jim3033 1 Report post Posted February 28, 2008 He's staying in room 24 at the Motel 6 in Southfield...... That aint right... Motel 6's are sooo small. The "rumor" is that his wife has a kid/kids from a previous marriage, and if she leaves the state she loses custody of her kid(s). That sucks. He's floated around on a lot of teams. I bet he will want to stay in Detroit unless he goes to Anaheim like everyone else that leaves Detroit. Hope they solve his GF problem... Besides great weather year round, the ocean, mountains, and an economy? Not much. Detroit is nice. He can live in Bloomfield Hills. We're surrounded by lakes. He can still go to the mountains. It'll take him an hour or 2 longer flight that's all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HenrikRules40 14 Report post Posted February 28, 2008 Best. smiley. everrrrrrr. I bet Stuart ends up in Birmingham. Whatever...who cares. As long as he's an effective defenseman and doesn't leave his car running to go get a latte, I'm good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OsGOD 3 Report post Posted February 28, 2008 (edited) What do they have in California that they don't have in Detroit? Pretty much everything.... Michigan sucks At least he didn't follow McCarty's act and drop her cold turkey. I give Stewie credit for that. Edited February 28, 2008 by OsGOD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haroldsnepsts 4,826 Report post Posted February 28, 2008 (edited) Detroit is nice. He can live in Bloomfield Hills. We're surrounded by lakes. He can still go to the mountains. It'll take him an hour or 2 longer flight that's all. I lived in Detroit for 25 years. It is nice, but it doesn't beat Southern california. And it's an hour drive to get to the mountains in California, with traffic. You can go surfing and skiing in the same day. Expected high in Los Angeles: 73 degrees and sunny Expected high in Detroit: 17 degrees and overcast (and we're not talking celsius) More on topic, a fair amount of King's fans over at HFboards made it sound like they didn't expect to be able to re-sign Stuart this summer anyway, even though they wanted to. Hopefully he'll enjoy being a Red Wing enough to give Holland that option. He and Chelios can head back to california every chance they get...

Jwo 7 Report post Posted February 28, 2008 She must be really hot if he's that concerned with his girlfriend. She's not even his wife for crying out loud, so why is she leading him around? What do they have in California that they don't have in Detroit? Detroit has 4 seasons which means mores shopping for his girl too do and find accessories. What Girl does not like shopping and accessories? The "rumor" is that his wife has a kid/kids from a previous marriage, and if she leaves the state she loses custody of her kid(s). I'm sure Mr.Ilitch can make something happen or someone disappearing. Just like how he get the Russians in America. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest CaliWingsNut Report post Posted February 28, 2008 (edited) Hey! It's not all bad. I can still watch Red Wings games on the internet, and I can actually find a job out here. Edit: Ohh... and It's only about an hours drive for me to go to my choice of two horrid (for different reasons) nhl team games!

sergei_is_still_a_wing 1 Report post Posted February 28, 2008 Southern california is the greatest place to be in the world. i can drive max two hours in a number of directions and hit: another country, snow covered mountains, the beach, two arenas at which NHL games are held regularly, multiple stadiums with decent football/baseball teams, and Yuma, AZ. (errr ok forget about that last one). its great. and LA doesn't characterize socal. LA sucks. come on down to san diego for a real treat. that being said, i hope brad fits into the system quickly. we need our D back b/c we are getting stomped w/o them.
