Matt should install a counter on the top of this page that reads: "It has been __ days since we've had a Fedorov thread." Yup - put a hold on this until about mid-July....and if one gets started, it needs something more substantial than "I miss you". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest DetroitIan Report post Posted June 5, 2007 All I know is, if we could get him for around 1.5 mill a year. I am all in favor of it. And Im not trying to hold on to the past or anything. Im just thinking logically. He's still fast as hell, he still has a lazor shot. And he's still great at winning draws. For the right contract, he would be a great pick-up. The thing is though, its not gonna happen. Im sure Feds will demand more $$ per year. But if for once he didn't think about the money, im all in favor of it.

Guest Agalloch Report post Posted June 5, 2007 I don't think we win one stanley cup if it wasn't for Fedorov. You're right. But what the hell does that have to do with the present?! You gonna use a time machine on him or something? Typical case of someone wanting a player back because of nostalgia. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Shoreline Report post Posted June 5, 2007 I don't think we win one stanley cup if it wasn't for Fedorov. Or Yzerman, or Lidstrom, or others. It's a team sport, which is why I'm pissed he packed his s*** up and went to Anaheim. He wanted out of Detroit so badly (bad enough to take a 5 year, 40 million dollar deal, and reject a Wings 5 year, 50 million dollar offer) why would he come back anyways? Additionally, for the slap in the face, why would we want him back? Of course I'm bitter. Just as bitter as Jerry Rice leaving the 49ers for a few hundred thousand more on his yearly salary. Fedorov was a franchise player, fans latched onto that, and he showed no team loyalty. I don't have a Fedorov voodoo doll, nor do I spend much time thinking about him, but when the Wings play his team, I enjoy hearing him get booed. Hell, any time the JLA shows any liveliness, I enjoy it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DetroitIan Report post Posted June 5, 2007 i miss you <3 This coming from the same guy ranting and raving about not signing Kozzie cause we don't wanna be the soft *******. Yeah gee Feds is real tough and hardcore. Funny thing is I love Feds, and I actually agree with you. I just find it interesting coming from you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Typical case of someone wanting a player back because of nostalgia. i didn't say i wanted him back, i jus said i miss him? although he's a FA after this season, if u see what i'm trying to get at This coming from the same guy ranting and raving about not signing Kozzie cause we don't wanna be the soft *******. Yeah gee Feds is real tough and hardcore. Funny thing is I love Feds, and I actually agree with you. I just find it interesting coming from you. You can't compare Kozlov to Fedorov.

Let's be realistic here. Im not comparing their skill. Im just comparing the fact that around the league they are both called "soft Russians". Feds has tons of skill, but to say he plays a physical game is far far off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn't even say Fedorov is soft, he can take punishment, he just doesn't dish it out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thats true actually, he does seam to be able to take alot of punishment. Thats actually another thing I really like about Feds, he rarely gets any bad injuries.

Rather, he's strong on the puck (his typical outside-in move for instance) instead of the body. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted June 5, 2007 No , not needed here. He isnt that good anymore , hes unmotivated. Lets get a Smyth or a Hartnell and let Flip play 2nd line center. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HockeyCrazy3033 168 Report post Posted June 5, 2007 (edited) Fedorov is very capable of still being the awesome two way player that he once was back with the Wings. In fact..he's coming around again from some of the games I've seen from this season. Bringing him back would be gold, and the lines would be phenomenal..AND we'd have someone that can actually play the point besides Schneids! Not saying Feds is the same he was years back, but he's still good enough to make a difference. Edited June 5, 2007 by HockeyCrazy3033 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joshy207 156 Report post Posted June 5, 2007 Funny thing about Fedorov... I remember when Detroit first signed him, the only video clip shown onf him was from the Goodwill Games, and it was of him beating the s*** out of someone... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

datsyukfan2000 0 Report post Posted June 5, 2007 I'd still take Fed's over Lang any day of the week. Fed's can skate backwards on his worst day faster than Lang can skate and Fed's isn't defensive liability unlike Lang. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
