    So, Evander Kane...

    Not worth a full bag of used pucks
  2. For those of us that have the NHL net Wednesday April 1 at 4 pm est game 4 of the finals will air. This is the game where the Washington coach (Ron Wilson) gave the worst Peptalk before the game “it’s a good day to die”. After that show there is another about the same year and the Wings playoff run. Hope everyone enjoys it as much as I will!

    Goal GOAT Poll

    There isn’t any question about this Gretzky has all the numbers to prove that he’s the best scoring player to ever hit the ice. With that said Gordie is the best hockey player to Lease up the skates.

    Dylan Larkin Is Soft

    If all your here for is cutting down the team and our players leave you have to be able to find something better to do then waist your time on a opposing fansite

    Larkin Next?

    Not a chance he is the one the team will be forged around. He will be the next captain and will be there a long time

  8. A well needed move a little surprised who it was and how much we got but a big step to rebuilding. Hopefully we can sign Green instead of getting zero from him. It sure makes next fall a lot easier and wouldn’t be surprised at all if we get rid of nyquist in the off-season

    Looks like we are right!!

    Take it easy people it takes time to rebuild to be honest we are so used to winning we have know clue how long it takes to rebuild a team and we just truely just started to rebuild last year

    Ken Holland contract extension watch

    Yes I agree Yzerman is everyone's dream but he isn't going anywhere

    Defense

    This has probably been asked but here it is again. What are the Wings going to do for a Defenseman we really need a number one guy and could use a second top three guy to go along with that?
  12. blgillett

    Be honest..

    Neither one no way I want to not make play off for 8 years I hate to miss one it got to be some where in the middle a couple years to miss playoffs we can handle as long as it gives us a shot at the cup. The wings in the past has been able to rebuild on the run but that's with great coaching I'm not sure we in that position right now Blashhill a good coach just not great at least yet

    Who do you have as the top 5 Wings of all time..

    No Gordie Howe Lindsay Sawchuck Delvecchio

    Thomas Vanek signs 1 year, $2.6m deal with Detroit

    yes Kenny has stated that he would get defenseman with a trade he has stock piled forwards and now in need of shedding some but don't expect to see it happen right away prices are high right now he will let things cool a little and guys like Tatar Nyquist and Jurco will be trade bait for a top two defenseman i would agree with the first two but Ott is no B+ nor c+ I don't look for him to play barring injury
  15. blgillett

    Who should get A?

    AAh no

    Thomas Vanek signs 1 year, $2.6m deal with Detroit

    Only problem I have with this is one year we will have to get rid of one of our young guys for someone with a one year deal but I'm guessing Kenny is planning to trade a young forward for a defenseman anyways

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

    Not a fan of him not a fan of one year deals
  18. blgillett

    Alexey Marchenko re-signed: 2 years, $1.45m AAV

    Love the deal
  19. blgillett

    Darren Helm re-signed: 5 years, $3.85m AAV

    Over paid
  20. Typical wing type guy good two way player. Not great but we didn't have to many other choices. We are done after resigning our players not enough left to get anyone barring a trade
  21. blgillett

    Other than Stamkos, which FA forward do you want?

    To be honest there isn't anyone out there that will get us to the playoffs this year we might be in true rebuild mode this year
  22. blgillett

    Stamkos to... Tampa

    this had nothing to do with Kenny give me a break
  23. blgillett

    Stamkos to... Tampa

    Yeah sucks plan B I guess but plan B isn't very good one

    Detroit trades Datsyuk to Arizona

    Unreal Kenny has pulled a miracle out of his hat and maybe open up an opportunity to make the Wings a contender again👍
  25. blgillett

    Datsyuk Announcement to Officially Leave NHL

    Everyone knew he was going but it's a bad deal that we end up eating his whole contract that means no big name player coming in this summer which probably means we miss the playoffs this year 😖
