Nyquist doesn't have much trade value. Probably more than Cleary though.

I also agree with this. The Wings had great chances, but couldn't bury them. That was part of the problem. The other part was the dumbass turnovers.

Washington is the worst team in the NHL right now. As for Holland making a move, I would say no. Reactionary and impulse moves would accomplish nothing. This season is pretty much done. The only move that they could make is to jettison Flip for a different player. they won't get much for him since he is a rental and doesn't have a contract next season, but that would be a start. Either that or if they can sign him for 2-3 million a season, that may be fair. I would rather gut out the season with what we have than trade away our prospects to save a season that is already lost. I trust in Holland and the Wings leadership. They have brought us 4 cups in the last 15 years. That alone should be reason enough to trust in them.

I disagree. Columbus isn't some rec league team. Just because we have two players who are good doesn't mean that we are automatic favorites to win every game.

I disagree, but coming from someone who has never played goalie, I understand your stance.

Wings nation is now in panic mode. I really am glad that the GM and ownership aren't as reactionary as the LGW Forum members. We all knew that the Wings weren't going to be a perennial power in the league this year. Realistically, the Wings were going to be a 5th or 6th place team in the Western Conference. With all the injuries, the Wings are going to be lucky to make the playoffs. Then you factor in there the Wings sloppy turnovers and sloppy play, and its a self fulfilling prophecy.

Kinda hard to fault the goalie on a full fledged wide open chance in front of the net.

Taking the shooter like he should. No one had the guy on the doorstep.

You can thank Brunner for that turnover.

Dear Red Wings, When you shoot from the point, HIT THE FREAKING NET. Thank you.

Mistakes happen. Z was entirely at fault by giving the puck away. The Wings are their own worst enemy. Gotta reduce the amount of mistakes they commit.

With all the injuries, what choice does Babcock have? Maybe he can call up some rec league players or something.

Hell, I will play cheap! I helped my team win the championship in the Summer last year in our intermediate league. So far this season we have only lost 2 games.

This! The roster the Wings had at the beginning of the season was a playoff caliber roster. The problem is injuries, which the Wings have to be leading in man games lost to injury this season.

This. Unless we are willing to mortgage our future for a trade by trading away our draft picks.....which I don't want to do. In the new NHL, you have to rebuild through the draft.

I wonder if we can que the mass exodus of Wings fans from these forums to the Blackhawks or Canucks forums yet. Not yet? Maybe after we barely make the playoffs then.

Fan of the Wings back in the 70s and 80s?

Ah, skewed math. Makes sense now! Carry on!

A few is three. Several is between 7-9

3 is several?

Was that really necessary? Ericsson should have gotten that loose puck. Monster should have also gotten back in position for that shot. Tough OT loss.

Just because you are living in the now. Back when those players left or retired, it felt like the end of the world. Same with Lids retired.

Fixed it for you. Just pick one of the three choices.

Wow, Dats, unbelievable.

Well, the hockey gods giveth, and then they taketh away. Deflection off Anderson.
