Here is one more I don't get. I understand the value of Christian Fischer and I can see value in Tyler Motte.
I don't see the value in having both. This is similar to what they did last year doubling down on crap with Holl and Petry which helped keep Ed down. They are basically the exact same player, around 30 point grinders. The two of them on the roster are going to keep Kasper down. Would rather one be gone and Kasper on the roster.

Never mind that. Get rid of copp. Play Kasper on the 2nd line and compher on the 3rd line where he belongs. Much better.
Just watched highlights. Team defense is still crap and goaltending is still a big issue with us. Neither were addressed this off-season. Another bubble team-ish season incoming.

You mean he didn't hold is on pair like some here stated he would? How shocking, why isn't he the ultimate superstar D-man already?
He. Was. Not. Ready. Last season. What is it you don't get with that?
Exactly, kid needs time. And Chiarot needs a couch he can play Commodore 64 on.
For this game, they shouldn't have started Huuso.
Too many weak goals against, but it's one game. Possible to play into shape instead of falling off.
Little disappointing letting in 6 goals vs. a team that wasn't really playing well.
Felt like a preseason game.

let’s dispel any notions that copp is in anyway a useful player. He is not. I don’t care if he scores 30 points. I don’t care if he PKs. He brings nothing to anything. This is a guy who had like 30 hits in the past 90 games or something. He is charmin soft at checking, and he doesn’t have some sort of offensive potential to make up for it. He is a mediocre skater at best, guys not even fast. Even when he was running a shut down role, he’d get burnt. No, he is a grinder who isn’t good enough to be a good one and only scores some points because of the minutes he plays because he’s forced to play up the lineup, if you switched him with veleno I genuinely think even veleno could do better in his role, and I think veleno is a replacement level player. Worst part is, copp is actively keeping kasper from being on the roster with his shit contract. Probably one of my least favorite red wings of all time, like there’s so many nights where he just looks like he’s not even trying. I can handle players who aren’t very good if they give it their all all the time, this guy seems to just not give a rats ass. Someone tell me if I’m wrong, like I may be being irrational but he bugs me so much. I appreciate he blocks shots, and he seems like a good dude personally, but as a player I can’t stand him.
