He's a stud, I can't wait for the Eichel vs. Larkin showdowns for the next 15 years!

Why are you excited to watch Eichel get embarrassed for 15 years?

Why do you cry and get someone banned when they make you look like a fool?

lol I read an article just now and thought of you. I brought up Buff a few times just as my go to guy who I think has a style that would be good for us...haha But an article just came up about him so I thought I`d share (FYI I know you were simplying stating ive brought him up a few times lol so now I`m just having some fun)

``The Red Wings do like Jets defenseman Dustin Byfuglien, but it may be hard to fit in his $5.2 million salary this year, and they’d want to be certain that he’d re-sign with them.``

No idea the reliability or what not lol just the first things I`ve heard saying the Wings have looked at him at all lol thought it was funny.

Lol, your dream is coming true!

My only reservation is that I've never heard many people talk about his defensive game, and we need stout defensive players and puck movers. But I know where that 5.2 could come from. Cough cough Ericsson or Kindl or Smith cough cough.

lool yeah I can say I'm not overly sure about his defensive side either. But yes....we have a lot of dead weight that could be shed to fit that 5.2 mil in. Anyways I doubt it'll happen and idk if id even prefer him over shattenkirk or other guys available lol regardless could be interesting to see what they do since theyd have to give salary back to make any moves...keep hearing loui erikssons name thrown around too. He's been great this year but again he doesnt really offer anything we dont have. IMO the wings need size in the front and back...they need someone who can score in the dirty areas and then someone on defense who can be a physical shut down presence. I think the wings are in an interesting position this year where a couple pieces could make us dangerous.
