HOCKEY MATTERS 167 Report post Posted December 15, 2010 Does anyone know what Lids is wearing on his wrist? I think I've seen Abdelkader wearing the same thing on-ice, but I can't make out exactly what it is. I noticed that, too. Looked like some kind of Euro-girly watch to me.

BlakKy 58 Report post Posted December 15, 2010 these were clearly the most badass jerseys In complete agreement. A german adler on gold, black and red is pretty intimidating. In related news... the german world cup jerseys were also the best internationally. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Echolalia 2,961 Report post Posted December 15, 2010 I always figured Ozzie would have a six-pack. The beers are just out of shot. So quick question: Datsyuk gets the puck and he has one guy between him and the goalie and its Lidstrom. Does Dats get by him or does Lids keep him to the outside and force a low percentage shot?

Guest scottj Report post Posted December 15, 2010 (edited) I think Lids would be able to keep him on the outside. I have no idea why I think that way, but the guy's just amazing... obviously one of the best, he just knows what he's doin. good question though... too bad Russia didn't play Sweden in the olympics then you probably would have an answer I would think that Datsyuk would eventually make it past him but Osgood said that he's never seen Lids f*** up 1 on 1... probably exaggerating but I dunno Edited December 15, 2010 by scottj Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

datsyukfan2000 0 Report post Posted December 16, 2010 Good interview, Nick is pure class as usual and do love the jab at Homer (you can hear chuckles in the background). Look at the praise by his peers, I don't think I have read an interview by Orr that did not praise Nick on his ability to be at the right place - right time, Orr praises his smarts/vision and making the hard look easy. Screw Melrose as he doesn't know squat, when Bobby Orr breaks out the praise it makes Melrose insignificant also Scotty Bowman doesn't give out the praise much. I remember a interview with Nick and they asked him if he ever had to go see Coach Bowman for being in his doghouse, Nick said "Never went to the Coach's office".

Too bad it didn't help him when he got Kronwalled! it didn't help him with anything else, either. i would think someone as seemingly-intelligent as lids would buy in to crap like that. though, i guess when you make millions of dollars a year you can afford a thirty dollar bracelet that doesn't do anything. 1 megaelixir reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest mindfly Report post Posted December 18, 2010 Lidstrom my captain, what happend... a +2 thus far? :/ I think it's too much hype about lidstrom tbh, he's good pointwise compared to other seasons 30 games into the seasons, but he has been very poor defensively in some games, at chicago the other night he was brutal, lidstrom should be leading the league in +/- or be at the top, not almost a minus player :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lidstrom isn't your captain. He's captain of the Detroit Red Wings, not of mopey little ******* who whine incessantly. 1 Zeowingsfan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
