my roommate says wings might bring federov back. thats about the only thing that could pique my interest in the wings again. he was one of my favorites. i always thought he was missunderstood and underapreciated.
hes exactly what the wings need.
<------- has watched probably 5 wing games in 5 years.

he was an A+ defensive forward, skater, and puck handler. that was always true of him as a wing.
people always called him soft and said he should attack the net more, but thats a bit like saying jon kitna should have been scrambling more.
i think its funny how detroiters treat different athletes so differently. its like some guys cant win in this town.
Yet no one says that about Datsyuk or Zetterberg, and they play the exact same way.Quote:

Datsyuk doesnt get called out on it publicly NEARLY as much as Federov did. Everyone's just so amazed at his stickwork that they let it go a lot of times.
I wouldn't say Zetterburg is all that soft, but Pavel definitely is. Neither of them are drama queens like Sergei, though.
I never had a problem with Federov's game at all. It was his personality that never clicked with fans. He gets bood now because he took less money to go elsewhere. I think he learned his lesson and would fit in. Talks are that we'd have to give up Kopecky (sp) for him. He hasn't really done much here yet, so that's not a lot to give up, but we don't have a ton of young scoring here as it is outside Hank/Pavel and occasionally Hudler. I also haven't seen Sergei at all this year. Has anyone?
