    Actually, it would be his heel in the crease since he's usually facing the shooter. Down at the ASPCA adopting dogs?

    Sounds a lot like you in your pirate phase.

    Indy Ice players

    Thx. I just saw GR in the bio when I clicked on his name. Don't really follow the Griffs at all.

    Indy Ice players

    Current and former Wings to have played in Indy. Cleary, Hasek, Grimson, LaMothe and Wilkie. I think that's all of them. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Indi...lis_Ice_players Kip Miller gets a DIShonorable mention since he's NOT in Grand Rapids now and could NEVER potentially hit the Wings.

    Hossa a hero

    Nice story. Michael Vick's dogs would have chomped some neo-nazi asses. (I don't know.. some sort of dog fighting joke seemed appropriate.) _______________\\ Second joke: Too bad he can't save his brother from having to play for the Thrashers... *tap tap* Is this thing on?

    Forsberg vs. Fedorov

    QFT. I loved Sergei back in the day, but his time has passed. Never liked Penis Foreskin and I never will. Double entendre not intended.

    Really strange but related topic from the Indianapolis Ice wiki. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indianapolis_Ice Sure enough, Indy Ice from '89 - '91. - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominik_Hasek Yeah, I was changing my post when you posted.

    Agreed, but it's not like a team put him in a Stanley Cup Finals game or anything. It was a marketing gimick for a minor league hockey team. Stuff like that happens all the time. The Indy Ice of the CHL put Manute Bol under contract. Yeah, the ex-NBA dude who's like 7 foot 7 +. He sat on the bench for a game and people showed up to see an 8 foot guy on skates. I really think the author was just desperate to include something hockey related for his article. It says TAINTED achievements. The article calls into question his "legacy" of 6 decades of hockey. edit: clarity and wrong basketball player

    Jimmy Howard

    I didn't see a thread related to this article - I apologize if there is one and I just missed it. Hopefully he plays well and finds his groove. I, for one, love the idea of drafting and grooming our own goalie versus trying to find one at outrageous free agent prices. One thing that does worry me is that after this season we have NO "seasoned" goaltender under contract. Even if Howard does make the grade and gets the call for 08/09 - we'd still need an experienced backup/starter.

    New preds Jersey

    We wandered over to Greektown and ate a late dinner and drank some beers. He got some ribbing since the Preds got beat that night but not really any abuse.

    Favourite Moment of the 06/07 Regular Season?

    Attending the home and home against Nashville. Extra special since we won both. Also, my first time ever inside the Joe.

    Wings add premium benefits plan for season ticket holders

    Nitpicking - what else is the internet for? from the article: Technically, I suppose we tied Buffalo w/ 113. However, they won the President's Trophy and therefore had the "highest points" total. < / nitpicking >

    Brian Rafalski = Larry Murphy?

    I was thinking the same thing. X is just like X from a dozen years ago!!!1!!!! Um, no he's not. They're individuals.

    My friend Shrek wearing the mustard when we did the home and home last season. He bought this the night before in Nashville just to wear it at the Joe. Fortunately for him, he's big enough not to get messed with.

    The REAL Sharks logo, not the "leaked" prototype

    Dr. Evil: You know, I have one simple request. And that is to have sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads! Now evidently my cycloptic colleague informs me that that cannot be done. Ah, would you remind me what I pay you people for, honestly? Throw me a bone here! What do we have? Number Two: Sea Bass. Dr. Evil: [pause] Right. Number Two: They're mutated sea bass. Dr. Evil: Are they ill tempered? Number Two: Absolutely. Dr. Evil: Oh well, that's a start. Nice, photoshop.

    Wings sign Drake for 1-year, $550K

    Uh, yeah, this guy uses ice skates and a stick.... That's all I know about his play for the 07/08 Wings until he hits the ice.

    Reports: 2nd outdoor game in the works

    Super, Wing fans sell out a 100K+ seat arena/field and still only 45K show up.. hehe.. Empty seats everywhere. This just in, people at home watching it on tv complain about lack of support.

    Shanahan re-signs with Rangers

    All those that are surprised take one step forward.. exactly. This was as done of a deal as Hasek coming back to us was. I'm very curious to see the $$$. I'm thinking he went for less than his $4M he got last year. I think he's worth the $4M, but I think the Rangers might be a little tight with the pocketbook seeing as their goaile still needs signing.
