The problem with Raffi are his turnovers and lack of size for his price tag - not saying I agree, I'm just saying I can see where some of the negativity comes from... with that said, I think he is GREAT for what he does, as you stated, and I really think both he and Lids would benefit GREATLY by splitting them up and putting a physical counterpart with them, not to mention, I thought Stuart and Rafalski complemented one another VERY well....

I completely agree with this. I think his play for the U.S. showed that when Rafalski is relied on heavily, he thrives. He almost respects Lidstrom TOO much and worries about getting the puck to him more. It also likely gets him into a mindset where he can screw up and Lids will be there to make-up for it anyway. I agree on the Lids-Kronwall and Stuart-Rafalski pairings 100%.

Brett Lebda's last, and only productive move as a member of the Red Wings.

#1996394 Lebda to KHL

Posted by Jesusberg on 08 June 2010 - 03:29 PM

Looks like it was our Lebda.

http://blog.mlive.com/snapshots/2010/06/soon-to-be-former_red_wing_bre.html

From the article:

"Dynamo Minsk carried on negotiations with Detroit defenseman Brett Lebda. The American could become the fifth legionary defenseman on the Belorussian KHL club."

I read that as "legendary" and water came out of my nose.

What is a conventional Red Wing?

He has bowed legs and trusts his eyes to Dr. Rahmani.

#1995435 The right way to be a prospect of the Wings

Posted by Jesusberg on 06 June 2010 - 07:40 PM

Honestly, I wouldn't even have an issue with Brendan Smith if it didn't happen multiple times. The kid's got tons of talent and it'd be a shame if it got wasted because he got wasted.

#1995409 emmerton and mcgrath

Posted by Jesusberg on 06 June 2010 - 06:47 PM

Emmerton needs to have a better season next year. So far he hasn't shown much to merit getting a spot on the Red Wings in the near future. It would be nice to see him succeed, though. The team could use a 3rd line center.

#1992341 Lidstrom Signs 1-Year Contract Extension

Posted by Jesusberg on 01 June 2010 - 11:44 AM

Show me that clause.

Restricted Free Agents: A player set to become a restricted will become an unrestricted free agent if his current team does not make him a qualifying offer that adheres to the minimum raise policy of the CBA. The deadline to qualify all RFA's is June 29

    * Qualifying Offers: A qualifying offer must include the following minimum raises:
          o Previous salary < $660,000: 10% increase in salary
          o Previous salary < $1,000,000: 5% increase in salary
          o Previous salary > $1,000,000: Match previous season's salary

#1991581 CBC's Hotstove: Lidstrom to determine future within 7 days

Posted by Jesusberg on 30 May 2010 - 08:48 PM

I'm in the middle on this one. Lidstrom has certainly declined offensively, and if the only reason that he gets 6.7+ is because he "must be the highest paid" player on the team... that's ridiculous. I honestly feel that at this point in his career he's worth 5-5.5 million. He's a huge asset to the team, but I'd like him to do them a favor to the team here. As good as Lids has been to Detroit, they've been very good to him as well.

I'm not off my rocker, though, I'm fully aware that once he leaves the team is going to change drastically.
