LONG OVERDUE
OT: NHL free agency begins WINGS UPDATE
Even with those two deals the Wings are still about $2M below the cap floor and $17M under the cap. Just crazy.
Tootoo? I hope Red Wings fans have enough sense not to bring those annoying whistles to the Joe.
Michigan Resurgent? Michigan Resurgent!
The beatings will continue until the uniforms improve!
I am unaware of these whistles...what are they and why? Thanks
"Train" whistles that fans would repeatedly toot twice in quick succession - too(t)-too(t) - whenever he was on the ice. Highly annoying.
Kudos to Anthony at the Unconnected Red Wings Blog:
And if ANY of you bring that stupid train whistle to the game, I will END YOU.
Michigan Resurgent? Michigan Resurgent!
The beatings will continue until the uniforms improve!
Can you imagine? We ink a back up goalie, a Swedish kid averaging over 1ppg, sameulson, tootoo,
Aaaaand Suter announces tomorrow for Detroit, followed by Nash hopping on the gravy train?
Is it possible to buckle up for the Red Wings?
Swiss, not Swedish. My bad mgodudes
I love the Tootoo signing. One of those players you hate playing against but love having on your team. The Wings needed someone willing to get dirty.
Tootoo's a piece of shit. I fucking hate him. He doesn't get dirty. He plays dirty and regularly gets his ass beat.
I think Wings fan have been deprived of a tough fighting forward. Tootoo takes so many useless penalties, a lot of them critical, and barely produces anything. Very few Nashville fans are going to cry over this. He didn't suit up for most of the Wings-Nashville series.
The Samuelsson signing I'm iffy about...he can score but I hate the way he plays.
Brunner and Gus are awesome. Tootoo is an absolute shite signing, and I'm leavin the book open on Sammy.
I like the Samuelsson signing...great defensive forward who isn't limited on the offensive side...He is a great 3rd line forward.
Tootoo....I am waiting to comment on this signing, but the wings need that toughness and looking at his stats, he can contribute on offense, which is great for an enforcer type forward.
When he was a Wing I can't ever recall him playing a minute on the PK. How is he a great defensive forward?
What? Great defensive forward?
Absolutely not. Sammy is an average offensive threat to above average, a right handed shot, and somewhat suspect in his own zone. He is not a great defensive player at all. He plays soft but produces points where at the end of the year you look back and say, "wow Sammy had that many points?!?!". And by "that" I don't mean anything exceptional.
Tootoo, I'm confused about. He's a decent player, agitator, and good checking line player. He adds some of that toughness Detroit fans have been cryin over, but I'm just holding out judgement on him. I hope he is good friends Suter and convinces him to sign with Detroit and then anything after that will be gravy.
Actually looking at it, a tootoo, helm, miller line sounds pretty good to me. The new and faster grind line.
I have to wonder with since we just signed two depth forwards when we were supposedly looking for an elite F and an elite D if Holland is now stocking the roster in order to trade other players away for a forward or elite defenseman, though I do think we probably won't resign Hudler and Homer may retire soon.
he did have 30 points last year, hardly "barely producing anything" for a bottom 6 guy.
How many of the Wings bottom 6 barely produced 30 points?
mgoblog: it's a perfectly cromulent website
saw the tootoo signing, can hear the whistles now... lol
