Detroit # 1 Fan

He turned at the last second, and that's 5 minutes? Is that how boarding works this season? I am gonna be doing alot of bitching about that s*** this season

Niklas Kronwall-Brad Stuart Brendan Smith-Mike Commodore Garnet Exelby-Logan Pyett Holy keep your head up.

What a game today. Stafford continues to impress and the defence managed to get turnovers and timely stops when we needed it. Keep it going boys

I'm expecting 5 fights out of Hudler this year after this information. Brian Gionta, Martin St Louis, Nathan Gerbe, Steve Sullivan, and Daniel Briere look the f*** out

I love those pairings, other then Kindl GTFO, Commys gonna play.

That is fantastic. I'll tell you right now, if we had Beast in his prime on the defence this past playoffs no way San Jose beats us. Anyone who read Mark Howes interview would realize the impact Brad had on hockey as a player. Sure I didn't believe he was the greatest coach out there, but he was on his way to showing us all whether or not Beast was a worthy HC. Now, he won't ever get the chance. Still late in the night, into the morning, I feel just awful. These were wonderful men living there dreams of playing hockey for profession and now we have to mourn there loses for the rest of the season and beyond. I know one thing, the Red Wings are gonna be pretty goddamn motivated for the upcoming season. The last time a tragedy struck this team so close to the heart.. well we all know the final result the June that followed.

Heard it on the way to work this morning and just couldn't believe it. Still in shock, RIP Brad and Rusty, and all those who lost there lives today. My thoughts and prayers are with all the families.

Wasn't a fan of the logo, but the away jerseys are actually very nice.

If I had worked on my crossovers more , and if I didn't have concussion problems in midget.

Hahahah, that is gold.

The guy loved the game, and Matt Cooke took that away from him. Savvy was one of my favorite players and I hope he is able to overcome this somehow, someway and get back to the game even though it's a long shot. Shawn Thornton needs to take Matt Cooke and end his goddamn career before he takes another good guy from the game.

If we wanted a gritty, yet not tough in the least, 4th line center I would've rather Drapes stick around. But if it gets Hudler out, heck why not

Todd Bertuzzi-Robert Lang-Dan Cleary Yes it's funny, but they were great whenever they were together in the 07 playoffs Also who could forget Deveraux-Datsyuk-Hull

Yzerman, Lang, Zetterberg, and Maltby were great that series. Too bad Stevie was banged up and Legace was such a sieve, who knows if Osgood were healthy we could've gone deep that year. The only good game the whole series:

Great news. Training with big Gary helped turn Stamkos into the star he is, hopefully he rubs off on Mccollum and Smith.

Rather see Brunnstorm make it, at least he still has a bit of potential. Conner is a fast journeyman.

Hahaha, definately

After reading Bradleys comments, I have to believe that Alex Semin probably doesn't care about what Bradley thinks either!

I'm pretty sure yes he was as well, but opted for the starter position in Washington instead of the backup here.

Fleischmann, Upshall, Theodore and Mike Smith. Along with those mentioned in the opening post, I would've loved Scottie Upshall but I'm ok with the rest going elsewhere.

Zetterberg and Datsyuk were nobodies when they were drafted, now they are stars. Wings have have an extremely low prospect depth? Hahaha, ya ok. We'll see in 2-4 years what nobodies Detroit drafted are stars in the league at that time. Also Kronwall for Hemsky would be such a disgustingly awful steal for Edmonton and this dumb dumb says we'd need to throw in a pick I can't blame him though, not like this bozo would watch the playoffs since Edmonton hasn't been close since 06.

Commodore will be an everygame defenceman, 20 points and 10 fights or so. Helm scores 20 goals. Kronwall gets a Norris nomination if he stays healthy (now thats bold!)

Unreal. Miss ya Malts, what a warrior.

Never realized how cheeky this guy was: "Manitoba doesn’t scare me. I wasn’t born in Africa afterall." "For example, the Flyers are more like an army where you need to fight." Good luck Zherdev, after reading that I hope you find an NHL team to give you work.

64 would've been funny, but I'm glad he's going with 22.
