    Jeff Blashill = Dave Lewis 2.0 / Coaching Change

    Do we agree if we don't make the playoffs, he should be fired?

    Byfuglien - What would he cost?

    Hmm. You'd keep him on defense, eh? I'd put him back there until we are healthy and then throw him in the Top-6. Let him defend Larkin and Z. Or whoever he'd play with.

    Good stat pull. I think both deserve to play every other. Like you said, they are not our problem.

    They are a fun team, I agree. I like their makeup. But I'd love to have Byfuglien. Ha. I wouldn't give up Nyquist and Tatar, but maybe one of them. For a different type of player. Byfuglien is a great forward. In my opinion of course.

    Byfuglien - What would he cost?

    You're probably right. What would you give up, if anything for him? Do you think putting him back at forward to jumpstart some lines is a decent thought?

    ^ I agree. Both have looked really good. I'd keep going back and forth personally.

    Jeff Blashill = Dave Lewis 2.0 / Coaching Change

    Okay, I concede. The last two posters made some good points. Along with the person that talked about J. Coops start to his career. I'm just furious with the effort. And I tend to throw that on the coaching staff, fair or not. This is the same team as last year. Older or younger or wiser or dumber, this team should not look this listless. I'm going to my second game on Friday. Second Friday game of the season for me. Second game against a Canadian team. First being opening night. Let's make this the second W. Sorry for starting this thread. Though I am happy to report everyone is basically in agreement. This is unacceptable. If the Wings cared as much as the fans on this thread do...

    Why are the Wings making such bad decisions with the puck?

    We have the same team as last season, except for a coach change. Humph.

    What is wrong with Anaheim?

    Much rather have 1 Perry than 2 weak Euros. Give me a break, Kit Kat.

    Jeff Blashill = Dave Lewis 2.0 / Coaching Change

    Basically, y'all are saying the Wings are fine. Blashill is doing good. Things look promising. I'm sick of hearing how young we are. I'm sick of hearing how old we are. It doesn't make any goddam sense. Most of the injured players weren't even on the team last year. And most of y'all hate Quincey, so who cares? Blashill needs to light a spark. Fine, don't fire him. Just waste away the last years of Zetterberg and Datsyuk with the Red Wings Ausmus.

    The Wings started 6-2-2 last year...

    Jeff Blashill = Dave Lewis 2.0 / Coaching Change

    They should be 2-7. Their record is better than they've played. Let's also keep that in mind. Other than that, good point. Good pull of fact. I like that in a rebuttal. Thanks. What's his new style? What is the team's identity? Do you know it? I don't...

    Jeff Blashill = Dave Lewis 2.0 / Coaching Change

    What?! Last year the excuse was our stars are young. Now, they are too old? You can't have it both ways. People age when they don't die. So why'd we sign an injury-riddled Green? Don't get me started on Holland. If Babs had Larkin, don't even get me started. He'd definitely not split him and Z up.

    Jeff Blashill = Dave Lewis 2.0 / Coaching Change

    Do you think they are playing well? Do you think Blashill is saying anything to give you confidence he can turn this team into something?

    Jeff Blashill = Dave Lewis 2.0 / Coaching Change

    This is a better team on paper than the past few seasons. That's a fact. Similar injuries in other seasons. Babcock got more out of his players. This is unacceptable. We are wasting talent right now. Make a move. A big move. Give Tony the reigns. Make a splash. Make people wake up.

    Why Is The Joe Half Empty?

    The people complaining are people that rarely go. Fix the problem yourselves and stop blaming others. It's not hard to go to games if you want to go. Tix are available.

    Why Is The Joe Half Empty?

    If you are complaining about the Joe being empty, you better be going to the games. Don't be that guy that complains and does nothing. Also, no excuse about not having tickets. Those lower bowl tickets are all for sale on TicketExchange. You can find tickets easily. Come on, man!
  18. Obviously other people are held accountable. Smith in for Marchenko. Smith out for stupidity. Howard out for poor performance. Holland? We don't necessarily need to list all the bad moves here. But there's been a plethora of them. Will he ever go or is he never being fired?

    DRW Free Agents / Salary Thread

    What? That makes no sense. That's his job. To be better at finding UFAs than a silly message board. His job isn't to always be right, but to be right more than wrong and that hasn't been the case. His job is to help us win cups and lately we aren't even close.

    DRW Free Agents / Salary Thread

    But Holland signed one of them. He's had a lot of busts. You can blame Holland now.

    DRW Free Agents / Salary Thread

    So he's signed 1 good player? Come on, BLAME HOLLAND!

    Jim Devellano on Mantha's play: "Very disappointing"

    You guys are making a lot of excuses for this guy. To the person who said he's been as good as Jurco…Isn't he supposed to be WAY WAY WAY better than Jurco?! Come on be honest with yourselves. It's been a disappointing first season. That's true. So, what's the issue?

    Jim Devellano on Mantha's play: "Very disappointing"

    Comments were probably not needed. But does anyone really believe he isn't disappointing so far? Wasn't he like the next Yzerman? He barely scores in the AHL...

    At What Point Does Holland Deserve Blame?

    I would take a Cup this year if it meant missing the playoffs next year. Versus making the playoffs both years and losing each time in the first round.

    Things you would like to see for 2015-16 Season

    You guys are right. Just play all of our young kids from the Griffins. They will probably carry us to the promised land. Oh wait, haven't we been doing that? Hasn't it not been working?
