Are the Red Wings the worst team in the league?

[razor ray]

It’s been a rough few years in Detroit but this year looks to be the worst. Nashville is just pounding them into the ground tonight. Detroit is dead last in the league in GA and 2nd to last in GF.

I mean I wouldn't say that unless you don't consider ottawa a team.

 

[Claypool]

Yes, this is a tank season.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Yes. They are atrocious.

Yzerman has his work cut out for him.

 

[serp]

I mean they have an absurd amount of players past their prime on their NHL squad while a decent amount of prospects who probably are ready for the NHL are with the Griffins in the AHL .

This seems like an intentional tanking year for the Wings.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Yeah probably . One of the 3 worst at least but did anyone expect anything different? I mean look at that roster, woof.

 

[raymond23]

Yes

I mean I would say that unless you don't consider ottawa a team.

Let this sink in though: the Ottawa Senators have given up fewer goals than the Maple Leafs.

I think you meant I wouldn't say that unless you don't consider Ottawa a team.

But realistically Ottawa has the worst roster, they're just playing better as a team right now than Detroit.

 

[Super Fadio Bro]

Yep they are.

 

[Nemesis Prime]

 

[Rockdan]

Yeah. They're playing even worse than the numbers indicate.

The prospects in Grand Rapids aren’t ready for the nhl. It’s going to be a long year until we see who we are drafting between 4Th and 6th overall.

Get lost man, last place is ours.

You’d like to think but having an absurd number of players past their prime is the usual Red Wing way. So there’s reason to worry. Hopefully Yzerman has a better plan in place than whatever the team has had in the last 5 seasons or so.

YOU WISH!!!

May the worst team suck more

You guys are amazing, we are gonna get creamed. We are terrible! You guys look like a bunch of winners to me.

You guys have way better management and ownership. Smells like a winning culture to me

Well at least the old guys on defense are all expiring. Forwards still have some years left. So Yzerman will have some caspace to play with . Hopefully he does something better than what he did with Filppula who got a second year for no reason.

 

[razor ray]

Green, Daley, Howard, Ericsson, and Franzen are all off the books after this year. But they still have several other bad deals.

36 million going into next year.
