Detroit Red Wings Olympic players?
who else finds it amazing that people can hate on the Red Wings because we're having an off season (due to injuries) and yet we have several men playing in the 2010 Olympics and have our coach coaching the Canada team? Plus our Captain is captaining the Swedish team.

like you said you guys are having an off season only because of injuries. When Franzen comes back you guys will get it together and grab either a 2nd or 3rd spot in the western conference. I'm picking you guys to win the cup again this year.

People love to hate the Red Wings. It's been that way big time since 1997. I don't find it amazing at all. I find it human nature.
While I think it's great that the Wings have so many going to the Olympics my biggest hope is that none of them get hurt. I'd much rather have them climb in the standings then send a bunch of guys to the Oympics.

Injuries can't be an excuse.......not when you employ soft Euros. How can you say the "off season" is due to injuries anyway when most people had them pegged to struggle after losing Hossa, Conklin, Hudler. Samuelsson et al.
The Wings are right where we thought they would be.....the injuries have just made them overachievers IMO.
Also........every team is sending a few Olympians.....how many Canadians will they be sending?
Lastly.......Babcock wouldn't have been my coach but that is what it is.
No, I don't find it amazing. Leafs will send 5 or 6 players........still find it amazing?
