    2/27 GDT - Red Wings at Blackhawks - 8:00 PM EST

    No Larkin for a few games apparently.

    Larkin Next?

    Wasn't liked by his teammates? Tell that to Larkin, then, because he seemed genuinely pissed about the trade and even said that AA WAS liked and wanted to stay in Detroit. As for AA's defense, it was no worse than a young Yzerman's, before a certain coach was brought in. This team's biggest problem is Blashill.

    AA traded to oilers

    One "anonymous" quote, from any older teammate. I could give an F. Put your name on it, or I don't care.

    AA traded to oilers

    For that return, I'd have much rather held onto him. There really was no reason to trade him to begin with. Can't wait to see him play with McDavid, might even order Center Ice to watch Edmonton games. Will be a fun team to watch.
  5. Yes, but trading off a 25-year-old coming off a 30-goal season for cheap just because he is perceived to be a 'problem child' seems rather silly. Could you imagine if every GM traded a player only because they were viewed as a 'problem child'...Patrick Kane for example? No, unless multiple assets are involved, and that includes a 1st or a top prospect, then there is really no need to trade him. I hope Stevie holds out for a great return or does not trade him at all, and I certainly hope he does not sell low, I'd be so disappointed in him, and I don't want that.
  6. Now I'm dreading a little what he might trade AA for. Anything less than a 1st PLUS a decent prospect would be idiocy. I'd much rather keep AA than take a single crapshoot draft pick.
  7. Did Stevie have info Seider was going top-10? If not, why not trade back? Don't like the pick either way.

    2019 Draft

  9. Good, I never wanted Hughes or Kakko anyways. They suck. Whoever we pick at #6 is who I really wanted.
  10. Well, this turned out quite bad... but at least it's not Colorado; still, if Chicago gets 1 or 2....

    2/24 Transference GDT - Sharks @ Red Wings - 3:00 PM ET

    If he scores a hat trick against a team he has no ill will toward, what will that mean for Montreal next game?

    Happy Zadina Day! But certainly no pressure, kid.
  14. Over 20 members online. I guess Holland must have made a trade, eh. Semi decent return for Jensen. Will probably be a late 2nd, but better than a late 3rd, which is what I was expecting. Don't know much about the player, but from what I've read and seen, he seems like a guy worth taking a chance on, "change of scenery" and all of that. Nothing to lose.

    6/22 GDT - 2018 Entry Draft

    Been looking at a ton of pre-draft mock drafts this morning. Almost none had Zadina slipping past 4, with the vast majority having him going at 3 to Montreal (or to a team that traded up). Don't know how or why he fell to us at 6, but, wow! Almost all had Veleno going somewhere between 15-19, with one having him going as high as 11, calling him "the best center in the draft". So it seems like a windfall for him to fall into our laps at 30. Bode Wilde, our potential 1st pick of the 2nd round (depending on what Buffalo does), was also consistently in that 15-19 range in most of these mock drafts, with one having him picked as high as 13. I was actually hoping to trade up for him in the mid-20 range, but, well, there he may be for us to take at 33? If he is, seems like a no-brainer pick. Feels like a 1st round coup (well, more luck, but Holland still had to not screw it up, so good for him) for Detroit, could be some steals in round 2 as well.
