Holland continues to hold this team back. Selling off Smith, Jurco, Ott, and Vanek was good, but from a fan perspective I would not trust this guy to trade on my kids NHL17 game. To me, I feel the game has passed him and he and Detroit need a fresh start.

When it comes to any draft, I rather load up on picks if you are going to do the reload. This team has many holes and needs to build through the draft. Make the trades and load up on picks, for the 2017 and 2018 drafts. From what I have read the 2017 is not as deep, so that's why I say get some picks for the 2018 draft. 

If Kenny can pull 2 picks for Smith and one being a 2nd rd, I would be happy has hell with that.

The most games Mrazek has started is 52 and that was back in the OHL.
I'm guessing he splits the season with Jimmy and the "starter" will be the guy who ends up earning the spot over the course of the season.

No thanks on Wiz. Overpaid and takes places off. That was one of the biggest complaints from Jackets fans down here in Columbus.

He wasn't particularly loyal to Schneider who he let leave. Or Draper/ Maltby/ or Ozzy who all wanted to keep playing but were forced into retirement because Holland didn't want them back. I'm sure there have been others but I neither want to remember nor research it.

I think the Front office has got a little too comfortable. Wouldn't hurt to shake things up.

A trade for an injury prone, one dimensional, offensive defenseman in the last year of an overpriced contract is going to require a young, future top six, roster player in return? In what universe?

Forget Cleary, I guess we have a new 3rd Amigo

Look at the bright side we still have Franzen.

F*** Ken Holland.

What a joke!!!! Hope everyone is prepared for another 1st rd exit. I feel bad for Dats and Z.

Too old! NEXT

I will always say these post season awards are garbage. Especially the ones that the media or fans vote for. Usually the person that is the most deserving doesn't get it. That's why I totally expect Babs to not get it. People totally discount that he coached a team that players like Dats, Franzen, Z, Alfie, and Weiss missed a total of 172 games combined.

@asktheduffer: Dany Heatley, the Canadian Franzen, has scored for #wild tonight. First playoff G since 2011.

I love it when beat writers throw shade.

I expect Holland to make a big push this offseason. This will be a push for guys like Kronner, Z, and Dats.

As long as Smith uses his speed he makes things happen.

What is this Howard's third flu this year
Howard has more flus than shut outs
