Presumably because they didn't want to trade an up and coming #1 defenseman within their division.
The Boston Bruins are retarded, but not THAT retarded.
I can't buy that. If we offer them bonafide roster players and our #1, that is loads better than unproven draft picks.

A 22 year old 6'5" RHD who plays over 20 minutes a night and scores 40+ points was traded for picks.....for picks??!!
Holland, why didn't you throw the 1st, Nyquist, and Pulks at them?

I think it has less to do with Bowman, and more to do with Lidstrom.
Lidstrom was the driving force behind a lot of the team's success since at least 2002, and perhaps even since '98. I don't think it's a huge surprise that as he aged and declined the team kept slipping further from cup contention. Now that he's gone, the team is NOT a contender.
When you have a guy that plays half the game and makes no mistakes, then you can effectively cover up a lot of other weaknesses.

Duncan Keith is probably the best defenseman in the NHL. That guy is GOOD. Hjalredlkjson is elite, as well. Those 2 seemed to carry them through the SCF.

Was Hiller the one who started that goofy backpass-at-the-blueline move?
I hated that move.
That's been going on for at least 5 years.

Well, I think I'm done with the NHL for a while. Just cancelled my VPN, and game center live subscription.

It's funny when they boo when we're setting up the power play from behind our own net.
I mean, why do these morons boo when we're wasting time on our own powerplay?
I think they're specifically booing Kronwall. No idea why.

Is this why Kenny Holland almost always offers some type of role within the organization after they retire?

This team is a bunch of ******* retards

FINALLY..jesus christ

Miller is perfect 4th liner... But I would like to see Callahan
I'd like to see a god damn goal.

This game makes me sad. Detroit is playing so much better than last game but have nothing to show for it.

I think it was a much better period than last game. They actually had offensive zone pressure. If they can tighten it up just a touch more then they will be setting themselves up nicely for the W.

It'd be nice if they could play anyone in the Central Division.

He hasn't looked any worse than the rest of the team lately
So he's at least terrible? Honestly I don't think Z is the problem. He can't carry the team anymore, but he's still effective.

Coaching is the LAST problem with the Wings. It's the Defense! Plain and simple! We have ONE .... one top four D man. The rest are all 5,6,7s. Danny will be there but he has no mentor as Kronner is fried. It is the D!
I disagree with this. It's not the D's fault that the forwards constantly turn over the puck. It's not the D's fault that the forwards can't forcheck. It's not the D's fault that the forwards can't make, or take a pass to save their life. It's not the D's fault that the team can't win a faceoff this month.
The D is weak, no doubt about it, but it's far from the only problem.

4th worst in the NHL during the past 10 games.

The team showed up in the final 12 seconds!
-
Seriously, what the f*** do the Wings practice every week? Passes up the middle of the D-zone, and neutral zone drop passes? It apparently isn't passing or offensive drills.
-
Well that was very predictable. Can't hit, shoot, pass, win faceoffs...this team really isn't good at anything.
-
25% on the PK.....I'm no math wizard but that seems low.

This team is trying their best to fall out of a playoff spot.

That makes sense. It's just crazy. He is the exact type of player that Holland and Babcock were whining about for the past 4 years. The fact that he was even available was silly.
