Remaing RFAs to be signed - Jurco, Pulkkinen, Aubry

[LeftWinger 4,959]

back on topic, I sure hope these guys sign soon, I really want to see if Blashill has any magic he can work with those two...

Obviously you guys don't remember squat. It's my friend who skates in a pick up hockey league with one of the trainers, and it wasn't Helm, it was Kindl and Smith that had the character issues, Helm was described as a "Barbie doll" by said trainer. BUT, its not like I hate the guy, I just said he became tradable with the emergence of Sheahan and Glendening. Because Helm was a coveted center at one time and he could bring us a nice return if he were packaged in a deal...sheesh guys, if you are going to blast me on things, at least get it right, what happened to all the looking up of old posts I did? They sure seem to pop up everytime I say that I grew sour on the Franzen deal right away...

But, ya, if you must know, some of the overpaid tradable players that would make room for more cap space and or the kids are indeed Howard, Franzen and Quincey. We have better quality assets already in the system that make way less money. $5M for a backup goalie is outrageous and he will get traded if not at the deadline, then next off season...but of course no one will get traded, we will waive two of Ferraro, Callahan and Andersson and we will get our cap relief that way. Of course since Datsyuk will miss October into November, we already get $7.5M in cap relief come end of training camp. So that works out for us right away.

..and as long as we are keeping score, in addition to my friend Dan who I mentioned above, my friend Jeff used to date Danny D's sister, that is how I learned of him and I work and have known Manny Legace's father-in-law for 20 years at THE major airline in Detroit before the merger as Northwest and now after the merger. His name is Chris (of course I am not saying the last names) and Chris' sister Joy also works with us and I have known her for nearly 25 years. BTW Manny's mother-in-law name? Sandy.

It's hilarious how folks just don't think that people can know people just because they are famous. Another co-worker (former co-worker) has a child that has a rare muscle condition the requires help to even roll over in bed, his name is Rob, we used to call him tumbleweed, another friend by proxy helped him out in purchasing a bed that actually turns his son over every so often automatically, that name? Sergei Fedorov, you may have heard of him. Knowing him through Rob and family, is mostly why I defend him at every turn, especially when it comes to his reputation. BTW, even though I have never met him personally, but Manny's Father/Law is very close personal friends with Chelios, they still hang out from time to time.

In another unrelated yet related topic, where I live now, near Silver Lake Sand Dunes, we have two famous actors and one former NBA player who have summer homes, former Piston Cliff Robinson, everyone's favorite barfly Norm, George Wendt and Dewey Cox himself, John C. Riley. My parents bowl with Uncle Cliffy and have met the other a few times, but I have not had the pleasure to do so...

So, just so we know, this post is here forever so it can be traceable and if anyone needs to refer back to this in order to try to prove something, its all right here.

I just found out I'm doing a surgery rotation with Alex Delvechio's grandson lol (for real). I don't know how closely he follows hockey.

Gordie Howe's son...Dr Murray Howe...read my MRI a few years ago and correctly diagnosed a torn meniscus.

I once punched a kid in the head who slapped bronco mckarts daughter.

It was in middle school, in high school, she could've beat the brakes off of most boys...including me.

No ones talked about the kardashians, there's not enough women, and none of us are dressed flamboyantly enough.

We'll get there someday though.

Kim Kardashian's hinder has it's own gravitational pull. She really plays hell with commercial and private jet traffic around LA

I once met the team doctors by accidentally sitting in their seats that were supposed to be occupied by their friend's brother's second cousin.

Oh the stories we shared...

[kickazz 5,459]

I met Emma Andersson and my life turned upside down.

LeftWinger you sure you don't work for TMZ

[LeftWinger 4,959]

maybe I should, because there's just no way that a commoner could ever know anyone outside of Hazard County. Guess I'll go to farmers only dot com and stick with the poor folk. Not that farmers are poor, but boy they sure can tell a tale! I guess I was put in my place, I dont know anyone...jenny McCarthy?

Met Datsyuk once. He was a D-bag. Don't need to prove it with people I know. I just know.

Ripley's believe it or not.

[LeftWinger 4,959]

an entire thread could be made about dbag players...

My sister's dad's only son used to dirty dance with Patrick Swayze on a bi-weekly basis for years.

You heard it here folks. Save these documents for ur records. It's official.

Wish I knew all the Redwings like Lefty though

My dad's best friends sisters cousins uncle who's aunt married a second cousin of my dads best friends brothers aunt who then divorced a guy who knew a woman who was separated from a woman who knew a guy who cheers for the Red Wings says that he once drank beer with Dan Cleary.

I met the Zetterbeard once. I told him "You're the best captain in the NHL not Toews, nor Dustin Brown"

Zetterbeard then replies to me: "Well I met Toews', sister's husband who knew a guy in Chicago that played junior hockey with Toews' best friend who played pickup hockey with Toews' ex-barber who said that he thought he knew Patrick Kane"

Zetterbeard and I stared at each other for an awkward moment or two.

Then we went our separate ways.

You heard it here first.
