I still say zubrus will be a wing when the smoke clears

Todd White sings w/ atlanta 2.25 for 4 yrs

How about zubrus ending up here?? 6'4, 225 power forward w/ soft hands

all i have to say is if we don't re-sign schneider or markov, we better be signing a big name for our second line that will put the puck in the net almost every game... we'll need the offence.... if we cant get either of those two guys at the right price, we're not getting anyone who will come close to filling their roles for what holland can afford to dish out

do you think the finishing touches on signing datsyuk have anything to do with bertuzzi's absence last night?

left the game with a neck sprain... announcers said he would not return....

Does anyone know where i can get a collection of Probert's fights?

How about this: Zetterberg Datsyuk Holmstrom Calder Franzen Bertuzzi Cleary Draper Maltby Hudler Filppula Samuelsson BENCH LANG UNTIL HE STOPS PLAYING DEPRESSING HOCKEY AND GETS OFF HIS LAZY ASS... not realistic but i wish

Okay... lets look at it this way: Phoenix--> a little more ice time, warm weather. Detroit--> playoffs, cup contenders does that not say enough?

Why wouldn't he? With the decreasing need for a tough guy in the league, his job would very well be guaranteed in Detroit, and would create the room needed on the third or fourth lines to make them more effective. Furthermore, there has been alot of talk about team toughness, and how Detroit won't get it by adding one or two guys at the deadline. I only partially agree. I really don't think we need to dump half the team here, but the physical presence is noticably lakcking. Take out the cheap hits, cross-checks, slashes, etc., and maybe our guys start sticking up for one another and throwing the body around more. How to do that? Add a heavywheight. A guy like Laraque will put a stop to most of the cheap stuff and let the wings develop team toughness. I'm afraid that if we don't aquire someone soon, we could be looking at the loss of some serious talent. Just a thought.
