rick zombo 3,739 Report post Posted July 5, 2007 (edited) Someone mentioned Mike York. Detroit has had interest in him before. It wouldn't suprise me if they signed him at all. He'd be a good bargain. Has tremendous speed and good two-way ability. He's mostly a playmaker, but I think he'd work well as a 2nd line center/winger. Also, despite his size, he's not fragile. And sign Hasek and Sutton. Filpulla - Datsyuk - Holmstrom York - Zetterberg - Franzen Sameulson - Cleary - Grigorenko Maltby - Draper - Kopecky Hudler Lidstrom - Rafalski Sutton - Kronwall Chelios - Lebda Lilja Hasek Osgood. That would be fine. The defence would maybe be the league's best. Then add some size up front at the deadline. Edited July 5, 2007 by rick zombo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
superstarsingh 23 Report post Posted July 5, 2007 (edited) Screw Yashin. Screw Guerin. Vasicek or Asham, I would not mind either of the two of them. Vasicek can play well, he just has not showed that as of late. Screw Fedoruk then. Winchester and Asham please! I forgot the Oil let him go Edited July 5, 2007 by superstarsingh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

motorcitykid 42 Report post Posted July 5, 2007 I doubt Murrays stupid enough to do it , but can you imagine if we got Neil and Mcgrattan , oh man. Throw in Asham as a FA signing and we'd be looking good grit wise. I still wish Kenny had done something , an offer to Torres or Penner , I want some grit damnit! Just what the hell are you smoking? Asham, Neil & McGrattan? Are you friggin' serious? Are we looking to build a team of guys who can fight, not score and contribute to a 1st round exit? Or are we trying to retool and win a Cup next year? i don't think we need a player off anyones radar right about now. kenny might wake up in time to sign a top 6 forward! wait, i forgot...there's not any left Nice. Do remember if there is a GM who doesn't give a s*** about what the fans think or want it is Ken Holland. He's never been one to listen to the fans and make splashes.

Superman54 91 Report post Posted July 5, 2007 Im still wondering why no one has ever mentioned Alexei Semenov.He is 6'6", weighs 235 pounds and plays defense. Only 26 years old, he sounds good to me! http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/teams/players/bio/?i...amp;hubname=nhl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pondrocket 35 Report post Posted July 5, 2007 Anson Carter ~ Did he drop off the face of the earth? Remember that he was one of the big guns last summer? I haven't read his name once (after the trade to the Hurricanes)?? Did he suck that bad? I never payed attention. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hank 0 Report post Posted July 5, 2007 Allison is extremely out of shape. He hasn't played in over a year, and survives souly on the PP. When he's playing even strength, he looks totally lost, due to his very slow foot speed. He's no longer an effective player at all in any stretch of the imagination. Thank you! His last season he recorded 60 points with 39 of them coming on the PP. He was getting less than .33 points per game even-strength. And this is with him playing on the 2nd line. Plus, he's lazy and he sucks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are we looking to build a team of guys who can fight, not score and contribute to a 1st round exit? Or are we trying to retool and win a Cup next year? Haha , get a clue dude. If you dont know about a player then please , dont talk about them. Chris Neil is the best 2-way enforcer in the game , his playoffs this year were great. He can score goals , fight , hit and hes a great team guy. Asham is the same type of guy , just not as good offensively. I'll give you Mcgrattan as the only guy who only fights. And holy s*** man , you really want the Wings to be a bunch of small softies dont ya? Adding those 3 would NOT give us an early exit , it'd help us against Anaheim , thats for sure , actually have some big bodies that can throw some body checks against The Ducks instead of them body checking us all the time. I just gotta ask , You were one of the people that wanted us to sign Kozlov and trade for Fedorov right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
redwingfan19 293 Report post Posted July 5, 2007 Brad winchester is very intriguing he's only 26 but is still pretty raw, he has the makings of a Power forward though so maybe if we put him with some good players he could flourish. It's worked for cleary ect. He could proboaly be had for the league minimun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kp-Wings 3 Report post Posted July 5, 2007 Screw Yashin. Screw Guerin. Vasicek or Asham, I would not mind either of the two of them. Vasicek can play well, he just has not showed that as of late. I forgot the Oil let him go Good thinking. I would somehow like to add Asham and Winchester all at the same time, with Vasicek or maybe Mike York also thrown in there. Unfourntantly, the Hudler signing puts a bind on that. Him and Samulesson really screw up my roster plans. Oh well. There's always NHL 07! I should make these rosters and see how they do.

He's on my 3rd line. May is a good choice though. Could always use more toughness, you know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest EZBAKETHAGANGSTA Report post Posted July 5, 2007 some of our biggest players have been castoffs from other teams. The stories are legendary, we got Draper for a dollar from the jets. The Leafs couldn't give us larry murphy fast enough. Cleary was a ufa that no one wanted, i bet Jim playfair wanted him after he made his goalie look ridicioulous this playoffs (see my sig). The list goes on. To be perfecty honest, its when we sign the big free agent that worries me. Hatcher, Krupp, Whitney all guys who did nothing on this team. Some guys we sign big do well after they leave us, but off hand i can't think of one big free agent signing that didn't already play on our team at one point do much for us. To be fair Whitney went from being on the top line and first pp unit to second-third line second ppl unit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
