    2017 Draft

    Your argument was Canadians have more heart, and all things equal that makes them the better selection. That is what most posters took exception with not that we need high end players. That's a given. Larkin has been very good over the last month. It is starting to appear that he is breaking through the sophomore slump.

    The "D" isn't very good... in this draft

    I was referring to the collusion between Bettman and Pittsburgh. As in if Pittsburgh were in our shoes this season...

    Yes, so in theory (if we were Pittsburgh) could still get the #1 overall. Realistically we need to hope one of Middlestadt or Tippet fall to 6/7...

    The reason I picked the Abrams is because they are good at tanking in any situation. The Wings were good at tanking when we all wanted them to win, and now when we want them to tank they suck at it.

    Gotta give Blashill a little credit for double shifting Mantha in OT

    2017 Draft

    Mackel is right the Canadians on our team have way more heart and "grit" than guys like Zetterberg, Tatar, Larkin, Abby, Kronner and etc... "Canadian hockey players hearts are 1.25 X the size of every other nationality. It's science."- signed Ron Burgandy

    He isn't that much better than Babcock-light

    GDT 3/12/17 New York Rangers @ Detroit Redwings

    You could add a lot more players to that list with Kronner. Mantha must have done/said something that we don't know about other than have defensive lapses.

    So Blashill is a as long as you try you get a trophy kinda guy. Probably why we're last place in the east...

    2017 Draft

    I think we should take a center with our first pick. I know Larkin is young, but he has shown nothing to make me think he could be a good center let alone a top line center. AA may develop into a top 6 center but that leaves us needing another.

    On a better note, Malkin got his a** kicked by Wheeler tonight...

    Looking ahead at expansion draft

    That's lame
  15. While I don't think Nyquist sucks I also don't think he is very good either. Realistically he is somewhere in the middle. I am waiting to see if he lives up to his contract when he gets a new coach.

    Time for a reset/restore

    I would just stop replying to him there is no hope. You're a really good poster trying to rationalize with the Kim Jong Un of the board.

    2017 Draft

    If we pick 4th I would take Vilardi, Mittelstadt, Rasmussen, Tippett in that order. I think Tippett being so one dimensional may hurt his stock, and project him as more of a 2nd-3rd line RW.

    Grade the deadline

    We don't have a three goaltender problem. Howard is hurt, and when he returns Coreau is sent down.

    Grade the deadline

    I am happy overall

    2017 NHLTrade Deadline Discussion

    So we get Ericsson 2.0 and a 3rd. Definitely underwhelming but kh did ok with Jurco and smith.

    2/28 GDT - Red Wings 3, @ Vancouver Canucks 2 (OT)

    You just blew my mind. Does Netflix stream the games live?

    2017 NHLTrade Deadline Discussion

    There is definitely a 3-9 chance that Babcock made that trade.

    2017 NHLTrade Deadline Discussion

    I hope the comments that Holland is trying to renegotiate Smiths contract is just an attempt to raise the price tag. If not, this season is going to be the norm going forward. Signing middle of the road NHL players to long contracts is not a great strategy in regards to a rebuild. What's scary is I don't think the organization believes a rebuild is needed.

    2017 NHLTrade Deadline Discussion

    This is exactly the type of thinking that got the organization into the situation it's in. He would get more than a 5th, more likely a 3rd. It would be a terrible idea to tie up more significant cap space on a 3rd pairing defenseman during a rebuild. Let alone they have to structure raises to AA, Mantha, Larkin, and Jensen.
