    Are...Are We Good Again...?!

    I doubt we're tough enough at this point to win a playoff round. For this reason, I wouldn't want to move ASP to the 3rd pair either through demotion or because of a trade. The kid needs the ice time to get better. If we could really upgrade the left side partner for him with a player that isn't on an expiring contract, I'm all for it. I'm actually really looking forward to next season with Cossa coming up and taking the reins and Kasper and Danielson getting better.

    Are...Are We Good Again...?!

    Watching the WJC and liking the Wings kids so far. Pradel G for Slovakia looks like a Cossa clone, big, moves well and covers alot of net. Svrcek F is hardly noticible so far. Bear F not playing for Canada. Eddie Genborg does it all for Sweden. Size, speed, good vision and playmaking plus he loves to hit people. Max Plante looked okay in game one and really good vs the Swiss. Kid plays a 200' game, great speed and sweet hands. I was getting frustrated with the US play by play guys when they kept focusing on Mooney's scoring attempts and effort, basically showing the kid love. Meanwhile it was Plante who was pulling a Pavel by stealing so many pucks and setting up every chance Mooney had. The kid just has a knack for thievery with great vision once he has the puck.

    2025 Lions Thread

    I feel bad for Lions fans. All of the I feel bad for all Lions fans. Watching Dan calling the offensive plays must be not much better than Morton's calls. Goff has looked so-so for a couple of seasons to me. Soft arm and slower scrambling. Have to agree completely about Ragnow. That is a serious hole. I'm not sure if Detroit had a chance at Dennis Allen or preferably Brandon Staley as DC, but both are better than Sheppard IMO, especially with in-game adjustments. Doesn't help that your GM didn't help Hutch by getting a solid bookend partner for him. Hope you guys don't mind that a Saints first, Lions second fan makes observations about your team.

    Tom Wilson runs over ASP today and every Wing just looked the other way. I mean Jeez, be a teammate and stand up for the kid even if you get punched in the face a few times.

    BearGrin claimed by the Blues. Hope he doesn't turn into Mr. Snipey Snipe for them.

    2025-26 Season All Purpose Thread

    I'm not even sure what a comparable package would have been, but I'm glad we didn't blow our wad. ASP, Kasper and a 1st probably. I just don't know who instead of Ohgren since I don't really know if the kid was a hit or miss being a #19 pick.

    Man I hope ASP is okay. Tanner Jeannot really nailed him into the boards. https://x.com/GinoHard_/status/1994953278220898569?s=20

    20 Games In...What do you like? Dislike?

    Cam Talbot won this game for the Wings. RayRay with a nice move for his goal and DCat nice pigeonhole for the OT winner. We must be the crappiest and scrappiest team all in one, I mean how can our record be this good when we look like crap most of the time.

    GDT: Centennial Season ; Episode 9 - The Blues Travelers

    Kane still out. Dang.
  15. Finnie was awesome at driving the play and playing without the puck in all zones. ASP hitting the crossbar off a Makar type play to the net from the blueline was sweet.

    I watched the highlights of Eddie Genborg's goal on thursday, nice deflection (tip in) from his office in front of the net. Today his team won 2-1, had a goal and assist. Beautiful play giving him an open net pretty well, to score. You don't get those chances unless your line is good and you are in the right spot. His assist was nice as well. The kid is 18 playing in the SHL. He skates really well and is hard to move off the puck, is always moving his feet and plays heavy like MBN. They could be twins.

    New New Prospects Thread

    yeah, I'm not sure what more MBN can do to earn a spot. I'm guessing a Nate, MBN and Mazur top line for GR. Let them stew. They could be a great line. SY can always trade off JVR, Appleton etc to clubs that come out of the gate really slow.

    I think JVR would slow that line down too much. I could be wrong.

    Finnie's line was probably the best imo and he would be the only guy to stay in Detroit. Nobody really looked great other than Gibson. Beargrin looked weak, Elmer was maybe the 2nd best forward. Bear played responsible and Nate a step behind.
