I was watching some youtube stream called "Woodward sports" last night...I think DMac is associated with them...during the draft. The lead host Adam...something...was touting Brad Lambert as a possible pick at 8. Dude must have researched using a Hockey News from last spring

Nice! They can take their time with Cossa

The Wings have shipped a third rd pick to the Blues for pending FA goalie Ville Husso

There was a fair amount of talk on The Athletic that The Wings were on him pretty heavily during the SHL playoffs. The lack of pure production doesn't concern me given his age and the skill level of the league. That and he earned more time and responsibility as the season wore on

Who Chicago jump us to grab?

At first I thought he might be binge watching Stranger Things...but he should've been done with that ages ago

No Flores? That's a bit of a shock

Eichel did not score 50 in a season...his high is 36. Larkin's is 32... Eichel has more consistency in his favor...and he's scored more PPG. But Larkin is viewed as being better defensively and he's not a "locker room cancer". They both have had neck issues I would expect a healthy return for Larkin and/or Bert...but...I'm not sure I'd want to bank on either one as a cornerstone of a rebuild.

At this point...all you can do is hope the man's OK.

Pronman's final mock had Slav at 1, Jiricek at 2, Cooley at 3, Wright at 4, Gauthier at 5 and Kasper to us at 8....he does indeed say NJ is rumored to have some interest in Kasper. IIRC...there was a lot of talk that we would be on McTavish or Kent Johnson at 6 last year, but they were gone before that. C with top 6 potential are really valued these days.

Haase is now OPS' ing above .700....it's a miracle!!

Saw a rumor online that July 13 would be an important date for Larkin's negotiations. My gut reaction is they're going to trade him.

Down in Lakeland, Sequera has 13 HR's ...and asub .700 ops thanks largely to a .260 OBP. He's only 19...hopefully, he'll develop some discipline

Kumar had a non-rotator cuff/ labrum shoulder operation (Per Boras) in September. Be there for us in the 2nd...later?

I would love to see them draft Jung...sounds like an Ian Kinsler, Jeff Kent type of 2B

Called it

Horrible AB by Grossman after the Harold 2B-e...stood there taking called strikes like a house by the side of the road. DFA him and bring back Daz. Park him in right and see...finally...what you have one way or the other

Plain oatmeal?

Do we have to re-sign Bagley? I'd rather not. Not sure if we should focus on putting together a max offer for a guy like Bridges (no to Ayton) or if we should take on a bad contract or two for picks and hope that we can draft a 3 and D wing and guard depth. We'd kick the cap space can down the road a bit and we'd also have a better understanding of how that pieces we have fit together if we follow tht course

Al would trade Skubal for Bat Boy

Using the Beatles as a construct...Al Avila is Ringo

I want to somehow involve a defenseman from Frolunda

Duren and Sharpe was my swing for the fences draft...Duren and Ivey will do...if Icey's shot continues to develop

Great athlete...but I'm concerned that we've now spent 2 lottery picks on guards with questionable shots in the past 3 years
