Did u just randomly hit keys on ur keyboard?

I don't trust any player with one of those hyphenated last names.

I wouldnt consider those trades as getting "fleeced". Those are exactly the kinds of trades you make when ur bolstering ur roster for the playoffs. You could argue that they were "ill advised" or trades that Holland shouldnt have made, but the assets gained vs. the assets lost was not a fleecing. Pretty much what teams give up on TDL deals for players of that caliber. The only time I would say Holland ever got "fleeced" was giving up a 1st round pick for Kyle Quincey. Even then, I think he knew he was paying too much.

He tutored under Holland.

Top pair D > 30 goal scorer. Sorry if u guys dont understand that. And all of our trash isnt going to get us that. So glad we have a competent GM who understands that you have to give to get and u cant acquire talent with garbage.

Below average for an italian.

I want a BB to go with our AA and DD.

That was a very weak slap. Lol. I would expect a guy from wife beater country to do better.

Of all the guys I've mentioned, the one I think will turn out to be the best player is Lafreniere. I was noticing this kid back in 2017. He's that special.

Middle 6 forward who can be moved up and down the lineup based on need. Competent, but doesn't excel at anything. Russian Helm with better hands and lesser wheels.

Kakko and Byram will both be better than Hughes.

Yes. Kronwall had an ACL and MCL repair. Stevie's injury was a little different. He had meniscal tears. But knee injuries, in general, are bad news.

No Dahlin, Svechnikov, Hughes, Kakko. You owe us LaFreniere next year NHL.

That would explain a lot about that city.

Its gettin hot in herr.

Would anyone trade Zadina and our 6th to move up into the top 3 meaning that we get Hughes Kakko or Byram? I feel like we should get the Pennsylvania Fish and Game Wardens involved with this.

Lol. I would love to see that.

No. It would be called "Kicking Tires in the Motor City"

I thought a "jerking" motion was also required to be ticketed for that. Dont know how else they could say u were snagging fish.

1. The whole comparing players and their draft positions is a fool's errand. If a guy drafted in the 3rd round turns into a 90 point player and a guy drafted in the top 10 turns into a 70 point player, does that make the 1st rounder a bust? That's silly reasoning IMO. 2. What are reasonable expectations for Zadina? I would argue a 30 goal/ 60 point player is reasonable IMO. If he becomes a 70 point or PPG guy, that's a bonus for me. Has anyone really seen enough at this point to say, with any reasonable argument, that he won't become that? I haven't. So let's be real, and wait for real evidence (not conjecture) before we declare anything, shall we? 3. Players develop at different rates. Comparing Zadina to Larkin is completely ridiculous. Some guys make the NHL right from the draft and never become more than average NHLers. They peaked sooner and everyone expected them to continue to progress. Other guys flounder in juniors, overseas, and/or the AHL for a couple seasons and manage to develop into superstars. They're late bloomers. Every guy is different. Comparisons are inaccurate and unfair. FiFY. Maybe he should filiPinch them.

And like a washing machine, people would praise the manufacturer for it lasting so long. Only haters of that particular brand would poo poo on it.

Yes?

Being a wings fan isnt a part time- full time thing. You're either a Wings fan or you're not.

I would call it a decline. It was inevitable. No dynasty lasts forever. I dont get why this team, going thru the same cycle as everyone else, is fodder for the masses.
