So reach in every round? This should work out well. I predict one NHL player for Detroit. A few who guys who stay at AHL level. And two guys who we lose for nothing that play in NHL for other teams. 11 draft picks wasted. Congrats!
we need to face facts. its going to be a while until this franchise is a cup contender again. and kenny doesnt even run the drafts. Wright and his staff does.
Ken Holland isn't going anywhere. The Illitch family will resign Holland when his contract is up in a year. Count on it. And this franchise will continue to suck as long as Holland is running the organization. He's too set in his old school ways and the new NHL has passed him by. He won't be gone until the team sucks so bad that Little Cezar's arena is half empty. Holland = Matt Millen of NHL.
I really hope Hakan Andersson is right about these draft picks. Because it appears Holland and his scouting staff really sucked at the draft table from what everyone is saying. I knew it was a bad omen when Jim Nill left with his two best scouts for Dallas.
