    It really sucks! Unfortunately for me, it's a distance of about 80 km. At first I thought I was lucky cause on the monitor was written that the train, I originally wanted to take, would leave the station as scheduled. When I was already sitting in the train they made the announcement that they couldn't find any train driver.

    Because the train drivers were on strike here in Germany, I was stuck for one and a half hour on the train station today, until there was a train going in the right direction.

    Sorry about your cat, Amber. My grandma's cat was run over too. It is unbelievable how many animals are run over. In the summer you usually see a lot of killed hedgehogs on the streets here.

    I have never eaten pie that contained grapes. I didn't know that it was possible to make pie from them. I have to do some homework, but I don't want to do it.

    They are okay looking. I'm just happy that they no longer have those ugly yellow ones.

    Roenick not retiring.......yet

    If it's just for the dancing, maybe the Wings can sign him as a cheerleader. Would be at least more entertaining than the ice girls some teams have. I'm not surprised that he isn't retiring. I expected him to continue playing so that he can reach the 500 goals.

    Fire On Ice

    The slogan sucks. When I read it, the first thought that crossed my mind was that it sounds like a musical.

    Z: I want to spend my career in Detroit

    Sorry to dig out this thread. But I found a translated version of the Expressen article in the Freep, and thought some are perhaps interested. http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article...651/1053/SPORTS Zetterberg: I'd stay with Red Wings for entire career July 15, 2007 About the only things that get Red Wings forward Henrik Zetterberg down are rainy days and paparazzi. In an interview this month with Expressen, a newspaper in his native Sweden, a reporter and photographer caught up with Zetterberg, who spends the off-season at his home in Alnön, Sundsvall. Zetterberg is a popular figure in Sweden, where he is considered to be the heir to Peter Forsberg. But it isn't just Zetterberg's hockey skills that fascinate, it's also who he's dating (Swedish TV personality Emma Andersson) and his disheveled looks (he's described in the story as a guy who "looks like he has stepped out of a beer commercial"). It turns out Zetterberg, known in Sweden as Zäta, wields quite a bit of star power in his hometown. The article tells of how Zetterberg and Andersson walked into a restaurant and immediately were seated at a coveted outdoor table (the reporter, there separately, had been told no such tables were available). On top of that, they were served their food before patrons who had been there longer. Zetterberg deftly deflected several questions about his girlfriend of nearly a year, and he flat-out refused to let the photographer take pictures of him and Andersson. Zetterberg did reveal that Andersson will be moving in with him when he returns to his suburban Detroit home in the fall, prompting the reporter to ask whether there are any mini-Zs on the way. The answer: no future draft picks coming just yet. But if they do arrive, he says, they'll likely be born in the States. "As long as Detroit is willing," he says, "I'll sign for the rest of my career." That's hardly going to be a problem: The Wings see Zetterberg as the next captain after Nicklas Lidstrom, and they'll work on signing him to an extension next summer, the earliest time permitted under the collective bargaining agreement. However, Zetterberg, 26, explained that "I'm not thinking of becoming the new Chris Chelios," referring to his Wings teammate who will turn 46 during the upcoming season. Zetterberg estimates he'll play until he's 35 and again said "preferably in Detroit." As for the two injuries that nagged him last season, Zetterberg said the pain that hampered his left wrist for years is gone and that his back (spasms sidelined him the last 19 games of the regular season) "feels much, much better." Finally, Zetterberg revealed his likes and dislikes. On what he misses while in Detroit: "Sibylla," a beloved chain of hot dog/hamburger stands in Sweden. On what he loves: "The freedom of the sea on a summer day." On what he hates: "Rainy summer days."

    Who will be the WORST NHL team this season?

    Phoenix, Edmonton, Florida and Washington all have the chance to be the worst.

    Z: I want to spend my career in Detroit

    I don't know a lot about his background. I just know that his father used to play hockey for a team in the second league until he was 30.

    Z: I want to spend my career in Detroit

    In the blue box on the right side of the article he talks about his wrist and also about his back. Seems like his wrist isn't giving him trouble anymore. I have tried a translation of the interesting parts. Zata about... ...his wrist pain: I have had problems with the wrist for many years, but last winter I got help rom Kent Lindgren from Sundsvall. He stated that everything depended on that I had a lack of chemical substances(???)- so I began to eat some salt supplement. A couple of weeks later everything was fine. Totally fantastic. ...his back pain: That is a problem with a disc that was the reason that I missed the last 19 games of the regular season. I received pain killers during the play-offs. I have now relaxed and it feels much, much better. But I don't really know before fall when the hard practise begins.

    That would be awesome if it's true.

    Hudler to Russia?

    I would hate to see him go. But I guess it's understandable since Babcock didn't like him for some reason.
