WingsallTheway

I don't think we can ever compare Tyler Bertuzzi to Shea Weber and Jamie Benn....

It's ok that just means the potential for ducks/wings finals!

Cleary. Hate that guy.

We thought to a vict'ry we'd cruise
And that Blash should be fired should we lose.
But the folks that do know'im
Said "Don't write a poem."
So the injuries shall losses excuse.
I wrote you a poem anyway.
You're welcome.

Richards = Emmerton
Obviously not haha but yeah I've been totally unimpressed. His backcheck during a goal the other night was just horrific

Me too, and you're right, we always did. But the "switch" wasn't as powerful as last night during the second half of the second period. in past years I genuinely think the Wings just weren't able to play much better, due to system and some holes in the lineup. We weren't that strong but also not that young the past seasons, so I think a lot of our loss has something to do with the age and experience of some of our players.

Have you been paying attention to concussions for the past 10 years?
He missed 1/3 of last season from symptoms (from a tap to the chin) and complained of symptoms all off season
Came back for 2 games (with seemingly minimal contact) and hes out again. It does NOT look good for mule.

I didn't say he was for sure done but it doesn't look good. Franzen has been very stubborn throughout this whole concussion ordeal. The thing with these head injuries is its totally on the person who's having them to call the shots, theres no way of a doctor telling if he can or can't play because theres only "symptoms"
If he just sat out (8 months?) and comes back for 2 games and doesn't even get hit and hes facing symptoms again, what's going to happen when he actually gets hit in the fastest game in the world?
Pronger's and Savard's symptoms never went away and it doesn't seem like Mule's will either. These things just tend to get worse...

What's the canadian way? Crosby's way? Or Toews? Or Stamkos? or Gretzky? Howe? Orr? Lindros?
So many different styles IDK which one you're referring to!

Literally 90% of OV's time on the ice is standing right there waiting for a pass
Teams still don't defend it lol

Not a fan of Cleary's decision here.
Holland gifted him 3 contracts and now its time for him to return the favor and he wont do it. Hope he leaves the org and never looks back

While I agree, Abby would be getting money for his prime years. When Gus is at that level, he'll likely be around 6-7 mil.
It sounds like a lot right now, but its still taking awhile to get used to cap inflation. Just under 4M wouldnt be bad at all.

True enough but I'd still take the other 3 over him. I must say though i loathe the game Kessel plays.
I know the topic is best american forward, but best player for me is Suter. Top 2 D in the NHL IMO
To think that two of these players we are discussing nearly signed here...... still bugs me all the time haha

I was just coming here to be a grammar nazi and you had to ruin it for me I hope you're happy with yourself

in before re-signed

If any GM trades Mcdavid for anyone, they would be fired in 3 years.

Not to nitpick here but,
I've never even considered Miller to be here in 6 years. I don't see him being effective at 36. Am I the only one who thinks this?

Really haha I think its one of the best cellys out there. Its emotion and character. Two things our team has been lacking for years
Only other guy who gives a hoot when he scores is Tatar
