#2181315 I think we're going to win it all next season

Posted by Red Wings Addict on 31 May 2011 - 02:14 PM

I guess it kind of felt like a while since we had a blueadams lines thread.  Nice little relapse I guess.

This series makes me think, "God I can't wait for the draft."


#2180570 Draft Talk

Posted by Red Wings Addict on 28 May 2011 - 12:54 AM

An article on RWC  about Gustav Nyquist where Jimmy Nill said, “Statistically, any player  below the third round is not supposed to make the NHL" sparked my  curiosity about forwards selected after the 3rd round who scored 40  points or more, which to me says they at least spent time in a top-six  role.

#2179580 Ken Holland: Open to trade to replace Rafalski

Posted by Red Wings Addict on 25 May 2011 - 01:28 PM

When you lose a guy like Rafi you probably can't afford to not be open to a trade.


#2179575 Brian Rafalski announces retirement after 11 NHL seasons

Posted by Red Wings Addict on 25 May 2011 - 01:23 PM

He's thanked and mentioned Nicklas Lidström at least five times.


He did?  I didn't hear it from the speech and q&a session on Red Wings TV online.

EDIT:  Oh wait...  I think I get it?  He thanked God many times and Nick Lidstrom is God?  I see what you did there?


#2179387 Will Nicklas Lidstrom Retire?

Posted by Red Wings Addict on 25 May 2011 - 01:03 AM

If Nick hangs 'em too I'm looking for the nearest open bar.

f*** off Sharks...  

And now?

f*** off Canucks.


#2179167 Brian Rafalski announces retirement after 11 NHL seasons

Posted by Red Wings Addict on 24 May 2011 - 04:31 PM

I'm not sure if the Wings need to look for a Rafalski replacement.  

I think the Wings hope that Kronwall feels a little more urgency to step up as the new #2 offensive dman, takes another significant step forward and then his production will help fill some of the gap missing from Rafalski's offense.  

In that sense, what they might look for is a dman to produce 38-43 points that Kronwall did as he was the #3 dman, which makes guys like Ehrhoff and Bieksa look like some really ideal options right now.


#2178920 Brian Rafalski announces retirement after 11 NHL seasons

Posted by Red Wings Addict on 24 May 2011 - 01:51 AM

The official word is that he hasn't fully decided yet.  Or hasn't made it official.  The word on the street, however, is that he's done.

How many people in here are holding out on the slim chance that he won't retire?  

It may not be the most popular opinion on here but you can count me as one who hopes that his body somehow magically re-strengthens itself for one more solid season.  

So that's one.  Anyone else?
