I'd swap Kasper and Compher. There's no point in having Kasper center the 4th line. Send Motte to GR. Call up Watson to sit as the 13th forward so Elmer can play second line and be the enforcer in GR.

Agreed . Zero point keeping kasper on the 4th

Todd's gonna ruin the tank.....

 

[Go Wings]

Canada vs USA at the WJC at the same time..yah I won't be watching this game. I hope we win though

 

[14ari13]

4 points game lol.
It is interesting that if we win tonight we will pass the Rangers who had a super hot start of the season

Hopefully!

 

[JohanFranzenstein]

Let's f***ing go! Give me revenge for the home opener!

 

[saska sault]

Todd's gonna ruin the tank.....

That's OK, I want to enjoy watching this team.

 

[14ari13]

Hopefully!

If we make playoffs yes, but if we finish just outside then it sucks

I want Rasmussen to hit Crosby and/or Malkin like he did Hughes on that empty netter against Jersey.

Ras is a joke. Plays too soft his entire career, but then poses against some dwarf like Hughes. He better put more muscle to his frame and take on the Tom Wilsons of this league.. or keep a low profile.

LOL ras did not hit Hughes, Hughes tried to hit him. Ras would run if Tom Wilson was coming at him like Hughes did. Ras is a soft player, always has been, always will be.

 

[Winger98]

I don't think Ras is soft. I think he lacks the ability to leverage his size. He goes to the boards, he tries to take the body, he's just often ineffective at it.

 

[theYman]

I'm just glad the Chairot Petry pairing is over even if he has to play with Seider. And Kasper should be on the 2nd line. He's an energy guy. Copp is slow and had no offense

 

[cjm502]

My interest in the Wings has reached this seasons peak but Bald Eagles vs Maple Syrup is a cant miss game. Since I'm not watching they will probably top last games first period with a five goal first period, but again, that doesn't matter because Bald Eagles vs Maple Syrup.

 

[Zetterberg4Captain]

That's OK, I want to enjoy watching this team.

100% agree

If it was Lalonde then a sell off and tank was fine

But with a coaching change, then a buy(longer term asset) and playoff spot compete is the way to go

"There's always a little bit of Antarctica in Motown whenever we see Penguins on the ice, and tonight being New Years Eve makes it even more special. It would also be special if the Red Wings could defeat their opponents tonight by the same differential that Detroit's temperature today is beating the temperature at the southernmost continent's McMurdo Station - 39 degrees Farenheit to 30 degrees Farenheit."

I don't f***ing understand what Veleno has done for a spot at top6? This dude can skate, that's all he can do.

Edit: Berggren Rasmussen Motte Rasmussen whoever is better, this dude is a waste of a roster spot. Waive Veleno.

Dude has had all the chances in the world and he has 7 points in 32 games? Wings fire a coach and hes in top6 AGAIN? wtf is going on?

Edit: also hello to the dude who messaged me and said "veleno" wants to talk to you"

He's pretty good with his skates all-around...

Everyone's getting a fresh start to prove what they can do. Not hard to fathom.

Hes pretty good in tieing up his skates, that's about it.

Joe Veleno is a good hockey player that has been utilized in an odd way since he was drafted.

Is he McDavid? No lol. But let the coach evaluate his players.

Really? Who else are you going to put that the only player that makes sense is ADB. Maybe Kaner. I’ve always thought Veleno/Ras would be good with Larkin and Raymond because of their skating and board play. It’s important. It’s why Perron was so damn good despite being bashed all of the time. Players like Veleno sometimes compliment players in a first line role.

Joe Veleno is a good hockey player

YEP lost me there.
