How is every game not sold out?
Bastards...
DETROIT - It would be hard to find better value anywhere in hockey.
The Detroit Red Wings are set to release $9 tickets for some of their December and January games. The defending Stanley Cup champions will put the tickets on sale Friday with a limit of four per customer.
The Red Wings are currently third in home attendance this season with an average of 19,753 over seven games at Joe Louis Arena. That's about 98 per cent of capacity.

^^^ ya, and after reading this thread earlier, i was wondering why it was taking so long for it to get vetoed b/c it seemed like everyone was against it

Weird...I keep losing subscriptions to this stupid thread. It's fawking annoying.
And to be perfectly honest, I didn't think I was really trying to rape Evader at all. He's getting two PP QB defensemen from me and Turco who's improving after doing nothing for me for the first 3-4 weeks.
Whatever...if you guys don't like it, I'm fine with it. Evader was asking for healthy goalie...I mean, my other guy would be Bulin. He could have him if he wanted.

oK... I have a serious question. Why was the trade between Yummy and myself vetoed? I was giving up my top defenseman and top goaltender (who should be back very soon) for 2 D-MEN and Turco (who is obviously having a subpar year)
I would really appreciate everyone that voted against this or whatever to reconsider..... I need a top starting goaltender and a makeover soon... I am 0-13 for the week... C'mon guys

Interesting. Interesting.

i'm going to do some reading and find 3 starts. i can't let Yummy sweep the goalie stats.
good thing my offense is having a good week so far or i'd be screwed

Take it to the Fantasy Hockey thread if you wish. I don't think anyone wants to see you give up your Top D and Top Goalie.

Just won a pair of tickets for Sens vs Leafs for the 27th.
I have other plans that night but I'm thinking I should go, they're 350$ worth.

Super Robots
Alex Goligoski
xXSergei ZubovXx Dwayne Roloson
Marty Turco
Evader
Andrei Markov
Evgeni Nabokov
so now we're substituting Zubov for off/on starter Rolosson.
Evader... Please.. Explain to me why you want to trade away your best and one of the leagues best goalies and your best Dman for subpar goalies and a Dman who is going to fall of center stage with Boucher now there and Whitney coming back in a week or two.
According to most sources Nabakov will be back Saturday.
A makeover and a change doesn't start with getting rid of your best players.. (see Pittsburgh Pirates)

Too bad I'm not getting Ovechkin.
Naw...nothing here, guys. Evader keeps asking for my goalies. So, I'm trying my best to give him something fair.
Nabokov is aight...his save percentage is meh. He does win...but, my issues with you mofos each week are not wins. It's save percentage and GAA. Again, up to you all...
