The 2008 Trade Deadline Thread

WoW...we really needed a 2nd line scorer
Last summer, and it wasn't the first, Holland said he wanted to be patient, and WILL make moves before the deadline. He knows what this team can do, and what tweaking he needs to do. And yet, another deadline comes & goes and we still see Samuelsson among our top 6 forwards. :thumbdown::thumbdown:

All we need now is the Holland presser and his lists of reasons WHY he couldn't do anything, and actually WHY he DIDN'T even need to do anything. Unreal.

Penguins give away, Colby Amrstong, Erik Christensen, Angelo Esposito and possibly a 1st round pick

Who moved their cheese? Pitts did apparently. and got a pretty decent player in return.

i dunno. if the Wings dont do anything im not going to go crazy like some of you are.

the Ducks did get better than last year yes they added Schneider and Bertuzzi and gave up Dustin Penner.

consider this: the Wings were pretty much neck and neck with the Ducks last year and they got some VERY generous bounces in that playoff series (the pass across crease that hit Lidstrom's stick and went in, Lilja coughing up the puck in OT).

im not gonna freak out, i think the Wings can definitely still hang with, and win a series against the Ducks. its just that im a bit concerned right now because the secondary scoring has been MIA the last few weeks.

dont forget niedefaggot pushing hasek in the net with his stick for a goal

If they don't sign Hossa in the off-season I can't wait for Flip to be a 100+ point guy. Flip is good, no question, but come on.

Does everyone still think Holland is the best GM in the league right now? Like people have said, he's a good gm, but not that good.

Actually Holland is the Best GM in the league. He didn't sell the team for a cup run.

Decisions aren't made only with him.

Montreal got BONED...they spend all day in the running for Hossa, and last minute its pulled to Pittsburgh and they are left with a pick for Huet...

OUCH

If you take out the Huet part you might wonder if that didnt' happen to us?

BTW whatever happened to Lang

I cant believe...with FIVE key injuries to this lineup.....having won ONE game of our last NINE....that Holland did nothing.

EVERY team that had issues, addressed them. The Wings sat on their hands. I guess Darren McCarty was the answer to all our problems.. :rolleyes:

Wings and Habs fans need to have a pity party..

Because Todd Bertuzzi represents all potential deadline acquisitions for every season from here until the end of time.

Well I'm just bringing up our last "Blockbuster" deal at the deadline.......How about Ranford/Clark/Samuellson/Chelios? Schneider?......Years we won the cup we got a combined Murphy (best deal), Macoun, Mironov and Slegr........Hmmm

Detroit better murder Edmonton tonight or it's fail x 2 today

Lidstrom, Rafalski, Kronwall, Chelios, Cleary and Draper out. Yeah I'm sure it will be a big one.

TSN is making another good point about Gretz back in 96. Everyone thought that was gonna be huge playing with Hull.
