  1. You do realize a number of names you point out as free agent acquisitions were in fact NOT free agent acquisitions? Calder, Cross, & Lang for example were acquired via trade & Miller was a waiver pick up.

    Also, as badly as Hatcher worked out a lot of teams at the time wanted him. We were thrilled when we signed him.


  2. I didn't expect to see LGW divided on these moves.

    After Filppula's play last playoffs I'm surprised so many people are pissed that he left. He was invisible and had a worse series against Chicago than Smith who was everybody's favorite whipping boy. Brunner kind of sucks to lose but I don't think he's anything special that we can't make up for.


  3. The insercurity and inferiority complex of some Wings fans is just mind blowing. ESPN, Wilbon and Kornheiser have never claimed to be NHL experts. Wilbon anchors their NBA coverage and has been doing so on a nightly basis since the start of the NBA playoffs. I'm guessing he's a bit overly tired and jetlagged. But here, it must mean he hates the Wings and knows nothing about them!!! Of course most here seemed to miss how much he praised the Wings and gave the Hawks little chance of coming back from the 3-1 deficit.

    FWIW for those who know nothing outside of the Red Wings, Jimmy Williams was a linebacker for the Detroit Lions (they are a professional football team) and there was also a second Jimmy Williams who played DB (defensive back) for Atlanta.

    Way to overreact, grats
