AA will be sent down when everyone is back on the roster. Ouellet and Sproul are not going to be waived to keep AA in the lineup for 8 minutes a game. But Jurco will also have a lengthy recovery stint in the AHL before he rejoins the Wings. Also don't like the suggested lineup decisions. You can't put both Nyquist and Tatar with Zetterberg.

I doubt Jurco gets claimed, but I won't lose sleep if he does.

Sproul in the press box isn't benefiting anyone today.

Time to trade Brendan Smith for picks.

Yup trade him to the NJ Devils for a 2017 3rd rounder, The could use another D man.

The problem is no one wants our players for anything. Picks or trades, Kenny boy has a bunch of over paid lower end small players and we are stuck with them. may as well face it we are in for a full rebuild no retooling on the fly. we suck and just have over rated over paid players.

hey, you're stealing my lines!

Trade Smith, insert another kid, and the Wings won't miss a step. Not that it would be noticeable at this moment.

Guess we have a different definition of facelift as it pertains to this team.

It's interesting/hilarious that, for a guy who's universally panned by Wings fans, who carries a $2.75m hit, and who's no longer a kid, y'all still think Brendan Smith would actually return anything. I don't like to defend Holland for not trading a guy, but I doubt there's a team in the league that wants Brendan Smith for more than free, and even then I doubt more than a team or two would put in a waiver claim.

I cant believe people still defend KHs ability to be an NHL GM when he more than any other GM in the league employs more players who have no value whatsoever to any other club
