The 91 of Ryans

True. (Zadina's better tho)

Nope. I don't think any GM trades a Larkin straight up for a Hronek at this point. If Mantha can stay healthy and Hronek/Bertuzzi do it all again next year. Then maybe. Except then you're probably looking at at throwing Zadina's name in there too. Even then it will probably be more like 1. Larkin/Hronek 2. Bertuzzi/Mantha 3. Zadina 4. -8. Buncha guys 9. Fabbri

Like I said......

because it certainly isn't one now

Hey man, you asked for a list. I also find it funny that you laugh at WiiM when I see some obviousl similarities between you guys. There is no debate. The new debate is Larkin vs Hronek.

NIce hat. A little tight maybe?

God you are SUCH a fanboy. Find me a list, any list. Or a smart hockey person, or any hockey person, or anyone not named YOU that has Mantha as the #1 best player on the Wings. I'll wait.

He was great post-deadline last year, through the world championships, and excellent to start this season for sure. Maybe in the future he is better than Larkin. But he's not right now. You'd be hard pressed to find a list by anyone (anyone knowledgeable) that would place Mantha as the #1 best player on this team. Only on LGWs would we waste this much time debating something so obvious.

1. Mantha is one of this team's best, yes 2. only you would flip flop between the two 3. the argument cannot be made Which is why all three are better, IMO, than Mantha.

We're not arguing strictly offence. Which you know. But yeah Zadina's pretty good eh?

So what you meant to say on the previous page is "I'm not trading one of this team's best players for........"? Right?

Why don't you go back to losing arguments vs Kip in that other thread and stay out of this!

LOL I'm dumb for saying Larkin is this team's undisputed best player? Get f***ed

You're wrong You're high

LOL In the moment (for example, not 3 years after Smith gets traded to NYR or after Jurco signs a contract to play roller hockey in Malaysia) have you ever admitted you were wrong? You threw "Mantha = best player" into this quote like it was fact. I called you on it and rather than settle on "best goalscorer or offensive player" (which I agreed with) you're still going to try and make the case eh? Seems reasonable. Best players in this order: 1. Larkin 2. Hronek 3. Bertuzzi 4. Mantha There's your debate ya goof.

It's Larkin. It's not "arguably". There's no debate. No one that knows anything would "argue" that Mantha is this team's best player. Except you, I guess. Admit this and let's move on.

most talented offensive player when healthy? maybe yeah but "best player" is what you said and he's not that

So this means that Yzerman should now trade him, as if he wasn’t planning to? And now won’t re-sign him, as if he was planning to? Ryan Hana with the hot scoop. lol

lack of talent, low defensive IQ, s***ty goaltending, s***ty coaching.

We're bad, they know we're bad, they know we know we're bad. Can't hit us there. So attack the one thing that gives us hope - our prospects.

I love it. Eddie and Pierre trolling Wings fans early on : "Zadina might slot into that 4 - 9 forward slot. They're hoping" Zadina proceeds to score two.

Subconsciously dreaming of better Red Wings eras I guess
