    Zednik's throat cut by teammate's skate

    It's a matter of moments with an injury like this, thank god he didn't hesitate but went straight for the bench. Good to hear that his condition is stable - he'll be in my prayers.

    To hell with Dan O'Halloran

    You're obviously right but after watching that again, I'm steaming!

    It's Time For Change

    Yeah. I'm gonna blame this on being Swedish and unable to read . Doesn't exactly make things better for this topic tho.

    The Official bring back Fedorov topic!

    Aside from Yzerman this guy was always my favourite when I was growing up with the Wings. GET IT DONE!! I don't care if he isn't the same, he scores one goal and smiles, raises his hands and I'm gonna go absolutely berserk. Sorry about the man-love over here but a hero is a hero...

    Lang Talk. Good God NOOOOO.

    Yeah, ew? Not that I really dislike the guy but no, time's up for this guy in Detroit.

    A way to fix bad penelty calls...?

    Dumb calls are a part of most sports - what would we do without them?

    Trade suggested on SI.com

    Why do we talk about Tucker - because it's way more likely than either of these. Esp Jokinen is way too expensive.

    Rumor: Campbell May be Moved

    A great depth pick-up for Detroit. Not the first pairing but certainly a guy who could play there if injuries make it necessary. But the guy will likely be expensive - definitely more so than Blake.

    There's no reason to give up that much for this guy. I don't think that the Leafs really want to keep the guy - he's probalby one of the players they'd be happy to just get rid off. Like Kubina in the other post in the Rumour forum. Not bad players but they just make too much money for what they bring to the table. And now before you start going off about how that's exactly why we shouldn't grab them - Detroit doesn't have the cap problem that Toronto has and can easily absorb the contract Tucker (or a comparable player) has. And the only way Toronto can get rid of these kind of contracts is by trading them away cheap.

    Who would you take, solid 2nd liner, or Dman.

    True. On the other hand Detroit has the space to absorb the amount that Kubina is overpaid. Not a lot of teams can afford to do that. Besides, Kubina isn't a bad player and would be able to contribute well. I don't see a problem with picking a guy like this up, but only if he comes cheap - really cheap.

    Going for 10.....

    Well... I guess this attempt is over...

    Cap to Go Up $3 Million

    Well, even more room for us now, that doesn't hurt.

    Tampa? How come?

    Who would you take, solid 2nd liner, or Dman.

    I don't doubt that Toronto would like to get rid of a lot of contracts right now. Kubina is likely not among the first but as you say he'd still come relatively cheap and Detroit has the cap-space for him this season and the next. By then who knows how far the cap has gone up? I wouldn't mind picking this guy up.

    Sergei Fedorov To Ottawa

    No need to apologize. A lot of people didn't like how thing went down when he left but I can't help but smiling whenever I see the guy play and it gets really sad when I see him in highlights and games from back when he was still wearing the Wings jersey. I was seriously considering getting his jersey after getting my Yzerman and Lids ones but decided to go with Zetts first. But the next one is definitely gonna be Fedorov. I just can't help myself.

    Great Article about Homer

    Olli Jokinen

    This guy on Detroit would suddenly be one of the top 15 players in the NHL...
