Do you want to extend Bernier or not? You said it twice. Like actually said it. And if so, when would you like this to happen? If Yzerman strikes out on a goalie this summer, and Bernier continues to play next season like he has lately, then I'd like to see him extended at some point during next season. I think it would be a mistake to wait until free agency in 2021 to deal with it, because at that point he'd likely test the market. Then we'd have nothing and have to hope to lure someone competent July 1st. Risky business. My hope is that Bernier is just hitting his prime years, which is not unusual for a goalie at 30. He's always had the tools. 1 The 91 of Ryans reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I honestly haven't followed the kids as much as usual this season. Outside of the consensus top 2, I am not sure who is best at 3 or lower. Since Uncle Gary is going to make sure Detroit drops as far as they can, I would not mind taking that Goalie at #4. I just don't know much about the rest of the field. Montreal, Ottawa or Anaheim will get the pick before we do. I just ran the simulator, and we won, but damn if Chicago didn't jump to #2. Seven spots! This needs to be addressed. Lottery flawed. Quick sidenote, on tankathon, I ran the NHL,we won, I ran the NBA, Pistons won, Tigers are 1st OA, Lions 3rd. Could be very interesting for all of our sports teams!

Pronman has the two guys picked after Seider (Zegras and Cozens) ranked higher than Seider. In fact, he also has them in their own elite/high end class.

Wasn't Corey also the one who was forced to begrudgingly admit that he was wrong about Seider during training camp this fall? That he had him ranked way too low at the draft and that he hadn't even watched Seider play that much prior? Seider was THE BEST player in his draft class. Better and more valuable than Jack Booos and Krappo Cracko. Years from now folks will do their little re-drafts and Seider will be #1 without question. 2 1 Wheelchairsuperhero, Dabura and The 91 of Ryans reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In 56 drafts the Detroit Red Wings have never once selected an elite goaltender. But I'm sure we'll find one in the late rounds this year, definitely. Maybe in 5 years he can even make the squad?

In 56 drafts the Detroit Red Wings have only once had Steve Yzerman running the draft. Steve Yzerman drafted Andrei Vasilevskiy. I'm not suggesting late rounds, I'm saying not with what will be our highest pick in 30 years, with some elite (can't miss) forwards on the board. If we end up falling to 3 or 4, your boy Stutzel will likely still be available, and I'd much rather pick him, or a number of other forwards before Askarov. If we can somehow grab another 1st round pick, and Askarov is still on the board, I'd be more than happy to pick him there. Not with a top 4 pick though. 1 derblaueClaus reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
