Being a poor, deprived Wings fan living in central Texas, I have only been able to attend 4 Wings' games in my life, all against the Stars in big D. 1 win, 2 losses, and a tie. Anyway, I was wondering how many of you guys and gals have been to a Wings' cup-clinching game in '97, '98, '02, or '08? Especially the first one, since that must have been the most remarkable of the bunch in ending the 42 year drought.
For those of you that were at one of those games, what was it like?
Apologies in advance if this has been covered previously, but didn't see it anywhere else
Looking at our current roster, looks like we have only 8 players remaining from the '08 Cup run(Pav,Z,Mule,Sammy,Cleary,Helm,Flip,&Kronner) and just one other who has a ring in Miller(though I don't count him so much as he played only 3 games during Anaheim's run) and Kronner is the only d-man
I was thinking that perhaps instead of trying to land some big name d-man in a trade where we would likely have to overpay, maybe we should be trying to sign a free agent veteran d-man to help out the rest of the defense, b/c also right now Kronner is the oldest member of the group at 31, with the avg. age at 26.8, so we're as young as we have been on D for quite some time
This is of course assuming that our current d-men perform at least near expectations, and if that happens, we could benefit from a guy like Kubina, Spacek, Rozsival, Hannan, etc.
Y'know a guy that can help provide leadership to the younger guys both on and off the ice
