LeftWinger 5,153 Report post Posted February 11, 2010 (edited) this is the exact reason Kronwall should've have been dealt on draft day to try to move up. Kronwall is a china doll, always has been, so he had one year where he remained healthy. Every other one of his 6 seasons he has been hurt in some way. There is no "Nick jr." Lidstrom is one of a kind and they broke the mold when they made him. Kronwall will NEVER be anywhere near what he is being talked about, you want to free up salary, trade this guy and free up the $3M you will need to aquire someone at the deadline. We'll have to give Ericsson some more time to show his face beciase he is still a rookie. All this talk about trading a defenseman, well Lebda, Meech AND Kronwall should all be dealt. I am tired of this china doll. Holmstrom needs to retire too, if he cannot stay healthy anymore, hang em up. Lilja will not be the same, once you have a concussion, it's always on your mind the next time you go to make a big hit or block a shot or get in to a scrap. Just ask Lindros...

ilmickeyli 40 Report post Posted February 11, 2010 They really need to stop with the DMC doctor ads during wings games.. Who would want to be associated with all of these long-lasting injuries? Seriously Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CMatt89 63 Report post Posted February 11, 2010 That was the wrong time to go for a big hit while 4 on 4. I'm just saying that he got injured in a careless situation for which he was to blame. He needs to play with his head, and not his adrenaline. I wouldn't say careless... misjudgment maybe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he was on an opposing team in the playoffs after we dealt him away, there would be people calling for Kennys head.. He is a helluva player when he is healthy especially in pressure games. So he made a mistake on that play, he is still young. I would still like him attempt to make that play then not imo...
