    Toronto vs. Boston

    Carolina is exceedingly annoying at this. They just constantly slam their sticks down on the sticks of their opponents. You can hear it the entire f v cking game. The problem with the Red Wings is that the GM and coach are too dumb to have a plan for this type of team that differs from the plan against Columbus. They enter every single game doing the exact same thing. When you play teams that are hard on the forecheck and constantly slash and hook, you have to bring a 2 bangers into the game and have them wreck shop for the first 10 minutes. Once the other teams know that the bowling balls are coming, they tend to get a little more focused on not getting smashed. That helps them to UNfocus on slashing gloves/sticks, and grabbing jerseys. The Red Wings don't understand the knife to a gun fight thing. It's frustrating.

    Kane was spotted getting shown a 4.25 million dollar house over off Long Lake Rd today. Hmmmmm

    What about Borje Salming?

    Wants out of Pitts. Should we take him on for a year? He'd come cheap - 2nd or 3rd rounder.

    Reilly Smith

    Ha. You just flipped the money and cap is all. Honest mistake. I really like Reilly Smith's game. I wouldn't mind taking him on for a year. Lots of posters have been griping about our dump and chase game. Debrincat, Kane, Rasmussen, Copp, and Compher struggle in this regard. Larkin and Raymond are really the only guys that can grind a puck off a defender below the goal line or along the boards. One of Reilly Smith's strong suits is his forechecking. If he only costs us a 3rd, we should grab him for a year.

    I wouldn't pay him 5 million. I wouldn't bring him back TBH. Edvinsson is ready for that role, and ASP right behind him. We have (3) good puck movers in Edvinsson/Seider/ASP. Just need to let them move it.

    Even tho he wasnt spectacular 5 on 5 the last 30 games, he was serviceable = not a mess and liability. First 50 games he was dogs***. Agree with u there.

    I gave him enough wood for 2 months! Hope he settles down now. Reverse trolling the troll is fun for a bit too.

    PITTSBURGH IS RETAINING!!! ha We're taking on FULL cap hit and 1/2 actual pay.

    Already posted a million times that Gost during the last 30 games was a lot different than the first 50 games Gost. Already said that minimum 3 times. Selective reading is helping you about as much as your selective watching.

    We'd be paying 1/2. Penguins would be retaining. We'd just be responsible for the 5 mil cap hit.

    If the Pens eat 1/2 his 5 mil, do u take on him and his cap hit for a year?

    I like the way this guy moves in the offensive zone. Wonder if he can play defense.

    https://www.hockey-reference.com/players/c/chiarbe01.html Guy sucks. Colin must have bought a jersey when YzerSCAM signed him, so sorry about that. But this guy is 5 times as bad as Filip Zadina and should be getting whipped like a motherf v cker around here. Colin has a pretty good track record of not fanboying into COMPLETE TRASH players and giving them rope (Smith, Kindl, Mantha, Zadina), so my frustration with this issue is compounded by his getting his panties all wet over Ben. He's a good troll, but I think he honestly believes Chiarot is a good defender. It's baffling.

    Start watching the games next year, Colin. You'll come around.

    I actually think we need to trade Seider, Walman, Edvinsson, Maatta, and THEN buy out Holl AND Petry. Chiarot's Agent - Chiarot Chiarot by himself Chiarot-Chiarot's Agent 1st PP - Chiarot by himself. 2nd PP - Chiarot and Chiarot's agent with goalie pulled 1st PK - Chiarot in net by himself. 2nd PK - Chiarot's agent in net and Chiarot

    I love how you continue to ignore the GLARING BLATANT OBVIOUS RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOUR EYES IF YOU WATCH THE GAMES PROBLEM - BEN F V C K ING CHIAROT. Let's get rid of a guy that played the last 30 games as an even player with Maatta and actually IS the 2nd best puck mover on defense that we have. While I would play Edvinsson over Gost in OT every single time because I think Edvinsson is equally adept on offense and a much better defender, the fact remains that our coaching staff put Gost out there each time after or before Seider. Why? Because that's the one thing he's good at - moving the puck. Holl = +8, best corsi for out of all our defensemen. Passed the eyeball test when paired with Maataa. Zero reason to get rid of Holl until Tuomisto and/or ASP are ready to step in. Petry we're 100% in agreement on. He has to go. What you're doing with Chiarot, though, is the equivalent of blaming Rasmussen, Perron, Veleno, and Berggren while skipping over Filip Zadina. It's that bad.

    I think there's a real good chance that Kane stays. I think he and Debrincat have a relationship that's a lot more meaningful than a lot of us realize. I wouldn't be surprised to see Kane take a 4 year, 5 mil per deal to play out his last 4 years with his buddy. Detroit is nicely situated between his hometowns of Chicago and Buffalo, and he is going to get the ice time he wants on our team due to our lack of talent up front. If I'm Yzerman, I'm saying we want you, but we can't give you 2015 Kane type money. If you can take 2024 Kane type money, you can have it for 4 years. Of course, Kane and his agent are pros. They're not going to turn down 10 mil per for 4 years if another club (Columbus) offers it. That's why they've been hush and saying the typical things through the end of the season.
