TheUkrainian 49 Report post Posted September 27, 2008 “I’m really happy doing what I’m doing, and I’m enjoying working in the organization and trying to add value and help out,” said Yzerman. “I’ve learned a ton, and I will continue to learn just by being around. But I have goals, and because our organization is deep in the management level, and our guys are successful and they’re young — it’s something that at some point, we’re going to have sit down and discuss it.” Yzerman Hints he may leave for better position... Not sure about the credibility or the details, just an alert that I get about the Wings through Google Alerts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Shoreline Report post Posted September 27, 2008 Yep, anyone could see this coming. I'd prefer him to stay with the Wings, but since he already showed his franchise loyalty in being amongst the best of all time with one team, good luck to him, wherever he may go (not against the Wings, of course). Will always be pulling for his success. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Danny 155 Report post Posted September 27, 2008 I've debated internally about what the outcome in terms of personal opinion would be if Yzerman went to another organization, seeing as he's one of my idols. The resounding answer has been that the organization he lands at instantly becomes my second favorite hockey club. The man is 75% of the reason I love hockey. The other 25% is also likely attributable to him indirectly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Indeed, my dad was an Yzerman fan, when he died in 1993 and my family from Redford introduced me to hockey, I instantly became an Yzerman fan. There's just nothing about the guy to dislike. He's an honorable player and a good guy all around. The business side is business, but he's proven himself to the Red Wings and fans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheUkrainian 49 Report post Posted September 27, 2008 Ooops...sorry. Stupid schedule with school and all...I have to open up like 5 tabs to check all of the Forum groups that I'm part of, and thats usually past 1am haha I don't think there would be many hard feelings against him. Playing hockey and working off the ice so to speak are 2 different things. He will always be a Wing to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SouthernWingsFan 854 Report post Posted September 27, 2008 Sometimes your career goals require you to work in a different city or area away from where you have been for a long while, in any profession. I hope for nothing but the best for Yzerman, whether it is in Detroit or anywhere else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
