DET has granted Mike Babcock permission to talk to other NHL teams. Window open til late May. Doesn't mean Babcock leaving DET, window open.

Nice write-up, Mikey. That Nelson goal, will just say the last Sabre center that looked capable of making something like that happen was Briere, probably?

Yeah, he's second but would have been a 1st in many other years. Dabate between him and a few others, John Tavres and a few others over the last decade since Crosby was picked.

They looked like fools, promised him then traded him, the team was worse. Not his fault, Darcy strikes again.

But they signed him, which was the purpose of the visit. Everything that came after was, well, after.

With the veterans upset with GMTM about the way he handled the roster (aka tanking).... I wonder if T Pegs might consider offering Babock with a full team control option. Players wanted to win while GMTM wanted the top draft pick. I wonder how many players are behind GMTM. Just random thoughts. Shall be an interesting offseason.

If they're babies about what happened, they can go play elsewhere and Murray will be the one able to send them packing.

It's just a game, anyone still on the roster with a contract will see what the outcome of all the crap over the past 2 seasons will yield, and they'll benefit from it.

missed the point, 89...a pretty damn good player with a no-trade clause waived it to come to buffalo because of their "recruiting"
