Ozzie30 170 Report post Posted April 2, 2007 When Lang (for sure) leaves this summer, who do the Wings pick up? If Datsyuk walks as well, I think the Wings will push hard for Gomez? Thoughts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hockey13Playa 240 Report post Posted April 2, 2007 Gomez would be a good move I think, I have always like Gomez, I think he could play well in Detroit. As for Datsyuk, the way he has been playing lately, I really don't want him to leave Detroit. He was here his whole career so far, and I would hate to loose him, hes just "part" of the wings.

Bluedevils_13 0 Report post Posted April 2, 2007 We should get Naslund so we can have a Dats-Zetter and a Bert-Naslund line. In real life...I would love to get a good shooter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dang I would love that, that would be sweet. Chance it would happen, I don't think its a high %. Is he a free agent this summer anyways, or whats his contract status. ps. anyone have a good site that tells players contracts and all that jazz? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StaticWithABeat 0 Report post Posted April 2, 2007 Who cares, as long as Lang is gone :beerbuddy: Gomez would be pretty sweet, but I'd rather see Hudler or Filppula get a shot at that position before we run out and pay someone with five times their salary to fill it. If either one of them can handle it, then there's a few million dollars that can be used to fill another roster need. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hockey13Playa 240 Report post Posted April 2, 2007 No. NHL NUMBERS Thanks a bunch! and yeah I didn't think he was, but wasn't 100% sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Offsides 21 Report post Posted April 2, 2007 I have a question. How do we KNOW that Lang will leave. How do we know that we will not re-sign him? Has The Red Wing organization, or Robert Lang said this? Because it seems like common knowledge around the boards. Depending on what happens in the playoffs, I think anything could happen.

Airborn 0 Report post Posted April 2, 2007 Save our money and promote Filppula. Do you really think he needs another year of 11 minutes of ice time? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hockey13Playa 240 Report post Posted April 2, 2007 Since were on the topic of Lang leaving. I have a question, I know this somewhat off topic but I thought I would just ask it anyways. What do you think happended to Lang? When he was in Washington he was obviously a different player, and he was putting up solid numbers. Ever since coming to Detroit, who is much more talented team, his production, and effort has tremendously decreased. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Promote from within and use the money to resign our big FA's like Dats, Bert and Calder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Otherwise, he is pretty useless. ...that and he probably doesn't like Babcock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arin 0 Report post Posted April 2, 2007 Looking for a center?!? Wings probably have the most centers in the LEAGUE. Datsyuk and Z can both make their own offense, lets start rolling two scoring lines again.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

savaking72 0 Report post Posted April 2, 2007 I think Datsyuk will stay, and getting rid of Lang will held fund the Datsyuk deal. Datsyuk will come around this year in the playoffs. I believe we will be looking for a new goalie, and a couple guys on defense. Osgood and hasek are old news. Same as lilja. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
