#2351222 Mike Ilitch's Apearance

Posted by 55fan on 05 February 2013 - 07:36 AM

Really, people?  This is how you show gratitude and respect for the guy who took a heartbreak of wreckage, turned it around, and gave us four more Stanley Cups and made us the envy of the league?

 

Not to mention whatever he's done with the Tigers and for the city of Detroit and his charitable contributions.

 

I hope some day you get old and see how you like it.

 

Kids these days.

#2320124 Flyers sign Weber to offer sheet: 14y/$110m ($56m 1st 4yrs)

Posted by FlashyG on 19 July 2012 - 02:42 AM

He made significant offers to both of the top FA's available this offseason, they chose to play at home over joining the Wings. He is after the next biggest FA available and is waiting to hear back, and had preliminary talks with the #4 FA, who appears to be waiting to see what happens with Doan.

On top of all that he's had significant trade talks with Nashville for Weber, with Phoenix for Yandle, and even attempted to get Nash from Columbus.

He can't make teams trade with him if they don't want too, and paying extra just for the sake of making a major change is more likely to land us in the lottery rather than the playoffs.

I'm not sure what you're expecting, but this has been the most active Ken Holland has been in an offseason in 15 years.


#2306407 Brad Stuart's rights traded to San Jose

Don't let the door hit you on the ass Stuart. I don't feel bad for anyone who makes multiple million dollars a year in a occupation that is not family friendly and then complains about not getting to see their family. If he really wanted to see them more he'd just retire.


#2301082 Babcock and Holland want to keep Homer.

Posted by Echolalia on 13 May 2012 - 07:46 PM

This isn't just about being loyal to Homer, nor is it just about trying to get Lidstrom to re-sign.  Parise and Suter (who came out and said the next team he plays for ideally will be his last) will be following this news if they're looking to see how they'll be treated at the end of their careers.  If I'm Holland, Homer is getting a contract offer this year, because I want Parise and Suter, and any other potential long-term signing to see that we take care of our players.  This is a trump card the Wings' brass has built up for years.  This very well could be the year that we reap the benefits.

Homer stays.


#2292449 Trade Zets /Dats and Franzen

It's time to go with the youth and get bigger and stronger. Bert,Homer and Lidstrom all need to retire. Hudler needs to go play in midget league.
Howard needs another goalie to push him for the starting job.

#2284102 WCQF Game 2 GDT : Red Wings 3, at Nashville Predators 2

Side note to Shea Weber:  It's Friday the 13th.  You might want to avoid anything associated with the number 13.

Just sayin'.


#2283311 WCQF Game 1 GDT: Red Wings 2 at Predators 3

Posted by Dirty Dangle on 12 April 2012 - 09:02 AM

I'm not nearly as worried about this series today as I was yesterday before the game started.  The Preds were on their heels for large stretches of the game and benefited from a couple of extremely lucky bounces.  Wings take Game 2 and steal home ice.
