Anyone hear the hype on Carlo? I know some folks around here really liked him in his draft year. Apparently he's killing it for the Bruins right now - on the top pairing, no less...

Laine with a hattrick and an OT game winner vs the Leafs.

Them high picks....

Up by four goals and still managed to lose that one. Not bad. Tough break for Matthews not to bury that chance in OT and indirectly causing Laine's GWG.

So... Chychrun scored his first NHL goal.

You act like the Wings need defensive help right now.

Damn... Werenski is a beast. Can we trade Columbus our next 3 firsts for that kid?

I know it is a long ways off, but I believe he will play for the Wings one day. Best friend from hockey growing up is Larkin. Think he is our Suter there, but time will tell because a lot can happen between now and when he will have the right to choose.

Big time wishful thinking, IMO. Lots of players are good friends and never play together.

If we're putting our eggs in that basket, pretty sure Larkin is also good friends with Ekblad and Ekblad is from Windsor and grew up a Wings fan.

Chychrun. Ugh. Come on, Wings.

Are we really going to bring this up the rest of his career? He was passed over by 15 other teams. There was a possibility the Red Wings passing on him anyway and drafting someone else at #16. Let's stop caring.

Kind of ironic since you like bringing up every rumored trade we were linked to from the past 5 years like once a week, no?

Werenski is much closer to him, wanted to bail almost instantly when Larkin wasn't going to be around at U of M at least in terms of rumors. They grew up playing on the same teams for several years before the USMNTDP and picked the same colleges. Is from the Grosse Pointe area and if I remember right like David Booth his parents are actually Wings season ticket holders. If he makes it to UFA, he is a no-brainer for us and we should win. Keep in mind that is far enough off, I actually expect Larkin to be our Captain at that point.
