If this is his plan then please fire him now. No reason he shouldn’t be big game hunting at the top of the market this summer. Don’t care if you have to overpay he needs to get a couple elite talent players

Ben chiarot needs to be off this team next year. Hes so bad. He actually makes seider worse and worse at defense. I feel bad for seider having to play with him.
I agree with others. I hope at this point we just keep losing and drop to the 6th or 5th pick with some luck. I feel bad for kane because he's playing out there and yet many of the other players on the team just hurt us too much. But get another good draft pick and then Chris ilitch needs to sit down with Yzerman and tell him Montreal started their rebuild 3 years after us and yet look at them. We either make playoffs next year or someone else will take things over.

I agree with this. The excuses are done, he’s had long enough. No reason this team shouldn’t be a firm playoff team by this point. His decisions in FA have been a complete disaster

Yeah, but they were on the Grind Line! You can’t fire them!
I doubt Chris even remembers he has a hockey team.
He cares about the Red Wings as much as he does finishing District Detroit, which to this day is nothing but parking lots and tarped off empty fields.

Yzerman over the last ~14 months starting at last deadline is the worst GM in the league, or at least close to it
I meant Chris, not Steve.
Chris Ilitch, wife file for divorce: What it could mean for Detroit Tigers, Red Wings
Whether the split will impact the teams will depend on their ownership structures and whether the Ilitches have a pre- or post-nuptial agreement.

Smith looked good as 4th line player. After multiple seasons of Veleno I completely forgot how a good grinding center should play.

It sucks to scavenge GR of all their good players but I’m really close to just wanting Danielson, Lombardi, Buium, Wallinder, Cossa etc. getting looks the rest of the way.
This. Team would definitely win more games no question about it

Holl was night and day better than Seider so ya I agree on that one
Apparently we are asking a lot. It really is crazy to think this is year 9 without a playoff game. Wouldn't shock me if this drought reaches Buffalo Sabres bad. I just don't see it changing any time soon.
Like our goalies to start next year are Talbot and Mrazek, and all these pylons on D are still signed. It's really hard to be positive with this team. 9 years of losing with no light at the end of the tunnel, but Yzerman will tell us all to be patient in his end of year presser. May as well just take a recording of his presser last year and play it again, he's gonna say the exact same things
