    Legwand to Detroit for Eaves, Jarnkrok + cond 3rd/2nd

    Skeletor approves of Calle and thinks he'll probably see NHL ice this season. Where is this comparison to Z coming from? http://www.tennessean.com/article/20140317/SPORTS02/303170065/Jarnkrok-off-blazing-start-Predators-affiliate

    Seeing it in order, in print, really spells out what a terrible couple of years Helm has had. http://www.mlive.com/redwings/index.ssf/2014/03/red_wings_darren_helm_expects.html

    Who will have a better career as a Red Wing: Weiss or Legwand?

    Who? Oh, THIS guy - Filppula

    UFA/RFA Re-Signing, What Does Everyone Get?

    I don't know where the first page of this thread gets the idea that Alfie is done after this season. If he doesn't retire (seems unlikely since he's playing well and apparently having fun), both he and DRW want to have him here next year. http://www.thedetroitsportssite.com/2014/03/07/detroit-red-wings-rumors-daniel-alfredsson-would-like-to-come-back-if-he-keeps-playing/42160

    21 games to make it 23 years

    Jarnkrok is outside of that realm, as he's: 1) not a roster player, 2) not a regular call up player and 3) moving ONE player is not selling the farm like Babcock was eluding to.

    FWIW, the Wings aren't among the top 5 losers in this year's deadline trades according to the Hockey News. http://www.thehockeynews.com/blog/five-winners-and-five-losers-of-the-2014-nhl-trade-deadline/
  15. Is a trade brewing?? It wouldn't seem that the roster space was available for all these guys. Official Detroit Red Wings UPDATE: The ‪#‎RedWings‬ have called up Cory Emmerton, Riley Sheahan, Teemu Pulkkinen, and Adam Almquist from the Grand Rapids Griffins.

    NHL players will not participate in 2018 Olympics (Mod Post #99)

    Well, a statistician has weighed in.. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/02/25/sports/hockey/study-says-top-nhl-teams-may-decline-after-sochi.html The study says that the difference of goals per game / per player that went to the Olympics is 9-one-hundredths (0.088). I dunno, I leave it to you to make your own decisions, but it seems random and susceptible to anomalies. Lies, damned lies and statistics. - Benjamin Disreali

    OYO Sports Toys: Red Wings

    Easy there, tiger. The toymakers obviously know something about Glendening's future since when you mouse over his figurine's link is says "Henrik_Zetterberg2." More importantly, who's the black guy with the beard?

    Call ups.. Sheahan, Emmerton, Pulkkinen and Almquist

    Of course his house was connected first, how else was he supposed to post horseback riding, topless selfies? (ok, not really a selfie)

    Says who? That's a KH body double. He's sent to do public appearances in scary places so that the real KH is never in danger. Either that or Russia has internet - maybe even 56k dialup access. ROL - Russia OnLine.

    Call ups.. Sheahan, Emmerton, Pulkkinen and Almquist

    I don't know why they would so it, so I take the public statement at face value. However, I'm not a Hockey GM either. Who's to say that there is not a super sneaky secret plan at work? haha /tinfoil mode OFF

    No, but you certainly can get guys into trade-able shape by the end of the hiatus, which is the 23rd - a scant 4 days away.

    That seems weird to me, but who knows.
