Yzerman took a team with so many promising young players and then added more veterans to take away spots and then fired Blashill for another version of Blashill in Lalonde, his crony from Tampa. Took a rebuild/retool that should have been putting the Wings back on the rise 2yrs ago into the same stagnant spot in year 6 of the Yzerplan.Red Wings are a good example of tanking wrong. No top 3 picks. Just stuck.
It’s a good example of what we’re expecting to see with Dubas and Sullivan for the next 3+ years as well, except without any of the young talent they’re wasting.
It’s like what Dubas was doing in Toronto, hung on to shit when he shouldn’t have, he could have moved one of the young forwards for another cornerstone defenseman like other teams have done but refused to do it because he made promises that he couldn’t go back on because he’d look like an idiot - like his shit with Nylander.
