Rempe can't really play to the level I'd like... I'd swap Burgers and a 3rd for Kreider 25% retained a 2nd.

This team desperately needs a physical heart and soul guy that can play... I'm not sure who that would be nowadays... I'm thinking on a range between McCarty and Shanny

That's a lot of work... nice job.

3 weeks ago there was pressure... they crumbled... right now they have nothing to play for so the are free wheeling. Ras is a disgrace.

Pure garbage time mirage... all they've accomplished is f%&ing our draft position even more. I hate this team so much.

The 4nations derailed both Larkin and Raymond... be it injuries, sulking, fatigue, whatever the were no the same afterwards. I'm not sure if any other players in that tournament fell off as hard as they did. I agree unless we can add a legit player like Marner or Ehlers... it's time to trade Larkin. We also need to change our management philosophy it's an absolute joke that Cossa and a couple more kids aren't up these last 4/5 games to get a taste of the NHL.

Our mistake was letting Jim Nill walk. Stevie is too conservative... we've missed out because of it. When we had lots of cap he failed to weaponize it first picks. That just the obvious.

That sounds like a toxic franchise... they'll likely be gifted another lotto win as a consequence.

There's lots of smoke for sure!

I know offersheets are likely too bold for Yzerman but I would definitely be in there for Hughes or Dobson. That would free up D prospects for trade.

There are some interesting RFAs this year, especially on D. I wish SY would go wild and sign Luke Hughes or Noah Dobson to an offer sheet. But conservative hockey wisdom says then someone might offer sheet Ed, which might happen anyway.

He's so conservative and risk adverse it's hurting us. 2 guys he passed on that Ottawa took on won the game the other night... Cozens and Ullmark

That's a question the gutless Detroit sports media should ask... but they're too scared to lose access to a forever. 500 team.

We're so fukced no playoffs, no lotto pick, no superstar, cap space tied up in garbage.

But why? What's the point of that trade? Mrazek has another year at 4.25... we just got rid of Husso's contract. Smith is 35 and a pending UFA.
