  1. Jagr's groin is made of paper maché. I remember him constantly have groin issues while with the rags and caps. I'm surprised this is the first 'flare up' he's had so far. Unfortunately, at his age, I wouldn't be surprised if this was a lingering issue that bugs him all season.

  2. Awesome if true. I like Coburn and it's good to lock him up.

    I like him too Brel... but then I freakin' hate him at times too! I just wish he'd settle in and stop with the split-personality ****. Sometimes he's got such a mean streak and can one-time the puck like a beast. Then for a few weeks, he'll be timid as a mouse and can't hit the net worth a damn.

    I just like to remind myself that we traded Zhitnik for him!! Silly Atlanta.

  3. I think the important thing to remember here is that these are kids... not professionals. That hit was disgusting to me and could've put a kids quality of life in jeopardy.

  4. Well, he's honoring the cheap contract that the Wings originally signed/waived him with. From what I've seen, they've been rotating 3 goalies.

    Tonight it was Nabokov/Montoya... but I've seen Dipietro on the ice as well.

    It's the Isles... who knows what the hell they've got going on.

  5. Yeah, I'm not happy with faceoffs but isn't it a little premature to be thinking about aquisitions or trades at the deadline just over faceoff % ?

    All I know is that 'we' are a 'puck possession' team. And it's hard to be a puck possession team when you're chasing the puck more often than not.

    Something's gotta change. Either these guys dedicate themselves to get better at draws, or a hired gun has to come in.

    I'm not too big on having a game 7 defensive zone faceoff in OT with any of these guys at the dot.

  6. Everyone on the team needs to get better. Bringing in yet another center isn't going to solve the problem. Especially one who is better at faceoffs, and worse at everything else.

    Hey... just saying is all... just saying. Are you doubting that this is what'll happen?

    I seem to remember Primeau being good on faceoffs... what about Roenick? Is this just a "Lavvy" thing?? Maybe having Brind'amour spoiled him and he thinks that faceoffs are just something you have or haven't.
