What kinda **** is that? I guess they got into a couple scrums and didn't get killed so now they don't need Downey anymore. I'm sorry but I hate the damn Red Wings, they should just relocate to somewhere in Europe so they can play with the teams they try and imitate. I know Carolina isn't racking up the penalty minutes but at least they don't have a full roster of Euros who are terrified of fighting.

I pray someone who respects the role of enforcer will calim him before he disappears into the minors.

haha

very unexpected...NOT!
last season they signed Norton and actually let him play a couple of games before they waived him.
Why did they even sign Downey in the 1st place?!

Wow.

That's ridiculous.

Didn't Holland and company keep raving about Downey all throughout the preseason? Didn't they? And now, one game into the season, Downey gets waived. He didn't even get to play in their season opener either. What the hell is up with that? Doesn't make any sense whatsoever, but it IS Detroit....

The Red Wings are stupid. Why can't their carry a fighter for crying out loud? Weakest team I have ever seen. Unbelievable I tell you.

Congratulations to the Panthers and Oilers - you are now no longer tied as the two weakest teams in the league. The Panthers held that title for one game, and the Oilers decided to join them earlier today after sending down Jacques, but the Red Wings decided that they couldn't live without owning that title, so they waived Downey, and they now have it back. Year after year Detroit continues to be the weakest team in the league. Amazing.

I saw this coming though. It happened with Brad Norton last year, and it happened with Downey this year. Detroit keeps a heavyweight on their roster to start the season just to get our hopes up, but then they just get rid of them right away.

'F' the Red Wings. What a joke.

Hopefully another team that could use toughness picks Downey up though.

that's pretty ridiculous if it's true... that would really blow, not even giving the guy a chance after he had a solid preseason
