Sad news. IMO Lidstrom is the 2nd best D-man next to Bobby Orr. Given I'm biased but I'm lucky enough to have been able to watch him for 20 years.

Likewise, Christos. I think the Wings need Suter, Parise, and another top 4 D-man as well. This is truly the end of an era, but it doesn't have to be the end of the run for the Wings. They have a ton of cap room to get some fresh blood in here. In Holland we trust.
