So you can imagine my surprise when I learn Tocchets Twitter likes were more horny than anything else.
Just looking over some stats and Moritz Seider is still the youngest defenseman in the top 50 for points so far this season. He’s also like the 12th youngest defenseman who has played a game this season. Power, Sanderson, Guhle, and Schneider are like the only other lineup mainstays who are younger.
I know some of us have maybe lost the light at the end of the tunnel, but there is still so much more growing our best players have to do.
All this hockey is cool, but all I wanna watch is yet another Yzerman fleece
Let’s get this bread gentleman
Am I the only one that doesn’t care about what’s going on in Vancouver? I get that what their management did was scummy but at the same time people are overreacting to it. Not trying to be a downer or anything like that but eh.
If Vrana keeps scoring my hopium is going to be off the charts.
We are approaching the worst part of the NHL season. Only a handful of teams actually in playoff races. In a few weeks with the deadline half of every nights games will feature a team that is actively trying to lose and has sold/shut down half their good players(Montreal seems to be the first to start).
I don’t know what the solution is or if there even is one but I hate how every year the last 25-30 games for 90% of the league feel meaningless
I think in addition to the uncertainty of his recovery, a big reason Vrana wasn’t claimed was that it would be a dick move. Not necessarily to the organization but to Vrana himself. He’s trying to get his personal matters back on track and if a team swooped in and took him it would not be a good look at all. It is a business and you have to do what’s best for your team to win, but that would just be extremely insensitive to a serious matter for the player.
What’s one player you think could really improve this team? For me it’s McDavid
That McAvoy highlight from last night is absolutely filthy, oh man what a play.
Look at Edvinsson laughing at the youngling https://twitter.com/jenn1118_/status/1617286400226852870 “tiny hooman” . Im so happy Söderblom is down with him in GR.
A couple Monday morning Wings thoughts/questions:
* Where do you sit emotionally if the Wings finally hit in the lottery, but it’s the second draw so they miss out on Bedard?
* I know the general consensus is that Chiarot’s contract is un-tradable, but we all know that Chiarot’s perceived value from GMs around the league is higher than amongst fans, and much higher than his analytics. Yzerman & Lalonde have kept Chiarot in the top 4 all season. Part of that feels like sunk cost fallacy, but does anyone think they may be avoiding putting Chiarot on the bottom pair to keep his trade value up, and try to move him? It didn’t cost anything but the salary they’ve paid him to acquire him, so any return is a net positive. Probably just wishful thinking on my part, but that would be a tidy piece of work.
#RedWings lines at practice:

Berggren-Copp-Perron
Kubalik-Veleno-Fabbri

Zadina
Walman-Seider

Chiarot is not skating.
Last full day at home before I go on my first headlining tour, folks. That means no desktop and just posting from my phone so I won’t be on my usual stream of consciousness bullshit in the gamethreads… 🙂
“Thank fuck” – 75% of everybody
If you’re interested in our music and we’re playing near you, maybe come check us out! If I’ve got the time to cross paths with you we can talk Wings and maybe you can recommend me a local craft brew.

Anyone else find it weird that someone can be negative about literally everything else, yet defend Ben Chiarot? Weird, dude.
Watching that post practice interview with Zadina, i dont know what it is but i guess hes just one of those prospects you get attached to and for no real obvious reasons. I remember the hype for him when we drafted him. Would love to see him in Seattle, feels like it could be a Tolvanen situation all over again.
I gotta say over the last week with all of the Larkin rumors, I am shocked at the amount of people in this sub that think a) we won’t sign him and/or b) are completely fine with that. Blows my mind, actually.
Even if you don’t believe he is truly elite he’s the centerpiece of a our franchise, the captain, and a hometown guy. The cap will continue to go up and we can tie him down for life as a Red Wing.
The only way he leaves this team is if it’s his decision and I personally think there is a 0% chance that he wants that.
