About N.O.H.S.

The Nightmare on Helm Street is an unofficial blog overwhelmingly dedicated to the Detroit Red Wings and the destruction of their enemies. Drew started a non-partisan blog in 2008 which failed miserably and he eventually created N.O.H.S. on the scorched Earth thereafter in July 2009. Chris was added as an author three months later. Both are washed up college hockey players, except Chris is a stupid goalie.

From Khan(!)...

Aaron Downey is anxious to get back on the ice after a year off from hockey. And the veteran enforcer is hoping to return to a familiar place.

Downey is expected to attend Detroit Red Wings training camp on a tryout. It’s not official yet, but should be confirmed in the next couple of days.

That's right...he could be back.  The journeyman enforcer really endeared himself to the Detroit fans during the 2007-2008 season.  My most fond memory was when he beat the crap out of Ian Laperriere (twice) after Lappy charged in and injured Lidstrom with a high hit while still playing for Colorado.

Everyone seems to think that Downey is just a great guy in the locker room - so I'd welcome him back into the fold...even at 36 years old.  I don't think he would spend much (if any) time with the actual big club - but he could prove useful in Grand Rapids and also as an emergency call-up.

Oh and we're only a little over an hour away from Antti Niemi's arbitration hearing.

If Downey goes back to GR, he will be with the likes of Paul Crosty... "There Will Be Blood" definitely the correct name for this story. I can't imagine having two enforcers like these guys playing together
