Detroit Redwings Downfall

[Luigi Lemieux]

FYI sometimes players continue to improve while others get older, have injury problems, have down years, or/and regress

Not sure what you're trying to say. If Makar and Hughes have down years then the wings dmen will be the top two in the league? Like I said, delusional.

Shesterkin is a pretty big part of their team too . Yeah they got lucky, but they also had Lafreniere, Zibanejad, Chyril, Kakko, Miller , Cuylle , Lindgren, Schneider.

Montreal has more top end talent in their system than Detroit

The Habs do not have more current NHL top talent.

They have prospects, the same as Detroit.

The Rangers have an entirely different team if they didn’t win the lottery (twice), and have two top 10 NHL players at their position come got free.

Absolutely ridiculous to compare the two situations

A Wing's fan. None of us believe either of those two will be the best in the league. There are seasons where they'll get Norris votes (hopefully), but neither of them will be in the running for best DMan.

Umm No, they are best pair in league alrdy by some analytics. they are 21 n 23 years old. seider is a top 15 D man alrdy n sky is limit for Ed. There is a chance they could b best 2-men in league at some point.

Seider and Edvinsson have played like 15 games together. Can you chill out? We'd be damn lucky if both ended up as top 30 dmen. That would be fantastic.

As in one of the top pairings in the league? Sure maybe.

Individually the 1st and 2nd best D in the league? Hell no lol.

Red Wings get clowned by the Anaheim Dicks of all teams. Lol, lmao even.

Edit: DUCKS. Anaheim DUCKS.

Are we allowed to say dicks? If so. Than why you being a dick dude?

Total auto correct error my dude, ahaha.

 

[ccman68]

Yzerman is a good GM but far from perfect. Even with the Bolts he signed Dan Girardi of all people to play with Hedman. Just an obsession with defensive D who aren’t actually good at defense other than shot blocking.

the whole organization has embraced a loser mentality

such a pathetic team..

Yzerplan though...lmao

 

[abo9]

I feel like I saw this thread last year and got laughed at for questioning the "Yzerplan".

My team is Montreal and we have the same issue. Until the kids arrive and establish themselves as stars (not just as "good"), then yeah JT Compher and Ben Chiarot aren't gonna do anything.

Perry and Kesler aren't on the team anymore so it's just Ducks.

 

[Dotter]

Then you didn't watch the whole clip and "Lowe talking" about how he knows a thing or 2 about winning. It's now Oilers folklore.

Again, I fail to see the connection. "Lowe talking" vs "Dotter talking". I am flattered you would put me in with some NHL GM authority.

 

[Hockeyfan2390]

Derek Lalonde has to be fired.

Detroit went over 12 minutes without a shot against the Ducks, and as they always do, stopped attacking after getting a two goal lead.

Once again got outplayed and outshot against a team they should have easily beaten on paper.

You'd think a team with the two best dmen in the league would be better than 7-8-1

 

[Boo Boo]

Total auto correct error my dude, ahaha.

Your autocorrect corrects ducks to dicks?

 

[Nogatco Rd]

Name one job in which someone would get to skate by for six years without making any significant improvements.

Has anyone said Republican nominee for president of the United States yet?

 

[Coach Reggie Dunlop]

Our coach sucks and our GM manages like it’s 2004 rather than 2024. We suck. I still actually do like our prospect pool, but it could be better. That’s about our only hope. Yzerman will probably screw it up though with his awful contracts and questionable trades. Oh and yeah another thing, our pro scouting is awful, legitimately worst in the league. Guess who runs it? None other than Chris yzerman. Love some good ol nepotism.
