Whatever, I like helm. And with the high interest in him, he would've gotten more on the open market. Seems like a pretty tradable contract even a few years from now.

This is a very bad hockey team I'm starting to feel sorry for Blashill

He was forced in a top six role because of shortage of talent and couldn't produce but now he's paid like a top six so that should solve all our problems. Can't get good players? Just pay em like their good then everyone will stop bugging you cause you won't have cap space. Nobody wants to trade with you cause all your players and contracts suck? Means no work for Holland to do. This team has no direction. We won't be good until Holland leaves

Signing Neilson is nothing more than a desperate attempt to keep the streak alive. Which is all we have to look forward to until the streak finally ends.

Oh you are very nieve young padawan

This front office is just unbelievable. We need change so let's re-sign Miller and Helm.

Ok the term is too long. No doubt about it. But that cap hit is actually pretty reasonable. Just a few days ago I read he wanted in the neighborhood of 6.5 mill. The guy brings a lot to the table. Good faceoff guy, can set guys up and score, and most importantly is also a good defensive forward.

Nobody is breaking 50 points this year

Oh but the Holland apologists will tell you that it is a great team.

Good deal for the Wings and for Marchenko. One of my favorite young players on the Wings.

I am honestly sick and tired of Holland, please Mr Illitch do whatever it takes to get Stevie Y back.

Nielsen brings nothing to Detroit that they didn't have last season. I'd rather see a kid from GR play than sign him. He was a mediocre player most of his career before having a couple of decent seasons recently. I would bet that he would not score 15 goals here, and yes, I do see him as a Stephen Weiss 2.0. It would be a worthless signing. Lucic at least would have brought some grit and toughness, but it appears he's out. Staal would be pointless. I'd like Backes short term, but don't see that happening. I have no interest in Andrew Ladd, and I doubt he has any interest in us. So that leaves Eriksson and Okposo. I'd be happy with either, if the numbers were right. Would also like to add Matt Martin, but that is low probability.

Boy I hope Tatar and Nyquist find their games and Larkin doesn't go through a sophomore slump or this season may be brutal to watch.

Not every player wants to come to Detroit. Lucic was going to Edmonton before today, anyone not seeing that is an idiot. Okposo was also reported to sign with the Sabres as of last night. No surprise again. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk He's playing for the Wings so I guess he just forgets how to play hockey now... This place sometimes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Okay, you don't have to tell horror stories this early in the day

Why don't you let the rest of the day play out? Half of LGW on suicide watch right now.

I think an AA Larkin Helm line could be a lot of fun to watch and should be pretty balanced as well

Backes and Lucic brings something that we don't have and Helm doesn't bring a s***.

We will get Nielsen who is good but won't trade for a d-man and be the exact same team as last year. AA is here for a reason to replace him cause he's cheaper and way better. I hate Darren helm in the top 6 it's so damn useless but I know he will be there. Pathetic. Given up on holland at this point

Kenny never fails for God sakes

Lmao only about two years and 1 million per to much...

He just doesn't get it. There are 273728 Helms in that system. AA had 10 goals in limited minutes last year and now you take away ice time that's should be his. Holland needs to go

Holland is like the girlfriend that is in a bad relationship that doesn't know when to move on. The relationship is familiar so she just stays put.

Here comes another Weiss contract signing in Nielsen ... Swear to god if Kenny gives a 31 year old a 6-7 year deal at 5.5-6 per Hedman "could" be a ufa next year , no point using up all our cap space now just cause we got some

But(t)s are for patting. I haven't decided yet what to do with revirement(t)s...
