Most important, get copp of the team.

Who do I hate more: Holland or Benn

My ideal line-up for Detroit 5 years from now: Connor Larkin Raymond Mazur Danielson Buchelnikov Soderblom Kasper Berggren Lombardi N.D.Nilsson Hanas Finnie ASP Seider Edvidsson (Anton)Johansson Buium Gibson (Albert)Johansson Cossa Augustine

Nice episode guys! Don't think Ehlers or Necas gives you anything you can't get from Berggren, who will be a ton cheaper. Both Ehlers and Necas are very inconsistent wingers that generally do not play much D, same as Berggren at the NHL level. That said, I think in some combination of trade chips including Copp, Holl, Berggren, Veleno and Husso need to be marketed. In return, I would look at the likes of Eriksson Ek from Minnesota even if it means a deal sweetener draft pick beyond the trade chips. I would also look to sign Marchessault as a free agent. If they cannot land one of the three goalies you mentioned (Marksstrom, Ullmark or Saros), a one year deal for any of the top 5 goalie FA's will get you through the year. Just my 2 cents.

Another Goalie that we should look into is Connor Ingram from Utah. Yzerman drafted him in Tampa and look how good he did this year in Arizona/Utah and his contract is good

You blew past Driedger, who was a workhorse for Coachella. He's much better than you think and shouldn't cost much for a short-term fix.

Cossa started slowly but was excellent this year especially down the stretch hes 6'6" excellent athlete so he was always going to be an extremely down the road, high ceiling prospect, which is why Yzerman took him over JW. And Augustine is not ranked ahead of Cossa.

The red wings won cups with the grind line. Oh by the way they scored goals and were not just checkers .Best 3rd line in hockey at that time.

Cool, you want saros.. good luck making this roster viable with that contract

Unless we can find an upgrade at goalie, l wouldn’t make major waves this offseason. Stay the course. Young kids are developing nicely

So how many ken holland drafted players are left in the organization. Could've had necas and pasta

Apparently the latest rumors circulating in Ottawa are that the Sens are gonna try to trade for Ullmark with Chychrun going the other way. Idk how tf that's gonna work though.

Sam Reinhart? Right wing, playoff experience, goal scorer.

Augustine over Cossa is probably the recency bias when considering how Augustine did at Worlds.

I think if Bergs Gets Traded then it will be Kasper and Danielson

Jonatan Berggren swapped for Oliver Wahlstrom?

Larkin flopp compher don't work hard they collect disability #michigan #drw #lgrw #detroit #redwings

Danielson is on his 4th season in the whl I would hope he be dominating at this point

I don’t see a scenario where they bring in 3 new forwards and 2 new defensemen this year. Berggren, Mazur, Kasper, Danielson, Soderblom at F and Edvinsson, Johansson, ASP on D. Trades are definitely coming.

9th in scoring. 24th in goals against. This is pretty simple.

To heck with Ullmark and Swayman, think more like Fuhr and Moog hopefully!

If Danielson can single-handedly beat Moose Jaw, he can skip GR.

Lalonde would put a Rookie with Petry and scratch Walman like a noob

But signing Kane is a slap in the face

Raymond is the one who you get at 8 years he could walk away and still get paid and SY just lost a player still in his prime. Not smart

Seider could leave also after 6 years if he keeps seeing FA players and no Playoffs because SY is probably not smart enough to play the young players and then thinks he should trade for experience and then get shafted. The team needs to get rebuilding and stop giving over 30+ players a contract just because he wants to make the playoffs but again he needs the talent and two way players that can come up and play a heavy game and not be pushed around like the team is except for a few players.

I think center is the one area that is going to be better now with Danielson and Kasper and I don’t want Larkin Comparable to a player who could be way better. Let’s see how they do in the first 3 seasons.

Danielson could be a First line center and better than Larkin. We don’t know till they get a chance

I could see Seider asking for Edvinson because he is sick of being the only person who defends on the first pair.

Bergs I don’t blame him if he leaves because he will either be a stud or a Dud I don’t want to see a bunch of FA players to be signed for too much or too long and then turn into a Copp

Larson could be a late bloomer like Lyon was this season for Detroit except when playing too many games in a row, Lyon struggled and Reimer had a good game and then he was horrible

There is 0% chance anyone in this organization viewed this season as a success.

When using +/- as a stat, it's really important to take the context of the rest of his team in account. A -12 on a bad team, is probably not that bad of a stat, if the rest of his team is way lower than that.

My two cents about Burger is as usual. His window of opportunity was last year's edition of RW. His big challenges are twofold, being too good for the AHL and his lack of two-way play. I usually state that RW has actually abused his career by letting him go up and down. If I were Burger, I would have chosen to find a new home in the NHL and that is what I have mentally prepared myself for. No one questions his technique or having a nose for getting into dirty blue surfaces. Can he replace Perron today! Absolutely not as Perron is still ELIT at the things he does so very well, along the board. There is a vacancy as Sprong does not have a contract. Here, Burgren's weaknesses actually speak to a slight improvement as Sprong is extremely puck-watching. However any other team gets more points out of Sprong as he has consistently done that, Burger has not done that yet in NHL. Burger's future contract may be similar to Sprong's, which I personally always considered to be on the low side for the plus points that Sprong actually does annually with very little ice time. However, I think it is possible to teach Burger to play a better two-way game than what 27-year-old Sprong has learned throughout his career. For me who loves Sprong, I have always been extremely surprised that He, who is Dutch and moved to Canada at a very young age, did not learn the most fundamentals of defensive play. So the question for me is who to blame! Is it the person Sprong or a mix of person and the system that RW and other teams use that is the real problem?

TLTR - Axel Sandin Pellikka joined Skellefteå AIK's junior operations in the 2019/20 season from Malmbergets AIF. Malmberget is located in the northern part of Sweden and is 180 miles from Tomas Holmström's home district, Piteå. What is there to do in (Gällivare)? You will find fantastic nature and darkness and cold and sports and mining. Certainly something more of value, but not something I attach value to as I'm from Gothenburg (Raz's hometown). In January 2023, ASP signs a contract with Skellefteå AIK. The contract with ASP extends from now until the end of the 2024/25 season. The plan (The Y-plan) has always been for ASP to remain in the SHL for an extra year. A week ago he then signed an ELC contract with RW and S.Y has already stated that ASP will remain in the SHL until 24/25. ASP is invited to be present during this year's RW camp. This offer gives RW & ASP the opportunity to introduce him to the RW organization in depth and us fans to see where he stands against his peers. ASP will go back to Sweden and finish his contract with Skellefteå. There is of course a small possibility that he will take a place in RW, however, that possibility is minimal, I give him 5-10%. It is a bigger possibility "on paper" that ASP will come over to e.i AHL if Skellefteå does not make it particularly far in the playoffs season 24/25. It is very unlikely that Skellefteå will be eliminated in the first round as the team is very good. As a fan of Frolunda, I certainly hope they do so and btw - Congrats on the championship though. It is true that the SHL starts before the NHL, but it is no obstacle for ASP to go over to the camp this year. The other advantage is also that the NHL and AHL start later if Skellefteå does not manage to advance :P, so here is the opening and it is very clear that S.Y has planned to use parts on ASP ELC to be able to plan what the next step is for him. By the fact that RW has an ELC with ASP, it means that all three parties agree on the content over the coming year, since ASP has a double contract. RW has a very well-developed collaboration with most SHL teams, Skellefteå AIK is no exception here. Staying in Skellefteå is nothing negative, but only positive. As he is 19 years old and still needs to develop. In a very short time, he has gone from being an U18 player to being in the SHL permanently. He has had competition for his place in the year 23/24, however, it has already been decided that player will leave Skellefteå for the NHL. Which then means that ASP will take his place at 99%. Many people do not knew that ASP has actually played a whole year on the wrong side (left). Next season will thus be his first in Skellefteå where he will be in his natural place, namely the right side. As we in Sweden have a larger ice surface than the NHL/AHL, the "sides" do not play such a big role here. But It is also very positive that ASP has spent a whole year on the wrong side, as he develops his body in a completely different way as certain movements can be perceived as unnatural for a player on D. As his future colleague, he gets the team's best defender and veteran by far and that player has all the experience that will transfer to ASP in close cooperation with RW of course. This is where RW's current staff comes into place in Sweden and it gives them the best opportunity to be continuously present on site around ASP. Media and Fans should not underestimate what a few months on an ELC can give RW as an organization for advantages in their own planning. So RW Camp this year will be a toll to convey what he needs to focus on in the next 12 months. At the moment I give ASP a 5-10% chance of taking a seat in RW in the next 12 months. Most likely he will do a year in the GR (AHL) once he's over. And if it turns out like this. We shouldn't see it as negative, but completely in line with what RW as an organization usually does, namely give time for young people to mature and ern the spot in the rosters. We use the same idea in Sweden when it comes to young people at this age.

I've 100% been on the Nate hype train since day one. And I can't wait to see him in Detroit next year

Greg I am going to disagree with you too. It doesn’t make since for us to by out Petry. I Believe he came here to finish out his career and he will. Personally I don’t care what happens to Matta and Holl. One or both will be gone next year.

Who hurt Scotty

You guys cool with trading Walman?

You figure with Edvinson on the defense and Johanson cant be sent down to the AHL without waivers, thats 8 defenseman on the roster for next year. Their would have to be a huge roster change to fit in another d man with a trade or signing, i cant see where they do 8 defenseman on the roster, but i guess it could be done with only 2 goalies on the game day roster. Regardless, it ought to be an interesting offseason for Yzerman and how he puts the roster together and how he fits in under the cap with Lucas and Seider big money contracts coming in.

Beyond Bergers,Johanson, and Edvinson, the first two dont have waiver exempt, i dont see any young prospects making the team. Yzerman is gonna have to prove his comment about younger players forcing themselves on the roster. After not bringing Edvinson up for most of the season, he has to prove it. He also has to prove he isnt going to do the Holland approach and fill the roster up with veteran players. We shouldve had some prospects on the team this year, for our teams overall development. To me, it looks like our prospects our over ripening like Holland used to do.

U wont get Markstom for less than a 1st rounder, and you dont do that. I agree goaltending was horrible this year, but you dont sacrifice valuable assets to compete for a playoff spot, you just dont. Now, if its a goaltender who is going to be around for 4-6 years, then u can.

Hopefully next year the Red Wings Team now will look totaly different this season with mind blowing signings and mind blowing letting guys walk. I hate to see.

The situation is obvious to me. Need to trade for Markstrom. He will be happy on a team with so many Swedes. In two to three years then Cossa and Augustine move into the picture. Lyons would be an excellent 1 b. But goaltending needs to improve.

Time to start the real rebuild, so that they can get back to the playoffs and get better as the prospects that can play should be getting the experience so they can be a better team and learn to be a playoff team.

YzerHolland fucked himself with bad contracts.

It doesn't make sense to punish a team for winning in o.t. why does that count less, because its 3v3, ok then go back to 5v5 and call a win a win, either that or get rid of points for losses and just count wins, I don't care if it doesn't benefit the wings in future seasons, as a fan id be emabarassed to have my team be a minus 20, have less wins than other teams that dont get in and get bounced easily in the first round, i get what the NHL is doing, but if you take away the points for losing you'd make games more competitive all season long, and you wouldn't have teams barely getting in due to technicalities only to be completely non competitive in the playoffs, which is the time the NHL should be most concerned about competitive games as the playoffs bring about more viewers, as even casuals are more likely to watch playoff games over regular season games. Terrible strategy from the NHL, but I wouldn't expect anything else from this horribly run league that doesn't protect players from being boarded and punishes players from helping to slow down guys who are running other players in the boards, this is why players have hated bettman since before I started watching this atrociously run league.

wings blow

Man a Debrincat, Stamkos, Kane line would be sick.

Who would take Holl?...He is here for two more years
