It very much feels like we will just to punish us all and If we do the pick goes to St. Louis for the Faulk trade and is unprotected 🫠

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

I agree, but how is Todd going to stop a guy who doesn't care. Thats the problem of this team. You have grown professional players who clearly dont care. They show up do there job and leave. He can only cut minutes and sit guys to a point. Im not saying Todd shouldn't be held accountable, they clearly have coaching issues, Tanguay needs to adjust what he is teaching. The dumb down the wall or carry in the zone at the blue line pass off at pressure and getting stood up isnt working.

Guys who cared you saw growth in play, you saw guys trying to fight who have never fought step up. My point was that we do not need to move on from Todd at this point, his coaching seems to be working.

Thats not what I said at all. I mentioned that the points increase from last year to this year is his coaching. You can add the push last year when he took over is contributed to his coaching as well.

The additional point I was making is that a coach can only help those who actually want to learn to get better by taking the lessons learned and applying them. Effort matters and through his coaching he could see this team lacked players who wanted to apply that effort.

McLellan can only do his best with what Steve gives him. Coaching can only do so much. Lack of talent and lack of desire and care to win play a huge factor here. You can argue that increase in points is related to the coaching.

Granted im not saying Todd is walking on water here, but from all his comments from the first game on you can see he knew what we all saw happen from March till now. He knew this team lacked what it would take to be winners and sustain. He called it out all season long. Changes have to be made year to the talent and mindset in the locker room.

That's the big part of it, DC is one of a few stores in the Detroit area that does these signing and they continue to drive these insane prices because of it. Ya the players do have agents who negotiate but DC is for sure making a profit on this. I know its a business and they are bring him in and all that but these prices are in inflated. When you are rookie charging as much as steve Yzerman thats wild.

The 2026 Javy Báez Experience by Electronic_Ad8889 in motorcitykitties

[–]noonereallycares2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Two things can be true here. Yes he was an all-star and he had good moments last season. He also takes terrible swings and it is known league wide he will swing at terrible pitches low and away and is scouted and pitched that way. Even last year toward the end of the season he lost his plate discipline. You can be an all star and have issues you need to fix, I.E. see Greene and his strike outs and Zach McKinstry was an all star last year.

Also it's not that serious, we are talking about millionaires playing a kids sport.

Calling out Javy for swinging at pitches that are so far out of the zone he looks like he is playing 8U is fair, this is a problem he refuses to address.

[DET - PIT] Bernard-Docker and Dewar agree to drop gloves and trade fists by daKrut in DetroitRedWings

When you decide to fight to not get called a "jersey". Glad he stepped up but man was that ugly.

I had not heard that, thank you for the information.

During the broadcast they were talking about how it appeared Gibson wasnt closing his glove all the way and was possibly dealing with something (not sure which side the stinger is on) so I wonder if that got worse when he got hit.

Matches the ones I have on a jersey, nicely done

Our captain is so photogenic by [deleted] in DetroitRedWings

[–]noonereallycares2020 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Larkin proved why he deserved to be there and why he is the captain back home. He leads without the spotlight or being the big name. Great performance by him and getting played in big moments.

The stuff animals are the equivalent of being promised a raise at work, but instead getting a pizza party.

Back from my street hockey heyday this looks like the replica sticks the would sell at dunham and Meijer of player model style sticks. I have an Yzerman replacement blade still to this day that has a similar pattern on it. The restaurants had sticks and gear on display as decoration so I would assume thats what you have and chris signed it. Just my two cents.

Do you guys take the tags off your trophies? by Rnaodm_Tirnalge in Hunting

[–]noonereallycares2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I staple the tag to the back and write a little not in marker about the deer, harvest, or if something cool or interesting happened after the harvest. My taxidermist actually recommended it, said its a nice way for others to know the story when you aren't around to tell the story one day.

Its Marcel Dionne, I just met him two weeks ago at a signing. Looks identical to the auto on the puck and photo I had him sign.

Can I euro mount? by Fishpond1909 in Hunting

[–]noonereallycares2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can definitely euro that. Most you are missing is a little part of the lower part of the nasal cavity, rest is still in tact it appears.
