Injured players are Brad Holmes guys for sure because they come cheaper than the market rate. If the guy can still play football and the character lines up with us organizationally, I could see Brad picking up the phone on him. The Raiders as an organization under the Davis ownership haven't exactly been beacons of high moral character and a passion for winning football themselves. I'd bet we would at least look into Wilkins give our current situation at DT with no Levi and no Alim.

Was your mom flying on the plane and listed in flight logs of pedophiles and sexual predators? Was your mom known to be close friends with a pedophile and a sexual predator? I'm guessing not. Donald Trump was though.

I'm going to be that guy to ask the question. Does someone sign Carter Hart now and would you want him on the Red Wings?

I have been a pro wrestling fan for as far back as I can remember. WWF/WWE, WCW, ECW, TNA, ROH, AEW, New Japan. Watching pro wrestling has gotten me through a lot of my life and helped me traverse some of my toughest moments. I was a Hulkamaniac through and through as a kid. I was an nWo-ite after a period of time when Hulk Hogan turned bad and became Hollywood Hogan. I know that man isn't perfect. I know he was a piece of **** in a lot of ways. He was flawed, imperfect, and yes, a racist. But I'd be lying if I said I wasn't devastated by this news. I'd be lying if I said Hulk Hogan wasn't a gigantic part of my childhood. I'd be lying if I said wrestling and everything didn't help me get through a lot of rough days as a kid. RIP Hulk Hogan.

When Trump wished Ghislaine Maxwell well years back many of us thought that was a very odd and uncomforting thing to wish for a person who helped to directly enable a predator and a child pedophile. It is all becoming more and more clear why he would wish a slimly, slippery, repugnant human being like her well.

Imagine having a conscience where you both weigh out being pro life and defending a perverted, pedophile enabler in the same brain. How does ones brain actually make that compute and work.

WSJ is owned by News Corp and Rupert Murdoch are they not? So the same company that owns Fox News is having this story broke under their own nose.

At least Trump wasn't a black women. That'd be bad.

When's the last time Suh took an actual snap in the NFL? I still want to bring back Za'Darius and I wouldn't be against giving Matthew Judon a look either.

I hate to be that guy, but I do wonder if how hard they practice has anything to do with all their injuries. I'm no medical expert by any means. But they seem to push it hard at practice and I wonder if that has a negative effect that translates to increased injuries. If the injury bug that got to this team last year continues on this season I suspect this narrative, rightly or wrongly, will get more traction.

I don't see how Tyleik won't be a week one starter at this point. Is Hutch confirmed to be ready to go for week one?

I think that pill-popping junkie stayed with him throughout his term. I don't ever recall El Rushblow flipping on Trump.

Bro, your dad is one of the scumbags. Even without the relationship and close friendship to Jeffery Epstein, your dad was alleged to have walked in on underage, teenage women while they were changing for a beauty pageant. He is also a convicted rapist.

If Dallas was willing to trade Jason Robertson I'd move Kasper for a player like that.

I've been wanting a top-tier NHL player and so there is no prospect in the system, Cossa or otherwise, who I consider off limits. We don't have a prospect on this team or in our system that is considered untouchable IMO. Seider and Raymond aren't prospects at this point in their careers and I'd trade a guy like Kasper if it meant we got high-level player in return. If Cossa was a piece of a trade that netted an NHL-ready player then go for it, assuming the deal isn't a gross overpay.

So the files that were sitting on Pam Bondi's desk in February were actually written by senile Joe Biden, an African immigrant, and a crooked guy from the FBI?

What the **** does that have to do with the national Democrats and their campaign apparatus refusing to talk about this? I get why someone like Bubba wouldn't talk about it because he's likely one of the perverts on the client list. Of course, we still need to have a pervert like Slick Willie out on the campaign trail.

Where was this during the election? I could never understand why Democrats didn't go around and call Trump a pedophile and bring up his connections and friendships to Epstein. It is low hanging fruit that could have and should have been exploited. I

Hamilton is a good offensive defenseman, but a below average actual defender, as is shown by RAPM chart (or whatever it's called). We'd be on the hook for $9 mil per year for the next three years, which is cheaper than Karlsson by around $2.5 mil. He's also 3 years younger than Karlsson is. Hamilton doesn't fit the tough, checking, defensively smart, puck clearing defenseman that we need. He'd just be another boost to the offense and we'd have to likely find room for him on the powerplay. I think I'd pass on Hamilton and may even go for the more productive Karlsson if I had to pick between the two.

Does this mean college hockey is going to become college football now? Will players be negotiating better NIL deals and jumping schools every year? Will coaches have to worry midseason about a guy wanting to leave the team and go play elsewhere? If this does happen, what does this do to fundamentals and player development if a guy ends up at 3 different schools, learning 3 different systems?

I was looking through the list of first round goalies drafted over the past 10-15 years. There aren't many of them as we already know. But I read looking to see when I'm their careers and at what age these goalies got called up and asked to play serious minutes. It looks like Andre Vasilevskiy, Jake Oettinger and Ilya Samsanov have thus far been the most successful. Vasilevskiy came up with Tampa and got serious ice time in the 14-15 season at age 22 it looks like. The next season he got more playing time and stayed up for most the season at age 23. Oettinger was called up at age 22, in the 21-22 season, when Dallas had some injuries. He stayed on the main roster thereafter. For Samsanov he was 22 turning 23 when he got called up with Washington in the 19-20 season. Cossa will be 23 next season and may not get any NHL minutes unless an injury occurs. While all goalies mature and come into their game differently during their careers, for Cossa to potentially be pushing 24 and not get any real NHL ice time just disappoints at some level. If he simply isn't ready and this is what's best for his development, then so be it. I'll trust Yzerman, his scouts, and his coaching staffs, for now. If he isn't a good player then we're opening up a whole other issue regarding our scouting and drafting of goalies as an organization and Yzerman's decision making to use a first on one.

If Yzerman is banking his career on these prospects as Friedman said then it would be nice if Cossa gets a real shot next year. It looks like he certainly won't to start the season. I'm guessing it will take a significant injury to Gibson or Talbot to see him for anything beyond a couple of games next year. Which is disappointing because he'll be 23 and we spent a disk round pick on him.

I've always said it, Donald Trump is the Matt Millen of Presidents.

Like Iowa Senator Joni Earnst said: "We're all gonna die anyways, ****-a-bitch!"
