krsmith17 7,191 Report post Posted October 30, 2019 How are Ehn and de la Rose immune to being scratched? They both suck offensively. Are they really that good defensively? I don't see it... How about Nielsen? He's f***ing awful too. Can't scratch a vet making over $5M though... Same applies to Daley and Green... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gotta showcase your trade chips. I don't give a s*** about mistakes. As long as young players are learning from their mistakes, let them make them. However, a mistake made of a young player and a mistake made by a veteran is handled very differently... I agree with showcasing trade chips, but no one is trading for Ehn or de la Rose. They're not NHL players. Waive them and be done with it. 31 minutes ago, ChristopherReevesLegs said: I guess they're both still pretty young and RFA controlled, so in theory should be kept around...

As long as they're not in the lineup on a regular basis, I'd be fine with it. Problem is, 13th/14th forwards play a fair amount of games throughout the season. Whether there's an injury, or sitting a kid, for... reasons. I'd prefer to see any combination of Glendening / Abdelkader / Helm / Erne / Kuffner / Turgeon / Pearson / Smith as our 4th line and 13th/14th forwards over Ehn / de la Rose...

Hicketts should really play ahead of either of them. I think Steve will clear house this summer...

"There are three head coaches on expiring deals, more or less, this season: Detroit’s Jeff Blashill signed a two-year extension late last season with the Red Wings but my understanding is that it’s a one-year deal plus a club option for Year 2. So this season is the only guaranteed part of things. Minnesota’s Bruce Boudreau... Winnipeg’s Paul Maurice..." 1 mackel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tankmaster Blash is gonna deliver us Lafraniere/Byfield. But as soon as the horn blows after the third period of the last game this season I want Steve to announce the news that the Red Wings have decided to not use the option to give the second year the coach's contract.
