Follow me on Twitter Follow @TheJeremyLaura Updates: Carolina has pulled Brind’amour’s extension offer at a very odd time (according to Dreger). Rod, as a player, was everything you want to see. As a coach, that carried over. He’s rumored to still hit the weight room with the team and can o...
Follow me on Twitter Follow @TheJeremyLaura Grand Rapids. Outshot Rockford 28-25 but Cossa surrendered 5 goals as the Griffins fell 5-1 in game 2 of their first round in the AHL post season. While there were chances and good puck movement, there were several odd man rushes against after plays in...
Follow me on Twitter Follow @TheJeremyLaura At the beginning of the season I asked for input on what size of extension Seider and Raymond could command. There seemed to be a “leaning” toward longer term higher dollar for Seider with a 4 or 5 year lower deal for Raymond. That was 31 goals ago...

Follow me on Twitter Follow @TheJeremyLaura In Yzerman’s 6th draft as Red Wings GM, the Wings are picking at 15. It’s been a bit of a quandary to try and predict the first round selections and this year may be no different. Outside of the top 3, things seem wide open in some years. Central Sc...
