Weevil, for someone who has no fuckin clue who I am and who has never even been blessed enough to talk with me... You sure do seem to assume to know alot of shit about me don't you?
I changed my av and title just for you - so feel special damnit. Truth is though I was a North Stars fan before you even "ALMOST" made the OHL and I'll be a Stars fan long after you tell the millionth person who you thought gave a shit that you "ALMOST" made the OHL.

Hey, ease on up there kemosabe. I've seen your AV many a time and it's always been a Dallas jersey. Now it's a canes jersey.
It's also been an Oilers jersey, a Habs jersey and a Maple Leafs jersey.
Not ridiculous to call you on the switch, is it?
If you knew me on a personal level, you'd know how moronic calling me a "bandwagon" fan would be.
BTW, not that you calling me that bothers me... Hell I know perfectly well who I am. Its the fact you keep opeing your mouth that bugs the hell out of me.
True I'm not basing it on a deep and profound knowledge of the wonder that is Liontamr_77 but simply my observations and the obvious nature of your band wagon jumping.
You went to school and took a course on bandwagon jumping?? You have a masters degree in bandwagon jumping psychology??
But as to my lustrous Hockey history, well, you mentioned it. Not me.
Lustrous? You call being only being a Jr 'A' level hockey player "lustrous"?

Gee, Why didn't any team want you? I mean with your attitude, I'm SURE you would have been a great locker room voice.
Liontamr_77 said:Look.. scruffy... weevil.. jackass... whatever the hell you're calling yourself in the next post..
Just shut the fuck up will ya? Please... you're starting to hurt my head.
Clueless jackoffs like you never get it...

I don't think that's fair to say. Detroit is not as big a market as New York or Chicago or L.A., but the Wings make more money than those teams, because they have a bigger and more supportive fan base than allows them to maintain a larger payroll. To me, that means that the fans that support their team the most get rewarded with a winner.
And besides, the biggest chunk of the payroll is Fedrov's salary, and he gets so much because in order to keep him, the Wings had to outbid, who else but, the Carolina Hurricanes, who's owner basically admitted that he just tried to jack up Federov's salary out of personal spite towards Mike Ilitch.

You stated the case very well, with one minor exception.
Actually, Fedorov's salary for this year is only 2 mil. The contract he signed with Carolina that Detroit matched was a heavily front loaded deal.... He signed a 6 year 28 million dollar deal in 1997, in which if the team he played for reached the Stanley cup finals, he would recieve a 12 million dollar bonus that year, each successive season, and the season in which he signed the contract, his basic salary is 2 mil. That season not only did Detroit reach the finals, they went on to sweep the Philadelphia Flyers, and then the next season went on to sweep the Washington Capitols...Each year he was his teams top playoff scorer, and was also relied heavily upon in Power Play, and Penalty Kill situations (as has been the case throughout his career). If Detroit goes on to win the Cup again, I would say that the Red Wings actually got a steal of a deal....He is an instrumental part of this team and is a tireless defensive player, who also has the ability to put incredible offensive pressure on the opposing team.
