#1991832 CBC's Hotstove: Lidstrom to determine future within 7 days

Posted by Doggy on 31 May 2010 - 03:13 PM

At the time he signed the contract that expired just now his market value was 8.5 or something so 7.45 was 1 million hometown discount (he was a norris winning 65-80pts D).. his value now..49pts last season no norris nomination decent +/-... around 6million?.. so 1million hometown discount...=5Million.. done deal! kthxbye

Defensemen with a cap hit of between $6.5m and $5.6m in 09/10:
Dion Phaneuf - $6.5m
Wade Redden - $6.5m
Ed Jovanovski - $6.5m
Kimmo Timonen - $6.3m
Brian Rafalski - $6.0m
Bryan McCabe - $5.75m
Lubomir Visnovski - $5.6m

Wrong again. kthxbai.


#1987914 Good old Regular Season Joe

Posted by Doggy on 21 May 2010 - 02:39 PM

it's not all about stats,



haha, not ridiculous - normal

and Thornton has NOT been their best player when it matters, so your opinion is moot.
v. Chicago
2GP 0G 1A 1PT -4

Hate to butt-in but I found this ironic.

I found Bob McKenzie's comments after Game 2 interesting. "I thought Thornton played well, Heatley and Marleau need to deliver more."

Honestly, I've trashed Thornton so much over the years for his patheticness come playoffs, but he really has been so much better this playoff season and has been their best, most consistent player. IMO, it's no contest.


#1987596 Good old Regular Season Joe

The point is, when the team needs him to take over and win a game or series, he is yet to prove he can and through the first 2 games against Chicago, he has just proven his choke status...

So, your contention is that because he can't single-handedly beat the Chicago Blackhawks, he's a choker. Them's some high standards.

The Sharks beat the Wings because their top line didn't have to do it all. No team wins a Cup with one line.

I also think Thornton has been their best player since the Avs series.

Quebecers are not Canadians ;)

Not all Habs fans are Quebecois, and that mentality is slowly dying from generation to generation.


#1980234 Luongo Not the Answer for Vancouver

Posted by Doggy on 08 May 2010 - 08:29 PM

Vancouver's a young team. They have plenty of time to win the Cup. This isn't their last chance. Seems like people are talking like it is.


#1921055 Am I the only one who finds this ridiculous ?

Posted by Doggy on 21 March 2010 - 01:53 PM

Osgood wasnt amazing last year in the playoffs he made the saves he needed to make. and our D cleared his thousands of rebounds.

Lol WTF?? Is your join date also the same time you started watching hockey?

Sigh. How I miss them.

That's actually a really well-written piece for a blog I gotta say.


#1887658 after deadline question....

As far as I know, there are no waivers after the trade deadline.

No, the trade deadline is for trades.

Waivers is applicable until the day after the regular season or thereabouts IIRC. Regardless, nothing changes after March 3 with regards to call-ups.

how so? At this stage Forsberg is way better than Fedorov.

Are you serious? Did you read his post at all?

That's not debatable.



This probably is.  As GS&T mentioned, there's nothing wrong with a face wash or shove to show that you don't appreciate the hacks and whacks on your goaltender.  It's part of hockey and always has been.  As he mentioned these will usually go un-penalized.  The players on this team don't do so.  Maybe it's choice or maybe it's the type of hockey they grew up playing; that being said, perhaps they don't know how to stand up for their goalie the way most teams do in the NHL.  That's a matter of opinion on which way is most appropriate.  Either way, the way this team is playing, a little emotion or fire wouldn't hurt.

That's what I'm talking about. That's what gets undermanned or undertalented teams over the top. They play with fire and passion. IMO, it's a show of character and pride and I wish I saw more of it.

Just laughing at you for making stuff up.

I never said that.  You said this.  Others can post about whatever they like.  If I disagree, sometimes I'm going to say so, just like in this thread.  If you don't like it, that's not my problem.

Interesting. The closing sentence in your original post, of "Quit trying to make the team be somebody they aren't" seems to be telling me to not make threads like this because I'm trying to make them something they aren't. It seems you're oblivious to how hypocritical you're being.

I, as well as others have found a way to ignore you and allow you to continue on with your incessant whining all over this board about any and all things as irritating as it is. Can you not allow me to have my opinion that the Wings should stand up for themselves? Can I not make a thread with my opinion without you complaining about making the thread of my opinion? I believe it's within the forum rules.

Because I can post and make points on whatever I feel like given the forum rules, just like you did in making this thread.  If I feel like saying something is like beating a dead horse or is a dead weight topic, I'm going to say it.

Right. So you can post about what you like, but others can't if you don't agree. Got it.
