Red Wings

I have to say, I totally thought they should just eat it and hold on to their assets. They were able to move down a few spots, pick up an extra pick, and get rid of the contract? That's a great move. Maybe Holland still has a few tricks up his sleeve.

It was nice but it would have been even nicer had we not had to make that trade to shed Dats. Arizona got a great prospect in Chychrun.

Is that who the Wings would have drafted? I think we all like to look at the players we missed out on not trading up, but it's hard to tell specially with only a 4 slot difference who our teams would draft if nothing changed. It could have been any of the other three or exactly whom the drafted.

The fact is shit happens Dats has spent the last 3 years dreaming if going home to finish out his Hockey career. He left, Holland did great to minimize the impact. Let's give Cholowski a chance. I mean he's no Ebron.

I like the Wings' draft. They picked up 4D 2F and 1 Goalie.

They should have been drafting D years ago when they realized Smith or Kindl werent progressing. A little too late.

They also signed the free agent D-man from U of Maine (Renouf).

Red Wings re-sign Drew Miller to a one-year contract worth $1.025 Million

[jaadam4]

He's great on the PK and its cheap.

[WingsFan]

Yea, if he can bounce back after being hurt all last year. He's what 33? would rather see fresh faces, but this will help keep the streak alive.... and from what I have read shows Helm the door, so we got that.

[jaadam4]

That's how I read it too.

Working to keep the streak alive over all else is exactly the problem.

Early indications are Toronto is the front runner for Stamkos

Don't trust the polls.

[jaadam4]

Oh believe me I'm not. Last time I put faith in hockey FA those same sources said we're getting Suter and his running mate. Shows how that one turned out.

[jaadam4]

Man I wish we'd have gotten Suter
