    2025 Trade Deadline March 7 - Playoffs? Buy or Sell or Build?

    If he's officially sent down "on paper" then no, he is back to AHL wages. EDIT: And he's not really losing money per say. He'll still going to be paid NHL wages for the time spent on the Detroit roster. Even if he spends the rest of the year in GR from here on out he will have gotten roughly 570K out of the max potential 886K he could have earned this yeae. Pretty good.. and pretty sure he'll end up a lot closer than that once he's back up.

    One of my goals for 2025 is being more accountable. Not just being more accountable myself, but also holding others accountable as well. Brad Marchand is a forward for the Boston Bruins. You may have noticed some of his antics over the years, but like me, you kept the peace and your mouth shut. Now read this: https://xcancel.com/reporterchris/status/1890458915625709778?s=46&t=_XjleMNZelg_AVmJy7FfWA Quite frankly, I don't think this is enough. You don't get to just say sorry and go back to your mansion, not in 2025, no thank you sir. Brad Marchand has to go to jail. He needs to be brought up on charges in the hague and serve no less than 10 years for what he and his teammates have done. And cancel international hockey while were at it. Sorry Gary. You invited the nerd leaf kid to play and now, because of him, no one gets recess. Brad even admits: "THESE GUYS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH POLITICS BUT WE BOOED THEM ANYWAY" P U T H I M I N J A I L Why is he not in jail? No more games. Lets hold people accountable this year. We can't tolerate this kinda crap anymore. How many 12 year old American hockey kids went home that night and put a gun in their mouth? How many tried to OD on pills? Even 1 is too many. This is not good enough Brad.

    Very underrated player. Gets ignored by the media because Seattle is a small market and he isnt a superstar that can carry the Kraken. But he's quietly very good. Get.

    It is. And booing a tribute to a nations soldiers is another level of f***ed up. American soldiers have done far more for the free world than Canadian ones could ever dream of. Shame on them.

    2025 NHL Draft - June 27-28 ; To Tank or Not To Tank

    Anybody who passes on Haoxi Wang is going to regret it. He's easily going to be the #1 talent in this draft, in a redraft, in a few short years. He's barely 17 and he's already 6'6" and 215lbs, and he's the best skater in the draft. HES THE BEST SKATER IN THE DRAFT. His offense is going to explode out of him when he hits 19 or 20. SY should take him in the first round regardless of draft position. You don't pass on guys like this.

    Not liking our prez isn't a good reason to disrespect our national anthem. Totally classless.

    News From Around the NHL *Mod warning page 75*

    Since I was a boy I've always stood and sung Oh Canada along with the Star Spangled Banner. Canada has one of the better national anthems, and I can sing it by heart. I can't even name the name of another countries anthem. So to see petty Canadian fans actually booing the star spangled banner is disheartening. Tariffs aren't personal, it's business. But petulant canadians have now made it personal. You need us WAY more than we need you. Act like it.

    Overrated Skills

    Poor example. For everytime u post McD getting stopped dangling on a drive, you can post 10 more where he doesnt. In general I somewhat disagree with the basis of the entire argument at hand. Dangling doesnt benefit most players. But it does absolutely benefit the elites ones. Because Its a secondary skill. Skating will never be considered overrated because its so essential to the game. Its a primary base skill every player needs. Dangles arent. Plenty of players can hash out careers without basically ever attempting dangles. But for a player like datsyuk or McD, dangles help take them from good to unreal. It's is like saying air scoops are overrated because most cars dont need them. Youre absilutely right, an air scoop on a drew miller dodge chrystler is retarded. But on a Datsyukian Lambo its pratically necessary to cool the engine. The inverse is hits. Is it overated? IMO probably more so. Why? Cause ever regard on the block can do it. Its also a secondary skill, but its way easier to run into someone than artfully dance around them. Which is why every 4th liner in the league is trained and able to do it. Hits also dont usually directly cause anything. Whereas dangles often lead directly to a scoring chance or goal.

    If you want the best mentor for Cossa, that's easily Talbot. A lot of expierence at the NHL level, at a lot of different teams, in a lot of different scenarios. And he seems to be well liked, trusted, and has aged gracefully. Lyon offers none of that. And while closer to his prime, IMO, he has just as much risk of falling off a cliff that an aging Talbot has. IMHO Wings would be stupid to keep Cossa off the roster next year. Its the final year of his ELC, and we will likely be signing Augustine this spring/summer. Trey is making the NCAA and world juniors his ***** this year. He will absolutely need to be elevated to a higher level. Talbot has 1 year left and Cossa can take Lyons spot inorder to pass the GR net to Treydog. Therefore we get a year to elevuate Cossa at the NHL level b4 commiting to a bigger contract for him. Which will be very important considering Augustines current trajectory. In the end, I do not forsee Cossa lasting as a wing for too long... he'll probably earn a 2-3 contract after next year, but he'll be trade bait at the end of that contract, cause it's going to be treyday sooner than anyone realizes.

    Because it's so simple to build a competant defense. Which is why the Wings definately havent failed to do so for over a decade and counting. You black and call pots kettles too?

    HF Boards Brigade

    This place lacks drive, purpose. We need a mission. An event. A laugh. Holidays are coming up, and a lot of you will be bored. Traveling to see family. Watching A Christmas Carol for the 3rd time that day. Listening to your regarded Aunt Bethany rant about how RFK JR is going to ruin the pizza hut stuffed crust pizza because he's literally communist hitler. And staring at your phone. Bored. Why don't we do something fun instead??? A field trip!!!! What we do is spend the next few days/week organizing here and coming up with ideas, then sometime during these upcoming holidays we pay a visit to our friends at HF Boards. Make some bait threads. Post some cheeky comments. Good ol fashion trolling. Nothing offensive or over the top. But just enough to rustle their jimmies, get some LOLs, and generally disturb the hive. If we stay coordinated and on message, we as a brigade may not even get banned... depending how far we take it. Here's what you need to do if you want to join in the fun: 1. Make a burner account at the HF Boards soon. One you don't care about getting suspended or banned. Then over the next few days/week post a couple times with the account. Dumb stuff like "LGRW!!!" in the GDT will do. This is so when we strike we don't appear like we made all our accounts 5 min beforehand. And if you have time, heck create multiple accounts, so you have a backup when the ban hammers start to fall. (Was also thinking we should coordinate our account names. A lil wink wink to all the former LGW users that are over there. I was thinking using old memorable LGW names would do. Handles like MindFly, Buppy, Crimson, TheAxe, HillBillyRedWings, would be funny and a clever nod that it's us pulling the ruse.) 2. Show up on the date and time of the brigade. Even if you don't have much to contribute or don't want to participate a lot, we still need support replies. Accounts that respond to fellow brigaders bait posts with stuff like "I actually think this guy has a point here". It helps to gaslight the users over there and give the brigade a sense of faux credibility. That's it. Anybody want to play? BUT NUMBER9 I DONT WANT TO GET MY IP ADDRESS OVER THERE. Walk over to your modem, unplug it, plug it back in, you now have a new IP. Enjoy. BUT NUMBER9 IM NOT A MANCHILD ******* THAT ANTAGONIZES OTHERS FOR LOLS. Well I am. And also that place deserves it. I've attempted to play by the rules over there multiple times, and always get banned for the dumbest reasons. Give them your detailed thesis about why Zadina wont be an NHLer 1 year into his career = banned for trolling. Have a civil disagreement about a player with a mod = banned, no reason given. Heaven forbid interesting or differing opinions should exist in their safe hive mind. BUT NUMBER9 I ALREADY POST THERE AND I WILL WARN THEM THAT LGWS EVIL NEFARIOUS ATTACK IS INCOMING, HA YOURE COOKED! Do it ya coont. You're not gonna be able to warn the lot of them, and we'll be hours into a brigade b4 a mod stops in to clean up our mess.
