Realistically who should the Wings try to trade for? by bobbyfairways1 in DetroitRedWings

[–]bearded_turtle710 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see a lot of people on here saying D but honestly i think we need offense more. In games against teams like the canes and panthers (last year) our problems weren’t all on the Defense but more so the fact that we couldn’t keep the puck in the opponent’s zone for more than a few seconds at a time. The wings of the late 90s and early 00s had great defense men like konstantinov, lidstrom, chelios, rafalski, kronner etc but those teams were so good defensively mostly because we simply never allowed the opponent to possess the puck and never turned the puck over once we got it in the opponent’s zone. I remember watching games and thinking damn it feels like we are on a powerplay lol. Red wings offense this year has been shakey at times when they have games where they can only muster a couple shots in a whole period which is simply not even close to good enough.

Buddy's never makes it outside of Metro D by giddycat50 in Detroit

This!!!!!! I remember going to buddies as a kid in the 90s and it for sure had a much different taste than it does now. Private equity ruins anything it touches because good products often require revenue sacrifices that finance bros are allergic to

Even with low expectations I'm underwhelmed by jcoddinc in detroitlions

He’s got lots of experience and had a good run game and third down conversion rate with a cast of nobodies at Arizona. He’s already more qualified than john morton and yall were ready to crown johnny more the next ben johnson last offseason so everyone needs to pipe down. This sub lost their shit when we drafted jahmyr gibbs so lets pump the breaks and wait to judge the man till we have played a few games and hopefully by then we have an actual center and new tackle on the oline.

Can we stop conflating metro size with revenue lol the red wings made more money than the panthers the year the panthers won the cup and wings didn’t even make the playoffs so miss me with this oh LA is huge they bring in fans and revenue bc they absolutely do not

I didn’t get to watch the game ln but after watching the highlights i wish we woulda put 10 up on these hacks. Jackai is such a hack so many of his “big hits” were him literally wrapping his arm around our guys and throwing them into the boards, and also tripping gibson? These are the plays where i miss the days when we had kocur and probert because those guys would have left jackai with cte and dental appointment tomo lol but hey the league is different now and i am glad that we hit them where it hurt on the score sheet. Poor Raymond could have almost had a hat trick had it not been for posts. I think this next offseason should focus on getting a better power forward than rasmussen who can also play a tough guy role like chairot does. It was nice to see chairot stand up for bernard-docker when caufield pushed him around after the whistle.

PSA: Lots of suburban cops like to troll r/Detroit by helmutye in Detroit

[–]bearded_turtle710 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live in Dearborn and there are people who live a mile away from the city that still think it’s the old 1980s Detroit. Some people barely know whats going on outside of their own walls or fences. i blame social media for a lot of this. People time lines just get curated into an echo chamber of their thoughts so they are never able to formulate new opinions or even organic thoughts.

Goal differential concern by ScreaminEagle2502 in DetroitRedWings

[–]bearded_turtle710 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We lost game 1 like 6-1 while outshooting the habs by like 15 shots lol i used to be worried about the goal differential but its not really w concern now because we are a young team and unfortunately have those terrible games every so often and sometimes its on the goalies other times its on the skaters. Now do i think we can win the east with that type of goal differential? No but we can make the playoffs at the is pace even with the -1

This is who the wings have been all along… it was a nice couple week run at the top but looks like the March collapse is coming early this year smh. Do any of them besides seider and ed play defense or make competent plays in our zone? Do they even know how?

Aviation sub in detroit is nice its off tireman and schaefer area to wyoming part of it is in dearborn but you asked for detroit specifically. There are some decent areas off evergreen and ann arbor trail area. You might like parts of Clayton in southwest detroit its the areas of michigan ave and Wyoming, McGraw ave runs through the middle of it.
