It Isn't 1997

............I am NOT a proponent of bringing back McCarty to the Red Wings lineup AT ALL. He is going to be one step behind everyone at this point in the season. All the talk I've heard is about him being in the lineup come playoff time. This has got to be one of the worst decisions I've seen the Wings make since Adam Oates for Bernie Federko. He isn't in the shape he used to be and will just be a burden on the Wings if he returns to the lineup. I don't care if he got a hat trick in the minors. It's the minors! I loved D-Mac before he went to Calgary and still love him now, but we are not in that desperate of need for physical players that we need to send a young player down to bring him up. Besides, that why we added Stuart.
