  1. I would love it if Dman Radim Mrtka were on the board for us at 13. I like the skill of Viktor Eklund, but the guy is too small I feel.
  2. So it looks increasingly likely we're picking at 13, not trading up and not moving the pick for an NHL player. Oh well.
  3. Damn, Hagens to Boston. That sucks.
  4. What a coincidence that in the very first ****ing year of the franchise Utah moves up 10 ****ing spots in the draft.
  5. I think "stay the course" will be the overarching theme of the offseason. Given all the other players going elsewhere and how little we are being linked in the media to anyone else, I think we're going to be looking at a similar roster next year. You might see a guy like Danielson up from Grand Rapids. You might also see a second or third pairing defenseman or third or fourth line forward get signed. But it is looking increasingly less likely they'll be big game hunting for an elite or very good player on defense or at forward. I'd like a big move to be made, but I also want it to be the right move. Signing a "big name" player or making a move for the sake of it is obviously not good business. I also don't want Yzerman to get desperate and try to be competitive for the sake of it. We witnessed several what could be coined as "desperate" moves by Kenny during is later years here. I'd rather Yzerman just stick to whatever plan he has and with the roster he has then crippling us with bad, long-term contracts to veterans who are on the decline or younger players who get massively overpaid. I don't want a Ben Chiarot, Frans Nielsen, JT Compher, Mikael Samuelsson, Stephen Weiss, Todd Burtuzzi type of deal out of Yzerman.
  6. Remember when Kenny signed Frans Nielsen and we all freaked out and got pissed. LOL! That deal was nearly a decade ago and now John Tavares, a better player, signs for a much better deal.
  7. Glad to see they did not include the Meijer logo in this version as they did on their Twitter post. Hopefully it stays clean like this, without ay additional sponsorship on the logo.
  8. I know Rust was quite productive last year, scoring 65 points, but no thanks on a 34 year old winger. We need to get more talent on this team, I get that, but we need to get younger talent that can help us win over the next decade. Also, Rust was playing on a line with Crosby and that makes me wonder how much his productivity will drop off when he has to come play with Larkin (no shade to Larkin).
  9. Bummed to see another, young, would be target in Peterka off the market.
  10. What an absolute, un-American piece of dog****. Stripping a citizen of their rights because you don't support their political values is the exact opposite of what it means to be an American. After they were democratically elected no less.
  11. The same warmongering centrist who thought it would be a good idea to send troops into Iraq. One good decision doesn't cancel out one bad decision. Biden and many centrist Democrats clearly thought it was a good idea to allow DubyaMD and the Bush Administration to have full authority to unilaterally invade Iraq. They went along with faulty intelligence that said Saddam had ties to terrorists organizations, was trying to build a nuclear weapon with yellowcake uranium from Niger, and had weapons of mass destruction. There were 23 brave Senators and 123 House Reps who did not by into the Bush Administration's warmongering and saber rattling. They get credit for making the right decision that Biden didn't. As to the Fetterman issue, I think Fetterman's voting record has made it clear he isn't much of a progressive or leftist. Post-stroke John Fetterman has been a completely different human being and not at all like the candidate who ran in 2022.
  12. Warmongering centrists are leftists now? It was the left (plus Ron Paul and the libertarians) who warned Iraq was going to be a complete disaster. It was. It is now the left warning that bombing Iran and launching a war with them will have dire consequences. I just hope the center of the party learned lessons from Iraq when most centrists voted to allow DubyaMD to invade a country under false pretenses and fabricated intelligence.
  13. Maybe Trump can get all the warmongering centrist Democrats to act like cowards as they did under DubyaMD and go along with him too.
  14. So Medicaid activists in wheelchairs get arrested the day of a sit in but it takes months to arrest MAGA protesters who used bear spray on police, smashed their heads into doors, beat them with barricades, flag poles, batons?
  15. I'm guessing this is a salary dump for Edmonton? Will they be in pursuit of a goalie this offseason? I can't imagine they want to keep rolling with Skinner.
  16. LOL are we trying to imply that either right wing Democrats Cuomo or Adams are component? Of course incompetent people like Cuomo and Adams will be attacked for being incompetent and corrupt.
  17. Wings released their centennial logo. I went and did some research online about this. From the research I did Meijer was not around 100 years ago. Also, looking back on the old school Red Wings logos, the Meijer lettering wasn't apart of this. Unless I missed something or it was in very small font. ****ing hate that Meijer logo on the logo almost as much as the Priority BS we have to put up with.
  18. I love the whole Mamdani will be a disaster, as if a right wing Democrat like Eric Adams hasn't been a complete ****ing disaster during his tenure. The dude got investigated and indicted on corruption charges for god sakes.
  19. Cuomo running as an independent screws Adams and I'd think cancels out some of Cuomo's advantage there too.
  20. Maybe voters don't want a corrupt, sleazebag like Andrew Cuomo to be Mayor.
  21. OMG!!! Democratic Socialist and Muslim Zohran Mamdani is going to be the next Mayor of New York City.
  22. Would you be in anyway disappointed on Friday if the Wings didn't package the pick at #13 as apart of a deal to acquire an NHL player? Do you want them to trade the pick?
  23. Democrats 2026!!!!!!
  24. Where was the congressional authorization for this attack on Iran? Was the War Powers Act passed by congress?
