Hockey13Playa 240 Report post Posted June 13, 2007 Not in Detroit I will tell you that much. I could see him going back to play for the Pittsburg penguins. Or a .500 ranked team that needs some help, becasue I don't think any decent or better teams really want him, maybe Rangers as stated above to play with Jagr? who knows.

martyrme19 73 Report post Posted June 13, 2007 Hopefully we use the empty spot to give Hudler more of a role. The extra cash should be used to sign schneids, markov, bertuzzi, and hell, i even want calder back. and Hasek. wow, that was an easy off-season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kp-Wings 3 Report post Posted June 13, 2007 Thank God it'll hopefully be somewhere other than here. That said, if Holland signs Alexei Yashin instead, I'll warp back in time and make sure the Wings re-sign Lang. If it has to be one or the other, I'd rather have Lang!

jenova0 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2007 It sucks, cuz I love Lang on the Wings. However, we are way too deep @ center. With the emergence of Filp & Huds, there just isn't any room. And we need to spend that money on scoring wingers. It's also my gf's favorite Wing, so that sux too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And we need to spend that money on scoring wingers. hate to say it, but QFT. i love Lang a whole lot, i just really don't see him coming back here. if thats true, id like to see him sign with the Rangers. get a little Red Wings - Rangers Stanley Cup Finals action right there.

SouthernWingsFan 854 Report post Posted June 13, 2007 Meh, it's either a love/hate thing with me for Lang. I appreciate the clutch goals he's been able to score the few seasons that he has been with the Wings, but when he isn't doing that, I ask myself, "What planet is this guy on?" It won't kill me to see him go, but I won't be throwing a temper tantrum if he's back on the Wings either. I don't expect him back though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoWings1905 2,694 Report post Posted June 13, 2007 I think Lang will end up with the Rangers next season. I wouldn't mind seeing him sign with another team from the Central Division, so that for once the Red Wings will be on the receiving end of his infamous giveaways for eight games each year. I hate to say it, but I don't care where he goes as long as it means he doesn't come back to the Wings. That being said, Good Luck Robert and happy giveaways.

WhiteLightning91 105 Report post Posted June 13, 2007 Anyone even here anything about Holland talking to Lang or his agent? I have heard/read about Holland talking to everyone else but can't remember hearing/reading anything about him and Lang. Same goes for Calder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Production Line 1 Report post Posted June 13, 2007 I think we could pick up a better FA Center for the money at this time. And We are getting deep at Center. We have been going with our youth and its playing out well... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Crymson Report post Posted June 13, 2007 Whats ur thoughts on this guy wheres he goin or is he stayin ?...........just curiousabout that and maybe so other offseason predictions for the wings.... Let's sign him and trade him for Jagr! Make it happen, Kenny! Seriously, though: no Lang next season. Guaranteed. Babcock hates him and the fans hate him. He's an irresponsible, non-working sloth with evidently zero self-respect. Off with him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spydrwebb 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2007 i know a lot of people will disagree and i'm ok with that but... lang and hudler should both be shown the door. it's already been stated, the FA center market is deep enough to get a better return on our investment. i know hudler is cheap but he still takes up a roster spot for somebody that could do more for the wings.

BeeRYCE 2 Report post Posted June 13, 2007 The most probable team has to be the Rangers, just because of the amount of Czechs they have and like to acquire. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haroldsnepsts 4,826 Report post Posted June 13, 2007 I'm guessing he's probably going. This past season was a disappointment, and he didn't really redeem himself in the playoffs. With his departure, it's hard to believe it but the Wings will be an even smaller team next season unless Kenny makes some impressive moves. I know Lang wasn't a crasher or banger but it's a lot harder to move a 6'2" 215 lb buy off the puck than a 5'9 180 lb guy (Hudler). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hudler was 6th on the team in goals, despite playing minimal time all season on the fourth line. Holmstrom and Zetterberg were the only players to score more goals per minute than Hudler. Hudler's first game with 14 or more minutes played was Feb 27th. From Feb 27th until the end of the regular season, Hudler played 14 or more minutes 12 times in 19 games. In those 12 games, he posted 5-4-9, +9. Adding in the seven games where he played less than 14 minutes, and he was 6-7-13, +9 in 19 games. Adjust those totals to his 76 games played, and you have 24-28-52, +36 for the full season. Certainly not a guarantee, but given his age, price, and what he was capable of doing in limited time, I'd like to see who you are suggesting as a better fit than Hudler.
