Shady Ultima 40 Report post Posted August 6, 2010 Why don't they just hang #6 on the rafters? People don't even know about him half the time. I believe the same goes for #16 as well. If they're officially retired by the team since 1939 (for Aurie) they might as well just toss up a banner, or allow new players to use it. I wonder if one day, people will have to start using 3 digit jersey numbers? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest mindfly Report post Posted August 6, 2010 (edited) What do you mean? You've never heard of Larry Aurie before?

I wonder if one day, people will have to start using 3 digit jersey numbers? This is what should be done, hang somewhere in the Joe and even the next arena (Delta Centre) a couple of jersey banners recognizing numbers out of circulation. #6, #16 and hopefully #24. They don't have to be retired, but maybe somewhere in the concourse have giant photos of the players and have their jerseys hanging next to them and OFFICIALLY take them out of circulation....

RedWingskiddo 3 Report post Posted August 6, 2010 I am still not sure about this. I know offense will be great but we still don't have anything solid for last d pairing and coupled with the fact our goal tending is soft, I don't see progress. I get there is no way we could get a solid dman for a steal like Modano too. Welcome mike. Kenny needs to get rolling on the back end sometime soon. And that talk bout trading meech for a six pack was hilarious! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cupforwings 138 Report post Posted August 6, 2010 $1.75m? Awful, but I didn't expect anything less. :crybaby: :crybaby: seriously dude, thats what you sound like. Modano is the best option to make this team better, period. 1 Zeowingsfan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EDIT: Also, I would like to apologize to Mrs. Willa Mandy Ford-Modano for any false accusations I made against her in regards to Mikey coming to Detroit. I'm stupid. You're smart. I was wrong. You were right. You're the best. I'm the worst. You're very good-looking. I'm not attractive.

titanium2 867 Report post Posted August 6, 2010 To be honest, no, i didnt watch hockey when dinosaurs walked the earth dude was born in 1905 Haha, well neither did I but Aurie and I think Red Kelly are big topics of negative press for the Ilitches and are often debated on here. Or at least I think it was on this Wings board. http://www.mlive.com/redwings/index.ssf/2010/08/mike_modanos_wife_encouraged_h.html"I think it was more so on my wife’s radar than anything,'' Modano said. "She wanted me to go play, and especially in Detroit to kind of shove it up everybody’s ... you know." I'd like to shove it up Mandy Modano's... you know.
