    Official 2016 Detroit Red Wings Offseason Thread

    After the Streak ends or the record is broken, change will happen. Until then, we're going to be watching a veteran team with supposed grit as Dabura pointed out.

    Look who's #1! Seems like we should know his name from somewhere ...

    Who should get A?

    Hope you guys (krsmith and Jesusberg) are right. That pic of Larkin at the alumni game in Leafs attire haunts me.

    Who should get A?

    Voted Abby. Occasional dumb penalties aside, he's a heart and soul guy and a Michigan kid. As for Larkin, the fact that he grew up a Leafs fan bothers me. When he finally becomes UFA, Toronto could have matured into a decent team under Babcock with so many high draft picks. I fear Larkin will bolt to play for his childhood team. Not sure I'd want to give him the C before he opts to remain with the Wings.

    Should any of #91, #13, #40, #30 be retired? Poll/Discussion

    I don't care if Datsyuk moved FARTHER away from his family or is living in the same house with them. Dude signed a contract, didn't fulfill it, and left the team in a pickle. Did Holland make the best of the situation? Probably, unless that 16 pick turns out to be an absolute stud.

    Should any of #91, #13, #40, #30 be retired? Poll/Discussion

    Of the four, #91 would be the only candidate I would consider retiring AT THIS TIME. Like Kickazz, I was "mad" at Fedorov for about a decade. I really only got over it around the time of the alumni game vs. Toronto. I fully support his number being shadow-retired like Vladdy's. Not for the same reason, of course, but because Fed's wearing 91 was iconic. For me, that number will always belong to him even if the club doesn't hang his jersey from the rafters. As for Datsyuk, I'm old. I still think of #13 belonging to Kozlov. Yes, Dats was a much better player. IMHO he also hurt the organization by not playing out his contract. So now, like I was at Fedorov before him, I'm mad at Datsyuk. Maybe in a decade I would consider retiring his number. Z is a fantastic player and consummate leader. Still, with only one Cup and few(er) individual trophies than others, how can his number be retired? Is Zetterberg more important than, say, Shanny (whose number I would not retire)? Ozzie, no. Even though he left the organization for a time, he's a Wing at heart. He just isn't, to me, on the same level as Yzerman and Lidstrom -- no brainer choices to have their jerseys retired. If the Wings retire Ozzie's jersey, would Draper and Maltby be next? Sure, these are significant players in Red Wings lore but they aren't the historical greats.

    This year vs last year: a poll

    Voted Worse. No Datsyuk, Z a year older, Larkin in a possible Sophomore slump. I hope I'm wrong and the new signings work out and some young players step up.

    Teemu Pulkkinen - Out 4-6 months

    Rehab and possibly a pin should fix the shoulder up fine. Years ago, mine used to come out of the socket while I slept. Try waking up to that in the middle of the night! Now, though, after lots of rehab, it's as strong as ever. Of course I'm not a one-dimensional minor league hockey player though ...

    Steve Ott signs 1 year, $800k deal with Detroit

    Who knows if it's true, but the article is sensationalist crap. The alleged women were "high school grads" not "high school girls." Why mention high school at all if not to try to make McCarty look bad? My wife is a high school grad, too ... in her 40's. 18-year-olds can hook up with anyone they want. They're legal adults. Heck, in Michigan the age of consent is 16 (yuck!), I believe.

    If Holland traded Howard for a bag of pugs and then beat Mrazek over the head with said bag repeatedly until he ended up on IR, I would be pissed.

    Or fans who don't understand that the team will do whatever it can to keep the Streak going need to adjust their expectations. But by all means, continue to bang your head against a wall.
