GDT: Boston Bruin's @ Detroit Red Wings - 8 EST - NBCSN

[TheMule93]

no point overanalyzing the mistakes a shitty team makes. The answer is because the players suck

Why does Larkin never start overtime? He works his ass off to carry this team and gets to watch the beloved vets drop another one.

plus hes our second best faceoff guy behind Glenny

 

[Elmo Oxygen]

A shot any peewee goalie if saw the puck would stop it with one arm and two legs tied behind his back.

Actually Mr. I is responsible, then isn't he? No Mr. I. No Red Wings franchise. No goal.

Because of poor coaching. Most questions we have can usually be answered by "poor coaching". I mean, in the long run I want us to suck all year and get a top 5 pick, so keeping our idiot coach around only helps with this. Is he ever clueless though, holy ****.

Clever post.

 

[RedWingzz]

Of course changes are going to happen. KH already said so. Just like he did last season. Wings are on a rebuild right now. He's not telling the team to tank.

In one thread I read the most ridiculous thing, and people are actually complaining that KH isn;t officially announcing a rebuild. LOL How ridiculous is that!

Like, Really?

What exactly has Holland done to start the rebuild? Last I heard for him he was still hoping to sneak into the playoffs because "all you have to do is get in". He is in denial. He thinks it's still 2002.

 

[jkutswings]

Another good loss, keep it up and we'll unintentionally rebuild.

Just as long as they rebuild the front office in the process.

He got a pretty good return for smith

 

[SoupGuru]

Wasn't Green out there for the OT goal?

 

[Reddwit]

1 was for sure. Lets face it, he's a bottom 6 winger and should be treated as such. I am so sick of him getting ice time when he's the other team's best teammate.

Earlier in the thread people were complaining that AA wasn't getting enough PP. And Abby was getting too much. LOL, Abby is the biggest reason why Red Wings scored that PP goal.

Biggest reason with that quaternary assist of his!

 

[Dotter]

Shhhhhh, we are not aloud to talk about the roster player trades he made last yr or the fact that he acquired more draft picks than this club has seen in any one draft the past 20+ years. This year is looking to be a repeat in terms of most draft picks in 20+ years. Facts are hard to swallow for some

Let them keep burying their head in the sand and be in denial.

 

[datsyukfan]

Wonder if we can set the record for winless overtime season

This has been beat to death over and over again in another thread. People are mad they are not given an official press release about his intentions? Lol, people feel like they are owed a direct response and the exact blue-print down to every strategic detail of their rebuild? LOL!!!11!!111

Okay. DERP!

If he was, in your fantasy world, was to reveal his intentions... what would it change? Aside from the entire team mailing it in to save pain. And the team learning bad habits to be the next Oilers, what does it solve? He's not trading til TDL. So what does it solve? So you can sleep better at night. Is that it? LOL

 

[Dotter]

People sure don't like to give Abdelkader a little credit around here. He's been one of the best players for this team and is proving his contract is a win.

Build an $80 million team so incompetently that it's the worst team the Wings have had since the first Bush administration. But apparently he did this on purpose.

 

[DatsMagic]

Wasn't Green out there for the OT goal?

Yes, I don't why ppl are saying it was dekeyser. It was green, zetterberg, Nyquist.

 

[Dotter]

Only because Dekeyser is one of the official whipping boys. Green is not. Fabrication; no other reason.

Because they don't want to be the Oilers and Sabres and sell off too much, too fast which ruined the kids and compete level.

Sabres media talked about this in great detail. KH doesn;t want to be stupid and make the same mistakes that will ultimately set this team back an additional 30 years in a "rebuild"

You're not paying the salary, so why are you so hurt over it?

You can defend Holland all you want, but facts are facts. We have an 80 million dollar payroll, and are a bottom 5 team in the NHL. That's not proper managing. You sir, are the one who seems to be in denial.

Okay I can understand that side of things, but you also added the Helm, Adelkader contracts, plus free agent signings of Daley and Nielsen, when we had young roster guys who needed to be signed, in hindsight Sheahan isn't that great, but his contract was less of a problem then like 10 others but he was easy to trade because it wasn't that bad. We had to move him because of the other 10 and 4 of them were signed over what the last two years? Daley isn't as bad as the rest, but he was signed to sturdy up our D st a desperate attempt to make playoffs in the new arena.

I think this is the last of that though. I believe we start shipping pieces soon, the fans aren't coming anyway and we're not winning. Holland won't be resigned and st that point we will be a top 5 pick. I'm not too worried just fingers crossed we end up either top 2 pick this year. It could be the best thing to happen to us over the next 15 years if Dahlin ends up here and is as what is advertised.

What's the difference between an "intentional" and an "unintentional" rebuild? The assumption that this particular result was unforeseen by management and, therefore, no preparations were made in its event? What I've read/heard in the past year tells me that assumption is inaccurate.

Looks like that strategy is really working. Especially drafting multiple players that have noted compete level issues. Oh and still be bottom 5 bad.

Sheahan sucks. Wings couldn;t even give him away to Las Vegas. they took the better playing in Nosek instead.

UFA don't want to sign here. Jimmy D. said they are getting "slapped in the face" when they reach out to available players. Wings are not a destination players want to be right now. That explains why the contracts last as long as a rebuild should take. It;s all timed out

 

[ElysiumAB]

Yes, I don't why ppl are saying it was dekeyser. It was green, zetterberg, Nyquist.

I don't know who's fault the goal was, but Dekeyser started OT.

Yup. they have good players and nobody there to help them grow. Crosby atleast had Mario. Throwing a bunch of former 1st overall players to the wolves does more harm than good. The proof is in the pudding.
