He's pretty much sucked but it's what I expected so no big deal. At least he's not in the top nine anymore.
Sorry for bumping this thread but I was curious how Richards has played for you guys
Haven't watched a lot of Wings this year and was wondering if this may be it for Richards
His play was slipping these past few years and he will be 36 yrs old soon
Still very happy with his one year as a Hawk
Honestly reminds me of Weiss from last year. Decent production but doesn’t really pass the eye test while watching him play. Would scratch him in favor of Jurco if i had a choice
Actually just looked up the stats.
Richards : 61 Games 9 goals 15 assists
Weiss : 52 Games 9 goals 15 assists
So exactly the same production as Weiss interestingly enough

I'm probably the biggest Richards fan on this forum. And I'll be the first to say while he hasn't been a detriment, he hasn't also helped the way I hoped. So to that end, I wouldn't advocate he have a place next year. And that sucks for me to say, because I'm such a fan of his playmaking ability and hockey IQ. We've seen it on display a few times. That backhand chip pass to AA the other night, for example, was a play not many of our guys make. Heads up stuff like that has been missing from the Wings for awhile.
