    Tony Granato next Wisconsin Head Coach

    Doesn't sound like a promotion to me. Looks like our most important offseason moves are to improve the coaching staff around Blashill. Wings had always been good in finding people that a good if not brilliant at their respective job. I hope the signings of Granato and Firschweiler were the only exception from that.

    Sure. Never said that the changes produced more goals. One doesn't exclude the other. Two examples that stood out to me this season : Our defenseman are allowed to pinch more often. And our center often goes deeper into the zone instead of securing high against breakouts. Smith. By a mile.

    I'd rather give Larkin, Matha and AA some playoff experience than drafting 1 or 2 positions earlier.

    As bad as todays game was I think Blashill is the right coach for this team. He openend the Wings up for a more attractive, offensive style. It might fall flat this year but I take Blashills approach over Babcocks defensive first style any time. And by the way : It's not over yet. We still have all the chances to make the playoffs.

    Very much of our chances depend on what Boston and/or the Isles do tonight. Let's hope that the Leafs and Hurricanes bring their A game tonight.....

    This. It's far from over. Getting scored on three times within around 10 minutes is still unacceptable for a team that desperately wants to get into the playoffs though.

    Coreau called up

    Reasons have yet to be disclosed. I wonder what is behind this. Mrazeks groin again ? Edit : Khaaaaaaaan has it : Not good. Mrazek is one of the if not the reason we are still in the playoff race. Let's hope All Star Howard shows up tonight.
