Well this is more like it. Keep it up Wings!
Pretty rare stretch here where the Wings hit the post twice and then Hronek hammers a rocket home.
Well this is more like it. Keep it up Wings!
Jonathan Ericsson clears waivers. Good riddance. I still remember his play during his first couple seasons. He was a true difference maker. And then injuries and the speed of the game got to him.
2016 46th overall pick and not-at-all-who-you'd picture-hearing-his-name Givani Smith called up from Grand Rapids today and could make his NHL debut tonight. I didn't pay much attention to him since he left the OHL and his numbers suggest he struggled in his first professional season but he has 2G and 2A in 4 games this year. Worth keeping an eye on in multi-cat leagues.

The Detroit #RedWings today recalled right wing Givani Smith from the AHL’s Grand Rapids Griffins.

Not the best thread to put this in but I thought it was funny so I decided to share.
How Steve Yzerman 'Grilled' Draft Prospect: ‘So I Heard You Smoke Weed'
Pretty funny excerpt from the latest Chiclets episode between Yzerman and (eventual) Hawk Kirby Dach.
https://971theticket.radio.com/artic...you-smoke-weed
"I sit down, I’m like, ‘Nice to meet you' -- hockey legend so I’m being respectful," Dach said. "(He) sits down, ‘So I heard you smoke weed.’"
That's one way to start.
"No," Dach replied. "I really don’t."
"He’s like, ‘OK,’ questions go on, ‘So are you sure you don’t smoke any pot, because I had some of your teammates telling me you smoke weed.’ I’m like, ‘No, I don’t really smoke weed.’ He’s like, ‘Are you sure?' I’m like, ‘Yeah,' and he’s an intimidating guy," said Dach. "He’s very intense and he’s in your face, and I’m sitting there starting to sweat. I’m like, I’m gonna have to change my shirt after this for the next interview.
"But then after I got out, he’s like, ‘Yeah, I know you don’t, but I was just fu*king with you.'"
If anyone else is a gambler....just put money on the opposing team whenever Detroit takes a lead. They are a tire fire right now
Fourth trade for Yzerman already. All four players are on expiring deals.

Fabbri wearing the popular #14 on the Wings
Certainly happy I grabbed AA in a couple leagues.
I've hung onto him in every league I own him in... I think there's 70+pts in there... might not be until next year, but it's coming.

Zadina update. Definitely started slow with 1 goal in 6 games but has turned a corner now ; 5 goals and 3 assists in his last 9 games.
