    Red Wings won't pursue David Clarkson

    Nah. But to say that the team is regressing with all these promising youngsters in the pipeline isn't what I would say. I like that Holland isn't interested in overpaying free agents and get handcuffed by the cap but wants to build the team slowly and surely through the draft to make sure that they stay competitive for years to come.

    Bullpoop. All the youngsters in the team will be better the next season than they were last season.

    Report: Red Wings out on Lecavalier - signs with Philly 5@4.5 per

    Or could it be that Holland offered him the same but Lecavalier just wanted to go Philadelphia? No, it can't be. We all know that every free agent first wants to go to Detroit and if Holland bungles it up like he always does they start talking to other teams.

    The way Lecavalier has played the last few years $5M for five years is too much. Maybe for two years but not five. Lecavalier knows he'll get it somewhere so he's asking it. This is the cap world. In a few years it'll most likely turn out to be a dumb contract. You don't build your team by overpaying players who are on the decline but by underpaying young players who are on the upswing or veterans who can provide good grit and experience.

    Red Wings cut ties with Tom McCollum

    They way he played I think he needs to get much better to make the NHL.

    Finnish club Jokerit moving to KHL

    When I was a kid in the mid-90's Jokerit was to me like Red Wings is now with a huge rivalry with TPS (that was like Penguins and their star Saku Koivu was like Crosby). A lot has changed since then. I don't care that much. I feel bad for their fans though.

    Jonathan Ericsson - should we consider trading him?

    Iffity schmiffity. You sound a bit like my mother who makes up these scenarios in her head and starts worrying about them in advance. You can start worrying when Ericsson actually demands the $5M+/year contract.

    Finnish club Jokerit moving to KHL

    This is quite weird. I wouldn't be surprised to see their arena attendance drop as the team is leaving behind all their rivalries. The league is old and Jokerit is an old team and now they're basically destroying all the traditions. I don't think people will be that interested in supporting their team to win some unknown teams in a league that's based in another country.

    Saddledome Under Water

    I wonder if this is just God's way of saying that there's too much diving in the NHL nowadays. The way teams like Sharks and Canucks play you'd think their arenas were flooded too.

    Grand Rapids Griffins Win Calder Cup! 5-2 win in game 6

    You are both forgetting Lashoff.
  12. Yeah and on top of that they beat them twice in their building. Griffies have now a great chance to win the Cup at home.
  13. Haha. Funny stuff with Panik coming back from the dressing room to penalty box and right back off again.
  14. Griffins have scored on almost every third shot they've taken (6/19).
  15. Well there was a goal that went undetected and it took three mins until next stoppage came and referees had the change to video review it.

    Mike Babcock Chainsaw Commercial

    Yeah, the commercial's not believable at all. Babcock would just stare the forest down. No use for a chainsaw.

    # 51 JOKE

    It's still 3-2 so wipe your tears and man up. Think of what Steve Yzerman would do if he was a member of this forum. First he would break all his fingers and then through pain he would write a positive post. That's leadership.
