hassan reddick? he just doesnt seem like the lions' type of guy, but i could be wrong. would the bengals really trade hendrickson? probably not but you never know with them. someone mentioned the jaguars earlier, that might be a good place to start.

he's got a $30 million cap hit this year. doesnt that hit the raiders' books if he's traded? the raiders want to deal underperforming veterans like davante adams not pro bowl de's in their prime. seems like we go through this with crosby every year now.

we're not giving up multiple firsts for any quick fix.

i've never felt worse after a blow out win over the cowgirls. 😞

call up kasper and mazur and roll with two goalies.

cant wait to see which 30 year old declining third line center we sign next offseason lest danielson think he's done enough to make the team out of camp.

veleno is a very replaceable 4th lone center. that's fine. he's an nhl player for sure, but he's nothing more than a younger luke glendinning. on his best day. kind of a come down from his juniors career and his draft slot. i'd rather the wings had let him test the market and called up kasper instead. but that would mean kasper would have gone into training camp already having made the team and FAR BE IT for the red wings to let a prospect make the team rather than let him waste another year in the AHL.

great season.

when i saw that clip of holland tying up phoenix and not letting go, i immediately knew betrayer would be on here loving it today. 🙂

its great to see kasper, mazur et al start so well in grand rapids. but also a little infuriating that theyre in grand rapids and not detroit.

he had a good stretch when he first got here, but that was it. he's been hurt and bad ever since.

well that sucked.

welp, this night sucked.

youre old. 🙂 i dont feel any of the anxiety either, just happiness that theyre here and that they won. correction: "we're" old. 😉

oh betrayer....

in fairness to sherrone, washington had rogers lined up before the coaching change. he just had to convince him to stay. that's not to defend the job sherrone has done this year, but the qb situation isnt entirely his fault.

ras isnt physical enough to intimidate anyone. he started to do it a bit two years ago but didnt do it at all last year. hopefully it was just the injury.

what's the point of watson? are the wings so bereft of strength they sign a guy who does nothing but take penalties and occasionally facewash another guy? are we still that small and weak that we need a checking tough guy with no skill? isnt that why chairot is here? veleno is bulked up. ras is 6'6 for god's sake. edvinsson too. cant they take care of themselves? i mean, maybe not with the way teams take liberties with larkin all the time. still, its a bit frustrating to have an unskilled tough guy on the roster taking a spot from a guy who was picked 7th in the draft and actually did enough to MAKE the team.

its because they oversigned veterans and dont trust their young players. i get it, motte is a solid nhl'er. so is fischer. but why are they here over kasper and mazur? same thing with signing holl and trading for petry last year. why them over edvinsson? it just holds the prospects back, imo. if i were a prospect i would hate to be drafted by detroit. you never get a chance to play unless youre freaking superman. if not, they'll stick you in grand rapids for 4 yeara while signing journeymen "tough guys" who will block shots and fight.

keep watson and cut kasper because....youre the red wings.
