    Still better than this season.

    I think the bolded is right but Edvinsson just gotta keep doing what he’s doing and he’ll be playing in a Red Wings uni next season.

    I’m not sure putting three rookies at once next to two sophomore players and Filip Hronek is good prospect management. Loving the hype, though.

    @bIueadams have a good inside scoop on Oesterle. Detroit basically signed him as a favor because a member of his family in Detroit is seriously ill.

    The guy has played one game in the last six weeks. If Yzerman didn't view him as a project I doubt he would have layed down the claim. If the Wings can make him into a NHL regular thats a huge win and the defensive left side is as of right now totally bare going in to next season.

    Detroit now sits with nine defensemen.

    I don't really have any expectations either. But if they're just looking for a stop gap shouldn't they go for a more safe bet? Juolevi has played a total of 10 games this season.

    Could be a good claim. The talent is there. Canucks fans says he got poor work ethic. Panthers fans says his body is broken. Those two are probably related if the former is true. Lets fix him.

    Isn't CRL supposed to be the contrarian on this board? Jack is a great actor. I don't know how you could think that he plays the same character in Cuckoo's Nest and As Good As It Gets.

    Should have traded Erne and kept Svechnikov.

    Under, I hope. I agree with your plan. LHD needs reinforcements bad and the 2C hole needs filling. If Stephen can’t get Trochek or Hertl, Copp could be a good(and cheaper) option.

    People talking about Lindholm is based on a report form The Fourth Period that Lindhiolm have decided to move on from Anaheim.

    I have to check up on Gustafsson when not on my phone. My perception of him was that he is sub par defensively.

    >re-signing Erne was not a bad decision at the time >Erne unfortunally regressed and sucks now >Namestnikov is useful and we should re-sign him I have a guess what we are gonna say about Namestnikov in a year from now. The return must make sense of course. I am not promoting a fire sale.

    2022 Draft / UFA

    Im not too fond of the idea of putting an all u25 d-corps out there. Lindholm fits very good age wise and paying a bit extra shouldn’t be a problem either in the coming years. Yes, we got loads of potenial LHD coming in soon but we got absolutely no one right now. Is Lindholm even considered an offensive defenseman? Asking bc comparisons to Hronek and Gustafsson Has McIsaac been good(and healthy) enough this season to warrant talks of him being a NHL regular next season?

    Lindholm makes good sense for the Wings.

    That was my point. Instead of trading him Yzerman gave him a 2-year contract. Don't make the same mistake again. With the coming influx of young talent these guys are just gonna keep sliding further down the line-up if they stay.
