even though he's 25 years old?

Yep. He's been in Grand Rapids since 2006. Thats a long time down there.

oh okay, just curious, thanks.

Ritola claimed by Tampa Bay.

Essentially, Eaves and Miller won the roster spots that were up for grabs. That's how it should be.

anyone see Dan Rosens 2010/2011 predicitions? Wings win cup! Anyone know his track record on predictions? Just curious...a bit early to say.

Andreas Lilja will be playing for the Ducks after he received his work visa.

It will be interesting to see how he works out for them. He couldn't crack San Jose's lineup during a tryout there in training camp.

If Lidstrom retires after the end of the 2010/2011, I wonder what Holland will do. Go after more offensive power or defense? Well, whenever Lidstrom retires he will be missed. To me, he is one of greatest defensemen ever.

Fabian Brunnstrom injured?

[westhockeytown]

^^I dunno, I wondered the same thing when he wasn't pulled up for Homer.

He's played like 5 games for Grand Rapids, and 4 for Detroit. That's it!

[westhockeytown]

maybe he quit.

Last I heard Brunn was out with an ankle injury

Nice to know. Uhhh can we get Jurco in like, tomorrow, just to see what he could do?

Those numbers are impressive, but Jurco was fourth on his team in points. He plays for a stacked Saint John Sea Dog's team.

Ryan Sproul's another one that put up some big time numbers in the O. He plays for the Grey Hounds, is an 18 year old defenseman, who we grabbed in the second round in 2011.

61 Games; 23G, 31A, 54P

I think he's actually on his way to Grand Rapids, now that his season is done.

UFA's I wouldn't mind us going after.
Forwards:
Zach Parise (sniper we so need)
Shane Doan (hungry, rough vet ala Dallas Drake)
David Jones (how fun would it be to pluck him from Avs)
Paul Gaustad (big, tough faceoff man)
Travis Moen (see above)
Cody McLeod (see David Jones)
Jim Slater (just because he's from Petoskey, MI)
Brandon Prust (tough kid)
Alexander Semin (only, only, only if we can get him for decent money and even then it's prolly a gamble with his work ethic i.e. Franzen light)

Defensmen:
Ryan Suter (talented dman we need or will need soon)
Matt Carle (a real good dman)

Crazy *** trade:
Jarome Iginla for Franzen, Kindle and Cleary (yep, I'm dreamin' again)
