2/27 GDT - Red Wings at Blackhawks - 8:00 PM EST
Hairy Lime replied to LeftWinger's topic in General
No Larkin for a few games apparently. -
Wasn't liked by his teammates? Tell that to Larkin, then, because he seemed genuinely pissed about the trade and even said that AA WAS liked and wanted to stay in Detroit. As for AA's defense, it was no worse than a young Yzerman's, before a certain coach was brought in. This team's biggest problem is Blashill.

One "anonymous" quote, from any older teammate. I could give an F. Put your name on it, or I don't care.

For that return, I'd have much rather held onto him. There really was no reason to trade him to begin with. Can't wait to see him play with McDavid, might even order Center Ice to watch Edmonton games. Will be a fun team to watch.

Mike Green Traded to Oilers for Kyle Brodziak and Conditional Pick
Hairy Lime replied to gcom007's topic in General
Yes, but trading off a 25-year-old coming off a 30-goal season for cheap just because he is perceived to be a 'problem child' seems rather silly. Could you imagine if every GM traded a player only because they were viewed as a 'problem child'...Patrick Kane for example? No, unless multiple assets are involved, and that includes a 1st or a top prospect, then there is really no need to trade him. I hope Stevie holds out for a great return or does not trade him at all, and I certainly hope he does not sell low, I'd be so disappointed in him, and I don't want that. -

Hairy Lime replied to gcom007's topic in General
Now I'm dreading a little what he might trade AA for. Anything less than a 1st PLUS a decent prospect would be idiocy. I'd much rather keep AA than take a single crapshoot draft pick. -
6/21 Choose Your Fighter GDT - 2019 NHL Entry Draft 1st Round - 8:00 PM EST
Hairy Lime replied to Dabura's topic in General
Did Stevie have info Seider was going top-10? If not, why not trade back? Don't like the pick either way. -
4/9 2019 Draft Lottery GDT - Red Wings vs The World - 8:00 PM ET (NBCSN)

Good, I never wanted Hughes or Kakko anyways. They suck. Whoever we pick at #6 is who I really wanted. -

Well, this turned out quite bad... but at least it's not Colorado; still, if Chicago gets 1 or 2.... -

Isn't that pick Colorado's? -
2/24 Transference GDT - Sharks @ Red Wings - 3:00 PM ET

If he scores a hat trick against a team he has no ill will toward, what will that mean for Montreal next game? -

Happy Zadina Day! But certainly no pressure, kid. -
Nick Jensen + 2019 5th Round Pick (BUF) Traded to WSH for Madison Bowey + 2020 2nd Round Pick
Hairy Lime replied to Dabura's topic in General
Over 20 members online. I guess Holland must have made a trade, eh. Semi decent return for Jensen. Will probably be a late 2nd, but better than a late 3rd, which is what I was expecting. Don't know much about the player, but from what I've read and seen, he seems like a guy worth taking a chance on, "change of scenery" and all of that. Nothing to lose. -
Been looking at a ton of pre-draft mock drafts this morning. Almost none had Zadina slipping past 4, with the vast majority having him going at 3 to Montreal (or to a team that traded up). Don't know how or why he fell to us at 6, but, wow! Almost all had Veleno going somewhere between 15-19, with one having him going as high as 11, calling him "the best center in the draft". So it seems like a windfall for him to fall into our laps at 30. Bode Wilde, our potential 1st pick of the 2nd round (depending on what Buffalo does), was also consistently in that 15-19 range in most of these mock drafts, with one having him picked as high as 13. I was actually hoping to trade up for him in the mid-20 range, but, well, there he may be for us to take at 33? If he is, seems like a no-brainer pick. Feels like a 1st round coup (well, more luck, but Holland still had to not screw it up, so good for him) for Detroit, could be some steals in round 2 as well.

Well, at least it wasn't Chicago. Hope Carolina wins. -
No, the only dick moves made this off-season have been made by Holland.

Red Wings sign D Luke Witkowski to 2 year, 750k/yr contract. Will play as F.
Hairy Lime replied to HockeytownRules19's topic in General
I remember when Oliwa crapped his pants when Kocur challenged him and refused to drop his gloves. Oliwa, now, is the head coach of a local hockey team up here in Northern Michigan, the Kalkaska Rhinos. -
Elliotte Friedman says Daley/Detroit might be a done deal, take it for what it's worth: http://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/nhl-free-agency-buzz-rumblings-around-league/
-
I can't remember any. I remember he and Kocur chatting from opposite ends of the ice one game, possibly Parker's first game with the Avs, but I don't think he ever fought a Red Wings players while with the Avs, or ever for that matter.

When that pick came up I thought, Vilardi or Tippett? I wonder who Holland will take? And then he traded back and took Cholowski. No, wait? Listen, I don't know how this Rasmussen kid will pan out, hope for the best; but one thing is for sure, his career will be compared (at least around here) to Vilardi and Tippett from here on out, fair or not - no, totally fair. The same with Cholowski and Chychrun. And I don't know about you, but a future with Vilardi/Tippett and Chychrun is more tantalizing than the one with Rasmussen and Cholowski. But hey, I'll be more than happy to have my reservations and doubts proven unwarranted (I just don't think they will be). Sorry I can't be more optimistic.
-
Can't understand this pick. There must be something about Vilardi we don't know, or maybe Holland has lost his mind. I'm leaning toward the ladder.

Well, looking at Lightning fan's reactions - "Are you ******* kidding me" "Sergachev is overrated. Hate this trade" "Drouin is a once in a lifetime player... mad creative scoring skills. Stamkos can't stay healthy. Would have traded an aging stamkos first" "Im done, Drouin was generational" "Boooooooooooooooooo" "Tell me this is a joke" "I'm actually crying....." "Lol Stevie?" "I cannot believe this. Wow. Just wow. Way to ruin my day. This was so STUPID." "guess who's not a lightning fan anymore" "Wow. We just got fleeced..." "Starting to question our decision making." "And lost a bunch of fans in the process! Horrible trade, absolutely awful. I guess Stevie Y put himself before the team." "This is the worst trade in the history of the franchise. It's Kareem-to-LA bad." "This is utterly embarrassing! Killing the fan base!" - I'd say they aren't too happy. But that's just Twitter, and there were a few who supported it, but it was mostly what you see there. Montreal fans were more positive about it. They hated losing Sergachev, but recognized a need on offense. Haven't looked at what the message boards are saying yet.
