He has both skates in the zone and the puck is outside the line.

The offside rule doesnt make sense anymore.

And I say that as someone who doesn’t give a shit because the Wings deserve to lose and Lalonde should be fired.

A player with full possession of the puck can enter before the puck. It allows players to skate backwards into the zone. The rule has been that way for decades.

That should be Lalonde’s season. That was so bad and embarrassing.

So glad I split my STH package this year.

So far has been a rough season, and I don't see it changing to be honest.

Team needs a hard ass coach. They need a Babcock type to be truly honest. Nobody is held accountable and no good system is being taught or if it is it surely isn’t being executed

He needs to start healthy scratching low effort players. Send Lagesson down, bring Watson up. Let him play instead. Motte won't improve this team at all, at least Watson can start a fight so we have something to watch.

Lalondes seat is hotter than that ring girl from from the Tyson-Paul fight
Is it though? I honestly don’t know what is and isn’t acceptable for this franchise. It’s become a loser franchise and when losing is normal it produces losers and those involved are content with losing. That’s what I see

Fuggit. Let’s tank this beotch.

Sell the farm. Keep Lalonde until his contact expires. Get a good draft pick and reload next year with a new coach.

How many D-men can we call up from GR that are realistically close to ready? I would welcome the lagesson up he can’t be worse. Give me some wallinder, tuomisto, whoever. I can’t watch that bottom 4 play anymore

Trade for Torts. Need someone to set a fire under asses and not accept the same result night after night.

Nah, give them Boudreau. Let him ripen their offensive skills. We expect/want more offense from literally every young player on this team, including the young defensemen, why not give them a guy known for being open-minded about offensive freedom?

And for anyone who says we don’t have the horses for a game like that, we don’t have the defensive horses to play the defense-first way either, but we’ve still tried it for 10+ years.

Gustavsson and Holl are brutal.

Anything is better than what we are seeing now. I’d be open to just about anything. Newsy needs to go back to worrying about minions and leave coaching hockey to a real coach

Gustavsson and Holl are brutal.
The sad thing is both are under contract for next year. Awful UFA d-men must just love when stevie calls, they not only get a job but they get good dollar and term
