Booster313 138 Report post Posted October 12, 2009 We all know that LGW can be nostalgic sometimes even to a fault, so name 3 players who at one time were Red Wings and why you think they would help our current team. 1. Hasek- He's in contention for the olympics so we know he can still compete, he and Ozzie got along great and he could win 15-20 regular season games as Ozzie's 1b backup. 2. Fedorov- I think Sergei could fill in cheaply for the gap that Johan's injury left 3. Kyle Quincey- thought it was a mistake to let him go instead of Meech, look at his offensive upside. I would put Hossa on the list, because I have always liked him, but due to his surgery and timing of his return he would bring little value at this point.

Z and D for the C 712 Report post Posted October 12, 2009 (edited) ^ Guessing he means active. I'd say Sammy, Hossa and......Quincey I guess. Though quincey didn't give us any reason to keep him. Edited October 12, 2009 by Z and D for the C Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

titanium2 867 Report post Posted October 12, 2009 (edited) Definitely Quincey. On paper it sounds awesome to have him taking up Meech's 10-12 minutes. Question, if Quincey was able to play on the PK, who would go out in his spot? Probably Kronwall right? EDIT: Oh yeah, I'd like Danny Markov back.

RusDRW 155 Report post Posted October 12, 2009 Danny Markov is awful in KHL right now so not regrets here. Hudler also shows that he can't be the guy. They play on the same team right now and they lost around 15 out of 20 games in the season by now So we have a good chance to see Hudler back next season... back to the topic. Quincey is the only valuable asset who was given a chance in our system. Mike Green is another story However, I still double we would fit well here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quincey is the only valuable asset who was given a chance in our system. Mike Green is another story However, I still double we would fit well here. The Wings never owned the rights to Mike Green. The Caps acquired him with a draft pick that the Wings had traded away in the Lang deal. Saying that that trade prevented the team from drafting Green is a longshot.

P. Marlowe 748 Report post Posted October 12, 2009 Marian Hossa (of course, but my other two picks would probably be easier to fit under the cap) Kyle Quincey (so, he turned out to be quite good after all) Slava Kozlov (he'd be so nice to have especially now when Franzén's hurt, besides I've always liked him) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FinWing 26 Report post Posted October 12, 2009 No love for Ray Whitney? Not really the type of player the Wings lack right now but a solid playmaker nonetheless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Booster313 138 Report post Posted October 12, 2009 Thanks for all the great reply's, I was just bored last night, and yes they should be active or at least alive, I'm all for bringing Sawchuck back but I am not sure the a corpse would stop many pucks at this point. Didn't think about Kozlov but that's a great idea! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark THS 2 Report post Posted October 12, 2009 I'll throw Jiri Fischer's name into the discussion- since he's not 45 and could hypothetically still be a productive player. A big, physical body on the blue line would be great Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dimaline312000 51 Report post Posted October 12, 2009 1. Howe 2. Yzerman 3. Sawchuk Duh!! Ditto. But if it has to be active players. than.... 1. Fedorov- Will probably score goals until he's in his grave. Maybe not as many but he can score. 2. Qunicey- I got his autorgraph at the 08 Training Camp.... lol. 3. Lang- I just like his style of play and thought he was a real hard worker for the Wings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
