    Trade deadline fast approaching - who should we target?

    With Z, Weiss and Pav out, if we expect to make the playoffs we need help up front as well as the back end. If Kenny sits on his hands this year, with cap space and assets aplenty, we could miss the dance. You can't go into games with your top 3 centers Andersson, Helm, Sheahan. Yes the injuries have been insane, react to those and make a positive move. Youth is great, but we have a ton of prospects and we all know which ones are the untouchables.

    Injury Updates

    Weiss was supposed to be good to go after the Olympics they said, Pavs knee injury wasn't bad enough to keep him out of a game they said. Joakim Andersson, who shouldn't even be in the line-up, is centering the top line. That's ******* insanity. This season is a disaster.

    Trade deadline fast approaching - who should we target?

    With everyone talking about Vancouver, how has Kevin Bieksa's name not made the rounds? Top 4 defenceman with a decent contract (4.6per/3yrs) he's tough as nails and can move the puck, PK/PP, and he's a RH shot. I'd rather give up assets for him over Edler, probably won't move but I'm really surprised his name hasn't been out there.

    Was thinking about a top prospect we might actually move and his name popped into my head without even seeing those stats. Could be worthwhile, throw in a few picks and maybe a guy like Ferraro and we may have a package good enough to grab a top 4 D or top 6 forward. Even though I doubt Kenny makes any moves because it's not his style anymore, this year more then ever he has the flexibility to based on assets, cap room and need.

    Naming the New Arena

    Gordie Howe Arena. Take the statue from inside the Joe and place it outside. Probably won't be a hockey player, but if it were no better choice then Mr Hockey.

    The proposed Pitt/Kesler deal for those who haven't seen is Sutter, Depres, a 1st and a 3rd. Not sure if Gillis is going to get better then that, but I'm sure he'll take it right to deadline day. Most of the hockey guys seem to think Detroit is still in on him, so we'll see.

    Ryan Miller, Steve Ott traded to St. Louis Blues

    Chris Nichols ‏@NicholsOnHockey 1m OFFICIAL: Miller, Ott from #Sabres for Halak, Stewart, Carrier, a first-round draft pick in 2015 and a third-round draft pick in 2016. I hate the Blues, but boy. They just became a serious threat for the Cup.

    Looks like Ott isn't coming to Detroit. The rumors as per Bob McKenzie are Ott and Miller will be heading to St. Louis shortly. Thank god we're not in the West anymore.

    2/27 GDT : Red Wings 6 at Senators 1, Franzen w/Hat Trick

    Great win. Way to grab 4 points boys, 2 near perfect games right after the break. Rest up and bring it again on the 4th.

    When he competes no one complains. Because at the end of the day, a fast skating, physical 6'3 winger with a lethal shot sounds great. The problem in years past is Franzen would glide most nights and depend on his shot alone, when he's been healthy this year he's been the Mule of 06-09. Great for us, we need him to make the playoffs.

    Philly losing, Columbus losing, Toronto losing, Carolina losing. If Montreal and the Rangers lose too, what a night we could have before 5 days off.

    Nick Kypreos and a few Vancouver beat guys seem to think were in on Kesler. Please god no, will cost too many pieces and that guy is an absolute puke.
