deadline. He didn't pull the trigger...

hitting the radio guys

lol, "we can never have enough defensemen." That says it all. Moron

haha?

oh yea, that I agree with. Thought you meant top 4 in the league....heh.

top four?? come on now...

FU*K you holland....seriously. I'm not usually this immature.......but im honestly pissed right now.

wish i had your optimism.

haha, already a Stuart screen name.

oh i can't wait to hear this......AND the fans.....

my thoughts EXACTLY completely wasted cap space...

Still wondering where Nagy and Lang went. They both were confirmed to be traded.

you know what I'm really surprised at? Boston didn't pick up any offense. They have solid D and could have really used some forwards. Surprised they stayed quiet.

I can't wait to hear Holland's explanation/excuse on why he didn't pick up what we needed.

hehe. see my post above yours.

I consider this worse than the year of Cory Cross. We highly needed a scorer. how the hell could he over look this?!?!? Wasn't picking up a top 6 forward at the deadline Holland's excuse for not picking up one in the off-season!? I just dont get it.

o man did we f*** up.

they're done...

you guys can praise Holland all you want. The fact is, we NEEDED a scorer.

while Stuart is a solid acquisition, I believe a 2nd line scorer should have been the number 1 priority. With that in mind, Holland did not succeed. To me, grade = D
