    Winnipeg Jets' New Logo

    I like the new logos but I'll admit I love the old logos.

    No, No, NO! Jagr interested in Detroit.

    A dirt cheap Jagr is better than Hudler, even if it is just a band-aid to give us another year to replace Hudler. Either way Hudler has to go.

    Never seen these before

    I have Chris Chelios, Brendan Shanahan, Sergei Fedorov, Nick Lidstrom, and Steve Yzerman. Cool collection.

    Did Crosby earn your respect?

    Sometimes the truth hurts.

    Team USA Appreciation Thread

    Team USA stepped up and delivered at the Vancouver Games and Americans should definately appreciate their hard work.

    Loyalty questions for Canadian Wings fans

    No loyalty questions for me. It's the name on the front, not the name on the back when it come to winning. I've always disliked Brett Hull but when he was on the Red Wings I cheered and hoped for his success and the same goes for Team Canada.

    It's time for payback from 2002!

    YZERMAN IS GOLD (At least I hope he is! Go Canada Go!) I celebrated with Molson Canadian and some Pizza Hut in '02 and I plan on doing the same '10

    What do you plan to do when the Olympic break goes on?

    As a Canadian, I've been waiting for the 2010 Olympics since our utter failure in Turin. I can't deny that I am giddy like a school girl thinking about watching Canada's best play on our own soil.....

    #1 Hockey Country

    I remember during the lockout, Canadians were just drifting from place to place, virtually zombies in their frozen homeland, searching in vain for hockey. Alas, without Jake Ryan's (US)NHL, Canadians were to abandon all hope of finding great hockey to watch...... oh wait, that wasn't the case at all - because hockey is everywhere in Canada. My local OHL London Knights always draw a nice crowd, my hometown Chatham (Pop. 44000) Maroons always play to a decent crown and that's Ontario's Western Junior 'B' hockey... There is also the London Nationals here in the Forest City as well. The lockout proved that whether there is NHL or not, Canada has an unquenchable thirst for their homegrown sport. Everyday, as a typical Canuck, I go into work and talk to co-workers about every NHL game to night before...not just the games our teams played in, we then talk OHL, then Western Junior B.....everyday.....

    If Team Canada wins Gold in Vancouver the whole world will see a hockey country.

    LGW is Pro-Enforcer: The Results are In.

    I voted on the pro-enforcer side of the poll. Not because of statistics, hockey theory or an unhappiness with how things are going for the team but because I just love seeing someone in a Red Wings sweater punching someone not wearing one in the face.

    Duthie, McGuire, & McKenzie

    It's just considered to be incorrect do to the fact that the prefix and suffix denote the meaning to have a double negative. Unfortunately for the spelling-gestapo, once a word is entered into the Oxford English dictionary it is generally considered to have a permanent place in the language. And irregardless has been there quite snugly since the early 1920's. Similar to D'oh! made famous by Homer Simpson. How do I know this? I had this same argument with a professor who gave me bonus marks for proving to him that irregardless is indeed a word, irregardless of whether or not it is correct.

    Does anyone else here put up a shrine?

    I have a year-round shrine, a permanent little place used for private Detroit Red Wings worshiping and conjuring of the spirits of Red Wings greats long past out of the realm of Hockeytown..... :octo: :octo:

    Duthie, McGuire, & McKenzie

    That's right James Duthie, Pierre McGuire and Bob McKenzie have all chosen the Red Wings to be the back-2-back Champions once again. Personally I hate the curse of sportscasters picking your team to win it all but at least TSN has decided to show the Wings some love, finally. (Even though they've been relegated to TSN2.) GO WINGS!!! :octo: :octo: Edit: There, I changed my post, that way all of you so offended by my use of irregardless can go back to bitching about something else. As a further suggestion, if you're so concerned about spelling and grammar perhaps you should take the time to edit wikipedia, they could use your help and your keen eyes.
