I really really hope they don’t. Other than Kat and reclamation projects players the UFA signings and trades haven’t been inspiring.

That was fun to watch for meaning nothing... Sad the way the season ended. Encouraged by the kids and new coaching staff.
Really wanted to see Cat get 40.
Grand Rapids is a reason to keep watching. I cheaped out and didn't spend a dollar on going to a Wing game this year, hope there is a home playoff game I can make coming up in GR.
For off season speculation. If Marner would sign here, figure it out. They have 3 guys signed "long term", you figure the rest out later. Also hope Yzerman can bury/move 2-4 main stays from the roster this season. Should be achievable through a combination of waivers/buyout/trade.

We’d have over 110 points if we didn’t blow leads in such pathetic and embarrassing fashions.
Truly. It’s gross.
I was fine with the team all year and had hope until that disgusting month of march effort. And even now I have no hope.
I think next year will be the same too. And because of constantly being let down I won’t get excited for the team unless SY finally does something this summer and the team starts to play and close out games without collapsing. It’s brutal.
Too much trash. Too much lazy effort.
Also hot take : TMac doesn’t have the room either. I literally have zero faith in the club right now. And I think he’s just another LaLonde. Those winning streaks were lucky and part of a longer honeymoon phase.
In my 30 years of watching this team and the crap load of money I’ve spent on it as a fan this season was the most frustrating for me.
By far.

I don't think I've ever seen a postgame interview with Larkin where it didn't seem like his world was ending. I swear if this team ever won the cup he would be standing in the locker room with champagne spraying, music blasting, and he would have the same stoic look on his face "yeah, that was a big win. We got pucks in deep and did what we had to as a group. We have a short summer and need to get to work pretty quickly".
Been thinking the same...Lalonde gone - players look competent - after tournament players look clueless again.
What gives?
Looking fwd to Yzerman's presser
"We all wish things would go faster"
"I didn't necessarily think playoffs was the goal"
"Still not there yet"
"It takes time"

Yeah exactly.
Unless there’s something spewing in the locker room and it’s hindering progress.

wishing the tv crew had common sense and realized this would be an ugly interveiw and just asked two simple questions and moved on instead of dragging it out
So who'll take over for Keating in October?
Personally I'm hoping it's Trev Thompson (if he wants it)...Great personality, always positive, big smile, hockey flows thru his veins, superduperhockeysmart.

So 39 wins, had 41 last season. I expected a step back so this tracks for me.
Kasper 19 goals and Dcat 39 goals ugh.

He has the summer to go back to his parents house and destroy the basement

Correction, that would be THE DUNGEON
Didn't Billy Joel sing (to the tune of The Downeaster Alexa)
Well I'm on the ShanahanMan HForum
And I'm cruising through Negative Waves
I have charted a course to the GDT
But tonight I am Negative bound
We took on some hope with some good streaks
And start the night with the horn singing loud
Like all the posters here I've had to watch some few games
Where I thought the Wings wouldn't end up the same
...
something like that?

To draft a slightly different middle six player? I'll pass.
Detroit should be packaging their first rounder for an actual player, not continuing to bank on magic beans for another five years.

Not sure who needs to hear this or even wants to hear this, but over the 47 games when McLellan was coach and had the chance to coach the team (from Dec 29th onwards), the team was on pace to put up 97.7 points over the entire season, which would be good for 5th or 6th place in the conference.
I am a big Yzerman and Yzerplan supporter, but his calm, measured approach with the regard to keeping Lalonde around for far too long likely cost the team a playoff spot this season.
To Yzerman's credit, he said he expects this team to compete for a playoff spot when he announced McLellan as the new coach. He's got a coach who over the past 47 games has shown he can do that. He's also done it in Edmonton and Los Angeles.
The team should be better next season, with real depth at center and an improved defense.

if we won we could still pick the #1. At best with 12 we can pick second with a win in the lotto.
Aww, shucks. If I can do it remote from Minnesota, maybe...Hopefully dalem can audition
