Griffs lock up a playoff spot with a 5-2 win. Cossa extends his point streak to a franchise record 16 games (11-0-5) Walleye clinched their division with a 3-2 win

Berggren is...I think...an RFA. Would not be surprised to see him go back to Sweden next year.

Bubba Baker...

Veleno is fine as a 4th line C...he just doesn't have the skill to play top six...which he has to do when Larkin is hurt. Petry....no. Would rather see Tuomisto than Petry or Holl playing that RHD spot on the 2nd or 3rd pair.

I would hope Cossa gets some NHL action next year...or sooner if we drop too far back of a playoff spot

Earl Weaver used to say you won with three things...pitching, defense and three run HR's

Cossa and Wallstedt carried 1st rd grades that year...its rare that any goalie carries a rd 1 grade. Trying to determine depth of draft vs rating on a year by year basis is pretty subjective....not sure it can be done until years in the future At any rate...both of our top goalie prospects had great weekends Cossa picked up a point in his 15th straight game...something that hasn't been done in GR since 2002 and Augustine was selected most outstanding player in the B1G tournament. Goalie was a system wide weakness when Yzerman took over. Like a lot of postions..we have some depth now

The lack of news on Sutton's whereabouts leads me to think there's some back channel discussions going on. Or...he's cut ties with everyone around him and done a runner

Seider throwing hands!!!

Noooo....I'm comparing a prospect who carried a 1st round grade in his draft year...was drafted in the 1st rd and now has two years of success in pro leagues against a guy who was and is not as highly rated. Augustine played well this year....so has Cossa. Its a great situation for the franchise....having two young goalies in the system with NHL potential. I' m not sure why some Wings fans are down on Cossa as prospect when he's progressed nicely since his draft year

Cossa has had two successful professional seasons...Augustine has had a good year in college. Im not trying to diminish him as a prospect..but I dont see any evidence to project him ahead of Cossa

At this point...Im more worried about his physical/ mental health

Not sure why you view Cossa as a bridge to a goalie who wasnt evaluated as highly and has less of a track record.

Cossa may be worth a look with the big club soon. The Wings/Griffs just signed Carter Gylander...so there's an extra goalie in GR

Put Brock Purdy on it...he had no trouble finding Sutton during the Championship

Uh-oh....if he's in any way, shape or form guilty...gotta think he's gone

Stamkos and Reinhart are both UFA's... Failing at signing another C...I would like to see them try Raymond at C in camp

Wings have called up Edvinsson!!!

Islanders have lost 4 in a row...race to the bottom

Should have called up Kasper...hevplays with an edge

From an Insurance/liability standpoint... Its probably mandatory to have the team medical staff involved

If the sign Reader...I hope he stays healthy and becomes our Weekly Reader

Shes playing different characters... Its a device to establish that a different character is speaking

Im sorry... What?
