I know right. Nashville knows they must rough him up or else he will score them out of the building.

Top notch effort on the PP. Surely we would have scored if Sheahan hadn't hurt his shoulder and was on the top unit.

I will repeat, have you been watching. He's a great skater, has moved the puck well, makes very few mistakes and he's played 15 games in the NHL. If he's as bad as you say he is they would've sent him back down at the 9 game mark. He was playing too good to send back down. I don't care if he's been playing 1st or 3rd pairing minutes. He has been very good. If you can't see that you clearly aren't watching the same games. His play alone forced them to make other difficult roster moves like waiving Marchenko. If he had been playing terrible they send him down at the 9 game mark ( he doesn't have to go through waivers) and they play Marchenko or Sproul.

Maybe the new goalie pants will make it more comfortable for Mrazek when he has to wear a backpack to carry the team.

A 4 on 1. Only the Wings.....

Another great display of how we got to 11.2% and last in the NHL on the PP.

Ladies and gentlemen, your Belle Tire Fire Sour Play.

Noooooooooooooo, decline, decline!!!!

Can you explain to me why Babcock did worse in the 2013-2014 season than Blashill did in 2015-2016 season? The answer is because he didn't have his superstars that one year. Here you go for your reference. So is it actually Blashill? Sure he's a new coach. But it's alarming that Mike Babcock performed worse than Blashill did when Zetterberg/ Dats got injured that year. To me this shows how much superstar players can really make a difference. Even the great Babcock couldn't do much without his Euro Twins. And we all remember what happened as soon as we lost lidstrom between 2012 and 2013, we finished 7th in the conference in 2013 (down from 5th in the conference with Lidstrom in 2012). Remember the 23 game home win streak with Lidstrom in 2012? What happened to that in 2013? That's right, same coach but no more Lidstrom. Like it or not, superstar players make a difference. We have none. Sure Blashill is an issue. He's just a part of it. But let's not scapegoat a guy when his predecessor clearly struggled without the players he needed. (look at the proof above). I'm not sure if people are having amnesia but Zetterberg and Datsyuk had the ability to single handedly carry the team to victories. Fact of the matter is, we don't have those types of players anymore.

That is simply not true. There were whole games where he was one of our best or at least far from being our worst. Keeping Sproul is a question of skill ceiling. Marchenko has shown no sign that he will be more than a 7th, at best bottom pair defender. Sproul shows some promise in a more offensive role and might turn out as a decent 2nd pair defender, maybe even more. Worst case he will end up being a bottom pair defender like Marchenko. Would I take Marchenko over Sproul if the Wings were making run for the Cup this year ? Probably yes, because at present he is the more reliable one. But the Wings are more or less rebuilding. And in a few years Sproul will probably be way better than Marchenko will ever be. And even if not: There is nothing lost here. If you waived Sproul over Marchenko you'd still end up with a bottom pair defender. With Kennys move you at least keep the chance to end up with something better.

If Holland trades a top 5 pick, it needs to be for someone better than Fowler in my opinion. I'd consider it, but there would have to be more involved for me to pull the trigger...

Well I have to like a GDT thread that I'm mentioned in! Go Jensen! Y'all have to admit, he's been one of the better guys out there!

But Blash isn't a bad coach. He just puts guys who can't score on the PP in a 1 goal game, because it's more important to defend well on the PP. Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk

Kronwall is scratch...too bad that isn't permanently.
