    Because no one's gone "Bobby Knight" on anyone? Most reports of abuse are either of a psychological nature (Babcock) or stem from diversity ignorance or outright racist comments (Peters).
  2. would you put Wings stuff on your mask right now if you were he?

    Jeff Blashill History

    This isn't pre-cap. Team's can't afford to stack three lines and roll out an elite checking line anymore. Guys like Glendenning will find themselves up the lineup all the time. Also, if he's playing against the other teams top lines, he isn't exactly getting forth line minutes now is he. On this team he should be no lower than 3rd line wing. Probably in place of one of the "i" brothers you slotted in on the wing. But then again, AA shouldn't be playing center. Come to think of it, outside of that top unit, your whole line-up is nuts.
  4. I hear Blashill's great with young people hockey development.

    There are (maybe) 10 teams in this league that would use Glendenning as 4th liner.

    I know I know. It was mostly rhetorical. I just wanted to make funny about bald people/coaches.

    All the bald coaches are getting fired (except Babcock with his golden flo.) Anyway, point being, when does our resident cue ball's head roll?

    Howard = Average

    Outside of the two goons going top 2, I'll take these goons - in this order: - Askavov - Stutzle - Drysdale - Raymond

    2019-20 Prospects Thread

    Veleno going to the WJHC Here's some nice things Hockey People Say Nice Things About Joe McIsaac starting top pair with Byram etc Should be a fun tournament with so many or Detroit's A-Level prospects playing. And we're probably going to see this year's top 5 pick play too, whomever that might be.

    Gimme Muh Monthly Yzer-Trade

    AA for Girard
  12. Name me a worse defensemen on this team who has played more games this season than Bowey.
  13. But Bowey sucks the most. Edit: let me rephrase. His games played amount vs suckage factor is through the roof. No one who sucks like he sucks played nearly as much as he has. It sucked to watch. Sucks
  14. Counter. What's the point of bringing him up to Detroit this year for more than 9 games? Also, Bowey sux azzzz

    Wings trade with Coyotes for G Eric Comrie, trade D Vili Saarijarvi

    11/29 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ GDT - Red Wings @ Flyers - 4:00 PM ET

    I see Zadina has 4 shots.
  17. I guess just consider "suck" to be a more general thing than you do. As always, I admire your optimism.
  18. I'm saying we're going to suck. Hard. You're saying we're going to "improve significantly" alllllllll the way from last to 3rd last. Translation: still sux Why are you arguing with me?
  19. A 10 point jump. Right now they have 17 points one third of the way through the season. 10 divided by 3 = 3.3333 I'll round that off for you. This time next year they'd have 4 extra points. 21 points. IF they had those 21 points this season they'd be 2nd last, ahead of NJ by one point and NJ would have 4 games in had. STILL the basement. Like I said. Bottom 5 team next year and probably the following season as well. IMO
  20. Yeah, sure, this team is might improve by 10 points like you said, but to finish 5 - 10 at least four teams would need to be worse and I just don't see who that would be. Like I said maybe the Wild or Kings.
  21. Much better chance that this team is still basement.
  22. Goaltending = disaster Defence = disaster Compete = disaster Forward depth = disaster Expecting a couple of rookie forwards and Seider to turn this around in one season? No chance.
  23. Unless this team has a near-perfect offseason (Laffy + Nielsen/Abby trade + trade for top four D) I don't see any team in the NHL being as bad as Detroit next year. Maybe the Wild or Kings.
