Other than last year's playoffs, when he and Crosby were by far the best players on the ice for the Penguins, I haven't really seen too much of Hossa. Over the last 4 or 5 games he's been stellar. His goals are things of beauty. I don't think there's any realistic way the Wings will be able to keep him Zetterberg and Franzen, but it'd be sweet if they can.

Honestly HB, I'd rather see Franzen walk if it means we can sign Hossa long term. I love Franzen but Hossa is a better player. Period. He's a great two way forward who plays the PP and PK.
Plus with the way Franzen is playing, he could get 5 mil per on the market somewhere, and honestly if he plays hardball, I'd find the other 2 mil and hope Hossa likes to win.
Give me Hossa/Helm over Franzen.
