Kenny's in trouble, and needs our help...Looks as though we'll have our work cut out for us...To the 'Goon Moblie'!
 

I call shotgun

Congrats to the Griffs.

Awesome game tonight. The crowd was rowdy as hell.

Can't wait to see Tatar in Detroit full-time. Guy always seems to have an extra step on the defense.

 
We're the softest team with him too.  
 
People need to stop pretending like our 4th liners are somehow more talented than gritty players who fight.  This isn't the 2002 Wings.   Our 4th line was a joke most of the season.  That's why Babcock had Sammy playing center on the 4th line at one point in the playoffs.  Too many throwaway players there.  

I just don't understand how people call for Tootoo to get bought out, then advocate for Emmerton on the 4th line. Tootoo is far more valuable than Emmerton. I don't mind guys like Miller and Eaves, but you're right, they're not the best 4th liners out there.

 
Tootoo had the same amount of points as Drew Miller last season.  In two fewer games.  And Miller was a -8.  
 
Yet most posters here would rather have Drew Miller on the 4th line?  Why?  Just because he kills penalties?  We have like 8 forwards who can kill penalties.  We have no one who has any balls to fight more than once or twice a season.  

For some reason, some people consider Tootoo "one-dimensional" just because he fights. His offensive capabilities are overlooked or blatantly ignored by some on here.

I don't see why we can't have Miller AND Tootoo on the 4th line. I've grown to like Miller. Emmerton is the weak link and should be shipped out, in my opinion.

As I've said before, we're the softest team in the league without Tootoo.

So, who will they overpay to be their goaltender?  They can't possibly be rolling with Steve Mason as their #1.

That's a good question. Possibly Niklas Backstrom?
