Hedman is getting better. Need him at this level or better.

Hedman, Stralman, ... Carle, man

About time Heddy gets some recognition, lol at all the people saying he's not a #1 defensemen on any team.

And the idiots in our fanbase that kill him for any mistake and want him traded for a bag of pucks cause he doesn't hit enough.

He's been a physical force this entire run. What (Mod Edit) are thinking he doesn't hit enough?

Just idiots on twitter, EE will reply to them occasionally and it's funny.

Why have him run around and put himself out of position to make a big hit ? The guy is a living tree with a wingspan that is a nightmare for opposing forwards. He makes life really difficult for the opposition playing a smart and sound game positionally. Oh and being his size with his wheels also helps.

Hedman is phenomenal.

Has all the tools to be a Hall of Famer, grabbing a Norris or two on the way.

 

[Coopers Gum]

Can we just take time to realize what a ****ing BEAST this guy has been for us this playoffs?

[The Underboss]

He's really growing into his own.

Really cool, always loved Lidström and it's great to hear him say things like that because he seem like a guy who dosen't just say things unless he really means it.

I remember the video of the two of them meating for the first time:

if carle makes 5.5 does that mean hedman is worth 10.5 per year ?

[More 2004]

If Carle makes 5.5 million that means Heddy is easily worth 55 mil a year.

Heddy's gonna take home a solid $8/year

I think he knows he could make more but takes probably a $1m/year cut to stay with a team that is going to be a cup contender for the next 5-6 years, easily.

There's no way he makes that kind of money. Does he have a Norris or is he nominated again thus year? Talk to me when he does, he doesn't have the body of work for money like that. He's had a nice playoffs but it's the shiny new toy syndrome with him and he's not really that good.

why ? is he as good as subban ? you don't think he would get that if he hits ufa at age 26 ? i'm sure the lightning resigns him one year before he hits ufa. At this point Hedman might be the most important player to keep on this team! have the redwings ever replaced lindstrom yet ?

Let me guess, you think Sustr is better?

He's quoting the Subban hype machine found at: http://hfboards.mandatory.com/showthread.php?t=1890352&page=10 and elsewhere on the website.

I wasn't quotin Todd, but instead Hose unless that's who you meant.

Either way cracked me up a bit

Wasn't it exactly those phrases that came from hfboards 2-3 years ago?
