#2339445 Brunner's nickname

Posted by FireCaptain on 11 January 2013 - 10:42 PM

Does he have a habit of bopping field mice on the head?

 

 

How about B. Rabbit, Brunny Rabbit, or Little Brunny Foo Foo?  On second thought it doesn't seem so fearsome after I type it.

Expected to make announcement with team presser soon, had already told team.

 

Tomas, thank you for all the great years! Thanks for taking a beating game in/game out. Thanks for inventing your own language!

Posted by FireCaptain on 21 December 2012 - 05:14 AM

I was at the game in Nashville. Watching it live was a trip (pun intended).

i remember laughing pretty hard at this.... would have been a lot funnier if he managed to put it in though :P

#2335858 Santa says the Maple Leafs suck

Posted by FireCaptain on 11 December 2012 - 01:40 AM

wait.. are you saying Santa's not real?

Every article I have read on this throw the lockout into the equation, even though it was never mentioned by any party.

Also, I was unaware that Paul Bunyun was a insult, in this article they remove the quote of the lady asking Santa if "that was necessary".

This is from the country that just arrested someone last month because he was in public saying Santa is not real.

Fired from an acting job is one thing, arrested for telling the truth is another.




#2335121 Holmstrom appreciation thread

And then it got called back for goaltender interference - yeah, that was wicked!

haha

Favorite memory is that time he screened the goalie on the powerplay, and deflected a Lidstrom shot into the net.  

It was awesome!

Please oh please can the lockout end so that we can get back to hockey so that I don't have to hear about Jordin Tootoo's bear hunting desires?

#2322874 Red Wings Sign Jordin Tootoo to 3-yr deal, $1.9M/yr

Posted by FireCaptain on 29 July 2012 - 08:37 PM

I was going through my stuff on the counter this morning and came across the program from the Preds v. Wings elimination game.

Enjoy a couple Tootoo tidbits, or Toobits, if you will.

#2312239 Red Wings Sign Jordin Tootoo to 3-yr deal, $1.9M/yr

Posted by FireCaptain on 01 July 2012 - 06:31 PM

Wings fans are too hard to please.. For months now, it's been "Sign a Predator! Sign a Predator!"

Now the Wings sign one and everyone's pissed off...



haha


#2308170 Thinking of Buffalo Wings.....

Posted by FireCaptain on 20 June 2012 - 12:14 AM

There are and have been some rumors around that the Sabers are looking for a true C. They have several good young wingers, but have a gapping hole in the middle. They are also a small market team that has to watch its pennies very carefully. We on the other hand have lots of cash and C's. if we load up at the C position, Filppula would be our number 3 C behind Z and Dat. Point is, there could be some deals that benefit both sides here. if Buf really wants to free up cash, Filppula for vaneck comes to mind. In his 7 year career he has averaged 33 goals per season. has decent size as well. Gives us another scoring winger and them a true number 1 type C. They also have 2 1st round picks. So we could try a Filppula for Stafford and their second 21st (IIRC) pick. Point is, they need what we have and we need what they have. Could be a good dancing partner.......


Did you miss the part last year where they got a new Billionaire owner who basically threw his checkbook on the table and said, "I want the Cup?"

They are no longer hindered by the need to pinch pennies.

Don't forget, they signed LAME-o to a 6year/27Mil deal. The new owner is willing to spend money.
They also have $11+Mil in cap space and only 5 players to sign.. http://www.capgeek.c...arts.php?Team=8

Left calf. Needs a little final work after it initially heals, but I'm happy with it. 6 hours on the table = NOT FUN!
