    • So......the Players poll came out, and guess which player was voted as "The most difficult to play against", "The hardest player to take puck from", "most difficult to stop", "Smartest", "Cleanest", and "Toughest to play against"?

      Hints........it wasn't a Canadian, and Don Cherry wasn't allowed to vote....

      • Aww, don't pick on Don. He's my favorite hockey blowhard. A veritable Canadian Fashionista as well...

        • I used to love Don. When he wasn't convinced he was the final arbiter on everything hockey. When he wasn't a xenophobe. When he had some sartorial discretion. When Bleu was alive......;-)

            • Interesting poll of NHL players. Nick Lidstrom was also voted best role model. Nice to see Darren Helm crack the top 5 of a couple categories, too. The Red Wings were voted 2nd most desired team to play for, one percentage point behind Chicago. The top six favorite arenas to play in are all of the Original Six teams.

              • Datsyuk out two weeks following minor knee surgery.

                Fuck.

                • I don't think the home winning streak is surviving this one. I guess better to take care of this now than in the playoffs.

                    Exactly; he couldn't have waited til after Thursday (against Van) though?

                    • The streak is fun.....but really meaningless. Only 7 teams who have won the President's Trophy have gone on to win the Stanley Cup......so even that means squat. Peaking at the right time, hot goaltending, and staying healthy are paramount. Dats will be back, and better.

                      Not sure about the Quincy trade, though.....

                      • Yeah, can't see giving up a 1st round pick (albeit late first round, not a particularly talented/deep draft) for a guy who played 13 games in 3 years in his first stint with the Wings.

                        • Sure wish this team could figure out how to win more consistantly on the road. Losing to the slumping Blackhawks 2-1 really lets the air out

                          • Chicago's actually playing really well again (won 4 in a row), but yes, the Wings look like a totally different team on the road.
                            Howard stood on his head; was absolutely terrific tonight, but the rest of the team (I'm looking at you, Ericsson and Kindl) let him down.

                            Oh well, at least Vancouver lost too.

                            • Red Wings just broke a 1-1 tie with a goal at the 13:52 mark of the 3rd Canucks have been playing them tough, last I heard Vancouver had a wide margin in shots-on-goal, but we now have a great chance of seeing the home win streak kept alive, GO WINGS!
