I think I’d prefer Stanley over Hamonic if it doesn’t cost much.

No offense intended @1984Echoes. Just joking around.

Then his dream will be to see Anton Johansson when Wallinder is struggling.

Does it even matter? How can you look at his record and results and not see 1st ballot hall of famer? The whole thing is just embarrassing. I think Belichick is a tool. Doesn’t change the results.

Oh! I thought you meant in the draft, because Holland actually did choose Zadina over Quinn Hughes. I wouldn’t have traded Edvinsson as part of a Hughes deal. If they wanted a defenseman prospect, it’s would have had to be ASP.

I can’t tell if you are joking or got both the GM and the player confused.

Two good teams beating the crap out of each other.

Johansson is the best surprise this calendar year. He’s looked really good lately. Soderblom/Rasmussen/Appleton have been surprisingly effective recently.

That’s the second 2-1 rush Kasper and Larkin had, the first was after an amazing takeaway just outside the zone. Kasper must have seen something becuase the took the shot both times and scored on the second one.

That was the second goal. Beautiful. Then the ENG and Kasper getting one to pile on. For a game the Wings looked listless for so long, they showed up in the 3rd.

Raymond and Kasper both tried to play a puck with a high stick and their failure to actually make contact results in a 3rd goal. Go figure. Ugly counts. The 2nd wings goal was pretty.

Happy they got the goal. Ugly counts too. I’m curious what the rate is for centers being kicked out of a face off. This game seems to have one more often than I can remember. One led directly to the Jets goal.

Whelp. Down 1-0 and not feeling like the Wings have it tonight. Still a lot of game left though.

Steelers plan to hire Mike McCarthy as next head coach

Oh, any the first Wild goal was weak, somehow it found its way through Talbot but he was in position and 99 times out of 100 he makes the save. The broken Sieder stick goal was unfortunate too. It’s hard to stress enough how much better the Wings looked outside the start of the 3rd.

That’s why I was disappointed. I can’t remember the last time the Wings were that in control of a game. There was a shift with the big guys (Elmer and Ras) where we controlled the puck for an extended period. I think the Wild had someone near 3 minutes on a shift. We just looked like the better team. Frustrating given the game situation, but a good result given the schedule, surprise Edvinsson injury, and the night Hamonic had.

Played like trash in the 3rd and lost in OT.

Bad luck broken stick for Seider.

Wings are getting worked early in the 3rd.

Well, it’s exactly when he did with Morton, so yeah. Having read @MichiganCardinal’s Reddit link, I am much more comfortable with this choice. If he’s really focused on creating situations and mismatches, I think it will be a good hire. I always felt like Morton just called plays he liked without the added layer of manipulating the defense. It just worked at the start of the season due to the talent gap.

Another national broadcast, another panel slobbering all over the Wings opponent. The Wild need to learn to win games against the unbeatable East, bro.

Then they should be discussed here too. But any time the lack of movement this year at the deadline is raised, or evidence that it’s a viable strategy is presented, the Eagles are brought up because they didn’t re-sign someone last offseason or didn’t win their playoff game this year. It’s reasonable to question the lack of movement. At the trade deadline we had needs at OL, DE (or anyone who can rush the passer), CB and S. We should be questioning if not finding an improvement at any of those hurt this team’s chances at making a run. It should be fair to question if saving mid to late round draft picks for projects is more valuable than improving the team today. I love the idea of building through the draft, but reality is that even Holmes is going to miss, and many of these mid to late round picks are only viable several seasons later. This is a rough sport, it’s highly likely that injuries are going to happen that you couldn’t have predicted 2+ years ago to have the project ready to step up, so sometimes spending draft capital to improve any area, even to league average, could be the difference. I would like to see the team get a little more aggressive now that the core is in place. I don’t think that’s a crazy ask. I’d be interested if anyone has credible info and any real trade targets from this deadline. New England didn’t make and trades but they are reported to have made several offers and just got outbid. One was getting outbid by Seattle in the trade that started the latest attack. And before the strawman of “MaYbE the LiOnS sHoUlD hAvE tRaDeD fOr ShAhEeD” gets built we can all agree that the Lions did not need a WR/PR, even given our KR was embarrassingly bad. There were just bigger holes.

Also, Raymond need to figure out how to not take so many big hits. He’s not going to last if he doesn’t.
