- rebuild is being run expertly by yzerman , hes nailed every 1st pick / wins every redraft ! and has stacked up a highly rated by all pro hockey sources group of prospects . hes done fantastically on the draft floor . yes there was the weird walman occurence but he was a stolen asset anyway , and the d'cat occurence makes up for it as this guy is kickin azz but whiny redwing fans find no joy in him having an allstar season
- nobody including yzerman cares what all the cry baby fans that dont know what theyre talking about think , he took over the worst depth chart in nhl history (
2019-20 Detroit Red Wings Roster, Stats, Injuries, Scores, Results, Shootouts | Hockey-Reference.com ) ands got it back to middle of the pack with all kinds of solid prospects on the way . bunch of contracts run out next season , then significant ufa are brought in to join a significant wave of maturing prospects . 2026/27 we compete with anybody if cossa becomes legit nhl starter
- and yzerman is so intense and commited to the detroit red wings and mrs ilitch that there aint no way hes moving up to the grand daddy chair til hes using lord stanleys cup as a foot rest
