    Official: Roberts traded to Pittsburgh

    I think they needed some veteran leadership most. Aside from Reechi everyone on the Pens is still waiting for puberty. That's probably exactly why he did it!

    That's some generous use of the word "analysis".

    NY Speculation: Trade Jagr?

    Man, I'd so leave a heap of Liljas in the Take-a-Penny-Leave-a-Penny jar. Edit: Dang Rabie totally pwned me Still I like the visual aspect of mine.

    Tell them we'll give them Lang AND Williams as well as a conditional 1st rounder if he looks cool in the winged wheel.

    Official: Blues trade Tkachuk to Thrashers

    True, I'm actually not a hater of the Thrashers- I think they're a pretty good young club that's fun to watch. Please don't kill me guys!

    For a minute there..

    I wish I pray that he at least manages to come back long enough to retire a Wing... maybe he'd convince his last team to trade him for almost nothing just so he could retire right away? What kind of precedents for that are there?

    Wings have made an Offer for Jason Blake

    Well not when you factor in market and dollar inflation Agreed- he wants to retire a Wing and I hope he does! Visions of a place where footwear literally grows on trees?

    Robert Lang

    Ouch- that's a rough call on the waterboy, watch it again to make sure: The Waterboy!

    Robert Lang

    Like maybe he suffers from a broken heart and only the loving prose of HoH can heal his wounded bloodpump? *sniff* TAKE HIM BACK HOH! He's standing under your window holding a boombox over his head that's playing a sweet, sweet love ballad. Ahh, Crymson- he's Detroit's Number 1 Fan for Christ's sake! Give him a break- he's at least worked his ass off to obtain his number 1 status.

    2/24 GDT: Red Wings @ Predators

    I know... I saw a rope this morning and started having Legacy feelings

    Craig Rivet to San Jose

    WHAT? I've heard him refered to as a Lids that doesn't score or have a respectible +/-. That's just what we need on this team!

    Yeah, let's get another Lang because soft=bad, tough=good.

    Oilers Upset over Kronwall Hit

    We'd all be saying the exact same thing if the tables were turned (ala williams). He's a course bastard file.

    To be honest all the prices so far have been insulting. But it's a buyer's market for formally s***ty teams.

    Excellent post dude- you make a great point and present it with excellent support. I wish there were more posters like you

    Wings making progress with Datsyuk

    *sob* Why won't people use there brains here? Just because a player's failed to meet playoff expectations two years in a row doesn't mean they'll slup forever. Moreover, the regular season is the lions share of games people- and Dats has a HUGE impact on those games. Does playoff performance matter? Of course! But it takes wins to get to the playoffs too.

    Official: Blues trade Tkachuk to Thrashers

    Yeah, Forsberg's a clutch player that it could be argued is worth overpaying for in Nashville's situation (where winning a cup could be integral to the franchise staying where it is and the jackass owner stopping his whining). But Tkachuk is no Forsberg...

    Official: Blues trade Tkachuk to Thrashers

    Nah- it's obviously an effect and looks cool to me. I think it's a fairly unique avatar As to this event... well yeah, not a good situation. Guerin is going to go for a whole bag of magic beans and that's something we can't afford to trade for a single playoff run.

    HNIC: Satellite Hotstove, Trade deadline talk

    Lids + Nord ? Sweeeeeettttt. Maybe LA would make that trade if only for Snied's veteran leadership and scoring?

    More stupidity from the NHL.

    Yeppers. And there are plenty of American hockey fans! Plenty, just not enough

    2/24 GDT: Red Wings @ Predators

    Oh look at me, my name is Tazzer and I'm all about raining on Marcus' parade . No wait, the refs did that at the end of the first, didn't they?

    2/24 GDT: Red Wings @ Predators

    Well to be fair Crymson- it's not like Holland would derive any pleasure from his team winning the cup. Nay, I'm sure his boss would much rather he keeps up a veneer of President's Trophies and leave the cup to other teams. Yeah alienanxiety's logic is flawless.

    2/24 GDT: Red Wings @ Predators

    God DAMN IT! I know this is going to be a popular sentiment, but if the refs hadn't stolen that first goal from us the game would've been ours. DAMN IT! And ******-bag had to score the GWG? DAMN IT! Arrrgggghhhhh. At least our getting to OT means this win didn't put them above us in the standings. Still- can we at least agree that my suggestion of Lethal Weapon E is brilliant? OR would you rather Lethal Weapon Z (which is also mine )?

    2/24 GDT: Red Wings @ Predators

    Hahaha- I guess my last post was a moot point. Silly slow updating on CBS sportsline Wow, I know people rarely say this- but our first line is absolutely lethal. Infact- I say we start calling them Lethal Weapon E. The E rhymes with 3 AND stands for Euro. Yeah! Let's adopt that? Please?
