Free Agent Frenzy: Swirlonimoes Abound!

It's O'Reilly and has always been O'Reilly.

Wings felt they made competitive offer for Niskanen and one team source said they would have given 7 years at $42 million.

Wings offered Dan Boyle three years at $12.5 million ($5M, $5M and $2.5M) but he took two years, $9 million from Rangers.

"They got rejected by Stephane Robidas, who went to Toronto for three years and $9 million, an offer the Wings would have matched. They got rejected by Anton Stralman to the point that Stralman's agent, Marc Levine, when contacted by the Free Press to ask if Stralman was interested in Detroit, the answer was a succinct, "no." "

Wait just one second. Are you trying to say that the Red Wings don't do every single thing right? SSF will have your head. He's a huge Wings fan. If they can find a way to sign Brodeur, he might just move to Detroit and open up a Subway restaurant.

Funny because at about 10am yesterday I happened to hear TheHockeySimmer say something about one of the UFAs, not really important which one, would like to sign with a "a contender like Detroit." People are so brainwashed that they think Detroit is synonymous with contender. They can't help themselves.

I heard Ray Ferraro going on yesterday about "how would Turris deal with this promotion, since Spezza had been facing all the top D pairings and checkers all year long," etc etc. So many people talking about their asses.
