Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted February 26, 2009 I'd love it. Pronger-Lidstrom would dominate everything. Unfortunately, he has 2 years left, so we'll have 0 interest this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ben_usmc 253 Report post Posted February 26, 2009 Go wash your mouth out with soap young man! esteef lol hey sometimes the ends justify the means. Of course that is making a deal with the Devil, but we would have the sickest defense in the league. What would a trade like that involve, I would take it Flip and someone else plus prospects?

NeverForgetMac25 483 Report post Posted February 26, 2009 It would be as painful as when the Wings picked up Chelios. You hate the thought of it but you know he'd be great on your team, just like the addition of Cheli was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VladyIBELIEVE16 257 Report post Posted February 26, 2009 NO A MILLION TIMES NO... I do NOT want that J-A on this team EVER. After you wash your mouth out with soap and don't get dessert - please go to your room for the next DECADE. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RedStormRising 7 Report post Posted February 26, 2009 I'm not sure. In an ideal world I would love to have him. However, I haven't heard anything before from his teammates about him and what they think of him. If his teammates like him then sure, but if he's not a team player then no way. Plus I don't know how Holmstrom would feel about him coming to Detroit... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he did get lippy we could always threatin him by making him stand in front of a Sammy slapshot; we all know how he feels about those Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cusimano_brothers 1,655 Report post Posted February 26, 2009 Pronger, so far: 62 games played, 72 PIM. This would lead the DRW in that category. Wouldn't you rather be on the PP than the PK? I would take a pass; too much past history and baggage, all in one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shaman 713 Report post Posted February 26, 2009 How are we going to pay his salary? His cap hit is like 6 million for the next two years. Screw that, I'd rather have Hossa! Id rather have herpes, less shame in having herpes than having Pronger on your team...he is just garbage I can get 10 more like that...hes not what we need.
