I was commenting on this to a friend of mine while watching the game Friday
night. What amazes me about a possible Ciccarelli trade is the lack of heart
that the Wings showed during the Cup finals. Ciccarelli was one of the few
players that showed up for the series and now the Wings are talking trade.
Makes me glad I'm not a Wings fan.
Hey Dino, the Caps are looking for some forwards and I'd love to see you back
in DC. (Even if the new uni's suck).

Dino is a pus and Yzerman's over the hill. It doesn't matter if we want
trade them now because we won't get much for them.

The rumors that are going around about Yzerman for Yashin and so
force are unfounded, according to a friend of mine in Ottawa. He says
that in Ottawa there's no rumors regarding Yashin for Yzerman, instead
it's Berard and a pick for Yzerman, or something along those lines.

I agree with you here Alex, but something's going on when the Wings have
Stevie as the #3 center. That's ridiculous!

Hey "O.J.", of course you won't get anyone of Yzerman's calibre in a
trade because Mario Lemieux and Wanyne Gretzky arn't looking to move.
That's why the idea is so stupid in the first place. Instead of putting all
the blame on one or two players, the Red Wings should re-evaluate their
whole team (lines, benchings, coaching techniques).
And wether or not "Dino is a pus" is irelivant. He's one of the best
go-to the net players in the NHL, and without him, Detroit's
up 'till now sucessfull power play, could be jepordised.
Mark my words, if Detroit trades these two players away they will not win
the Cup this year.

Yzerman is too old with high$$$!
Dino C is too old,too!
Okay, Scotty has to trade them!
: Yup. Despite being older, Yzerman is still a better centre than either
: Fedorov or Primeau.
Gee... Alex I see quite a few of your messages on this newsgroup and
usually agree with your views but this is foolishness. Sure Yzerman is
probably better than Primeau, but Fedorov?!? Yzerman was better in his
prime that Fedorov is now, but to say Yzerman is the better of the two
today is crazy. I still think it's dispickable the way the wings are
treating him. He should probably move to the wing and be put on one of
the top two lines. Draper is good enought to be the third line center.

I have to agree with Brad about Yzerman not being better than Federov. Look
who Bowman has Federov playing with these days. Put Federov back with Kozlov
and watch the magic work. I must agree with you that if the Wings want to win
the Stanley cup they're going to have to settle the friction that was
created with these rumours.

Give me a break...
The Wings tried to put Yzerman on Premeau's wings last year, but Stevie's
one of those players who needs to center a line. I agree Fedorov is a
better player than Yzerman, but Sergei has this annoying habit of
disappearing in the big games while Steve continues plugging away.
Sergei still passes too much and he will never attain the greatness he
had two years ago until he shoots the puck more. For now, I would put
Steve as the second line center, because he is more creative with the
puck than Premeau and is also a better puckhandler than Keith.
Premeau excels at geting goals off the wing one on one and by picking up
rebounds. He is not a playmaker of Yzerman's caliber.
