    Cheerleaders for Canadian NHL team a first

    I don't mind the ice girls. If you're at the arena, it gives you something to do during tv time outs. If you're at home, you probably won't even see them for more than a minute or two during the whole game. Also, if it gets the crowd hyped up in the arena, where is the harm?

    "Why I hate this obnoxious hockey team"

    Someone took the time to write a rebuttal. http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/news;_ylt=AlRL6Ym9hfmOYGo9dMPNj3GcvMJ_?slug=ac-6993778 IMHO, it's about as poorly written as hers.

    Request... 2010-11 Calendar for Outlook

    I like how they update the events after the games are over to reflect the scores. Also, if any one has a Blackberry, this will work as well. You just have to install GSync for Blackberry. Android phones of course work since they are gmail calendar native.

    Sync your outlook with a google calendar and you can get the Wings add in for the google calendar.

    The NHL announces "Homer" rule for WIngs - WTF?

    That blog was not funny.

    Poor Mike Danton

    OK, so Danton gets sent to prison for attempting to hire a hitman to kill his agent. Then the agent gets caught illegally using Danton's credit cards while he's in prison. Now, it turns out that Danton's lawyer WASN'T EVEN REALLY A LAWYER!!!

    Why are you advocating to send Abdelkader to Toronto?

    Babcock's Contract Extension

    He'll sign through 2015 and then leave. OK, probably not, but in the article from the other thread he did say that he recommends quitting your job every 10 years and doing something else.

    #DanEllisProblems

    Oh, the self-righteous indignation! You do realize that myself and the other folks from down south (Tennessee and beyond) have to suffer through all the redneck/hillbilly nonsense EVERY time that the Wings play in Nashville, right? So, this whole "he's picking on Detroit!", rings very hollow.

    New numbers for a couple of Wings

    They both start with "K"?

    New numbers for a couple of Wings

    As opposed to the Canadian Coney Island? No. The rafters of the 'Little Caesars Center' - the new downtown Detroit rink for the Wings.

    New numbers for a couple of Wings

    How in the hell is #22 going to be used? It was destined for the rafters!!! Seriously, neat article. Side note - Gonna be weird to see someone in Fischer's number. I'm not saying that #2 needed to be retired, I'm just saying that once Smith hits the big leagues, it's gonna take a couple dozen games to adjust to it.

    Where will Vokoun play next season?

    Ditto this IF Jimmy didn't work out for some reason. Always respected Vokoun when he was in Nashville.

    Red wings Photos

    Just so everyone knows - this isn't "Red Wings 1". The Tigers and Wings fly a modified DC-9. The jet pictured here is a Tupolev (Russian bird), not a DC-9. Here's a link to a picture of Red Wing 1. http://www.airliners.net/photo/Detroit-Red-Wings-Tigers/McDonnell-Douglas-DC-9-51/1701579/M/

    Here's the video that's mentioned in the article. I can't believe people got so uptight about this.

    Top 10 Centers as ranked by Versus

    I didn't see this anywhere, so if it is - then I searched the wrong terms.. One of Versus' correspondents put out a Top 10 Centers list. Enjoy. Link

    Goal Celebration

    WHAT THE HELL?? I think at the 1:30 mark, 2 guys run in, separately, and jiggle a player's "business". And people think Hudler's "cluck" is weird. He's got nothing on that.

    I'm Boycotting the Winter Classic...

    I read it.. For the record, I'll probably watch it but not as intently as I would if the Wings were in it. When the Wings were in it, we made a whole day of it at my house - grilling out, etc etc.

    I'm Boycotting the Winter Classic...

    I wonder how many of the "Boycott the WC" people would still be saying boycott if it were the Wings getting a second shot.

    Is it too soon to worry about another NHL lockout?

    Which in a free market system will drive their prices down. Right now the KHL overpays NHL players because there are so few that go. Dump a bunch of mid-to-upper level NHLers on the free market and the prices drop for most of them. There will still be the few that get crazy money because they are crazy good, but for most the price would drop simply because of an abundance of talent to go around.. Surely the players and their agents could see that.
