Wings not being in on this kid while they’re an hour down the road and Draper’s son plays there…like come on man. I’m also convinced that any NCAA player that Montreal is in on or drafts is going to be good at this point.

Sources indicate NCAA UFA and @umichhockey captain T.J. Hughes will be in high demand once his season ends next week. After turning down NHL offers last spring, he is primed to sign an ELC soon. A couple of Canadian teams expected to be in the mix. rg.org/en-ca/news/hoc…

Here's another one. Larkin vacates the middle to change when PIT had the puck.
On one hand, everyone else changed so he didn't want to give up the whole ice, but his change opened up the space for the pass through the zone that ended with a goal against. DET is in trouble.
Topher Scott@HockeyThinkTank
COACHES: Here is a GREAT teaching clip on the importance of defending the middle first, especially in transition. We see this a lot in youth hockey - when the puck gets turned over, players will loop out towards the wall to get back in transition. When the most important part of the ice is defending the middle. Watch the two CAR players Staal and Ehlers on this clip. When MTL gets the puck, they turn outside the dots rather than stop and take the middle away and come back through the guts of the ice. MTL makes a pass through the middle and attack the most dangerous part of the ice on entry leading to the goal. Awesome teaching clip to show your players!

How long has he been GM? You point out 1 trade he made less than a month ago.
The first time he made an aggressive move and he was forced to do it.
I am talking about his entire time as GM in Detroit. He should have been making more meaningful moves throughout not stockpiling picks for players who frequently don’t work out.
You can disagree all you want but you’re a fuckin dumbass if you think he’s done enough at this point in his tenure.

@MarkHalsteadTV "hoarding picks" Bro he literally traded an unprotected 1st a few weeks ago and it's looking like one of the worst moves he could have possibly made
English
If Yzerman stays, what actually changes in 2027?
I’m not talking vague “young guys get more experience”, I mean real change. Hoarding picks and keeping low performing players on the roster isn’t moving the needle.
Gibson was a good move (before the season). Faulk was a good move (deadline). But outside of those two, what was the last impactful move? DeBrincat three years ago? The rest have been bullshit, and he’s accepted mediocrity from too many players.
The real concern is this: if he stays, is he actually willing to make enough changes this offseason to materially improve the team? Or are we getting more small, incremental moves and having this same conversation in 2027?
He’s been very vocal about sticking to his strategy, so what’s realistically changing?
Best case maybe we sneak into the playoffs next year and get bounced in the first round? And we’re still years away from being a real contender?
Same plan, same problems, same result #LGRW

Another very important March wasted

@DetroitRedWings @TrinityHealthMI That is the 1st period for most other teams in the league and you guys had to watch how many hours of film to stitch that together? Embarrassing
English
@DetroitRedWings There better not be a puck at another practice all fuckin season. Bag skate them every day until April 15th
English
I agree but you pay him whatever he wants and go all in, or you sell the team. You can’t sit at the table with the big dogs and be a pussy.
If he pays him and it doesn’t work out, at least he took a shot. Every single Tigers fan supports it and it buys him some breathing room. If he doesn’t, he’ll be the most hated person in Michigan. And if you add in the Wings missing the playoffs again, there’s no coming back

@MarkHalsteadTV @NHLRumourReport Part of the Skubal issue is his agent is a greedy scam artist… that’s why they went and got Valdez…
English
Nick Kypreos: We are keeping an eye on Steve Yzerman in Detroit. Ownership, led by Chris Ilitch, may be feeling more pressure...to contemplate a change; If the Wings miss out on the playoffs this season...fan-based pressure will hit a fever pitch - Sportsnet (3/30)

@GrindLinePod Scratching the only guy that gives a fuck is an insane coaching move

Sitting Dom Shine and letting Appleton play is mistake number 1 tonight.

Democrat Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer posted a video declaring her support for "Trans Day of Visibility."
Here's what she supports:
-Men invading women's sports
-Men invading women's restrooms
-Putting p*rn books in libraries for kids
-The g*nital mutilation of children
-LGBTQ indoctrination in schools
This is the Democrat party.

He is 100% right here.
The problem is that Copp and Kane were both asked about it and said that he hasn’t directed those comments to the team directly.
That is a problem.
How he hasn’t broken a chair against the wall in between periods and started calling individual players out is fuckin baffling

Gotta be the most embarrassing thing you can say about a group of professional athletes
It’s one thing if you don’t have the talent it’s another if you don’t want to compete

"We're going into April and practice should be just polishing things up and away you go. You shouldn't be trying to extract competitiveness or heaviness on the players at this time, but we are," Red Wings HC Todd McLellan was critical of the teams play on Saturday night

@BlineBullDozer @GinoHard_ What tough organization do you support bulldozer?

@MarkHalsteadTV @GinoHard_ Detroit and Pittsburgh are both soft organizations

@NHLTradeAlert @thegoldenmuzzy If you do it in off season it gets buried while everyone is off vacationing and enjoying their summer.
You do it now and it’s a gigantic “fuck you” being yelled through a megaphone.
English
@thegoldenmuzzy Very strange. What is the benefit of doing it now and not in the offseason?

An hour before the Gudas game.
Interesting timing.

Toronto is making a change at the GM position Let go of Brad Treliving tonight
English
@alex_crescenti The fans are equally as shocked considering they have done the same fuckin thing 5 years in a row and management/ownership hasn’t done a thing to address it.
Maybe consider benching a few guys? Send a few to the locker room mid game? Something?

NHL DOPS President George Parros is expected to be in attendance for tonight’s Leafs vs Ducks game, per @davidalter 👀
It’s the first meeting between the two teams since Radko Gudas ended Auston Matthews’ season 😳

He’s 3 years into his rebuild and his team is currently 3rd in the metropolitan without his two best players in the lineup. Meanwhile Yzerman is in year 7 and his team is imploding (again).
Like him or not atleast Dubas is willing to take some shots and make some moves. Yzerman’s response to a team in the bottom half of offensive metrics at the deadline this year was to sign an old injured has-been who hasn’t done a fuckin thing. What’s been his crowning achievement as GM? Signing DeBrincat 3 years ago? Yikes
