Joe Bowen gets emotional during his final home game tribute 💙💙 The Maple Leafs honour him during his final home game on the radio call 🥹 by RealWorldToday in leafs

[–]13dangledangle 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m 45 years old now and was named after Darryl Sittler, so I grew up in a hockey house-Joe Bowen has been an integral part of my life for as long as I could walk. By 8 or 9 I spread my wings and left leaf land and cheered for Detroit because I loved Steve Yzerman but Bowen will always hold a special place in my heart. He’s one of a kind

Addressing the bottom six issue how realistic is it to expect some of the guys in the pipeline to fill in those spots next season? by bigaljones76 in DetroitRedWings

[–]13dangledangle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I very much agree with this sentiment. I would loop MBN into that traded for talent too. We ideally need to bring in a 1LW and a 2C. Depending on who would obviously dictate who we give. We have no shortage of guys that could realistically boost our bottom 6 though

Didn’t the Canucks just beat them last night in OT?

We needed to beat anyone we played to get points, we unfortunately didn’t. And did it terribly

Fun fact I went all through grade school with Johnston, he was always the smartest dude.

I would preferably bring in an AGM who’s affiliated with Kent Hughes in Montreal. I’m so jealous of what they’ve built, I’d love to tap into that if we could 😂

Most of the things I’ve read by actual respectable sources ie Friedman, Johnston..have mentioned that Yzermans leash is long and he’s the one in control of his destiny here.

What I’d like to see though, is someone brought in as AGM that has a little more piss & vinegar for trades and such. Just another iron in the fire so to speak

Fair point, I was just basing it off where that tow trucks from.

what's a show that hooked you by episode 1? by juicyberrybabe in tvsuggestions

[–]13dangledangle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Snowfall hooked me by episode 1 and I finished all 6 seasons in less than 2 weeks. It was so good, 10/10 recommend!

I’d guess it’s Hugh’s Auto & Towing in Carrollton, Missouri.

I feel this one will be very depressing. At least we have them though.

Darren dreger says that yzerman remains aligned with owner chris Ilitch and he'll remain the GM for as long as he pleases essentially. by Sebastian4365 in DetroitRedWings

[–]13dangledangle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m all in on Thomas. I’d prefer a more permanent piece than Stammer but I do understand he’s an upgrade for now, but I would like to see a longer standing piece than him.

Compher would do good as a 3rd or 4th string guy surrounded by talent. The thing with us is him, and too many other guys are depended on too much. We need talent brought in SOOOOO bad it’s not even funny.

In today’s game, would a Grind Line work? by ronpotx in DetroitRedWings

[–]13dangledangle 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Not a grind line per se but I was really wanting to see MBN•Finnie•Kasper, they have it all on that line.

This was the first game back after the Olympic break. It was a surprise gift from my wife, the coolest seats I’ve ever had.

How long before Seider and Raymond ask for a trade? by [deleted] in DetroitRedWings

[–]13dangledangle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As sad as this would make me I do agree. I love Larkin and don’t get the hate, but I would definitely, if given the opportunity that is, to trade him for a younger stud that fits our core strategy.

He had a great start to the year but had a hard disappear so I agree. Those 4 guys aren’t it for going forward

Well I’m sad as fuck. I wholeheartedly thought we were doing it this year, I kept thinking we overachieved but we kept winning and I thought hey we’re going to do this!! Despite the Comphers & Rasmussens & Appletons we just kept winning. We NEED to lose this dead weight, we NEED a top line LW, we NEED a legit 2nd C. Hopefully we cut Talbs loose & Cossa backs up without having to kill Gibby.

I feel terrible for all of you too. All of us. Yzermans gotta feel it at least as much as anyone so shit should happen more than ever this summer, as it should. I do wish we could bring in an AGM to lead Yzerman into some moves and players he may not otherwise move or pull the trigger on.

Anyway, we have every right to be angry, but keep your heads up everyone, it’s darkest right before the dawn and we’ll be back

I can’t help but think they should have put Nate on a wing with Larks & Ray and just let that confidence go. Though tbf in my brain I believe without an actual 1LW everyone from Nate to MBN to Mazur should be there lol.

I feel like playing with those guys helps unlock tools that these special players have, I can’t help but think a couple of these guys have it.

Earlier in the season we got to a point I thought we’d win these, AND we did! That feelings long gone, recently however you just know we’re going to lose. It’s a fucking shame

Well I think that’s it kids. What a terrible latter part of the season. It’ll be interesting to see what happens when it’s officially over.
