GDT: Game 41: Red Wings vs hawks 7:00 pm et 1/10/25

Tarasenko has been really bad. Idk what to do about that situation

He gets moved if he asks SY to do so, but I don't think SY will move him otherwise...his bigger value to the team may well be next year if Buch comes over...but even as the 3rd RW, he has some value for yutes (JB this year and Danielson maybe Buch next year?) it will hard for Tank to move up the line up with Ray and Kane on RW as well. (He is not comfortable on the Left side at all)

So overpaid for where he plays, but really not a long term issue, the wings have lots cap the next few years (for now)...

I didn't see last night's game (stupid NHL Network) but since Mclellan took over Tarasenko has looked better than he has all season,. Hopefully that will continue and he starts to produce.

A high tide raises all boats, everybody looks better than earlier in the season. Holl and Gus even.

Wings have played fewer road games than any EC team, just 18. After another relative softie at home vs. SJ they have a tough road trip, four games in sixdays vs. Fla, TB, Dallas and Philly followed by four home games vs. Montreal, TB, LA and the Oilers to close out the month. The mishmash of WC contenders won't become clearer for another 20 games, but we'll soon get a better idea of how sustainable their better play is and whether they can take it on the road vs. good teams.
