    Its going to be a brave team that takes Patrick first overall if he doesn't start playin g some games

    2017 Draft

    I think if we finish in the 8-10 range I still want Nicholas Hague. The top centres are gone anyways. What is happening with Callen Foote, he seems to be in a bit of a freefall. A couple of places have him going in the 20s now.

    2017 Draft

    So Nico doesn't make your top seven? I think Petterson should probably be included over Kostin who has zero points on the year

    2017 Draft

    I think we need Nicholas Hague in our draft. We have Hickets, Ville, and Hronek coming up. They could max out at 180 pounds each.

    12/20 GDT : Red Wings 1 at Lightning 4

    I think the Carolina game might end up being my fav game of the year

    Mike McKee

    My dream fourth line would be Givani Smith, Mike McKee, and that Kadyakin guy we drafted a few years ago. I don't care if they ever score

    AA

    Can anyone tell me what is happening with him? Has he started skating?

    Mike McKee

    So give the guy a chance. Put him in Toledo. Nobody says he has to be in Detroit right away. If it doesn't work so be It. Even if he was in Detroit he wont score any less than what some of our skill guys are doing this year anyways.

    12/13 GDT : Coyotes 4 at Red Wings 1

    I think those empty seats area cause for concern. Even if the corporations own them it likely means they cant even give them away. People can very quickly find something to do besides watch a boring hockey team. We need a defenseman all right but we cant score goals either. Is it the players or the system they are told to play? We used to outshoot the other team more often than not. Now it seems to be a struggle to get a shot on net. Last night we almost outshot them 2-1 and we still get just one goal. Our skill players aren't getting it done. Something has to change and Blashill is the start.

    Oops...no points for superman last night. In his defense he had to go rescue a cat out of tree in the second period and his cape got caught in the branches

    Mike McKee

    I can hardly wait to wake up in the morning and check the WMU box score against North Dakota. Another goal I suspect. When he comes to training camp next September we can call him The Legend of the Fall

    Mike McKee

    I guess we will see what the Oilers do with McDavid situation. If guys are starting to take liberties with him what do you think they will do. PS When Mike goes swimming the sharks leave the water

    Mike McKee

    He's going to make us all proud with his goal scoring feats this year. Also I heard from a friend of a friend that he hunts bears with just a knife. And the legend continues to grow.

    Mike McKee

    He beat up the class bully!!!!! His legend continues to grow

    Mike McKee

    My original question on this topic was if he was hurt or a healthy scratch. Does anyone know why he has only played two games. At any rate he has two points in two games. He will get 10 goals and 20 points this year. It will force us to sign him and he will be in Detroit in two years wreaking havoc. His legend will continue to grow

    Here's Your 2025 #1 Overall Draft Pick!

    Isnt that a Rangers uniform? They should lose their pick for tampering

    Mike McKee

    I agree with Frank. You might be suprised at how well some of our skilled players would play when they know we have a legitimate, top drawer, enforcer available. It would be nice to have no more cheap shots taken by other teams on our skill players. Lets see how he does for the rest of the year. If he gets 10 goals or so in his final year we have to give him a try.

    Mike McKee

    I agree he doesn't merit a contract from what he has done so far. What if someone else signs him and he starts banging a few Wings around? It will be tough to take. Couldn't we try him out in the ECHL for a year? We tried it with Nedomeil and then let him go when he couldn't prove himself worthy. Maybe he will finish his senior year with 10 goals and it wont look like such a longshot

    So was he hurt or a healthy scratch

    11/23 GDT: Red Wings 2, at Buffalo Sabres 1 (SO)

    Any win is nice but how does a professional NHL hockey team get outhit 34-8. My sons novice team years ago would get that many hits by accident. And it was no contact then

    2017 Draft

    If you had a choice between Foote and Hague, who do you take?
  25. HoweFan

    2017 Draft

    Yeah but once you get by is name it will be hard to ignore someone ho is 6:04 205 and is an excellent skater. He has 33 points in 22 games in the WHL. He may be a top five guy.
