Because f*** TampaWhy?
Because **** Tampa
Second this ^yeah, I'm not going to celebrate a guy coming up short, especially not a guy who shouldered so much of the Wings for so long.
Because **** Tampa
Honestly if you remove some of their fanbase here from the equation, I can't even say f*** Toronto. They're a fun team to watch. And now with Kadri suspended it's even easier not to hate them.Why **** Tampa? They were actually fun to watch. I mean **** Toronto, or **** the Pens, but, not sure why **** Tampa.
I don't think it's hate, but the ***** everyone gets over Yzerman possibly coming to the Wings is over the top. He was a legend when he played. But we're not getting a 25 year old Yzerman back on the ice. What he will bring this team as a member of the front office remains to be seen. As was correctly pointed out above, Yzerman's tenure as GM can't really be looked at as a success. He made plenty of good moves, some not so good. But the bottom line, they didn't win. Not only that, they were spectacular failures when the were expected to succeed.

except a certain 2-time Rocket Richard trophy winner and a certain Norris Trophy winnerIf they win in the next few years, sure, his name won't be on the cup. But make no mistake, he built the team that wins.
As were the Wings until they won the Cup in '97 yet people only credit Holland for helping build that team and not for the team underachieving in the playoffs for multiple years. And that was in the non-cap world.I don't think it's hate, but the ***** everyone gets over Yzerman possibly coming to the Wings is over the top. He was a legend when he played.
