Nate is on another level right now, no surprise moving to a better team made his points explode but he's leading the team too. I think he's tied for 3rd for WHL playoff points overall right now too. For a guy that plays a complete game this is great to see.

With how he's playing right now I feel like he's going to be gone before the Wings pick sadly. I still haven't gotten up to speed on prospects for this draft yet personally, just some stuff here and there. I think you are right about Gibson and Finnie too, back to juniors for them sadly.

excellent news, he had a great season and I’m excited to see how his pro career goes

intriguing for how little experience he seems to have at rb

They had an alternative, very interesting Plan B in mind: All 6'8" 350#'s of Giovanni Manu out of British Columbia! Cost: Next year's 3rd...

Sione Vaki, sounds like a Star Wars character

Another trade in?!

Man this is a big boy!

Good to get the Jared Goff chants going early

Amon-Ra was only the highest paid WR for a day lol

I think unless Lalonde changes his systems, the Wings will never look good when evaluating fancy stats. Their offense seems to be built around low volume but high quality shots, while their defense sorta seems to be letting other teams shoot from low danger areas as much as they want. Not saying they don't show a cause for concern, I just don't think the fancy stats are ever going to show large shot shares at 5 on 5 compared to most teams. Just my opinion though.

NotNot sure if this has been posted yet, pretty funny

The Wings actually scored more goals per game without Kane in the lineup than with him in the lineup (and gave up a lot less goals against) though this does include the stretch without Larkin which is probably more of a driving force than Kane being in the lineup. But something I definitely found interesting.

I'm fine if he does walk honestly. I feel like some team will overpay for him if that's the route he wants to go.

Kinda reads like he's coming back but is also pretty ambiguous...not sure what to make of it after his press conference at the end of the season

Brad is spending! Two great players to lock up.

Depends on your definition of defense! (I actually think he was quite good at it, he was just in the wrong era where puck possession and offense were almost a knock on defensemen)

I'm guessing that is what will happen, just a shame that the original one with the tribute to Matt Wuest as the trophy name is going away.

I went by skill personally, that's how I read the question but can see an argument for Yzerman for non-skill reasons. I debated including Datsyuk instead of Fedorov too.

Howe, Lidstrom, Fedorov

Looks like the Traverse City prospect tournament is falling apart. Only Dallas is coming this upcoming offseason for a couple games, kinda sad.

Something I notice Joe Veleno doing a lot too
