    IMO it was a non-reputable source, which was I didn't post the link. The writer claimed that Detroit is in desperate need of center-depth... he probably also thinks we need LH shooters too...

    Yeah I'm not seeing this Vancouver rumor anywhere, also we don't own the #31 pick... Only rumor I see is Vancouver is willing to part ways with #7 and that Holland has called to ask about Brandon Sutter

    "Donald Trump bringing his slaves to market circa 2018"

    Gandhi and MLK both preached love and understanding, even towards ones enemies. I feel pretty confident saying both would probably meet with president Trump if invited to, assuming you believe they'd share DSP's opinion (I'm not confident they would) Malcolm X was admittedly racist and advocated for segregation of blacks and whites for most of his life. He would probably have more of a problem with DSP... what with playing on a hockey team full of white guys and all. Didn't the founding fathers all own slaves? That's fair. It's a different situation than Tim Thomas. Tim just strongly disagreed with Obama politically. But the keyword in your sentence "He thinks the guy is a racist" is thinks. Wanna know for sure? Maybe go meet the guy, see what you think? IDK, I tend to side with the open minded on most things (not hockey). Anyway, I maintain that I think it was a mistake on Tim's part, and that it will be a mistake on DSP's part if he chooses not to attend. If his goal is to be divisive and stoke Trump's base, then by all means don't attend, you're just making the man more of a martyr for the political right.

    Smartest bit in this thread. Every time you kneel during the anthem, you grow Trumps base. Every time you air an episode of a comedy show that bashes Trump for 30 minutes, you grow Trumps base. Every time you make a simple white house ceremony political by refusing to attend, you grow Trumps base. What is Trump's base?... Conservative? Racist? That's up to your personal POV, but regardless, these actions feed the beast.... The man ran a campaign (and is still running a campaign) as the "attacked man". The media, the FBI, the republicans, the democrats, according to him they're all out to get him... and the more you pile on the stronger his stance as "the attacked man" becomes. To me this point should ring true whether you love him or hate him.... Yes, people absolutely cared when Tim Thomas didn't attend and made the whole thing political. What timeline are you living in? I thought it was really stupid of Thomas at the time, and I think it will be pretty dumb of DSP if he makes the same mistake. Let's just say I don't care for Obama... However, if Barack Obama invited me to the white house to congratulate me on a championship win, you're goddamn right I'd go. I'd shake his hand, smile for the camera, and exchange pleasantries, because that's what grown adults do. At the end of the day, no matter how much Barry O and I disagree, were both still Americans and we can put personal politics aside to enjoy an afternoon ceremony together. Tim Thomas lacked the maturity to do this, and is therefore IMO a big ol dingus. If DSP doesn't go, that's his prerogative. I just think the end result will be the exact opposite of what he's trying to achieve.

    I think that rumor naturally comes with being a Michigan guy. There were also some quiet Bylsma rumors when Babs left. Here's another coaching rumor from Friedman "Mark Hunter, involved in almost as many rumours, has been linked to Detroit, Montreal and the Islanders. We’ll see. He’s (officially) unavailable until July 15."

    All I heard was Blash really liked his game and thought Sulak would likely be right up there with Hicketts and Hronek in competition for a spot right out of camp.

    Yet you make no mention of the 4 other boat anchors (Abdelkader, Helm, Glendening, Nielsen) taking up 14 mil plus per. Kronwall, Ericsson, and Dekeyser are the least of our problems.

    He's definitely a nice 3rd pairing piece. Affordable, RH, and very mobile. Exactly the type of player a contender will want to take on at the deadline. Which is exactly why he should be traded to a contender at the deadline. Trust me, if I was confident this team was going to contend this year I'd be singing the opposite tune, but we more than likely won't be. We should be focused on acquiring young core players, and draft picks that can become young core players. Jensen is neither young, part of the core, or a draft pick, which makes him completely expendable.
