i agree (except the detroit part, of course). :yes:

Same here ;) hehe

I'm tired of people hating on Detroit, too, it's asinine. I'm going to go on a little rampage here, but bear with me... Detroit was horrid in the 80's. So what did they do to get better? They made some amazing draft picks. With those picks, they gradually became better and better. Soon they won the Stanley Cup ("soon" depending on how you look at it, I'm talking about the turn around that was made). Yet, even though they won, they still made some amazing draft picks. In fact, they're making/made better draft picks than they ever have before. You don't get talent like Zetterberg, Datsyuk, Huddler, Williams, Wallin, Avery (even if he is gone), and Grigorenko (get better!) by just being lucky. Those are absolutely amazing picks considering that Detroit has had low-round picks mostly in the 2nd round due to some nice trading moves. So, if anyone ever tells you that Detroit buys their players they're dead wrong. Detroit earned all of the money they have by making wise draft picks. Mike Illithc never wanted to spend much money on them until they started producing, same with the current Tigers. If you want to see a team that "buys" their players look at the NY Rangers or possibly even the Dallas Stars (I hate them... stupid fans here in Dallas).

End of rampage.

DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN! DEVILS WIN!

Wow, this thread is quiet...must be all the duck fans out getting drunk. ;)

Great Season Everyone, Congrats to the New Jersey Devils.

Stanley Cup Champions 2002-2003.

I think its safe to say, we can now lock this thread. :)

See Everyone Next Season!

congrats Devils... those New Jersey fans shouldnt be allowed to come to another game though... how can they boo Gigeure for winning the Conn Smythe after them winning the stanley cup.

Not to mention they had no enthusiasm when the Devils won.

The following is a presentation of the Detroit Red Wings...

Hey Devils...don't get too comfortable with that cup...it's permeant residence is right back here in Hockeytown... Enjoy the loaner for the year.

Sincerely,

The Detroit Red Wings

    • The funny thing here is that like 70% or so of the web browser users use 'Google Chrome' as web browser. What I don't understand is that why on earth would ANYONE choose 'Google Chrome' on Windows when 'Microsoft Edge' is not just better in most things, but it's already there right out of the box for the Windows users. Microsoft Edge has less data collection (yes, that's a fact), less RAM usage and is more optimized for Windows (as it's a Microsoft product) right out of the box. Sure, the way Microsoft is pushing Microsoft Edge on users might not be the best way of doing it and might need to change. But I would never choose 'Google Chrome' over 'Microsoft Edge' today anyways. I'm sure there was a period back in the days when 'Google Chrome' actually was better in most things, but that period is not today.
    • JetBrains rolls out IntelliJ IDEA update with Markdown preview fixes and more by David Uzondu Image via JetBrains IntelliJ 2026.1.3 from JetBrains has landed, bringing several highly requested bug fixes that target common UI glitches and terminal rendering issues. If you run tmux inside the integrated terminal, the IDE no longer renders the cursor above the active line. The Markdown preview bug, which was fixed in this release, had annoyed developers for quite some time, as the preview pane failed to render images saved outside the project directory. Instead of displaying the actual image, the IDE simply showed a broken image icon, a problem that stuck around for two years before this update. Over on Windows, developers running WSL can now use wsl.exe to spin up their environments without losing terminal functionality. In previous builds, launching a terminal shell with something like wsl.exe -d ubuntu inside a Windows-based project broke both shell integration and active process detection. Other bug fixes in this release include: An issue where Gradle sync incorrectly reported success as a failure on WSL when using Gradle 9.5.0. A syntax highlighting bug that flagged valid Java for-loop initialization blocks with multiple statements as incorrect. A warning bug that triggered a false non-null local variable alert when using JSpecify annotations. A database generation bug that hid the option to use a DELETE statement instead of a TRUNCATE checkbox. A Kotlin highlighting failure where an assertion error in the Gradle redundant library inspection broke error highlighting. A UI bug where the ComboBox popup lacked a maximum height restriction. A Snowflake syntax error where DataGrip failed to support the "create temp" command. A Svelte syntax parsing failure that incorrectly flagged quotes inside inline expressions. A VCS repository manager deadlock that triggered thread pool exhaustion. A memory leak where the LazyTree component kept all previous versions of a tree in memory. IntelliJ 2026.1.3 is the third bug fix release for the IntelliJ 2026.1 series. The first one landed back in April with a fix for the WSL Python interpreter freeze, another fix for guest participants using Emmet abbreviations, and corrected WildFly server deployment errors.
