    NHL Draft 2014: First Round

    I definitely don't think there's a conspiracy against us but I do think that Holland sucks at this part of GM:ing.

    NHL Draft 2014: First Round

    Well that and every time we make an offer the other team asks for way more than we want to part with. I have never seen us be offered something like this which is actually reasonable. But then again the wings make less trades by a wide margin than any other team in the league.

    NHL Draft 2014: First Round

    I really wonder how come other teams seem to get away with the cheapest trades ever and we can't do anything without giving up half our team

    NHL Draft 2014: First Round

    We have tons of two way players though some skill and someone who could run a powerplay wouldn't exactly hurt.

    Probably the best possible outcome of the top3-ish teams eh could've ended up with though.

    Adam Almquist signed with KHL club

    I thought he would at least go to camp and give it a shot.

    Next Seasons Needs/Team Future

    Well I think he showed last year that he definitely has the potential to break 30 if he has a good season and yet weirdly enough this is something people hold against him. It's not a little pessimistic to think that a guy who just had a breakout season and who is just 24 won't ever get any better.

    Next Seasons Needs/Team Future

    I don't understand why people always bring up Goose's ppg from last season, he hardly needs to be that incredibly efficient to be a good player for us. If he can score 25-35goals a season I'll be more than happy and that is hardly unlikely either.

    I would much rather they go hard after Kane than jumbo Joe.

    Detroit re-signs Gustavsson 1 yr $1.85 mill

    Howard is definitely a huge part of our problem, he gave up early cheap goals in every single game that we lost.

    Brad Richards bought out by Rangers

    Richards needs to stay faaar away from Detroit thanks... he was awful in the playoffs and got worse the further they got.

    Good I'm happy we brought him back. Now if only we had an elite starting goalie...

    Eaves is OUT in Nashville

    Too bad for him but I can't say I'm surprised.

    Nygren is lame, very low compete level.

    Dan Boyle's rights traded to the Islanders…..

    I'm up for any improvement of our blue line even if Boyle wouldn't be my first choice I'd definitely take him.

    Next Seasons Needs/Team Future

    I'm alright with Holland being careful when it comes to signing a winger but we need need NEED to improve our defense and that just won't happen from within for a couple of seasons at least, we need a legitimate top4 defender to add some stability.
  25. Principal point of contact is definitely the head, it's an ugly hit no doubt.
