      that's the problem. you won't get Kane for a full year. you'll get Kane stuck in the mud and unable to play offense bc he won't have Cat or Larkin. he'll have JT Compher and the older less dynamic defense first version of Tarasenko. Pat could barely play offense last year when him and Cat were centered by Compher. now swap out Cat for a much less dynamic offensive player (in his current version anyway).
      Lalonde is robbing Wings fans of what should have been at least one glorious season of Kane DeBrincat Larkin lighting it up on a line together and playing highlight reel hockey. Kane will struggle to do anything w those 2 linemates. he will get very frustrated very quickly. the team will likely be bad. but he will maybe get even more frustrated if the team somehow steals wins during it. i foresee the team being really awful if he doesn't get real linemates. and i foresee him demanding a trade. Lalonde has ruined what could have been a really cool special season for the Wings and their fans. and Yzerman has allowed him to. Lalonde should be fired after this season goes how it's going to go. and Yzerman should be put on notice.
      to add injury to insult, Kane this year is trying to make the Olympic team w his play. something very important. and Lalonde is doing everything he can to make him look horrible. Kane's also trying to get to 500 goals (needs 29) and the US points record (needs 91). what this coach is doing is basically a mortal sin for a hockey coach. he's robbing everyone but Lucas Raymond.

If cat and Raymond aren’t clicking all the way he will switch it up. PP will be fun. I hate our centermen by the way. I don’t like Rasmussen but at least his size and speed and forecheck would make him interesting. Compher though he has his moments, is frustrating to watch. We need someone to fetch and keep possession on that line, we have a lot of guys that are slow and weak on the puck. I wish they’d retire copp from the planet. Here we are again, small, skilled, lacking jam. A lot to be hopeful for tho.

I understand that its frustration for wings fans because weve been out of the playoffs for 8 years but Stevey Y has only been a part of this team for the last 5. A lot his prospects arent even in the NHL yet. Most of the guys on our team right now are just placeholders for all our young guys. Give it a little time and be patient for like 2 more years and we'll be making the playoffs consistently and easily.

    Atlantic is only division where i could see any team miss playoffs or get to playoffs. Ofc its very unlikely Florida or Toronto would miss but other has two very long seasons behind and other has new coach and Marner situation. Also Buffalo, Detroit or Ottawa can become next NJD 22-23 or VAN 23-24 that surprises all and gets huge jump. And Montreal has enough potential to get to wild card spot if everything goes well. Time will tell.

    The lack of top 3 picks during the rebuild window is honestly really shining through, especially on offense… Obviously the Wings have some really good pieces with Larkin, Raymond and Dbrincat but they lack that true alpha superstar that you can basically only get through the draft (they rarely come available through trade or free agency)
    They don’t have that McDavid, MacKinnon, Kucherov, Crosby caliber player up front which has really slowed the rebuild… Im not out on the Wings but I think that lack of lottery luck kinda forces the Wings to play the waiting game
    I think they’ll be a very good team in a few years but they have to wait for Edvinsson, Cossa, Danielson, Sandin-Pelikka, Kasper, Wallinder, Nygaard etc. to break into their potential to create a team dripping with depth scoring and or leverage that for big trades (think Vegas, Stanley cup Kings etc.)

      I’m not sure who’ve they “missed on” if you’re talking about their early picks… Seider and Raymond were either the or close to the best player available, Edvinsson is right around the best player available from that class considering his prospect status and 2022 and 2023 was a lot of the same offensively with limited great players when Detroit drafted (although it’s pretty early to tell)… Later on it’s a crapshoot… Scouts can only discover so much about day 2 or 3 guys

    Red WIngs had one, if not THE longest dynasty of a championship contender between 1994-2012 to never miss the play-offs and from 1994-2010 in the same process was regarded as a possible title challanger was astonishing. Having had the dark years of the late 70's to the early 90's Red Wings had a great swing with solid draft picks that bult the supporting frame for the franchise combined with great trades of solid veterans and/or players others did not regarded valuable.
    And even then in the late 90's during there championship run's they get two solid late-picks (Datsuyk & Zetterberg), players of tallent calibre who should´been out of reach for them if others had taken them serious.
    However, what comes up must come down. 1-by-1 each of these left the franchise and/or hockey all togheter and what was left was no core.
    This is the natural process for all great dynasties, it was just that Red Wings in modern times had it for so unusually long. When there dynasty ended about 2010 and from there on, I realized that the Red Wings will have at least a dark decade of rebuilt based on the former GM mentality, but also that such level of deep tallent pool they had is impossible to get again for ANY team, that if they try to "live-on" as a dynasty in mind, they will miss out of higher draft picks and the process will be dragged on to further delaying the long rebuilt.
    Steve Yzerman is a great leader and a great GM, but making a new TP Lightning sucsess is TO MUCH demanding.

  • @Sonicthehedgefundmanager
    @Sonicthehedgefundmanager Месяц назад +1

    We have a solid team, yzerman keeps making small incremental improvements, he’s trying to build something that’s going to last, I’m still not putting stock into playoffs until we see more yzerman prospects make the lineup, yzerman is still being aggressive in signing veterans in free agency and imo it’s because he still hasn’t had a chance to see his vision, and he’s had a lot of bad luck in getting good draft positions, and he’s already built the team up to the point where we will probably no longer be guaranteed a top 10-15 spot in the draft, which means progress is being made, we have a lot of good prospects, and things are slowly falling into place, I mean we were in the playoff hunt until the literal last minute of the season last season, as heartbreaking as it is that is a sign of progress for this team, and I feel it’s only going to get better. We have good reasons to be optimistic.

    @MikaTuukkanen Месяц назад +1

    As an Avs fan who watched Compher for years, you are right. He is a great addition to any team, but not in the top 6. Compher excels in the third line. Avs fans generally seemed to agree that what Detroit pays to Compher is simply too much.
    But I still I expect Detroit to make it to playoffs. And I didn't just put them in my yearly predictions, I put the second in their division and expected them to also win 1 round of playoffs.
    You are also right the Atlantic is one tough division. I think Atlantic is by far the toughest division currecntly, as there is not really any bad teams. Ottawa, Buffalo and Detroit are teams on the rise trying to get out of a rebuild and all possible playoff teams. Florida and Toronto are expected to be playoff locks again. Boston and Tampa are getting old and likely getting close to a decline, but both teams could again be playoff contenders. This is why I had to leave montreal to be be the last in the division, as while their team looks to be getting pretty good, they simply have a damn tough competition around them. And then there came the news about Laine injury.

      Every. Single. Year.
      Every year, there's an army of people trying to lecture other Wings fans about "trusting the plan" and how "the cupboard was bare" when Yzerman took over and how things are trending up. Last year's underlying metrics are a real cause for concern, not because the team was losing but because of how much winning they did when they shouldn't have. Their shooting % collapsed, like it inevitably was going to, and there were only poor defensive fundamentals and bad goal tending left to go on. There's plenty to be optimistic about but the ceiling on this team long term is worryingly low.

Kane can't play w Compher. and the 'top line' gives up a ton, runs hot and cold, and over the long haul does not significantly outscore opponents, or didn't last year. so far this preseason they're losing 3-0. losing high danger chances 8-1.

    I was at the game yesterday and the rookie forwards all looked really good. Kasper, Mazur, Danielson… MBN is probably gonna be a beast too. I think they need to stop with the old “veteran” forwards and let the kids come up and play. I’d rather get worse record-wise and have them play at a higher level since most of them are ready. What’s really concerning is the defense, because we have Mo/Edvinsson and that’s about it for the future. ASP has extremely high potential as an offensive defenseman but we need some behemoths who can actually play D. The wings have to be top 5 weakest defenses in the league not only by defenseman but just as a team playing in their D zone, and no goalie is going to want to play here with that.

    I don't know how anyone can predict them to be a playoff team.
    They have the worst goalie tadem in the league with Lyon and Talbot.
    The defense is not good: Chiarot and Petry are only getting worse, Edvindsson lacks experience and Gustafsson isn't very good defensively. Seider can't do everything on his own.
    The offense will be great but they won't be able to always outscore the other team. Questionable defense in front of bad goaltending is a recipe for disaster. But it's hockey, anything can happen. If Talbot can get hot in the 1st half like last year, Lyon could get hot the moment Talbot gets cold. This season will rely on goaltending for the Red Wings. If they don't get a miracle in net, they're screwed.

    Husso had a fantastic stretch two years ago then fizzled out. Then last year he got a bunch of injuries.
    Lyon had a fantastic stretch last year then fizzled out.
    Not only do I not understand the concerns on Husso, but the confidence in Lyon is also too rapid.
    Husso obviously rushed back too quickly on multiple occasions. He's had the summer to recover and even just had an absolutely fantastic outing against Pittsburgh's A-squad in the pre-season.
    Lyon, Talbot and Husso could be a legitimate trio who cycle through 30ish games each this season.
    The goaltending is a definitive upgrade over last year, non-debatable.
    That being said, I am still nervous for the forward and d-core structure. I don't understand why so many people are nervous about the goaltending, but the d-core and forwards are much more concerning.

Otherwise its time to have the prospects move in and take a couple of spots on the roster and pray Cossa is soon a top goalie in the NHL. Culture is important. I don't want to be a talent laden team the under-performs. We don't have enough generational talent for that anyway. I don't want to be a perpetual playoff team that never gets far like Minnesota. So we need a great culture that gets the most of the talent it has. And great goal-tending.
