well he did draft Howden, Hajek and Namest ... and Smith

i will only believe it when it happens,
word has been the family wants back to Detroit area, since the rumors began he would step away from TBL

 

[Leonardo87]

This is very interesting. Thought he wanted to go back home to Detroit. Will be awesome
If it happens.

 

[SI90]

I heard Don Legreca say this too. Would have to think even with Yzerman wanting to be close home That the rangers job being open changes things.

Yeah, I think he ends up in Detroit and John Davidson takes the job for us. Yzerman would be unreal though

 

[Machinehead]

Anybody but f***ing Messier

 

[SML2]

Heart votes for JD.
Head votes for Stevie Y.
Reality is Gorton probably slides up and Drury follows. There's no benefit to bringing in a new philosophy 2 years into the rebuild.

That's funny to see we in Vancouver hate him but figured Rangers still loved him.

 

[EdJovanovski]

PLEASE

 

[Machinehead]

He has no experience coaching, managing, or as an exec.

It would be akin to making your friend CEO of your company.

 

[DFC]

So after years of picking and plucking at their roster, now he wants the whole team? That's just greedy.

 

[who_me?]

Yzerman's millionaire wife wants to go to Manhattan.

 

[HawkeyTalkMan]

Have to wonder if the quotes Holland indicating he doesn't plan on going anywhere anytime soon recently is making Yzerman consider the rangers job now.

If Holland tries to pseudo run the show still from a president position and doesn't give Yzerman full autonomy as GM I could see why he would look elsewhere if Detroit was the original plan

Doubt it. Holland can't comment on anything other than what he's been saying. Yzerman is rumored the Detroit job and Holland is in the running for the Seattle job.

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

Get f***ing rid of Holland. If he cockblocks Stevie again I'll be furious

He was secretly molding it to turn it into a dynasty this whole time.

So that's why he gave you Namestnikov. Secret weapon.

Namestnikov was merely a pawn.

He knew we would trade Tampa's pick to move up for K'Andre Miller. After he wins four Norris trophies, we'll let Namestnikov induct him into the HHOF for his role.

Got ya don't follow him didn't realize that. Thanks.

Or Namestnikov is helping with the tank, like Yzerman's secret agent, so Yzerman himself doesn't have to endure those years.

It's an interesting story. I still think the stars are aligned for Detroit.

 

[Wingsfan 4 life]

I'd assume Yzerman would have, in the very least, the slightest interest in every and all management positions that are currently open.

BTW, does Brooks have psychics as sources? How can someone have knowledge of ones thinking?

 

[Hasbro]

He has no experience coaching, managing, or as an exec.

So he’s headed to Edmonton.

 

[JTToilinginToronto]

Please no.

They should hire Peter Chiarelli instead.
