  1. $25k. pocket change for him.
  2. he could "shoot" back in detroit. the difference is that when he was in detroit after he signed the big deal, he thought he SHOULD be shooting. now he is just a bit player who shoots in garbage time for the laughs.
  3. i like this new keith gave.
  4. i'd be surprised if they do anything this year. they'll suspend him for a couple games next year.
  5. he was really good the second half of the season. he dominated tarris reed in the post, reed was one of the best players in the tournament and mara shut him down. michigan kind of unlocked mara's passing too. good vision for a big man. he'll get walked physically for a while, but he can defend the paint and pass.
  6. i dont see how you can watch this team and think that. they got caved in by the best teams quite regularly when those teams turned up the intensity.
  7. i think it will be quinn hughes this year.
  8. i thinm the wings collapsed. they were never as good as their early season results, as evidenced by their goal differential. if there is any bad luck involved, its that they play in the toughest division in the sport. those things are cyclical and the wings are in a bad place for their own cycle. the real question were all asking is why is it taking so long to get better? their peers are doing better than they are. i just dont see the positives in the farm system. they have no star players it seems. that's what they really need. I would not be surprised if they get desperate and shell out the farm for EP40.
  9. i was agreeing with you. 🙂
  10. lamelo ball has to be one of the more unlikeable players in the league. 2-16 from 3? intentionally hurts the other team's best player? totally selfish and stupid player. immensely physically talented but just a **** and a dumbass.
  11. Once again with feeling: prospect ratings have very little correlation with results on the ice. wheeler and pronman are great, but their ratings have much more to do with draft position than anything else. and if you are to take them seriously, all they show about the wings is that they have a lot of players projected to be 3rd liners and second pair defensemen, and no stars. nate danielson and marco kasper were both top ten picks. both dropped like a stone in those rankings once they got on the ice against men. asp now too. most of us really overrate red wings prospects. me included.
  12. if charlotte loses AT HOME to a miami team without Bam, that would be very very hilarious.
  13. well, they WERE trying on defense. then coby white and lamelo bell stepped back on the floor.
  14. ftfy
  15. another reason the playoffs are better: the refs let them play. the game flows so much better when the refs stop calling ticky tack bull****. (knicks, celtics, and lakers home games notwithstanding)
  16. Funny how the scores are lower when both teams are actually trying to defend and win.
  17. lamelo is a little bitch? no way!
  18. EIGHT years in and youre still treading water? come on now. "they have to bring back kane" is a sad indictment on the state of the wings' bottom six forwards. at this point in his career kane should be a sheltered bottom six forward and a power play merchant. that's it. not the focal point of your second line offense.
  19. ishbia sure does get sued a lot. seems like a real ass hole.
  20. 1) us: these players suck! 2) also us: why havent we traded them for assets? ummmm....see #1.
  21. michigan and illinois numbers heavily boosted by final four and, in michigan's case, the championship game. not that michigan isnt a popular team, but they dont get more eyeballs than duke.
  22. rasmussen has been total **** for 2 years.
  23. why would a five game series result in more gaps? the real issue is the nba insisting almost all the games need to be scheduled so they dont conflict with each other.
  24. but what level of talent? do ANY of those guys profile as a first line skilled scoring winger? maybe bear? looks like second and third line guys, which is fine, but not totally what they need. plus, if history is a guide, none of those guys are going to make a meaningful contribution next year. if the spine the wings is a bunch of rookies, they are likely to miss the playoffs again.
  25. I would deal ASP. too small. but i doubt you'd get a first round pick back. woukd anyone attach a 4th rounder to get rid of ras? what would you attach to get compher off this team?
