The discussions in this message board are getting dumber by the day. Why do I even bother?

 

It's just uninformed whining. I'm outta here!

Keep working Babs! Screw the uninformed

 

This is well-deserved

 

Fixed it for ya. Personally I don't like the word "haters"


In Topic: Concerned - we might not make it in to the playoffs

And to be honest...I wouldn't mind if we did miss them. I don't see us winning more than a round anyway, although we have the experiance to maybe win two rounds. I would almost rather not make the playoffs and get a real good pick than make it and get bounced immediatly.
 

 

I was thinking the same thing. If I was betting on it, I'd put money on the Wings making the playoffs, but if we miss the playoffs (other then my wallet being lighter :lol:), I don't think it's a big deal. I wouldn't mind a mid to high draft pick to add to this young team. Plus it would mean a mid to high 2nd round pick, and we always do really well in the 2nd round.

 

Edit: If people want to see changes, maybe a playoff miss would bring the changes they want?

Sample size without goals: 28 games

Sample size with goals: one game

 

Yep, he has a history of scoring... that is, less than 20 goals per season. He is also one of the dumbest players in the league, and certainly one of the least disciplined.

 

Dude, you know what that mean though right? Clowe is on pace for 26 goals this year!



I can't believe we missed out on trading for Bryce Harper too. He hit 2 HR's in his first 2 At Bats of the season...

 

Oh wait, wrong sport.


In Topic: Going forward with what we have

WE'RE IN A YOUTH MOVEMENT.  A half-assed one

 

What do you expect from a team that has had one, ONE, 1st round draft pick lower then 20th overall since 1991 (Kindl)? Are you expecting a Crosby like skill in Grand Rapids? The fact that we can continue to win, and are called a team on the rise by Pierre McGuire on Sunday's game vs. Chicago, drafting higher then the 20th overall pick for 20/21 seasons is historic.
