    2017 Opening Day Roster

    What's sad is you keep saying it for years and years that the "problem is our GM keeps signing people. But he hasn't stopped yet, nor will he

    2017 Opening Day Roster

    Not sure if your lines just serve as placeholders or are legit what you're thinking but Sheahan on second line is a crime. I'd much rather (and I believe Baldy Blash too) would put AA or Abby on there and bring Sheahan down to 4th. Our top 4 defenseman actually look pretty decent to be honest.
  3. And which of the worst record teams in the last 6 or 7 years have won the Stanley cup? Tell us oh wise one. Ah yes that time Arizona won in game 7 of the finals. No wait that time Roy led the Avs to the Cup. Or was it the time the thug on Buffalo won the Conn Smythe after they overcame a 3-1 deficit in the 2014 playoffs. Wait, I've got it, it was when Carolina set a record for going 16-0 in the playoffs bringing the Stanley cup glory back to their home state.
  4. That's precisely why he's a good pickup. He'll be part of the injury cycle with Kronwall, Ericsson. Sproul and XO won't have issues playing

    So then let Russo play over Oullette or Sproul. Since he's so good.

    Get Ready for McDavid Hype Machine

    Definitely lol. Not as bad as NFL or MLB though. At least Hockey is a major Winter Olympic sport. I'd say the only sport that's popular in the US that is popular around the entire world is Basketball.

    Cholowski is not going to be here in a year or two. Also he's not taking anything away from Sproul. He's taking a top 3-ish spot of which Sproul is neither. Hicketts isn't coming in this year or next. Plus if either of Hickets or Cholowski miraculously make it next year. We no longer have Mike Green. Think of Daley as Mike Greens replacement after next year. It's really not as bad as you think.

    Tatar, Athanasiou, and XO's new deals

    Abdelkader kills penalties, fights, throws the most amount of hits on the team. Tatar fights so much and the penalty killing he does is almost Datsyukian level. And don't get me started on the hits he throws. $5.5 million is overpaying. Should be getting Nyquist money nothing more. Nyquist scored 25+ goals two seasons in a row and still got under $5 million from Holland.

    Tatar should get the same contract as Nyquist.

    Ken Holland contract extension watch

    Right, the question is will his contract be extended. Not what people want. We're prognosticating people. No touchy, feely, pissy stuff.

    You don't need to tank to get top 10 pick. Do you think all 10 teams this year actually tanked? No. Holland won't tank. But we'll still end up with a top pick most likely.

    7 people actually think his contract won't be extended. Interesting.

    Zetterberg assists this past season

    Indeed, apparently Mike Babcock shows Auston Matthews videos of Zetterberg; trying to groom him up that way. I don't think he can teach him the looks though. Auston is too ugly. http://detroit.cbslocal.com/2016/11/15/mike-babcock-grooming-auston-matthews-to-play-like-zetterberg/ He's tried the hair it seems.

    We'd have to come up with more size variety then.

    That's what I mean, if he's signing vets and trying to get into playoffs then it doesn't look like he's rebuilding, not in the traditional sense. Looks like he's trying to upgrade to be a competitor. All depends on what the contract is.

    Basically hitting all the points there. To answer about why he's not letting the kids play; probably because they aren't really good enough to be top 4.
