    The thing I most want to see right now, oddly enough, is Chiarot moved to FORWARD.  He is pretty slick at hockey EXCEPT PLAYING DEFENSE!  I have no idea why they haven't converted him to a power forward yet.  He's such a a ***** on defense, but seems to transform into somebody that has a lot of talent when he plays offense.  Just stop trying to make him something he's not, and maybe he won't suck so hard.

    Also, I'm not a fan of the "Ride the Hot Goaltender until he gets absolutely embarrassed" approach.  What's wrong with alternating 2 goalies that can both play well as they alternate?  Lyon was used like a SLAVE and it finally wore him down.  That's a coaching problem.  Why start doing that to Reimer right now?  It's not good for either goalie's confidence.

    I think this game decides the season for us. 
    If we lose tonight, we need to go full tank for a lotto pick.

    Heading into 2024, it's imperative to unload atleast 2 D, preferably Holl and Petry and if possible Chiarot.
    At forward, trade Fabbri & Copp.  Fabbri to clear cap space, Copp to get rid of an underperforming player and open a roster spot.
    UFAs, they need to let Perron, Reimer and Ghost go. Too old, too old, replaceable internally.
    UFAs, consider keeping Fischer and Sprong if the cap and term make sense...
    Kane should be a priority, so much so, I'd over pay slightly.
    In net we need to trade for an upgrade, send Husso or Lyon back as part of the return to clear a spot.
    In UFA consider Hanafin and or Pesce. 
    Play some the kids or use them as trade assets to get early/mid 20s higher end players (quality over quantity).

    Well the NTC can be worked around.  I'm sure he'd rather play in SJ over Grand Rapids or Toledo.

    Copp, Veleno, and Rasmussen just don't play with enough intensity.  They play like they are trying to avoid mistakes instead of playing like they are trying to destroy people, get the puck, and then embarrass the other team's defense.  Lalonde has neutered half our team.  It's lame.

    Well s***. They pulled that one out! Let's hope this momentum carries over.
    Oh, and get Kane signed TODAY!

    I love how heads up his passing is. He's a breakout machine. His stretch passes are deadly.

    He looked very  comfortable and I agree he should never be in AHL again unless it's a conditioning stint.

    This is why I think it's so important to bring Kane back.  We obviously need to regain composure for this to happen as well in it's full effect BUT it's no secret out there that the Wings have had very little lotto luck.  However having Patrick Kane here helps mitigate this by that having him in a wing wheel.  Patrick in good health and playing great hockey will surely help lure other players to our roster to bolster our top 6, there's no question that it will.   It's Yzerman's job to find the right ones, as well as fix his f*cking glaring errors he's made.
