Because as it turns out, he was secretly the manipulative sociopathic mind game player I've always wanted THIS ENTIRE TIME. First two seasons he was happy funtimes friend coach. Wouldn't even say a negative thing last year when we were blowing huge games on a huge skid. And as a fan it made me want to rip my own hands off. But listen to Derek now. His attitude has shifted so extremely, it's clear he was wearing a mask the first two years. The boys play a decent preseason game and he says stuff like "we lacked spirit, emotion, focus, and it's not acceptable". I'm like hell yea, gloves are finally off, lets go. Friend Derek is dead. It was a ploy to get closer to the players the first 2 seasons. Probably helped him to cut guys like Kostin, Walman, and Fabbri out. Now he's shape shifted into "get your ass in gear or get off my team" Derek, and I like it. Edited October 6 by Jimmybigrigs69 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AtlantaHotWings 1,089 Report post Posted October 6 DETROIT – The Detroit Red Wings today assigned forwards Nate Danielson, Cross Hanas, Marco Kasper, Carter Mazur Elmer Söderblom, defensemen Tory Dello, Antti Tuomisto, Eemil Viro William Wallinder, goaltenders Sebastian Cossa Carter Gylander to the American Hockey League’s Grand Rapids Griffins. Additionally, the Red Wings have loaned forward Michael Brandsegg-Nygård to Skellefteå AIK of the Swedish Hockey League. guessing sending MBN to Sweden is to give him more time as GR is packed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think that's out of the question. Nobody needs a goalie right now and it's hard to get teams to take on that salary right before the season starts. But if we hit the end of November or December with three healthy goalies there should be more of a market given that there will almost certainly be injuries around the league. I think we're in a strong position if we've got three healthy, capable, goalies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't disagreee. His frequency of injury is high so far in his career. But he's also never had a serious injury or needed surgery. For example, when he split time with Binnington in STL he got injured. But he still managed 40 starts, and played more games than Binnington did. His first season in DET he got injured twice in March, but still managed 56 games. Most goalies don't play that many games a season. Last season was the outlier, but again the two injuries he had were minor. He came back too early from his first injury which caused him to basically have to restart on his recovery time, and then got another minor injury right after finally returning. I wouldn't say he has an injury problem. He just seems to tweak something at least once a season, but he usually recovers from that quickly. It's his last season on this contract, and he has a limited NTC. It's hard to trade a goalie with an NTC because most teams are set in that dept and he can easily block the few that aren't. Just let him finish the year and we can decide to move on or not at that point. Like i said, so far he's been the best in net this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scott R Lucidi 675 Report post Posted October 7 Guys, I see where you're coming from. It's spilt milk under the bridge at this point, but FACK. Frustrating to be having cap squeeze problems with complete TRASH (Chiarot, Husso, Petry) taking up 10 mil+. It's not like this is a new problem, either. We all noticed it by the end of the 2022-23 season. The SCAM needs to pull his head out. 2 Akakabuto and Rick D reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He would instantly be the #1 LHD, plus he is better than Chiarot and Maatta combined. Sure there would have to be major surgery done to the cap, but dumping Husso somewhere would be a good start!

I think you are overrating Fowler. Edvinsson, Maatta, and Chiarot are fine down the left side. It's the RD after Seider I am more concerned about. Petry is no longer a 2RD and Gus is playing his offside. Edited October 7 by Axl Foley 1 stephen-gregory-yzerman reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
