If the Wings never moved EAST?

What if the Wings never moved to the EAST?

I don't think we make the playoffs in 2013 or since in the WEST. I wonder if we are in the running for the likes of McDavid, Matthews,Laine, Eichel. I doubt Datz resigns and goes home early like he wanted. I wonder if we are at least at the middle or delaying the rebuild.

What do you guys think happens if we never leave the WEST?

Wouldn't have made the playoffs in 2014. The West was too good at the time and the East was terrible. We got pretty lucky the year we moved. 

Datsyuk never said he wanted to leave the team in 2013 that was fan speculation which he completely shut down on his twitter by saying he's looking forward to playing with the Wings for a few more years. All he said was that his dream was to retire in Russia (eventually). Which it looks like he is (albeit one year earlier)

We'd be getting our asses kicked multiple times a year by the Blackhawks and Blues, and having to listen to their annoying fan bases gloating about it and chanting about how much the Wings suck.  

Well we'd beat Blues, they are the one team worse then us in the playoffs ;)

I remember when we moved East the big talk was "The East is wayyyyyy more gritty and tuff, da softy Wings are gonna struggle" and that wasn't just coming from Wings fans, but also from all those fans of "big tough" Eastern teams

Does anyone think this has been issue?

No, us getting older, and losing the vets has been the issue.
