Wings make offer to Green

[Henkka]

Oh well. I want to see Hronek on our team before the all-star break.

You can trust to Kronwall's knee and Ericsson's hips. Or Green's back. Or Daley's overall IR history.

Given that we have all those guys, they still were considerably healthy at last season. Don't believe it could happen again.

I hate that we have 4 defensemen like 33 and older slotted into the lineup + Dekeyser. Gross. At least in 2 years (IIRC) they will all be gone except for Dekeyser.

I've said it before and I will say it again, even with Green our defense is still absolutely awful. He is the only defensemen we have that can actually produce offense and I really hope we can sign him. Without Green we might actually have the least productive group of defenseman the NHL has seen in a very long time, and I have no interest in seeing that.

My opinion might be different if I felt like Hronek was ready for 20+ minutes a night in the NHL, but I think he needs a little more time with the Griffins before he is ready for NHL duties, let alone playing big minutes.
