    Berggren with the dagger out of the box.

    We are currently a top five team in the NHL in the looks department.

    You did. But do you have a horse in the race on this “who’s the best looking Red Wing ever” debate?

    Well nobody ever said Trudeau was elected because of his political acumen. But he’s the face that runs the place you know what I mean?

    Columbus is a good young team. They’ve got some talent.

    Alex Lyon is for sure the best looking dude to ever play for the Red Wings. Like, by a pretty good margin too.

    If you die in Canada do you die in real life?

    If there’s not a fight in the third period then SY should trade every player we have over 6’1, 200 lbs. You CANNOT get humiliated by the worst team in the league and not at least make them bleed for it.

    Husso gave up like 6 goals last night in the AHL. Bring back Cossa? Real question: How bad would a player need to be in the offensive zone before Lalonde wouldn’t play him? Like, do you think he’d still play Tyler Motte even if the dude hadn’t scored in two seasons? Three?

    Literally one injury to our defense and we have William Lageson on the ice. You cannot tell me Yzerman doesn’t need to shoulder the responsibility for this lost season. SY gutted our organizational depth on defense for…some reason?…and now we have at least four defenders on the ice who are collectively somehow WORSE than Olli Maatta. I thought his mandate was to be better defensively? The PK tho? Thats on Lalonde and co. Woof.

    Sweet feed by Berggren on Veleno’s goal there.

    First game of a home and home with the Habs. I’m hoping for some rough stuff tonight so it’ll be a bloodbath tomorrow night.

    I'm encouraged by the fact that all the worst players on our team are old and on short term contracts, that's about all I can say for the Wings right now.

    Whelp, at least Ras came to play. I’ve been loving his game lately. Otherwise everyone was underwhelming.

    Yep, getting lit up. Wings looking solid against a hot Montreal team tho.

    Rasmussen makes a helluva play to Motte on the goal there. He’s been on fire lately.

    Nice short side goal by Kane there.

    Red Wings 2024-25 Season Catch All

    Aside from Cozens I’d also really like to land Alex Tuch from the Sabres. And Jiri Kulich.
  19. This would be a good win for us after the Toronto game. The Flyers are only a decent team, but they play really hard and make it tough to beat them (kinda like the Islanders). If we can beat a high end offensive team in Toronto and then outwork Philly for a win tonight you'd have to think the team would be happy with the progress. You HAVE to be able to beat tough teams to win anything in the NHL.

    12/18/24 GDT: Detroit vs. Filly: Part Deux

    Ristolainen is a big boy, but hardly a guy Edvinsson shouldn’t fight when next we play Philly. He needs to let them know he’s not going to tolerate that sh*t.

    Red Wings 2024-25 Season Catch All

    If we make the playoffs because of unsustainably high levels of play from guys who aren't going to be around long (Kane, Tarasenko, Chiarot, Talbot, Gustafsson, etc.) then it's probably a bad thing. But if Larkin, Seider, Raymond, Edvinsson, Kasper, Debrincat can somehow drag us into the playoffs you'd have to think it's a good thing. Don't we WANT those guys to be team leaders who excel at playoff level hockey?

    Puljujarvi 2.0 Hard pass.

    12/18/24 GDT: Detroit vs. Filly: Part Deux

    Kane is a liability at 5 on 5. Give his easy minutes (and Tarasenko’s too) to Dcat and Berggren, trade the old guys, and bring in Cozens and Crouse. Cozens for Kane, lottery protected 2025 1st, and Berggren. Crouse for Shai Buium and a 2nd

    Yep, I’m happy with that period. Gotta figure Philly gets a powerplay or two here in the third.

    Edvinsson gone for the game. Ugh
