GDT: Detroit Red Wings @ Buffalo Sabres 7:30 PM EDT 10/24/17
Andy Pred 48 replied to ChristopherReevesLegs's topic in General
I know we say its a team game but we have decent forwards, our problem is the D. Cant get it out the zone fast enough or to a team player. The amount of times we cough it up or fail to clear the lines is laughable for top pro players, in fact it can be embarrassing at times. These are basic plays that we cant seem to execute for some reason or other. 5 game skid, but 4 of the next 5 on the road doesn't bode well for our chances. How long will our Chris I let a losing run go before he says enough is enough, maybe there is some locker room unrest and Blash is losing the rooms trust but we need to decide which way/direction we are going because at the moment this rosters form is neither here or there. -
its about getting $ off the books smiffy, if Sheahan was playing anywhere near his potential it would be a no goer, but he's 8 games in and pointless and so unless he has a massive production swing hes the most likely trade chip at the moment, were getting a 3rd back in the shape of Pedan, whom could be a late bloomer and a 6th.Its a numbers game on this one, it maybe a bad trade on paper,but when needs must something has to give.

it was all a biding your time ploy by Kenny and AA! Kenny needed a few weeks to sort out a trade that would be of use to us. AA played ball by stalling on his deal giving Kenny enough time to trigger the trade and be enough under the cap to get AA on board to. We now wait to see what mega deal our GM has pulled off. Sheahan and his $2.1m cap hit to the Pens for 6th round pick and Andrey Pedan. Ouellet and his $1.25m cap hit to the Canadiens for MICHAEL MCCARRON
-
so does Kenny make a trade or waive a couple of guys to get under the cap?

10/16 GDT : Tampa Bay Lightning at Red Wings, 7:30 EST
Andy Pred 48 replied to Hockeytown0001's topic in General
well if we are honest ,Tampa should of been out of sight after the first period. We need to get an upgrade on our D corps fast , 1 would be nice but 2 would be alot better. -
so far after 10 games in the OHL he has 10 goals, if we keep our current form going we have no chance in getting him to suit up with his bro.

10/12 Detroit Red Wings @ Arizona Desert Dawgs | 10 pm ET
Andy Pred 48 replied to NerveDamage's topic in General
Blashill has had Abbey up on the 2nd and Frk down on the 3rd line in practice!! Why cant this guy leave things alone that aint broken yet, he really does confuse the hell out of me. Put Abbey on with Z and Tatar and put Gus on with Frans and Helm it aint rocket science Jeff, on and put Booth back on the 4th with Glen and Riley. -
i dont blame Tatar and Nyqvist, they are second line players and would thrive if they were used in that capacity. Could we alter the lines about to do this without weakening the roster ? At present no, so I dont want Blash playing about with line combos like he did last year, at the moment they are the guys to go with Z. The option of putting Abbey with Z is a good one but who do you put on the other Wing? Larkin Mantha and Frk have got a good chemistry so you leave that alone as the second line, put Nielsen with Tats and Gus on the third line and that leaves you with Sheahan, Glending Helm Booth and Witkowski to make up the 4th and one to go top line Winger. But maybe the answer hasn't signed yet!?

I'm happy for Jimmy, I think that Blash overplayed the top line somewhat, can't do that all year all they'll be burnt out by Xmas. Still 2W next to the Wings we'll settle for that. -

Ericsson again -
jeez ,your right where does the time go
-
mind you they were the teams challenging the Red Wings in our heyday not so long ago
-
funny how his first NHL game was against the team that drafted him and he cold shouldered then and signs for the Devils.
-
yeah, hes not had a lot of ice time in respect but he's looked ok in the main.
-
he's picking it up guys, 2+3 in 4 games now and a +1 as well.
-
what were the names of those 2 Koreans we had over last year at camp?

A couple of my choices are dependent on certain things happening, but this would be my preferred roster if all was well in Red Wing world. I'm going on what i think the front office will go with, against what most of us would like to see. Nyquist Zetterberg Tatar. Mantha Larkin Frk Helm Nielsen Athanasiou Abdelkader Sheahan Booth 13 Glendening Daley Jensen Green DeKeyser Ericsson Kronwall 7/8 Ouellet Witkowski Howard Mrazek Now i know that AA isn't signed and he'd need a few weeks to get back into game shape. So Abbey moves up to take his spot and Glendog goes back on the 4th line. Witkowski is then the spare Fwd. If Kronner is injured Ouellet moves into his spot and Sproul stays up as the 7th D. Jensen gets the top spot purely on his skating ability. I think we have a competitive roster that'll be there or there about's for the 7/8 playoff spot if they all play to their potential and we have alot of bounce back years from certain players.

lets hope so , we need a top D badly

I was hoping Sulak would play again tonight, thought he's looked ok and a lot bigger than led to believe.
