It appears as though Monster isn't ready to come back any time soon. Unless Detroit is willing to dress McCollum as full time backup until his return, I'd like to see the Wings go out and snag Brian Boucher.
Very dependable backup with solid stats. With Dan Ellis assuming the backup role in Carolina, the Hurricanes had no more use for him and dealt him back to the Flyers, who immediately assigned him to the minors.

Well, I guess no one agreed with your proposal. 
Must mean everyone feels good about McCollum.

~shudder~
When I saw Howard go down last night, all I could think about was "Oh god, I hope they call Mrazek up if this is long term..." Fortunately, Howie got back up, but I have precisely 0% confidence in McCollum being serviceable in even a backup role. I get that he's battled back a bit since Mrazek showed up to steal his job down in GR, but I just don't see him being anything more than a 1B Minor Leaguer.
Maybe each of my fingers is an undulating shrimp! It's a world of possibilities.
Money on the board: Playoffs
$5 for a series win.

$5 for a series sweep.

$2 per short-handed goal.
$2
$10 if/when someone knocks off the Pens (and an extra $5 if its the Red Wings in the finals).

42 years in Detroit! Time to spend the rest in paradise!

I think if.McCollum takes a poop, forget getting a goalie, just bring up M-Raz...he could possibly steal Jimmy's job..
Yes that is my nickname for him M-Raz.
I like Petr Piper.

CO: Hey, Ken! What's up?
KH: Um.. well.. this is kinda awkward. Um, are you busy for the next few months?
CO: We tried this before and then I had to bail Hasek's ass out in Nashville. Remember that? *rubs Stanley Cup ring*
KH: Um, yeah. Well, you see, we signed...
CO: (interrupting) A guy who's injury prone?
KH: Yes, and you see the guy on the bench, well.. LGW forums have no confidence in him.
CO: Still trolling that place?
KH: Yes, it's a guilty pleasure - you know, like watching Honey Boo Boo.
CO: Whatever. I'll pick up Drapes and Malts and I'll be there in 30.
KH: Um, Chris, about Kirk and Kris. We kind of have a *mumbling* log jam at forward. We like our team. We kicked the tires but no one was available.
CO: *sharply* What?
KH: Nothing. See you in a bit.
