#2420837 More Filppula News

Posted by Crymson on Today, 04:28 PM

Link to article.

 


Dreger says that Pavel Datsyuk re-signing with Detroit indicates that Valtteri Filppula will not re-sign with the Red Wings, and Dreger believes that the 29-year-old Filppula wants as much as $5.5 million for as long as an EIGHT-year contract, or a least a seven-year deal;

 

I'd say that's that. I don't know what Filppula is smoking.

This is longer than I expected.  I really thought he'd only want to do a year or two at a time at his age.  But, come on, we all know that real reason that he's staying in Detroit is so he can keep Dr. Rahmani.

 

Thrilling day in RedWingsLand.  And the people rejoice.

This is GREAT!  Such a unique talent and great all-around player.  It hasn't even sunk in that I could get to watch him for longer than just next year.

 

Igor Larionov was traded to Detroit in 1995 at Age 35.  Think about that!  I remember the radio stations blasting them for picking up "just another old guy" at the time - and think about how much he contributed to Detroit through 2003.  No offense to The Professor, but Datsyuk is almost twice the NHL player that Igor ever got the chance to be.  Such a cerebral player and in excellent physical condition.  I've always gotten the sense that he could be productive in the NHL long after he "lost a step".

#2419656 What would you give up for Malkin?

Posted by Z Winged Dangler on 13 June 2013 - 10:00 AM

Wow. $9m+ per year. I don't think they'll be winning any Cups soon.

They won their cup in 2009.  They like to win every 20 years.  Hopefully they go more than that, or just never win again, but Ray "GM of the year" Shero apparently didn't get the memo that the cap is going down 6 million next year and you can't blow 18.2 on 2 players and still have enough depth to win the cup, hence Boston's sweep of them.  The B's have 4 lines, the Pens don't.  I'm actually quite happy the Penguins have handcuffed themselves though as I have intolerable hatred for that organization as a whole.

Steve Yzerman is a level headed individual and he should be the NHL commissioner.  Maybe then the NHL and hockey in general will be in the spotlight for positive reasons.

 

I love Stevie.  I really do.  But I don't think even he is strong enough to take on the evil that job involves. 




#2418788 2013 Stanley Cup Finals - Boston Bruins vs. Chicago Blackhawks

Posted by Dabura on 09 June 2013 - 07:10 AM

Bruins just swept the most dangerous team in hockey, limiting them to two goals. Two goals.

 

We almost beat the 'hawks in less than seven games.

 

I like Boston's chances.
