Donaldjr2448 43 Report post Posted July 4, 2009 I doubt Calder would be brought back, he didn't mesh well with Babcock! I wouldn't mind seeing Dandy or Arnason! I don't know too much about Tyler, but what the heck! I would like to see Bertuzzi back! I think he would be another Dallas Drake! we could use that next year!!!

LeftWinger 4,963 Report post Posted July 4, 2009 (edited) Well, Dandy is like a more experienced Meech, but if did he come back he couldn't have #11, he'd have to turn it around like Hos.... oh, oops! Hmmm, Bertuzzi, I don't know... Hungry for a Cup, of course, what Candian boy isn't? Gritty, ok, I'll give him that, tough, not anymore, he is afraid to punch anyone anymore. He's one of thse guys that doesn't look good in the Winged Wheel, sorta like Hatcher and Krupp, they just look funny... Uwe Krapp shouldn't even been allowed to touch that Cup after the garbage he pulled that year! Edited July 4, 2009 by LeftWinger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wingseroo 0 Report post Posted July 4, 2009 Look if they keep Hudler no room really for guys that are not in house... If they do not then how about trying for a Manny Malhotra? Wings will not be able to replace the scoring loss within their budget for a top 2 line scorer if its not Hudler, so I guess at that point yeah sign a grit guy... Why not a young guy with size and some scoring touch vs the over the hill crowd often being discussed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Torless 0 Report post Posted July 4, 2009 how about Brendan Morrison? Veteran player... traded away from New Jersey right before they won the cup... he can score... getting older, but he might be the Drake of the year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RedFX 48 Report post Posted July 4, 2009 What made Drake ... Drake? HE WAS GRITTY, HE HAD HEART, HE WOULD DO WHATEVER IT TOOK TO WIN, AT ALL AND ANY COSTS. What do any of the mentioned players have that drake had? NOTHING!! +1 Another thing alot of people forget about is health. Drake really didn't have any nagging injuries that followed him throughout the twilight of his career. Since the lockout, Bertuzzi hasn't gone through an entire season without missing significant time. Not to mention Drake was a world-class leader who's presence was felt on and off the ice.
