When I guess on what that magic may be i'm left with an interesting thought, say we do miss the playoffs this year......Remember that new rule? The one that says any team that misses the playoffs is first pick eligible? Paging Tinkerbell,....we need more fairy dust,.....   With the first round pick in the 2013 draft, the Detroit red wings select,............

 

Some kid that they'll bury in the minors for 5 years?

Time to get bigger.

Approved by the Board of Governer's. Basically, it's official. Wings are heading east.

so what you're saying is, and correct me if I am wrong here, that Tatar who has 8 points in 27 nhl games, 7 points in 18 games this season is worth more then Perry who has 214 goals and 453 points in 554 nhl games? right now perry is a ppg, and two years ago he had 50 goals and 98 points, if you think Tatar is worth more then that there is something wrong. I personally wouldn't be opposed to giving up Tatar, Andersson, and a first rounder for perry, he is only 27 and would be amazing on pasha's line

 

I think the question is, would you be willing to give that up for Perry if he comes here, plays 13 regular season games and the Wings miss the playoffs, or make it in and lose in the 1st or 2nd round and then he walks in the offseason? I personally am not big on that idea.

 <----- That's Datsyuk.

Everyone’s Cleary hate should be channeled directly in the Franzen direction. 

 

 

Cleary and Abby are both working hard. Franzen looks like a sailboat in the centre of a lake on the calmest day of the year. No excuse. 

Ericsson has become a beaut, can't rave enough about his play this year. But Kindl... I don't care if he's still developing, he doesn't belong on NHL ice right now.

The ironic thing is that people were saying this 3 years ago about Ericsson.

Dudes are making valid points about over-valuing +/-

No one should be saying that a high +/- should be an automatic ticket to Awesomeland.

BUT, if Quincey was - 11 and Kindl was - 9, this would be used as LGW ammo to have them banished to Suck Island.

I base my opinion on what I see on the ice, and both guys are playing alright.

Makes you wonder where Carlo Coca-Cola will fit in when he comes back?  

 

Don't you worry. He'll soon break his wrist wiping his ass.

@AnsarKhanMLive: Ian White said he was surprised to be a healthy scratch tonight, Said he's frustrated and upset by it.

 

Ian White needs to learn to shut it. He ran his mouth during the lockout. Now he's complaining about being benched.

 

How about this? Stop sucking.

 

Kindl gets whipped, beaten, and benched by Babs all the time. All he says is that he's "dissapointed and has to just keep working hard". Kindl's been better than White btw.

Ansar Khan ‏@AnsarKhanMLive

Babcock said Quincey and Smith are in tonight. White and Huskins are healthy scratches.

 

Scratching White over Kindl or Lashoff is awesome. I'm really happy that Babs made the right decision here.

it is in fact a home game, but i do like it involved in this convo. most important week of the season yet. 2-0-1 would be a great success though these 3.

 

I'd be happy with 1-1-1. 500.

Sproul and Ouellet will spend at least a year in GR. No question.

 
I'd kind of like a 3rd line of Abdelkader-Helm-Clarkson. 

With the way Clarkson is scoring, he'd be a top 6 guy.

Technically, the neutral zone trap is 1-4. Lot's have teams have done this obviously.

 

I have seen Detroit go 0-5 a few times this year too.
