FINALLY!!! The news I've been waiting for all season. Tomas Fleischmann is no slouch, though, and probably would have played next season when a few players like Hull and Yzerman move on or retire. Lang is still a young guy, only 33, and he is a big dude, just what Detroit has been missing for a few seasons. The only real downside is that Detroit will be without a first round draft pick until like 2050

But luckily their scouts seem to be able to find the late round gems like Federov, Lidstrom, Datsyuk, and Zetterberg. Ken Holland just went a long way in making up for the Hasek debacle.
