"I dont want Lilja tonight, I want the Pain Train!"

[Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204]

Well, the Pain Train has vanished and we're left with Lilja, whos pretty darn horrible. It's too bad, the Pain Train had alot of potential to challenge for fighter of the year.

Anyways, looks like there might be another Pain Train waiting in the works.

Jonathan Ericsson. Kid had over 100 PIM's last year and has 59 this year, the difference between he and Lilja is a pretty obvious trait, SKILL. High hopes for this guy and Quincey, we're set on defence for a couple more years.

I wish that he would be more physical and drop the gloves more often because the team needs a lot more toughness.

Yes, right now that is exactly what a team already playing AHLers at the blueline needs. One of the only guys with NHL experience should risk hurting himself so that the wings can be down another player on the blueline.
