is Dekeyser that good!?

you lot make me laugh, we played a great road game against a team that was looking like they wanted a shootout from the puck drop. what do you think their goalie is gunna do eh ? just let us score? hes paid to stop the puck the same as Jimmy. As far as the shootout goes its a complete crapshoot. Id sooner they play another 5 min ot 3 on 3 as the pen shot saga is a garbage way to win or lose games. You should win as a team and loose as a team, not this one on one crap.

Anyway, win the next 3 home games and we'll be in the dance. Our D is looking just fine lately and if Kenny gets his head outta of his ass and signs us 2 bonifide scoring forwards we'll be set next season as well.

Sproul played his first game for the Griffs tonight and the opposing play by play guys were drooling over him every shift he was out, and has he got a shot from the point or what! they were also biggin up Pulkkinen on his debut as well, as to where the Redwings find these guys. Future looks good.

Danny and Smith could be the perfect match for the Wings future 2nd pairing.

I still think we will make the playoffs by the skin of our teeth, but Kenny has really got to get us a scoring winger and a bonifide #1 D

for next season. Plenty of effort tonight but we just dropped a place in the standings and teams around us have games in hand. We

need a least 5 wins from our remaining games to make the post season.

if this aint showing kenny the lack of firepower we have i dont know what will. No Z and you take dats out then boy oh boy are we in trouble down the line. cant understand why when we know Z is out they scratch Nyqvist when he could have been given a more offensive role.

Outplayed in the first 20 when it looked like boys against men, but due credit to the guys for picking it up and playing much

better the last 40. What some on here fail to realise or admit is that the Hawks are a very good side and we stayed with them.

The shotout is just a who gets lucky day. If Mule hadnt have hit the post its all over at 2-0 with 4 min to play. I just hope we either

get some forward back on Pavs line wholl help him more, or trade for one. Abs and Cleary are grinders doing a good job shutting

down the opp line but not creating as much going forward as youd want one of your top 2 lines to do. Point in the bag thou.

its a 2 edge sword really, Q leads the d with a +10 but hasnt put up a single point yet.

one guy that seems to get missed, Tvrdon. If he can stay injury free the kid will be a beast of a power forward.

what gets me is any other NHL team that has a 6'4" 200LB RH shot blueliner whos ave 1.5 pts pg in the minors

would have him up as soon as he is eligble and give him a real good look and chance to prove himself in the bigs.

how many of you reckon Sproul will get that in Detroit?

we do have a lot of good blueliners in our system but i doubt any of them will get fast tracked onto the Wings roster.

Smith should have been up a year earlier than he was, a whole season with the master before he retired would have

done wonders for him but we all know the story there.

for me next year on the roster from the prospects pool;

Tatar

Nyqvist

Jarnkrok

Pulkkinen

Sheahan

Andersson

Sproul.

UFA's to let go next year;

White

Huskins

Cleary

Miller

Mursak

Trade Out

Eaves

Emmerton

Trade out this year

Filpuula Kindl and Nestrasil for the best D we can get from it.

_{so lets get this right, the Flames are bottom of the whole league with 1 win have leaked an ave of 4 goals a game and until today had scored 16 goals}

_{in total..........just wondering thats all}

sorry Jimmy but you should have had that one

Dan DeKeyser anyone?

wings lose with same effort as sat, Kenny fires Babs and then Mr I fires Kenny, calls Stevie Y in as new GM and appoints The Professor as coach.

Igor then signs Sergei Mozyakin, Ilya Nikulin, Oleg Piganovich and Danis Zaripov to help Pav form a new Red 5. Stevie Y then releases/buys out anyplayer he see's fit too.

Only one of the teams you listed actually have 9  d-men signed, but don't let the facts get in the way of starting a thread.
