    Mrazek "Maturing, could bounce back like Howard"

    Wish I knew his name because this is the best description of Petr I've heard so far. Glad you're coming around.

    Tatar, Athanasiou, and XO's new deals

    Tatar is not much better than Filppula or Hudler during their tenure here. If they can walk, he can walk.

    Tatar, Athanasiou, and XO's new deals

    When will he realize that these big/long contracts to players like Tatar/Abdelkader/Helm/Dekeyser/Nielsen are killing this team?

    Tatar, Athanasiou, and XO's new deals

    Yes, but Dickie says he has a great attitude and relationship with the team, so he deserves it

    If we are going to make the Red Wings great again, we must find a final solution for the bohemian problem on this team. Dirty communist slovakia touchers.

    Yeah I'd say beast mode Franzen was a 1st liner, post concussion Franzen was not.

    Tatar, Athanasiou, and XO's new deals

    I see him as a 2nd line winger, so if a 2nd/3rd line guys is average, he's a above average. I wouldn't call him a top line guy. In my mind those guys are noticeable difference makers almost every shift like Datsyuk, Zetterberg, and Hossa. Tatar I think is more of a Filppula, Hudler, Franzen type.

    That's just business though man. At the end of the day theyre not a sports team. Theyre an entertainment company. And their primary area of entertainment is Detroit, and the surrounding area of Michigan. Honorable mention to southern Ontario. Having guys on the team who are originally from 2 towns over from you, who played for the college you graduated from, helps build a connection with your average customer. I think it's fair to say youre a bit more cynical than an average customer, and we are all a bit more involved than an average customer. If i was in the driver seat in 83 I totally would have drafted LaFontaine. You can sell that. Fans eat that up. Can you imagine what would happen if you drafted Yzerman with LaFontaine still on the board, and Pat turns out better? Youre fires. Fortunately the Red Wings were not able to make that decision and Yzerman turned out better.

    2019 Free Agency Class

    They obviously won't all make it to UFA, but this FA class is more loaded than usual. I could see 5 to 7 of these guys hitting FA in 2019. Drew Doughty Erik Karlsson Oliver Ekman-Larsson Ryan McDonagh Ryan Ellis Wayne Simmonds Artemi Panarin Logan Couture Matt Duchene Joe Pavelski Tyler Seguin Max Pacioretty Jason Spezza Mats Zuccarello Jeff Skinner Blake Wheeler Adam Henrique Jakob Silfverberg Derrick Brassard Jordan Eberle Mikko Koivu Too bad Toronto will likely sign all of them

    beers!

    If you like the High Westified I really recommend the Lagunitas "Will It" if you can find it. They only made a limited quantity this spring (The Lagunitas Brewery near me already ran out) and won't be making more till December, but it's very similar to the High West and super good. Yes, from Cali. I'm sure you'll be able to find it in LA, Lagunitas has gotten pretty big and is expanding out of California now.
