Stamkos to Detroit e4, heard it will be a favor from Yzerman to Holland for all the money we paid him in Detroit... Haha

Soooo basically he wants to be a penguin, but Shero is not offering him near enough. Worries me that we are like 1.5 million more with our offer...

Not 100% true.... Couldn't that just be another form of sexting...?

What... His dad texted me saying Pittsburgh... But I also got a text from Jagrs neighbors sister in laws brother that he was the one who created the flyers twitter fake because it really is the truth but no one would believe him...

Won't believe anything until Jagr says it. Otherwise why the heck wouldn't they announce it or Detroit say they are out of the running... If the Pens know he is signing there, then the Wings know he isnt and there wouldn't even be this dumb Jagr watch... Plus the tribune has been saying this stuff for days now and obviously there wasn't even a real offer on the table. Its a hometown source.

sorry.... This picture will have to resurface if we have a retro jersey night and we were the old candy cane looking jerseys haha

Don't forget... He was spotted boarding a private jet for pitt at JFK, but supposedly never landed and missed his flight lol what the he'll.... Maybe we should sign him... He seems to still have a ton of tricks up his sleeve... And is slipping the media and evading and answer like it's his job.. Imagine him slipping and evading like that in the corners lol

I really hope we didn't offer him 4 million. LGW.com will have a meltdown if that's the case.

Bitter much. "Hey Chara Congrats on winning the Stanley Cup, now can you come to Montreal so we can try screwing up your life with questioning and possible assault charges"?

Let him go to Pitt. I would have liked the extra fire power on the Wings but if he really wants to go back to Pittsburgh that bad then let him. I think he could have given us a boost but I rather shore up the D and just bring another guy in. Yes it will cost a little more but it could be someone we could keep around. Not going to lie. I hope he flops in Pittsburgh, and that he butts heads with Crosby and Malkin... I just don't like the Pens simple as that haha Wouldn't mind seeing Crosby get hurt again and Jagr have to carry a big load for the team like he was asking not to do.

OKAY I never do a line thread but I had an idea for our D... its a little bit more of a stretch but I think Ehrhoff and Wiz would be an amazing two to pick up but would be a very tough task, I like... DEFENSEMEN Nicklas Lidstrom ($6.200m) / Brad Stuart ($3.750m) Niklas Kronwall ($3.000m) / Jakub Kindl ($0.883m) Cam Barker ($2.500m) / James Wisniewski ($5.000m) Jonathan Ericsson (or whoever)($2.500m) I like that D a lot and I think 2.5 is a lot for Barker and I think he could be had for less. This leaves Kindl, Barker, and Big Rig, rotating for the bottom 3 (5,6,7) Also gives us some money for the offense which I know it played very well last year. A little more offense could never hurt. DEFENSEMEN Nicklas Lidstrom ($6.200m) / Brad Stuart ($3.750m) Niklas Kronwall ($3.000m) / Jakub Kindl ($0.883m) Christian Ehrhoff ($5.250m) / James Wisniewski ($5.000m) Barker(or whoever)($2.000m) This is my Dream defense....

Datsyuk also used to vanish in the playoffs, but then took his game to another level. I would hope that a guy like Datsyuk could motivate a guy like Semin. Then at the same time if Ovie can't get you going I just don't know if it's possible.

Hopefully this makes Semin even more expendable.... I would LOVE to see his crazy wrister in detroit

I for one hope it isn't Quebec... My reason being is right now it looks like with the new realignment we will be heading to the East as the league could possibly run 16 teams in the East and 14 in the west. If the Yotes move to Quebec that could throw a wrench into the works because no way the league does 17 in the east and 13 in the west. I don't know how the league could place both Detroit and Columbus in the east if Phoenix ends up in Quebec. crash

I know a lot of people try to stay away from eBay and me being a huge Fedorov fan my self I had to voice my opinion. If you are patient and search right you might be able to find a blank authentic or a Fedorov authentic Nike jersey. The reason I say Nike is because those were the jerseys during the 1997, 1998 cup years. I have a shanahan Nike jersey that has the 1998 Stanley cup patch and the vksm believe patch on the shoulder. I got the jersey from eBay for 70 dollars and added the patches my self. The hardest thing is finding the right size but I don't think I have ever found a fake Nike jersey cause all the fakes are Reebok. The Nike jersey is the old heavy weight jersey so it is personal preference of my. if you prefer the heavy old jerseys or the new style. I personally love the heavy older jerseys and I'm not a fan of the current reeboks. Also... Just saw your post asking about sportsk.com. Everyone here is a really really big fan of sportsk and it's highly recommended around here. They do Red Wings jerseys the right way. Crash

I undestand the chances are very slim, but would you rather him get a contract offered to him by us so LA doesn't get him for so much of a steal? Best case scenario, we get him. Worst case he has to sign for more in LA. Just dont offer more then 7.8 and if we get him we only give up 2nd round picks and with Doughty in our line up I don't see us Pick in the top 5 in the next 2 season. That is when the two first rounders would occur. With Datsyuk, Zetterberg Lidstrom, Doughty, Franzen. We wont be getting Lottery Picks. If we don't get Dougthy we will have our 25-30th picks and no harm no foul. crash

well there is a catch... As long as our offer is below 7.8 million then we would give up only 2 1st round picks and a 2nd and a 3rd. Yes that is a still a steep price but I highly doubt we draft a Doughty character with the 3rd and 2nd and if we stay competitive our 1st round picks will be 25 and later. This isn't like the leafs giving up a the picks and getting the 2nd overall pick. I say we offer him around 7 and either jack the price up on LA or we get him and he is our Lidstrom replacement 1 year ahead of time. Lidstrom, Doughty, Kronwall, Stuart as our top 4. That would be AMAZING!!!

Sooo I have read a lot of people saying Marchenko was the best defensive player in this years draft. I know nothing about him or how good he is, but in a draft that involved larsson, Hamilton, and a couple others I don't know how to take those comments. Crash

Where is all this money coming from? Richards, talk about Gagne, and resigning Doughty.... Please bring Doughty to Detroit

Where are you hearing this?

Maybe I'm wrong but when I first read the twitter report i thought it said. " Ottawa looking for a 2nd round for Wisniewski +" im assuming the plus mesnt more would be coming in return for the 2nd probably depending where it is. Also our last pick in the second round is a lot different the the 35th pick. I don't have a link maybe some one could help but a 2nd for wiz and a pick in return I could def do. To get an edge on everyone else and keep his cap hit lower. DailyCanadiens Your Canadiens #Habs Pierre Gauthier trying to acquire a 2nd rounder, shopping the rights to James Wisniewski +, per MA Godin.

well looks like were trading down... smart move I think
