Echolalia 2,961 Report post Posted February 2, 2008 http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/rumors/post/Bl...i?urn=nhl,64856 the link says the Wings and Sens are both interested in Lapointe. He hasn't been too hot this year, but he is gritty. Although, I personally believe we have enough Lapointe-type players who can do his job and then some.

mark the red 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2008 We don't need him. He is gritty - plays hard for a game and then is a non-factor for 3 or 4 games. The biggest difference in the Wing''s team, last year and this year's team over the previos recent years teams is that everyone on is giving close to 100 percent every shift.

Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted February 2, 2008 I'd say no, Drake in the playoffs is the equivalent to Marty. Plus, I want Mac Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lou_Siffer 1 Report post Posted February 2, 2008 Well...of all the former Wings out there, Lapointe has been the only one i wouldnt mind seeing back here. But come on, they gotta stop trying to recapture the damn past, you want grit go get Chris Gratton. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GMRwings1983 8,804 Report post Posted February 2, 2008 How about we bring back Shanny, Feds, Lapointe, Eriksson, Kozlov, and McCarty. In return we'll trade Flip, Hudler, Sammy, Franzen, or anyone else that wasn't here 10 years ago. Then we can have a reunion of former Wings cups teams.

Kp-Wings 3 Report post Posted February 3, 2008 Lapointe sucks ass. I'd rather have McCarty or Chris Gratton. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grittzkey 1 Report post Posted February 4, 2008 Ive read that Gratton might be able to be shipped away kinda cheap.. and if it means Stanley cup, i can see him waiving his NTC. GRATTON PLZ PLZ PLZ PL Z Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigd78 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2008 Would love to see Marty back in Detroit. Obviously he hasnt been incredibly productive this year but being with a better team he could be better than Drake or Downey and hes just as tough or tougher. Hes a good character guy and would be valuable come playoff time. I'm sick of seeing our guys getting pushed around, and Lapointe can score and lay the pop.
