    Babcock makes some cuts

    Magnusson didnt last long. Not too bad, Im glad Pyetts still around, the kids got a bright future.

    Tryouts around the NHL

    Yeah, I just saw on sportsnet he had some decent years with the Oil. Might not be that bad of an idea after all.

    Kronwall

    Enough with the stats already! They dont mean s*** all. Kronwalls problem is he's out of position alot, and makes terrible plays with the puck. Fans/fumbles on alot of open ice passes. I dont hate the guy, but being the leading shot blocker on the red wings doesnt count for much. I really hope this season, he stops playing stupid and plays more positionallly sound and smart hockey. He can keep on hitting as none of our defenceman hit, but he needs to be smart about it.

    Sopel... Batte?... 7th D? WTH

    Babcock is the coach, means that Sopel will probably be playing with Lidstrom. If not, he'll be playing with Kronwall. Win Win.

    He was injured for quite a while, and didnt get his scoring touch back till the playoffs, give the guy a break. NN, yeah we should change the "norris" to "Negative"

    Schneider and Bertuzzi make Ducks debut

    Too bad for Matty, hope he gets better! Bertuzzi looks really small in those new jerseys, wont intimadate anyone wearing those Todd.

    Fight for Roster Spots is on

    http://redwingscorner.blogspot.com/2007/09...pots-is-on.html Everything sounds good to me. Mcgrath is having a great camp, Downey is having a good camp. Sopels playing great. The bad part, is it sounds like Grigs isnt gonna make the team, its only the 2nd day, but I wish he was doing better. But, Go Downey and Sopel!

    2008 Trade Deadline

    I've wanted Ryder on the wings forever. This season however, is the one where it is most likely will get him. At the trade deadline hiss cap hit will be a million or less. He's exactly what we need, goal scoring winger. Dunno about Fedorov, hes not what we need. But for cheap, I'd consider him.

    Kronwall

    Hes overated alot. I dont like him alot, right now. I have a strong feeling this season he's gonna prove me wrong and start playing as well as he should be playing. And If he gets injured again this season, man, the kid will be done, he needs to have an injury free season to have sucess.

    Fight for Roster Spots is on

    I have a feeling Downey is going to make the team. Like the article says, Babs like size and fighting, and Downeys got size, and fights.

    Sharks Dubbed as Cup Favourites.

    Im not sure, but if Norton draws into San Jose's top 6, they would have the most nasty defence in the league.

    who? Grigerenko?

    2008 Trade Deadline

    He certainly helped on the size part. Not so much the points part though

    Notes from training camp day 2

    -- Aaron Downey was involved in two shoving matches ... one with Brad Ference and one with Tomas Kopecky Thats what I like to hear! I hope Downey makes the wings, I'll have the same first name as a Red Wing . I also like the sound of Sopel doing well, and Chelios scoring shootout goals.

    2008 Trade Deadline

    I'd love Pronger on the wings. Big , Tough D-man that clears the crease and gets 60+ points a season. Something we've been missing since we lost Vladdy. And it became worse when Fisch went down.

    2008 Trade Deadline

    Sundins stated 100 times, he's retiring a Maple Leaf.

    Yupp ... because Drapes 14 goals last year playing center was a fluke right? Same with Dano's 20?

    2008 Trade Deadline

    Micheal Ryder and Micheal Peca. Neither one will cost alot, and we have room for them. Oh, and John Erksine for some gritty depth. Henrik Zetterberg-Pavel Datsyuk-Tomas Holmstrom Jiri Hudler/Igor Grigerenko-Val Filpula-Micheal Ryder Dan Cleary-Johan Franzen-Kris Draper Kirk Maltby-Micheal Peca-Dallas Drake Nick Lidstrom-Brent Sopel Brian Rafalski-Niklas Kronwall Chris Chelios-Brett Lebda/John Erksine

    Is it Hoodlum's time to shine?

    And all all stars.

    Current lines made clear

    Two potential 20 goal scorers on his wing isnt good enough for ya? Plus, that line will be amazingly energetic.

    D Mac

    Whenever he played for The Flames last season, he fought and hit. Its all he can do anymore, I wouldnt say he's as good as he used to be, but better then Kopecky. Unless Kopecky actually learns from Maltby and Drake this season and changes, then he's no better then Mac imo.
