  1. Husso is not the goalie we had hoped. WTF happened to the top line? They were scoring from everywhere. Damn you Lalonde for saying it's not sustainable. Ever since then they haven't won a game.

    Dunno. Is Maatta a better defensive style D man?

    So The Berggerler to GR yesterday. Expect Fabbri announced LTIR soon and Kane signed. Kane - Larkin - Debrincat Copp - Compher - Raymond Sprong - Veleno - Perron Kostin - Rasmussen - Fischer Czarnik Trade scenario: To EDM : Maatta, McIssac, 4th To DET : Evan Bouchard, Xavier Bourgault
  4. They're in molasses. 3 shots on 4 power plays? Debrincat passes up a one timer? Sprong double pumps instead of one timing it allowing Swayman to get in position... ...also I blame Lalonde. After they went to 5-1 he was asked how he felt about his top line. He said they were producing but it'll be unsustainable. He put the voodoo in their head and now they're on their way to a 3rd loss in a row. Blame him for the negativity of this team now.
  5. They don't deserve to win if they don't start playing better.

    If Edmonton is indeed shopping Bouchard, Yzerman should sharpen up the old fleecing tools and give Holland a call. Maybe Ole Kenny is looking for a veteran D?
  7. Well, from the look of Boston, it's safe to assume Ottawa will be getting the 2024 Boston pick this year.

    10/26 - Jets @ Wings - The Joe must go on Edition - 4PM PST

    Well, it was fun while it lasted. Time to s*** the pan for Cole Eiserman.
  9. Ya, get rid of the shootout, it's ridiculous. I believe that BECAUSE of the non stick call, that's the reason The Wings got some quick power plays in the 3rd. I'm betting the refs watched the replay in the intermission and saw how big of a mistake they made. I'm sure they got a talking to today.
  10. Husso made some good saves, but ultimately he let in some stinkers. Horrible officiating aside, Husso lost that game. I think 4 of the 5 goals were bad (for his standards.)
  11. Larkin gets 5 points tonight. Cat 2 more goals, 2 assists. Veleno gets 2, ups his trade value. Kane is sighted at the game and is one step closer to signing.

    FLAMES @ WINGS 5:00 EDT - Joegod edition

    1. If Toronto is out of the race by the TDL and we deal with them, it won't be for Bertuzzi, it'll be Nylander. 2. Trading Bertuzzi got us DeBrincat, so, no, it was not a mistake. Far from it! 3. Yes, choosing Franzen over Hossa was a mistake. 4. I was NOT the security guard. 5. Kane will be a Red Wing.

    Fabbri is done. May as well get that LTIR designation ready. If he does come back, I can see him being dealt. I feel bad for him, but he's just a porcelain doll. Joey V is upping his trade value! He's playing well,but not well enough to break into this top 9. I think he'll be traded this season at some point. I think Yzerman made great moves this Sumner and its working out better than any one predicted. Even Chiarot is looking better. Holl isn't the albatross everyone said he'd be and Petry seems to be a better 6/7 than Lindstrom was. Ghost, Sprong, Compher, all working out great! This is a solid and dangerous team from 1-13 and 1-7. Even Reimer is better than anyone expected. Solid 1/2 goalie combo. Will we Lyon soon to see what he's got? I expect the Kane deal in around 2-3 weeks. The more he sees this team playing like a playoff team, the more he gets excited to play here. Berggers back to GR and Kane in the top line.

    I'm sticking with my prediction of 100 points for Larkin and Cat is gonna flirt with 50. Only 6 games, but Cat and Larkin are leading the NHL in scoring. Who said there'd be no chemistry? Also, I still believe Kane will sign here. 2-3 years honestly.

    Anybody still mad about the DeBrincat trade? The way this team is playing, you may as well bet on Kane coming here.

    sens -Bruins- Us 2024 draft question

    2024 1st round pick (DET) [Conditional]* *Conditions: Detroit has the option to send their own or Boston's 2024 1st round pick. In the event the Bruins' 2024 1st round selection is a top-10 pick, Boston can retain the pick and transfer their 2025 1st round pick instead. Detroit will then have the option of sending Boston's 2025 unprotected 1st or their own 2024 1st to Ottawa. If the Wings and Boston both miss the playoffs, it'll be dicey! If they get a top 10, Boston keeps it and transfers their 2025 pick to us, it's going to be tough to decide whether or not to send them our pick for 24 or Boston's 25 because who knows which one will be closer to #1. My guess is, and prediction is, Boston makes this years playoff, we keep and send the 24 pick to Ottawa unless we also make the playoffs as a higher seed. Then we'll send ours to them. If we make the playoffs and Boston doesn't, no matter what Boston chooses (if it's top 10) I believe we send our 24 pick, because the 25 pick will be unprotected and if Boston continues a slide, we could get some lottery luck with that! But I am confident, Boston is going to make this years playoffs ahead of us, and their 24 pick will be going to Ottawa. You also have to remember, it's Boston's choice whether they keep the 24 pick and give us the 25. IF they get a #10OA pick, they could still opt to let Detroit keep it if they feel they'd even get a better pick in 25. (which means if they do get a top 10 pick in 24, they could sell, sell, sell over the summer and actively tank for an even better pick in 25.) Which would mean, we'd have to choose to give them a top 10 pick no matter what in the 24 draft. I'd take our pick right now, and trade it to them outright for Shane Pinto, because they are in no way going to be able to afford to sign him. Then the only question is if Ottawa gets Boston's 24 or 25 pick.
