@hydr5 That's the funniest comment I've ever seen. You think the Red Wings are done because one of our players is retiring? If you failed to notice Lidstroms stats for this year, you can see he's in tip-top shape for games played, goals, assists, and +/-. Arguably the best defense-men playing in the NHL right now. Franzen is nowhere near done.. Might I have to redirect you to February 2nd, 2011 where he scored 5 goals in a single game? Please tell me who has done that this year..
@Majoritiez I don't think you understand the concept of "injury", "age", and "retirement".
Lidstrom? He was minus for the season the first time in his career. It doesn't matter how many times a defenseman can score or assist, if he can't keep the puck out of his own net when hes expected to...
Rafalski is done because HE RETIRED.
"The Mule" isn't tough enough to play in the NHL anymore.
Why don't the Red Wings just move their club to Europe?
Do me a favor and try to remember making those comments 10 months from now. " Why don't the Red Wings just move their club to Europe?" So making the playoffs for twenty years straight, and winning 4 cups in that time span(including one just three years ago) isn't good enough to stay in the NHL?
Have you already forgotten all of the "they're too old" "they're not tough enough" nonsense that was said just after the new CBA?
@mikael3696 The NHL was made into the perfect place for the Red Wings after the CBA.
Lidstrom is too old. This will be his last season and it will not be his best. He did not deserve the Norris. He won it purely because he is old. As a defensive defencemen, he had his worst season of his career. I've already stated this.
If the Red Wings were a company, I wouldn't invest in them because they have nothing new coming out. Its just the same old product, which is becoming very predictable
He also led Detroit in ice time at 23:28 per contest. "Those are numbers that still leave his contemporaries in awe"-NHL Sports Writer. No Lidstrom was not given the award HE EARNED IT!!
He always leads the Wings in ice time. So did Chara for his team and Weber for his. He got the award because he gave the puck to Datsyuk or Zetterberg more than Chara and Weber? Chara, who mind you I loathe, deserved it 10x more than Lidstrom. Lets analyze that: Lidstrom had 55 even strength points and he was -2, while Chara had 38 even strength points and +33. Chara earned it through his play, but it was given to Lidstrom. Chara was cheated.
@hydr5 yeah, they're done. They're always old players hanging on to the NHL and need to retire, and THEY ALWAYS MAKE IT TO THE PLAYOFFS, SO QUIT FUCKING HATING! GO COMMENT ON YOUR OVECHKIN CLIP, SO YOU AND YOUR LOSER FAN FRIENDS OF LOSERS CAN ALL GO CIRCLE JERK EACH OTHER!!!!!
@Kluckad They make it to the playoffs, sure. But then in the playoffs is much more physical and all the europes get injured. I'm also not hating, I'm stating facts. I'd circle jerk my group of friends, but your mom wants to do it herself. Shes very insistent.
@hydr5 You think the Wings will get worse as time goes. You think as they get older they slow down. It's just wishful thinking. The Wings will always be one of the elite teams in the NHL.
P.S. That 'beyond done' guy just won another Norris Trophy.
@packers256 because hes old. Good job. Still a minus in the league and winning the Norris doesn't mean your club win the cup. YAY LIDSTROM (should retire)
Feb. 9 Mule's back. Can't wait. He'll help the second Power play unit a lot and just bring a different feel to a team that will hopefully start getting dominate again.
fuck hossa, johan franzen is a godly man, who plays his best hockey in the playoffs, unlike hossa who cost detroit the fucking stanley cup, franzen even took out crosby and we still couldnt score, cant wait till franzen comes back nice and fresh for the playoffs
wings are done, rafalski is done. lidstrom is beyond done. franzen is done.
