    I too like a highly regarded cocept.

    Who do you root for tonight?

    Obviously a lot depends on the TDL. If NJ gets Markstrom, then I can see them playing with the confidence that we now enjoy. If Tampa Bay gets Hanafin I can see them winning at a better rate than they are now.

    I'm thinking the only guy on the move would be Sprong IF Stevie tables a 3-4 year offer and Sprong says no. I can see a smartest guy in the room GM tossing a late 1st rounder for him.

    Chair Rot just showed why he'll be invaluable in the playoffs by burying Zary in front of the net.

    Been awhile since we've chased a goalie out of the game.

    Interesting evaluation of Sprong. https://lastwordonsports.com/hockey/2024/02/05/tampa-bay-lightning-trade-deadline-red-wings-forward/

    This is a Sportsnet (Canada) trade suggested by a hockey writer who is most likely probably certainly clueless. Forgetting the St Jose angle in this 3-way, would anyone object to Detroit sending Bear-grin, a 1st in this deal? Would Calgary say no? To Detroit Defenceman Noah Hanifin* Goalie Kaapo Kahkonen *Hanifin inks an eight-year extension with Detroit, San Jose retains 50 per cent of the money remaining on his expiring contract. To Calgary Forward Jonatan Berggren Forward Anthony Duclair Detroit’s 2025 top-10 protected first pick To San Jose Goalie Ville Husso Detroit’s 2024 top-10 protected first pick Vancouver’s 2026 third, previously acquired by Calgary Why the Red Wings do it Hanifin isn’t perfect, but he’s a legit, puck-moving first- or second-pair guy. He just turned 27, so an eight-year extension is justifiable for a team desperately trying to become a playoff squad right now. Husso was a free agent play that has not worked out. He’s singed to a $4.75 cap hit through next season. Kahkonen, by contrast, is a pending-UFA with a $2.75-million hit. Detroit is moving off some Husso term and money and can slot Kahkonen — an upgrade on Husso right now — into the mix with Alex Lyon and James Reimer.

    I'm assuming the above deal would be only if Hanifin signs an extension?

    Zegras is a better scorer than Zadina, but even suckier without the puck. No thanks. We need players who muck it up not more perimeter players.

    1/17 GDT - Wings @ Panthers (7:00 PM EST)

    Sure, the game comes at you pretty fast. Experienced players have adapted to that speed and can still make decisions based on who is in net. Apprehension vs aggression is a defenceman pinching vs backing off because of the score, the period and/or faith in your goalie. Or the high forward risking, or not, getting caught too deep in the o-zone. Or keeping Ghost on the PP.....lol

    1/17 GDT - Wings @ Panthers (7:00 PM EST)

    Lyon would get my vote so far. I never played at a high level, but I always found it pretty frustrating when your line and the other lines are busting it 5v5 to not give up any goals while trying to be a +1, only to have a muckin sieve of a goalie take all the air out of your sails.

    Great game for us, but without Lyon, this would have just been another loss where we appeared to play well. Lyon makes the team Not want to let him down.

    Yep, anything can happen, just like Baltimore crushing the 49ers recently. For me, I just can't see Jones being able to run for over 100 yards vs SF which in turn usually puts GB in a 3rd and long more than not. I'll take Lions -9 and SF -14 Git ur predictions in...
