08/09, yeah.

 

[Tetsuo]

The Mule scored 34 in 08-09. Still been a long ass time.

The Mule scored 34 in 08-09. Still been a long ass time.

Hossa has 40 in 08-09.

 

[KJoe88]

Hossa has 40 in 08-09.

Too bad he used them all up in the regular season

 

[Cyborg Yzerberg]

We went from four different thirty goal scorers in 2009 to zero in ten years lmao.

 

[BinCookin]

I think we had 3 30 Goal scorers that year.

Hossa, Z and Mule

 

[Martinez]

Happy for Larkin, nice to see a 30 goal guy that works so hard at both ends of the rink.

Never thought AA or Larkin would be pushing 30 goals this year. Thought it would be Mantha if anyone.

 

[Henkka]

30-goal scorers seems not to have any connection for winning Stanley cups. Or even having a playoff spot.

I think he would be there if not for his injury and missing a month

Neither do 100 point players it seems...

 

[DetroitRed]

Also, first Red Wing not named Zetterberg or Datsyuk to get 66 points in a season since Filppula (2011/12). Dylan might make it to 70 this season.

 

[Sentinel]

Congratulations, D-Boss! Now here's to AA doing the same!

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

Hossa, Z and Mule

Those were the days

 

[newfy]

Pretty good considering what he has to work with/the D that are getting the puck to him.

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

I still think AA leads the team in goals by years end. Mantha better get to 20 as well. And hopefully Bert too.

 

[Gniwder]

The last time the Wings won the Cup, they only had two 30 goal scorers. Maybe they just need more depth scoring, I hear Danny Cleary is available.

Seriously though, the team has Larkin, AA, Mantha, a little from Bert and then nothing else.

4 Datsyuk, Z, Mule and Hossa.

As suggested, the issue isn't the lack of 30 goal scorers (though it would sure help if we could locate a 40 goal sniper/power forward!), but the fact that outside our young forward, this team gets very few goals down the line-up. Nielsen & Glendenning with 10 goals as 6th & 7th in scoring just isn't good enough, especially as 5th is Vanek who basically can't skate at a good enough level to be effective outside of the PP these days.

The other problem is the PP itself. That's where a lot of the elite players like Ovechkin get a lot of their goals. Need better coaching and personnel there especially if Vanek isn't re-signed (and no, I don't want him back).

Team will get deeper as we add Zadina, Veleno, Svechnikov, and maybe a top 5 pick this year.

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

AA could very possibly do it tonight?

That sums up nicely how the last 10 years have felt on the whole.
