@buygold1234 @NickGR55 @MikeBartner Tell me who was available in FA that was a difference maker he should have signed? Draft and develop is how it had to be done. What dman should he have signed? Or traded for without a gross overpay? They'll have more points this year than the previous 3. Can't make stupid deals

@Hadz_66 @NickGR55 @MikeBartner I mean he’s done more than just draft, and in the Atlantic unless you hit on every pick you aren’t gonna be able to build a roster that’s good enough to compete. He’s mismanaged the defence horribly and the forward group is very eh outside the top line, his FA have been awful

In my opinion Steve Yzerman should NOT get a pass if the Red Wings miss the playoffs and his heat should be scorching. 50/50 if you keep him and that 2027 season would fully be playoffs or fired.

@buygold1234 @NickGR55 @MikeBartner That was the plan from the beginning...draft and develop. It was going to take time. That was said from the beginning due to what was taken on. How else was it going to be done? What difference makers were available in FA? Or by trade that wouldn't be a terrible business move?

@Hadz_66 @NickGR55 @MikeBartner What has Yzerman done aside from draft well that’s mad the wings a contender in the east? He’s been there for 8 years now and the rebuild is retooling now

@NickGR55 @MikeBartner Or you dumbasses could understand/ learn about hockey?

@MikeBartner If Red Wings fans could separate Yzerman the player from Yzerman the GM they’d realize his tenure as the Wings GM has been a disaster. They’ll still be blaming Holland for Yzerman’s failures in year 15. If it was any other GM they’d be calling for his head.

@KeithGave @GeorgeWGhindia Now this i agree with...or dont understand.

@GeorgeWGhindia From Probert, Kocur and Gallant before them... in his most productive years. Yzerman had far more room to operate than most players in the league. Larkin, Raymond, DeBrincat and Kane? Not so much. Pathetic.

Should be required viewing by these current Detroit Red Wings. Their management and coaches, too.

@kuklaskorner Proteau doesnt know shit. Hes just another casual trying to talk hockey. Might as well be a toddler talking hockey. 😆

The Focus Is On Steve Yzerman from Adam Proteau of The Hockey News, It's tough to picture anyone other than Detroit Red Wings GM Steve Yzerman with the hottest seat in the NHL right now. kuklaskorner.com/abel-to-yzerma…

@JibblePuss @NHLTradeAlert So you think grossly overpaying for "talent" that doesnt guarantee playoffs depletes the current roster leaving holes elsewhere, depleting upcoming depth(top prospects)and depleting more draft capital for "talent" that nobody traded for, would've been a good business move?

@NHLTradeAlert If he doesn’t make the playoffs this season they need to fire him. Yzerman has shown he won’t pay his lottery tickets for proven talent. A new GM would be less precious with these prospects and picks

The Sheet (Mar 25): The guys talk about what happens with Detroit and Steve Yzerman’s future. Pagnotta think his leash may have shortened & this summer is the time to use some of their prospects to bolster the lineup. “This is a you-know-what or get off the pot offseason.” #LGRW #NHL

@MusicCrj @OctopusThrower_ So grossly overpay, none of them were moved for a reason, and make holes elsewhere in the lineup and deplete any upcoming depth and deplete more draft capital. Makes no sense and would've been bad business. And wouldn't have guaranteed anything. I see how you think.

For Steve Yzerman and the Red Wings yes. This team desperately needs a bonafide 2C even with a healthy Larkin and Copp and have needed one for a long time now. Yzerman was one of the only GM's that had the absolute need AND the cap space to make that happen at this trade deadline. Most other teams COULDN'T pursue Trochek, Petterson, or Thomas even if they wanted to because they don't have the cap or the assets so the bullshit excuse that GM's in the league didn't make moves on them either is exactly that -bullshit. GM's in this league also don't get 8 seasons with the SAME TEAM without registering EVEN ONE playoff appearance. You could set your watch by it this season that Dylan Larkin was going to find a way to wuss out if Steve didn't bring in the 2C he and the team wanted at the deadline to help out with the subpar, to say the least, offense and that's exactly what happened TO THE DAY putting this team in a bad position after the extracurricular February activities as usual. Guy has done it 3 seasons in a row now. Suspicious to say the least and anyone that doesn't think so at this point is getting strung. Internal conflict between the players and Yzerman, especially between Larkin and Yzerman, is the problem here. That's why this keeps happening. Either they come to terms on this or one of them needs to be handed their walking papers. A great example of how internal conflict can destroy a team, even one that otherwise looks to be Cup ready, is what happened in Vancouver because of the feud between JT Miller and Elias Petterson. It's happening here in Hockeytown between this group and the GM. Whether it's a feud between two top players or the players and the GM the result is going to be similar.

Could the lack of gusty, all-in moves cost the Red Wings a playoff spot? octopusthrower.com/lack-of-guts-a…

@KPA9491 @Ehraroonie @NHLRumourReport Teams want top prospects AND roster players AND draft picks. They failed to mention that. Theres a reason the centers didn't get moved. Plus it would've created other holes. Made no sense and would've been bad business.

@Ehraroonie @NHLRumourReport This entire comment is from post saying yzerman was unwilling to move top prospects. That means hes not being aggressive. Which my comment was he needs to move prospect to get proven stars to help improve this team. Because free agents dont want to come here.

Anthony Di Marco: Speaking with one executive whose team had trade discussions with Yzerman...the Red Wings were not willing to move any of their top prospects...Nate Danielson and goaltenders Sebastian Cossa and Trey Augustine in any prospective trade - Daily Faceoff (3/20)

@NatSparbeck You casual fans...smh

So like, Stevie is just gonna get to sit there and collect checks…? We all love him, but at some point you can either do the job or you can’t…. A 7 year playoff drought in my humble opinion is a failure, or at least in this town it is. Job not accomplished - at all. #LGRW

@dr_ericberg Ashwaganda and Magnesium Glycinate...take both

Which nutrient has helped your sleep feel more restful?

@PeterTyahla @BizNasty2point0 @spittinchiclets What a fukin know nothing dumbass you are. Theres a reason he didn't get traded. Wtf dude. 😆

@BizNasty2point0 @spittinchiclets Honestly pissed off. They have best AHL team by a mile and 2 young goalies in system. They needed a center, another scorer and defenseman who can get out of zone. They got a statue defenseman and a guy who doesn't score. Why isn't at least TROCHECK here. Yzerman needs to go now

Talk to me Red Wings fans. I’m here for you. Where’s our confidence level at this morning? #lgrw

@Fitzzy73 @Steinner92 @Rainytuesday3 @OctopusThrower_ A very casual, crybaby fan...emphasis on crybaby. A know nothing fan.

@Steinner92 @Rainytuesday3 @OctopusThrower_ No. I'm not a NHL GM. I can't play center for the Wings either, I'm a fan. Lmao. What a weak take.

@alecwells711 @McCartyDangles 10 years?

@McCartyDangles Sabres fired their GM mid season and are now the best team in the NHL. It’s been 10 years with the Yzerman and it’s clearly not working. Anyone who is okay with the current state of the wings is simply okay with mediocrity.

Name his replacement or shut the fuck up

@KennyKott Because you predicted a loss? 😆 You and your 97.1 crew are brutal when it comes to hockey talk

Keep telling me I don’t ’know puck’. It’s been a fun season boys 🫡 #lgrw or whatever

@STlRTHEPOT @JoeytheHack1 @stoney16 Its not irrelevant...there were no #1 centers available and the "#2" centers didn't get moved because you'd have to move way to much capital / assets that would leave holes elsewhere and deplete depth. Makes no sense and wouldve been a bad business move. Get a clue dude. 😆

@Hadz_66 @JoeytheHack1 @stoney16 That's irrelevant. Be a leader. Don't sit there and look around at what other teams got and base your actions on that. Get what your team needs. And this Wings team needs a heart transplant above all else.

Why don’t Wings ever seem to screen opposition goalies like they do to Wings? #MarchSadness

@ClawsonNic @TJLang70 Don't be a dumbass

@TJLang70 Imagine if Yzerman had a set of balls to trade for Hughes like the wild did.

Wish someone other than a 32 year old career minor leaguer would bring some juice to this team

@STlRTHEPOT @JoeytheHack1 @stoney16 Who acquired a #1 or #2 center this year?

@JoeytheHack1 @stoney16 Agree with this. Or Yzerman could have acquired a #1 center, which of course he didn't.

@GrindLinePod He hits to many of the opposing players.

This is... interesting... #LGRW

@nhltraderumours This is such grade school BS. I guess anyone can start a blog / podcast without know shit about what theyre saying. 😆

Steve Yzerman’s refusal to trade prospects & picks for Robert Thomas might be the biggest mistake of his GM career. The #LGRW are falling out of the playoff race. Is it time for ownership to look at a front-office shake-up? nhltraderumor.com/detroit-red-wi…

@DailyFaceoff @JLazzy23 @ColbyCohen36 I guess anyone can have a podcast and they don't even have to have knowledge of what they're talking about! Put a couple grade schoolers in their chairs and they could do the same. 😆

"What GM in the NHL gets 8 years of non-playoff hockey and keeps their job?" On Morning Cuppa Hockey, the guys talk #LGRW falling out of a playoff spot, why James Hagens is still not signed with #NHLBruins + #mnwild AGM Chris Kelleher joins the show! @JLazzy23 | @ColbyCohen36 🎧: shorturl.at/wS4jM 📺: shorturl.at/i4xxx
