37 comments

1. Need Thomas asap

2. how much of a say does maltby have in trades/signings of nhlers ?

3. Wait, there was a fight? I thought I witnessed a sacrifice.

4. Cant thank you guys enough for being the goats

5. I was at that Carolina game, and it went just as I thought it would.

6. If Myers was still in the cards, we’ll know by tomorrow morning. As I’ve been sayin for 3 months now, and Myers proves it, SY loves to fill out his role players on D, with size. So look for tge Stanley, Bahl, Oleksiak types for 4, 5, 6 roles, unless it’s an OEL type. A former top pair guy

7. So sick of compher, ras, and Finnie hasn’t looked good in months but at least he’s young.

8. Yzerman will stand pat sadly

9. would rather see Weeger in than Myers

10. chill out gentlemen there is absolutely ZERO chance Yzerman offered a 2nd round pick for Tyler Myers unless there is more to the deal. it is highly unlikely Yzerman would even give up a 3rd round pick for him. Yzerman could have had JVR 2 seasons ago at the deadline for a 6th round pick and didnt make the move so what on earth makes you think the "reports" are true? its nonsense. Hes trying to make a move for LOW COST so that he doesnt HAVE to make another move on defense if he doesnt like how things shakeout on deadline day he doesnt end up overpaying just to make sure Detroit has a viable playoff blueline.

11. Don’t be surprised if they do some work on their bottom 6 too. Adding a Nic Roy, Martin Pospisil type. Even a Paul Cotter or Namestnikov. Players Wh get their nose dirty. Scott Laughton maybe. Compher is the ultimate jersey guy out there.

12. Both players were watching the puck. Edvinsson picked up Tkachuk coming at him, so he stepped into it and raised his arms, but if he hadn't done anything they'd have still collided. How is that interference? Isn't Edvinsson entitled to the space he takes up? Is he supposed to get out of the way? I can easily see an argument for not calling Simon for anything but the fight.

13. MBN looks like a young Timo Meier

14. Don’t get guy good on board battles, Detroit be top league if they stop trying score from the boards

15. The 5v5 play is alarmingly bad, even with a good position in the standings; this level of bad play is unsustainable to getting to the playoffs, let alone trying to win a series.

16. MBN is going to be a playoff monster

17. Tkachuk ran into Edvinsson. Ed saw him coming and just didn't move. That's coincidental contact I'll take the interference call for the overall result of the play, but it shouldn't even have been a penalty upon review.

18. Guys, talk about Auston Matthews on the next one – is he a potential out from Toronto? 🤔

19. Speaking of Rasmussen, we are still searching for a top 2 C for what seems like eternity now because when we finally had a high draft pick in a draft deep in C prospects our GM bonehead Kenny Holland took Ras #9 overall over Vilardi, Necas, Suzuki, Thomas and Norris. Leave it to Bonehead Kenny to have his pick of the liter and he takes the absolute worst player possible all because his "bigger is better" philosophy so he took the useless f'ing giant and the rest of the guys turn into the exact C's we are still searching for🤦‍♂

20. What we're doing is not sustainable guys. We can't score. Love Gibby, but we cannot compete with the top of the east yet unfortunately

21. Unless Yzerman makes a significant move I’m getting more pessimistic by the day this team is going to make the playoffs. Other than Gibson being elite they’re are basically the same mediocre team they’ve been the past 4 years. They haven’t been able to muster anything 5v5 for about 10 games now. If Columbus wins their games in hand they’ll only be 4 points back of the wings and I don’t trust them to hold that. If they get a top 6 forward or top 4 D, preferably both I’ll feel a lot better about their chances. As it stands one key injury or Gibson cooling off and they are toast.

22. If they get Myers get Kane too. If they get Thomas .. get Faulk too. Sweeten it up and go big. First round opponent in a wild card spot is tough. First round opponent in the 2/3 series is VERY winnable. Get after it Yzerman!

23. I don't trust this team to make the playoffs. They are horrid 5v5.

24. Earth to Evan, Carolina and LA are in on Elias Pettersson.

25. If its a 2nd round pick and we make the playoffs thats gonna be an end of 2nd round and at that point its basically a 3rd round pick players in that area are interchangeable

26. Everyone in Vancouver is under performing this year maybe he will be better with Detroit

27. I'm getting sick of ntc and nmc.

28. Pettersson and Raymond could be fun to watch

29. Adam Fox wrote a piece for The Players' Tribune in 2022 that's mostly about his love of hockey and how happy he was to play for his hometown Rangers. Between mere mentions of "Messier, Leetch and Richter" and playing with Charlie McAvoy he writes an entire paragraph about idolizing Niklas Lidstrom and modeling his game after TPH.

    Now he wants to break up with the Rangers. Send Lidstrom to convince him he wants to start over in Detroit. Force Drury to make a trade and leverage Fox's NMC a la Debrincat.

    C'mon Steve, you have until Friday.

30. Myers is a bargain basement type of move that Yzerman has done before. I don't think Myers will be a Wing.

31. Brady and Matthew Tkachuk are like his old man.

32. As someone who enjoys astrophysics the attributing Hubble telescope as a microscope really was nails on a chalkboard.

33. Big concern the Wings have only scored 7 goals in the last 5 games. A trade is need.

34. So it's gonna be no meaningful trade again, huh?

35. Peterson is turning into another Patrick Laine,, ask how the Habs like him ?

36. COSSA TIME! And if your reason for not bringing up Cossa is "Calder Cup", then don't bother commenting. Our priorities aren't the same.

37. I feel physically ill at the amount of times that I've agreed with Brad this episode😂
