pistons could have had him last year. instead they traded for joe harris.

the 8.5ish is in line with other young top defensemen. i understand your point, seider's analytical numbers arent great, but they give him HEAVY responsibility. i do think the physicalness has decreases.

yes

yup. that's the argument for trading for a guy like mittlestadt but it would have cost you edvinsson, most likely. or horvat. that's why you have to draft and develop. good, young centers dont get traded.

they are absolutely not a lock. they have to get another center/playmaker. im not sure how they do that. but they need internal advancement from the younger kids.

i dont want to see more 5m contracts for average players like compher and copp.

kane also was a positive even if he dropped off a bit at the end.

lucas raymond's continued development is the best part about this season. seider continues to be solid and the points will come when he takes over for ghost as #1 on the pp. but raymond got better and stronger as the year went on. positives: raymond, larkin, walman, seider, lyon, fischer, chairot. disappointments: compher, copp, rasmussen, husso, debrincat, holl.

we can sign him AND trade for draymond green! heck, then trade for zack lavine. this team will totally compete for the play in spot next year. success!

cheeseburgers and porn stars are a helluva drug.

they have very little room to move for a star player. i dont see how they bring ghost and kane back. you can get one but not the other. the rumors that theyre already talking extension with perron are scary to me. he's old and fell off badly at the end of the year (excluding the last few games). things should open up after this season when husso, petry, maata, and fabbri come off the books. that's $15 million right there.

holland is a hall of fame lock.

the wings no longer have unlimited money. they have to pay seider and raymond now. seider is probably getting 8.5. raymond may have played his way into 8. with larkin, debrincat, seider, and raymond all making that kind of coin, there isnt a ton of room left for free agents. not with paying compher, chairot, fabbri, husso, and copp larger mid-level deals. not to mention maata and holl sucking up space. i dont see how ghost comes back. kane can come back if he will take 5. anything more than that and he's probably gone. vegas will sign him after putting stone on ltir for 81 games. kasper can replace veleno. mazur can replace perron. edvinsson will stick. cut husso and take the cap hit. call up cossa or sign a reasonably priced backup. johansson should be up in place of holl or petry. they dont have the money for guentzel or stamkos. its all about internal development. its time to see the fruits of all those draft picks.

if she can keep people's interest in the league, revenue and salaries will increase. right now its a money loser and has been propped up by nba revenues for decades. but networks obviously see women's sports as a growth area. espn is pumping major airtime and webspace into it. the investment - in sports league terms - is very low and the potential returns are high. if they want to televise mens pro sports the rights very very expensive.

i think ive watched that ten times now.

still a chance the pobo comes in and cleans house. saves gores the responsibility of doing it himself.

**** you boston

i brought a family of four. once you get drinks, snacks, and merch it cost a lot of money.

i took the familly to a game two years ago and was amazed at how expensive it was. but all hockey games are like that. hawks tickets face value are ridiculously expensive.

it'll be izzo.

wait....he thinks he IMPROVED and is doing those things correctly now? oh my.

all the good guys who were available who would be good fits for detroit will be signed. good players dont usually become available unless they demand to be traded.

that would be a great way to get people to protest them. lol.
