Currently at 4-2-1 through seven preseason games, Detroit concludes its preseason schedule with a home game against the Toronto Maple Leafs tomorrow (Saturday, Oct. 7) at 7:00 p.m. at Little Caesars Arena. The game will air on Bally Sports Detroit.

Edvin San plays the majority of the season in GR, and McIsaac is called up b4 him. Jonatan Berggren leads the team in points by end of season. Fabbri plays a full 82 games Veleno is waived Shawn Horcoff is poached by another team to GM at seasons end Sprong is a complete flop and becomes a new whipping boy ChiaPet is a dominant 2nd pair and they play the majority of the season together Danielson makes the team and scores 40+ pts and PKs, and gets votes, but loses the calder to Bedard Howard is fired from Bally Sports Seider wins the Norris Wings lose in the finals to the Seattle Kraken Rasmussen leads the team in playoff goals

Okay to ruse to Steve Yzerman But must never ruse to fear

It was me. At the time of the pick I would have rather had Dvorsky. I wasn't losing any sleep over the choice, but I had other preferences besides Danielson...ASP as well. I thought of both guys as solid choices but had other preferences had I been the GM. I was clearly wrong on that one. These guys are both fantastic.

Very fair point, especially based on Det & TO. Just to play devils advocate, he did take the 03 Ducks within 1 game of winning a cup with what I believe was a very young team, Oates and Stumpy being the exceptions.

Our kids just gave the Maple Leafs (mostly) NHL roster all they could handle. Yes it's preseason but Nate Danielson is out here winning faceoffs against John Tavares at 19 years old. This team is so awesome.

Danielson needs to be in our lineup for a 9 game look... he's fantastic! Along with a mostly AHL squad they gave a mostly NHL Leafs lineup a good run.

If the best player doesnt play, you set a bad culture for the organization. Edvinsson is CLEARLY in our top 3 defensemen and arguably only behind Seider. Making an argument that Chiarot, Holl, Ghost, Petry, and / or Maata are better is just stupid. Those players only have downside, as well. They are not as good as Edvinsson, and they arent going to get better with more NHL experience like Edvinsson will. I'm sick of fans thinking Yzerman is some genius. He isn't. He drafts for character and work rate, which is his best ability. His trades and UFA pick ups so far have been mediocre at best. The Chiarot signing is a huge stain on his CV, and he hasnt shown the ability to eat a sunk cost. Right now, the team cannot afford to have him in the lineup. Yet, he still is. That's not on Lalonde. That's on Yzerman. He needs to manage the 23 man roster appropriately. And playing Eddog is a big part of that.
