LeftWinger 5,153 Report post Posted December 4, 2016 Nyet. Howard too injury prone, historically s***s the ice after December. Consistently. You don't trade Mrazek. That would spell the immediate end of Holland...which I'd love, but not at the expense of Petr. 2 chaps80 and roboturner reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chaps80 1,591 Report post Posted December 4, 2016 Coreau will be Mrazek's backup next season. Pretty sure he's no longer waiver exempt. Howard will look good with that big gold knight on his chest. Or a big flaming C. Or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But he has that pesky MNTC and at this point Mraz isnt any better than he. And as of now there are better goalies available for LV than Howard. That might change though.

frankgrimes 1,836 Report post Posted December 14, 2016 There shouldn't be a conflict, so far Howard has been the much better goalie and should get the chance to redeem himself. That being said the crease should be way down on the priority list there are much bigger holes with this team. 1 ChristopherReevesLegs reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You have been very clear about thinking this team is one of the worst in the NHL, and you have been very clear about your stance on the Wings tanking and doing a complete re-build. If that is your stance, why would you back the vet? Isn't your entire argument to get rid of all the vets and play the kids? Also, if Mrazek is playing worse right now, isn't that what you want? You want us to lose and get a better pick....right? 1 krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But in theory you are absolutely right, I want a scorched earth approach starting at the top I agree with the bold, I hate the treatment that Howard has received over the years. The jersey I wear to any game I go to is actually a Howard jersey. 1 frankgrimes reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
