LeftWinger 4,963 Report post Posted June 23, 2012 literally nobody on TV mentions the wings when the talk about nash or ryan. pisses me off. Could be a good thing....of course like us, they are used to the same old Holland....they have mentioned Parise a few times tonight and not a mention of Detroit either...the NHL never gives respect to Detroit. They mentioned Detroit once when some kid was drafted who's head coach in jr. is Jesse Walin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xtrememachine1 795 Report post Posted June 23, 2012 I like how Yahoo is using the Caps and Lightning's old logos for their draft page. I'm surprised to see the Jets logo instead of the Thrashers at this point. 2 dirtydangles and Hockey13Playa reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirtydangles 1,328 Report post Posted June 23, 2012 anyone interested in collberg? if he lasts into the second round i'd love for holland to move up and nab him. 1 Marty Barry reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LGW will be set on fire if that happens You are damn right...if that happens the I will seriously question Holland's thought process...the problem is, he cannot sit still and watch his rivals get younger and better and just believe that either the UFA's will come running because "It's Detroit" or that his undrafted Euro's that he is always interested in are going to put Detroit back on top...So far...same old off season to start... Let's make a deal tomorrow! 1 Hockey13Playa reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AtomicPunk 296 Report post Posted June 23, 2012 Detroit is not the only team gunning for Parise or Suter or Ryan or any of these other players. Every team thinks they can land them. I have a feeling we will be picking up crumbs after some dark horse comes and overpays for one of the guys we've targeted. I don't want that but I am not feeling the heat. 1 Vladifan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeftWinger 4,963 Report post Posted June 23, 2012 Well to sum it up, it was fun to watch these kids realize a dream. Awesome for the parents to see all there sacrifices for 17/18 years pay off...Congrats to them all! Disappointed in Holland today...in the end, will he say Brunner was our draft day pick up?

HockeytownRules19 902 Report post Posted June 23, 2012 The Suter to Pitt rumor died... It looks like Yandle to Pitt is extremely close via twitter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xtrememachine1 795 Report post Posted June 23, 2012 Rumor on twitter is that Pittsburgh is looking into trading for Suters rights. LGW will be set on fire if that happens They can trade for his rights all they want, he already said he doesn't want to play in the East. I mentioned in another post, the Pens have 7 free agents next year, one of which is Crosby, freeing up a couple million in cap space doesn't give them the ability to go on a spending spree. 1 Vladifan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xtrememachine1 795 Report post Posted June 23, 2012 How much was Michalek making? I dont think enough to clear up the space for either of those two.. He's making $4 mil. Which means the Pens have $14 mil in cap space. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
