Maybe I was being generous by saying 4-5 years, your right 2-3 years is more realistic. We have a bunch of Kids that will be coming up in that time that could be surprises. AA, Mantha, Larkin, Sproul, Jensen. We will obviously be drafting pretty good in that time frame as well, which is exactly where I trust Holland the most - he was a Pro scout after all, he knows how to evaluate players and skill. Then we have free agency where we can pickup a few players, hopefully some higher ranked FA for once but I am not one to blame Holland for a FA not wanting to come here like most people.

I wasn't either. I was merely pointing out a lot of posters on here don't know how to gauge talent. They are either 1st line elite superstars or they are 4th line grinders. All I keep reading right now is "We don't have a superstar after Z and D are gone" which is 4-5 years away.

Some people don't know how to gauge talent. Some other poster on here thinks Tatar and Nyquist are 4th line grinders and Jurco is a top line player. We should just fire everyone, and let LGW run the team.

Your title is on point. Which is exactly why I won't watch 1 minute of this series.

Go Caps! Hope Ovi gets his cup this year.

Ducks are realgud.

Come on Wings... you gotta shoot to score. Let's get more shots on net.

Quite a bit I would say. Half of them don't know what's happening.

You sure that's safe? IF they lose tonight, we will be drinking until October!

Sadly, I can't wait until we miss the playoffs, half the users here will be gone. The beginning of this series half the forum was saying Tampa in 4 or 5, we go 7 games and "Holland sucks" "Holland builds soft teams". Do you see half the forum members trade offers? They are pathetic. They cater only to the Wings needs and doesn't meet any needs for the other teams. It just shows people don't understand how a GM works, or how to gauge trade value / signings.

I blame our 4th line grinders, Tatar and Nyquist.

And what would you have done differently ? If you think Holland didn't try and sign some of the better players, your mistaken. He's been in on a lot of players but they decided to go to other teams which apparently is his fault.

I wish they threw him out yesterday. They probably would have accepted that as the game suspension. Either way, Weber can slam Z's head into the boards with full intent but get away with it. This leagues "justice" system is a joke.

Horrible horrible game by Z, Nyquist and Zids.

Good job boys. Standing around.

All that's missing from this thread is Eddie O!

So essentially he's calling Yzerman a cheater since he did the exact same thing, mind you different era. Either way, it's not cheating it's just being smarter. "It's not what team's the livest, One that survives, it's who's the wisest."

It really is.

Simply put, Minny won't beat Chicago. My thoughts so it does make a lot of sense.

Don't care. It's a different series. Chicago will beat the Wild. Chicago vs Anaheim WCF.

Preds are better then Minny. Minny lucky Tarasenko has 50% of the Blues goals. Blues also don't have a goalie that can play consistent. Two goals today were absolutely horrible.

Both teams suck and won't beat Chicago so this series doesn't make a difference. Only team I see beating chicago in the west is Anaheim. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What's weird about that as well is that they have a lot of players on there team from Sweden / Russia / Czech.

Good thing games aren't played on paper. Wings were outed by a lot of teams that had no business beating us in the past. Full cycle.
