Hockey13Playa 240 Report post Posted June 10, 2012 Ugh, I knew it was coming but I really liked Stuart. He was a solid defender. Good luck in the shark tank buddy. 3 LidsFan, Cloune and GoWings1905 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

St. Michael (the Red Wing) 422 Report post Posted June 10, 2012 As expected I thought maybe it would have been Anaheim but isn't the Sharks the team that drafted him? I think so. Good luck the rest of the way out Stu Be cheering against you from now on 1 LidsFan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcom007 1,465 Report post Posted June 10, 2012 Stuart leaving is a bigger loss than most realize. He takes a lot of crap around here from some who fail to see just how good he was overall for four years here. Sure, he wasn't perfect, but there aren't many who come even close to great, let alone very good, and Stuart was without a doubt very, very, very good and a very important part of the Wings defensive puzzle over the last four years. Losing him and Nick in one fell swoop is rough. If Holland can't make some big things happen, we're likely to have a rough season ahead of us. Thankfully, for once, I think Holland knows he has to be more pro-active and aggressive than he's had to be at any point in his career. If ever there was a sink or swim time for the Wings management, it's now. Also, not expecting this pick to hang around for long. Whenever Holland trades for the rights of one of his big targets, this will be in the package no doubt. 5 Hockey13Playa, Matt, GoWings1905 and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think moving his rights was Hollands first step in being more pro-active this off season. Glad we got something for him rather than nothing.. Can't wait to see what else happens this off season. 1 Rick D reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

newfy 695 Report post Posted June 10, 2012 Hopefully Quincey will step up his game, as well as Ericcson. Stuart was pretty bad this year his heart was in Cali it seemed. Hmm I dont know much about this Murray.. 6'2, 220 lbs,played 39 games with San Jose last year and 10 with Worcester, I wonder if he was hurt or something? Hes a center, could the writing be on the wall for Emmerton and the wings want some size down the middle and in the bottom 6? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FifeHockeyNut 57 Report post Posted June 10, 2012 Anyone think the Wings have any intention of signing Murray? (UFA also I believe) or will he used in any future deals before free agency? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hockey13Playa 240 Report post Posted June 10, 2012 (edited) Quincey is a lot like Stuart, a little less physical but a better skater and a little more skilled and much younger I don't think I would say he is "a lot like" Stuart. They both play a somewhat different style game in my opinion. Edited June 10, 2012 by Hockey13Playa 1 asoras reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kylee 727 Report post Posted June 10, 2012 Murry is a former Blue Jacket who bounced between the NHL and AHL. I think he is a serviceable plugger. However I do not know how he fits in our roster. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Hatethedrake! Report post Posted June 10, 2012 We may as well have traded for Bob Murray. I will miss Stuart. Good solid reliable dman. Signing Suter will ease the pain though. 3 LidsFan, GoWings1905 and DatZetterfanfromSC reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yzermania 156 Report post Posted June 10, 2012 Yeah Holland has his work cut out for him this off season. We've now lost 3 of our top 4 D-men in the last 2 off seasons and have only gained white and quincey. Suter is a must, but we're gonna need a second strong D-man to be brought in as well. 2 Z and D for the C and LidsFan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigWillieStyle 662 Report post Posted June 10, 2012 Would have been better if it were Doug Murray. Good luck, Stewie! Thanks for the great years you spent here. You've left us with a whole lot of highlight reel hip checks.
