Same team as the last two years. The defense just bumbling and fumbling the puck around in their own zone. Very hard watching this and it is only the first game. Almost reminds me of the Tigers they have to score 5-6 goals just so their bullpen/defense can't blow it. If they make the playoffs it will be barely and it will be another quick exit.. Even with Kronwall back that is just adding another above average player. He is not that great any more. He is still good and all though.

Is anyone expecting much? Not me.

It seems like the red wings always try and do everything on the cheap like signing older players that might bounce back but probably will not. Reminds me of the Mets in baseball to a lesser extent because the red wings are aways at the cap but I guess it is just because they always have a lot of money tied up in players that do not deserve it like erickson and franzen to give recent examples. This will not make sense to most people but its like people that stream video games and are always trying to find the new hot game but never do so they are always playing a no name random garbage game and never get viewers. Just play a good game people like and you will get more viewers. aka stop trying to find a diamond in the ruff and maybe start overpaying for players that actually have shown they produce not overpaying for players like ericcson or green.

Its not about hating nielson or anything it is about the true needs of this team never getting addressed. The sad thing is this is all we will get. The team needs a SOLID D'man that can play Defense not just turn the puck over everytime even though everyone tells us they are a puck moving defenseman. And also we have not had a real sniper that can just score goals since Hossa and it has been an obvious hole. Seems a pretty safe bet the playoff streak is over this year.

Everyone prepare for that feeling just like the last few years.

ugh another erickson bad signing. I like help but is is on the backside of his career.

Habs robbed Nashville in this one. Everyone overrates Dman so much if they put up offensive numbers.

Kind of greasy to exploit his death this quick and bully the owner. I dont like it.

Free agents or trade what do the Red Wings need most.

The last thing we need us another defenseman thatturns it overall day like smith and green. Erickson is pretty much a wasted contract and he turns it iver a lot also. Kronwall is still good but has noticeable fallen off. A solid stay at home defenseman would be amazing. P.S.i would bet big money kenny brings back richards. He always gives them one more year when its obvious to everyone they are done.

I would love if they could swing a Defensive D-man and a sniper. On Defense they have so many so called puck moving defenseman yet all they do is turn it over. A stay at home d-man would be nice. Not sure on the cap numbers maybe if they can move howard or a nyquist.

It really should be Little Caesars Coliseum. That would take a dumb name and make it epic. Coliseum for a hockey building. NUFF SAID!

I can't stand divers. I would take the C away for that forsure. I dont follow the kings. I really wish the Red Wings would move nyquist also. He is embarrassing the way he dives all the time.

lol 2 cups not good enough he gets the big F.U. Being a captain doesent mean you have to be your teams best player. That being said I know nothing (jon snow) about the kings or brown so maybe he is a bad guy. idk.

It is going to be so awesome!!! I really don't understand why everyone thinks little caesars arena sounds so dumb. I mean yeah compared to Joe Lewis Arena or Illitch Center its dumb but its America and that is how it is. I mean at&t park, minute maid park and heck even Comerica. They are all stupid sellout names. I feel its just because the little caesars commercials are really lame and cheesy. That being said those xfinity commercials are the worst ever. I still think Illitch Center would have been the best. Even Little Caesars Center would be cool. The LCC has a nice ring too it.

This year I wanted far less hockey than I have in over 10 years. You can not even get excited for a goal anymore because you just have to wait for it to be reviewed. So many times they cant even get the replay call right. They have slowed down and made the game much less exciting. Baseball is doing the exact same thing.

That would be awesome but I don't think so.

That was cool and then they said sabers hurricains lol

I like it. Kind of looks like Aresnal.

Doesent matter how it turned out. It still made them look like fools. Crosby especially. I never liked Crosby because he never earned that C. That being said. DeKeyser should get it but Ericcson will get it just because he is still under contract for 100 years at 4.whatever million a year. My god that contract is garbage.

what does everyone think the % on resigning Richards is? It is so kenny style to resign him for no reason. I say 70% chance he is back even though it makes no sence. The Red Wings need a few d man that can actually play defense. We have guys like Smith, Green and Erickson who just turn the puck over almost everytime. If they cant move the puck without turning it over and can not even play D at all what good are they. Smith has no place in the NHL at all except maybe as a 4th line winger. Also the Red Wings havent had a scorer since Hossa left. Just someone that is a sniper and nothing else. We always have a team full of playmakers and nobody to put the puck in the net. 1 cheaper sniper and 2 Stay at home solid Dmen. Somehow make it happen. Trade Howard and maybe Nyquist. A buyout on Erickson would be amazing but obviously a pipe dream. Defense is where the team really lacks. Kronwall has taken a BIG step back in play also with his age.

I personally loved watching the 10:30 games so I wanted them to stay in the west. The problem is just the team isent very good. I mean our Defence is a complete joke. Probably would not even have lucked into the playoffs in the west. WHo can say. Sucks becuase this team is really close too being good. We just need like 2 guys on D that can actually play D and not turn the puck over everytime it touches them.

If you throw one after the national anthem I think you will get kicked out. You need to buy a ticket and bring someone who doesent mind getting tossed before the game starts.

I would say 30- or 40% tops now. It doesent really matter what they do just need someone else to mess this up as bad as detroit.

Been missing a scorer since Hossa left. And the D needs some guys that can actually play D not just move the puck or should I say turn it over.
