DreamsofHope 2 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 i really don't want him back, he didn't do much I think he offered the solid defensive stuff that sometimes goes unnoticed. I always keep running that image through my head though, when he pummled that guy and Dats went on to score... amazing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 I'll take Danny back. I loved when he and Lilja jumped on Warrener and Stuart when they liked jumped on Cleary when he lost an edge going to the net and bumped Kipper. And when he punched Cajanek Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WingsFan19 5 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 I would take Markov back for sure! He was a solid defenceman all year. He kinda went unnoticed because he just did his job. Nothing fancy, excpet that sweet ass hit he laid on the Oilers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
superstarsingh 23 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 When Markov went ape s*** against St. Louis towards the end of the season, it made my day. Comepletely random, and he just started hammering away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tweekvp 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 Hopefully Danny stays on the market long enough to make hime reconsider Hollands offer. I would welcome him back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StarsWingsFan 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 How much was he offered? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tweekvp 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 I think all I read was that he was offered a two year deal at the draft and he turned it down. I'm not sure how much $$. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungGuns1340 1 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 How much was he offered? If I had to take a guess, given that Holland said Markov didnt like the terms or the money, probably 1-2 years, 3M per. I wouldnt be surprised if the remaining teams who are looking to add a top 4 still - San Jose, Devils, NYI to name a few - are just waiting to see what happens with Souray. Then Im guessing Markov, Sutton, and possibly Vishnevski will be picked up. Too bad, because this defense corps would be the s***: Lidstrom-Markov Rafalski-Kronwall Chelios-Lebda Lilja-Quincey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StarsWingsFan 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 (edited) Thanks. I'm sure Illitch and Holland will do whatever it takes to get the deal done. I hope, anyway. I wouldnt be surprised if the remaining teams who are looking to add a top 4 still - San Jose, Devils, NYI to name a few - are just waiting to see what happens with Souray. What has happened with Souray? I thought he was the defenseman that every team coveted...? Or is there a deal in the works and we just haven't heard anything? Too bad, because this defense corps would be the s***: Lidstrom-Markov Rafalski-Kronwall Chelios-Lebda Lilja-Quincey I'd give up my firstborn child for a defense corps like that. Oh, and Wings season tickets also. Edited July 10, 2007 by StarsWingsFan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 I say just give him 2 yrs 5 million. He should take that , hes really only worth 2 mil IMO. So 2.5 is a good deal for Danny , plus he has a good chance to win a cup Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kindlwillbegreat 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 id love to see kenny trade lilja and get vishnevski for say 2.25 , so it would only be 1.25 added to the cap lidstrom vishnevski rafalski kronwall lebda chelios meech keep quince in grand rapids and let him have some playing time and when someone gets hurt he gets called up , meech cant be sent down through waivers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henkka 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 (edited) There's that 4 million to spend that leaves 2 million free space for injuries and deadline deals. I just have a feeling that Yashin is coming here. That physical defenseman will come at deadline (Foote). Filppula - Zetterberg - Samuelsson Cleary - Datsyuk - Holmstrom Franzen - Yashin - Hudler/Grigorenko/Kopecky Drake - Draper - Maltby Lidstrom - Foote Lilja - Rafalski Kronwall - Chelios (Lebda) Hasek Osgood PP: Yashin - Homer - Datsyuk Lidström - Rafalski Filppula - Cleary - Zetterberg Samuelsson - Kronwall Edited July 10, 2007 by Henkka Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Booster313 138 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 I'd like to see Markov back but it would take 3mill per. He made 2.5 last season and played solid. He earned a raise. Lets forget Yashin, and see what's available at the deadline. We'll make the playoffs either way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DRW Dominance 255 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 I liked the way Markov played but do we really need him back? Lilly was great in the playoffs. I don't think he should be a 7th Dman, unless he forgot his role. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zion 93 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 Markov was great, but he needs to be realistic on price. I'd love to see him back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kage5691 3 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 (edited) Theres no need to offer him any more money than holland already did. Which is who knows how much. If he isn't coming back then so be it. Edited July 10, 2007 by Kage5691 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeftWinger 4,936 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 I'd give up my firstborn child for a defense corps like that. Oh, and Wings season tickets also. ...you sir are demented... ...anyhow, scratch Markov off that list, we have 6 starting defencemen already and plenty of reserves... Lidstrom - Kronwall Chelios - Rafalski Lebda - Lilja (Stuart/Quincey/Meech/Kindl) ...what comes next is Adam Hall to round out the 4 lines w/Kopecky as the 13th forward... Too bad we can't use Hudler... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Majsheppard 203 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 All Drakes signing means is that we are not expecting to get any top six fowards. Drake can free up Johan or Cleary from forth or third line duties to go up and be a top six guy. That is what that means, which means that if anymore money was going to be spent it would most likely be on a Dman. More likely is no more money is going to be spent.

ShanahanMan 473 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 we're done on defense. At this point, its a top six forward or nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
