Hank 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2008 I definitely think Hank is playing injured. I just hope this back problem won't plague him for the rest of his career. Especially if we sign him long term for a boat load of money. LivingtheDream, you can post whatever you want as long as you keep that sweet avatar in place. Brian Fontana would approve.

Yemack 1 Report post Posted March 14, 2008 well look what I found ... the Dragon Skin! This is a lighter, more form fitting, more effective and less bulky kevlar armor. I searched around the net and this looks like exactly what Homer and Hank might need. Dragon Skin + Z = Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Donaldjr2448 43 Report post Posted March 15, 2008 I think we can all remeber when Kris Draper made it into the league in 1993. Draper was paired with Sergei Fedorov. Since Feds was always double teamed Draper seemed to always be in the right spot at the right time. I have noticed lately that Z has been double teamed alot more, and rightfully so! During the Chicago game there was always 2 hawks on Z! That beeing said, this just means that one skater out there is all by himself, much like Draper was in the beginning of his career!

Guest LivingtheDream Report post Posted March 15, 2008 What is this fair weathered fandom you speak of, you mean people only rooting for the team when things go their (the fan not the team) way!! NO not on the internet!! Surely you jest, Don't call me Shirley!! (Airplane, anyone!) Hey Shirley, you are right. I mean, look how the fans stepped up for the team during that 10+ game streak of awful hockey! :-) It was truly an awe inspiring demonstration of faith, trust and optimism. I don't want to even say it, but I hope Hank's back isn't the issue here. Still, he is a super athlete, young, healthy beyond anything we might imagine and the wings have to have the best darn docs on the planet for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still, he is a super athlete, young, healthy beyond anything we might imagine and the wings have to have the best darn docs on the planet for him. I think it's simply a case of one of the Euro twins stealing the spotlight. It's been like this their whole careers. One of them is playing so well that the other one doesn't look quite as good by comparison, but in reality is still playing well. And, second line, Sammy minutes while being double teamed will do that toa guy. That's why the Wings are so lucky they have Dats AND Hank. If any team ever even manages to shut ONE of them down, that's all they can do. It's nice to have two barrels to shoot out of, isn't it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
