Hasek.....weak

we really cant blame that on the refs, or else we could say Chelios deserved 7 cross checking penalties too

looks like Chelios wanted to get someone off their game

hopefully Nashvillle...Living in Calgary its never fun when your time has to face them

I finally get to see Mac Back!!! Wings will play great tonight!!! Its nice to see Homer, Stuart, Draper, and Sammy all be ready for game 1!

Yes we did. We handled the flames and the sharks, and if it werent for 2 lucky breaks for the ducks in game 5, we would have been the team up 3-2 going to the pond, but it wasnt due to lack of physical play.

I don't want Huds scratched, thats not my arguement. I just do not agree of him being on the 2nd line. You can see the kids confidence is not there. You even watch an interview of him now and he doesn't smile no more. My case is just not having him over Cleary, that doesn't work for me.

If lids doesn't win it then we can officialy say the NHL is rigged

joke but serouisly...

Whats even more insane is that the Wings are still in first Props to wings!!!

Washington Capitals... Mark my words

Good for the Hawks... They don't get much good news considering the cupless drought has gone on forever

I do agree, Huds is a tough kid but if he isn't producing now, what makes you think he will in the playoffs, it is much harder then 1 goal in 33 games....i have to go with cleary over that, considering thats all I want.

Last year we proved we were, and this year we will do it again

every thread i see now i dont believe anymore

I can't believe i feel for this after seeing Matts

God Almighty nicely done, I was about to cry

tommorow is gonna be a thrilling day Nashville, Vancouver, Calgary, Colorado, and Edmonton are all battling!

I said not right now Im not a Huds hater, I actually enjoy him, but in the playoffs you get banged up, and so i would rather see Cleary who can handle the beating more then Huds can. Im scared that Huds will dissapear in the playoffs because of his size, the guy is gonna get punished like crazy. With Cleary, he can handle the body, he is a gritty player and last years playoffs proved what he is capable of doing, the guy can fight back. All im saying is I think Cleary would do better on the 2nd rather then Huds, and I do understand with the spreading the scoring lines, I just don't see Huds performing enough to be a 2nd liner in the playoffs, thats all. To me the little guy would do better with the reduced ice time, I mean he showed he was good with that last season.

too true, Franz siezed his oppurtunity and he isn't showing any signs of slowing down. I love Holms, but with him being out for soo long and leaving with a cold streak, it only makes sense in my eyes to keep Franz on the first line and bump Holms to the 2nd. Holms should always be on the PP 1 unit as he is the best in front of the net, but Franzen offers more of a all around talent

good point, but Huds needs to show he deserves beings the 2nd line LW, and right now he isn't. He has gotten his chances with all the injuries. Poor guy, the puck just aint going in for him.

I dont know loyd , the french are assholes -Harry from dumb & dumber

Beautiful!!!! I didn't think sportsnet had it in them to write such an amazing article like tha well done

Mcguire said the same thing a month ago, he is just trying to stay by his word people who live in america, you really don't know how much of an idiot the guy is on TSN I truly hate him, his sense in hockey is s***...Im shocked NBC has him working for them, its embarrising

Franzen is just unstoppable! I understand he owes much of his success to Z-Dawg and Dats but this guy has soo much more confidence now I don't love the idea of having Dats and Z-Dawg split, but with players like Holms and Franz, it would be the smarter way to go
