  1. This is a really fantastic meme template
  2. I know he isn't your prototypical high end guy that is dancing around people, but I do think Michael Brandsegg-Nygård at least has injected some offensive skill into their prospect ranks. His shot is going to play in the NHL and he looks like a beast on the forecheck who likes to hit. I think that skill set will play well in the current NHL on the offensive side because his shot is so good. Other than that it is a lot of projection so I can't disagree with you. They have guys like Plante's playmaking ability that could translate but other than that, not much. I do think Raymond will pick it up again, I expect him to be more like the player last year than what he's shown so far.
  3. I am far from endorsing it but we just have to get used to this with Lalonde and this roster. It seems like the system is designed to grind it out as long as possible until they can get high danger scoring chances versus putting a lot of shots on net to create chances that way. The fact that the roster doesn't have much high end skill means they won't generate much outside of what's designed, so when the Wings win I think it'll be like this until the roster changes.
  4. And Kane snipes a shot from the point on a power play, forget worrying about giving up short handers keep this going!
  5. I don't expect the Wings to get another shot the rest of the game, they're at 15 right now
  6. Fortunate sequence for the Wings, Fischer puts a hard hit on Dillon as Dillon is turning towards the boards. Fish made contact with the shoulder mostly but Dillon went face first into the glass. Dillon was rightfully mad and started a fight, wings get the power play from it. Larkin scores on a nice shot pass from Kane, good to see Kane contribute. Edit: just realized they had Kane at the top on the power play....I like that they're trying new things but wow that's scary from a giving up a short handed goal standpoint
  7. I forget that Joe Veleno exists for such long periods of time, why did we re-sign him again
  8. It seems like the other teams' strategy with him is to just hit the **** out of him and he hasn't adjusted so far
  9. Wings looked bad to start the first, Devils ended up scoring on a PP with Seider in the box. Fischer scored on a broken play then DeBrincat put in a nice shot. 2-1 into the first intermission with the Wings getting a fresh power play to start the second.
  10. LOL nice goal, suspect defense and goaltending
  11. Have they said what it was for? Based on the suspension length my guess was adderall without letting the league know he has a prescription or something like that?
  12. Sounds like I missed a fairly boring game to watch, glad they hung on!
  13. Go to 4:15 in this video, I think it is fairly obvious he's referencing Walman: Last season when they were on their big losing skid without Larkin and on the road in Florida he posted an Instagram from the beach saying he was on vacation and deleted it pretty quickly. It seems like he wasn't taking things seriously and it rubbed people the wrong way. I doubt Yzerman would ever come out and explicitly say that he was a problem but it feels kinda easy to read between the lines with everything.
  14. Sundin is asked who the next big Swedish prospects are and he names ASP as the lone player
  15. Hey we are better than Nashville at least lol. Kasper looked good, keep him up even when Motte is healthy. They need someone with his legs on the forecheck. I also cannot stand Gustafsson. He sucks!
  16. Not good at all Watson having no deterrent effect in the AHL I guess. Kasper and Danielson had "fights" already this season too.
  17. Real loser type stuff to throw punches like that with a bubble on Saw some people speculating there was bad blood between the Wings and MBN since they wanted him in the AHL and he wanted to go back to the SHL. Felt like a reach then.
  18. Wings are playing the long game upping Shesterkin's value so he takes up more of their cap space on his next contract
  19. Holl with the assist, he's looking pretty solid again
  20. Apparently Fischer is only out ~2 games so they didn't want to call up Kasper In other news I hate the NHL Network blacking out ESPN+
