I felt better about the Tigers during the offseason heading into 2022 than I do right now about the Red Wings. Of course a lot could happen this summer. But with few moves or the wrong moves, the Wings could have a season like the 2022 Tigers and threaten to be a bottom 5 team.

Really not much better than the Wings' organization in 2013 that prior to that year's draft had: Howard 28 Helm 26 Abdelkader 25 Nyquist 23 B.Smith 23 Glendenning 23 Tatar 22 Dekeyser 22 Pulkinnen 21 Marchenko 21 Sheahan 21 Jurco 20 Mrazek 20 Athanasiou 19 XOuellet 19 Draft night they added: Mantha 18 T Bertuzzi 18

Dan Dickerson’s call of the Tork homer. Right before the clip starts Dan had noted Tork’s 2 for 32 slump. Torkelson Ties Rangers.m4a

Most on this Twitter thread think the Kings overpaid too n

I came here to post that I’m sure glad Yzerman didn’t value Newhook the way the Habs did. Montreal gave up #31 and #37 overall - is Newhook worth more than just on one of those picks?

The guy who put McDavid 5th on his ballot is the type of guy who insists on wearing shorts when it’s snowing out. Thinks he is a rebel making a statement, but really just a dork.

Hawks getting Taylor Hall? Says Friedman, quite definitively.

That's where I want it to end up and I don't think it's far off - if at all - what Ottawa can expect. It would basically mean Hronek + Zadina for Debrincat + moving up from 4th round to 2nd in this year's draft.

Everytime I see a new post on this thread I open it up with the hope that we just landed Debrincat, lol.

He plays for the WHL’s Vancouver Giants so I should really know more about him, but I have nothing to say. Will definitely try to get to a couple of games here this season if he turns out to be the pick.

4 straight strikeouts to end it.

With the pitch clock and faster games, I now wish we’d move away from so many 6:40pm games. By 6pm Vancouver time we’re practically done for the night.

I remember Rod Carew's chase of .400 which I believe carried on into August one season in the late '70s was a really big deal at the time. I wonder if it would get as much attention in this analytics age. You know what MLB needs? A long, long hitting streak to challenge Dimaggio, I think that would draw a following once it hits 40 games.

Weird HHOF election results. Barasso and Vernon and Turgeon got in, but no Mogilny or Zetterberg I do think Hank is only borderline but same with the ones who made it.

Because the Tigers organization is run by morans.

An hour press conference with Yzerman today I haven't found one consolidated thread of key takeaways yet, but here are some from Jeff Riger.

Hell, I'd give them Berggren AND Zadina.

VegasTiger, they should have had two Cup celebrations. One at 7pm G-rated. Then a late one at 10:30pm when the showgirls go topless.

Even throws in some air piano.

What day this summer will William Karlsson sober up? Or not until fall?

Short breaks up their perfect game and Miggy breaks up their no-hitter, but Short thrown out at home so scoreless heading to the bottom of the 5th.

12 up 12 down for both teams through 4. How often does that happen, a few times per year?

Wow, this is a big money buyout. What a disappointing career OEL has ended up having.

Speaking of Konstantinov…
