Highly doubtful.\nThey have a pretty good core of guys, and if the defense (and Hasek!) stays healthy, they should have a decent year.\nAny team can win on any given day in the NHL, but there are quite a few teams with more talent in the league.  \nI'd love to see them hold up the cup again, but I doubt it will happen soon....:(

Hi there.\n\nLegace will not come back.  Ken Holland, GM of the Red Wings, confirmed this.  He's not back.\n\nIMO, he is gone due to 1st round exit.\n\nThe Wings have a history of doing this, impatience, most recently CuJo.  I remember that when CuJo and the Wings lost in the playoffs, his team only scored like 12 goals in front of him.  Clearly not his fault.\n\nFurthermore, Legace had a great season and doesn't deserve to leave.\n\nI hope that the Leafs sign him -- they need a starter.\n\nAnyway -- I want to address someone's post on here.  Detroit, is not a good team.  Their record, is obviously not indicative of how good of a team they are -- it just shows that they're in a bad division.  Out of 24 games played with St. Louis, Columbus and Chicago,  Detroit won 21.  They also went into OT at least two times with them, and lost.  That's 44 of their 124 points, bringing them down to 80 (obviously they wouldn't have lost all 21 wins).

Even with the new CBA agreement I do not see the NHL expanding any time soon.  A canadian city can only hope thast an American city will fold its team such as Pittsburgh.  If that is the case I believe the franchise would move to a US western city such as Seattle or Portland before it would go to a Canadian city.  Sorry!! but this is my opinion.

Well, everybody knows they're Detroit Red Wing history now.  I'd also like to add that during the playoffs, Detroit suspends a huge octopus from the rafters named "AL the Octopus".  Although, all the posts on here about it starting back in 1952 are 100% correct.  but nowadays many people convert the resemblence of the eight tentacles to represent the eight teams from each conference to make the playoffs, which is false.  Also, I know for a fact, in Detroit, I've never seen a penalty assesed for the throwing of octopus or hats for that matter.  although when it is thrown, it's usually during a stopage of play.  But we all love to see it.  It pumps us up.  Go Wings

san jose will be the dark horse of the west in the playoffs.  on paper the wings are the best.  how they hold up in the playoffs is a different story.  you have a good point about thorton.  he is good.  i hope they face the wings in the playoffs.

They sure could use a big centre.  Thornton is unrealistic, but I would say that Marleau is a possibility.

Nope, Les Bleus will return home trophyless. I reckon their return will be low keyed, perhaps via d River Mosel

The Tigers are having their best season in a long time.  The Redwings and the Pistons both made it to the post season, which in of itself is an accomplishment.  Our beloved Bill Laimbeer could coach the shock to another WNBA championship.  But as long as the Lions are owned by Ford (the automotive industry is dead here) run my McMillan (who just can't create the vision), I am afraid their is little hope.  But at least Michigan has an underdog to root for.
