Never said that, and doesn't mean what he did won't work.

Some on here said that.

You mean give it a chance?

Hmmm...

Detroit needs goalies, too. They have exactly ONE twenty goal scorer.

Why do they get a pass?

Because we are not Red Wing fans?

Appreciate your time with another great blog.

Everyone should be disappointed losing to the Bruins at home 7-0 . I paid for some nice club seats this afternoon.
Premier game on the schedule.

I'm not sure if the coach lost the players or what?

Since the allstar break /trade deadline something broke.

Tuch, samuelsson and dahlin clearly injured.

Something else though, trading everyone's best friend for the coaches best friend smells fishy. Add in a guy like stillman.

Expectations got raised and lower .

I think okposo playes his last game today as well.
Just put the C on greenway and carry on.

“ Since the allstar break /trade deadline something broke”

It’s like they left all their vibes in the Bahamas

I’m sure Dahlin playing hurt, Tuch playing on one leg, and Samuelsson missing time doesn’t help much

Youth is no damn excuse to stop competing.... period

That's not the point.

Yzerman gets labeled as some genius. He hasn't turned that team around yet. They're just as bad as we are. In fact, I'd take our core and kids over his right now.

This.

You know thats really all I wanted from this team... To compete and entertain.... If they lose doing that I wouldn't care but.......

If we miss the playoffs next year Granato and Adams can pack their bags.

If they still have a job the arena will be empty.

That's not the point.

I got ya.... He is no better than KA who shouldn't be where he is

They shouldn't make it to the new year if the Sabres are playing like crap

He did with Tampa though. Thats why he was labelled a genius.

All these guys know it's a business. Most of them were probably very happy for Asplund. He was getting a chance to play.
- Powerslave

Nah, vibes were broken.... trust me.

10 goal games where the goalie gets sunburn to the ir.....

Happy for an outsider with 2 goals to take over for their best friend, they just celebrated his engagement?

These guys are young pro's remember. They dont know how to handle this like vet teams. They would rather asplund play then vinny hinny or greenway.

The swede continent assplund, olo, dahlin.
Benched, traded , benched. Injured or feelings hurt...

Now, to be fair, they've done exactly that most of the season.

They just picked the wrong time to stop doing those things.

They are gonna have to make some changes in the off season.

If Adams tries to go into next season with Comrie and UPL with Bryson, Clague, Boosh and Joker playing top 4-7 His ass needs to be gone.

I would too.

I would however, take Yzerman to make the big gutsy moves that a team needs to make, whether it’s firing a coach, trading a core player or making a big trade, over Adams seemingly ending patience and love for his own players and coaches.

They would've rather seen their friend healthy scratched every game? I doubt that.

Remember the first 50 games were against easier teams.... When the schedule got tough and they played teams that actually play well... they folded

That's fair right now.

This is the make or break summer coming up for Adams to step up and make those moves.

Goalie
Top 4 D

Been a healthy scratch for Nashville a few times. Interesting.
- The_Inkwell

Asplund definitely is a nhl/ahl tweener for sure.

But if your friend was replaced with vinny hinny and jordan greenway...... you might question management

- rapperray

Except we weren't in a playoff spot most of the year, so wouldn't WE be one of those "easier teams" to play against?

is greenway and stillman an upgrade over bjork and fitzgerald?

There was that 8 game losing streak too

They have had a few rough patches

- homiedclown

I mean, is a poodle an upgrade over a cat?

Its like saying a rat is an upgrade over a mouse.

Or a ford escort is an upgrade over a chevette

I have no problem w Vinny. Asplund skates fast, plays decent defense.

Absolutely, but every other ten game segment, they had a winning record, if I'm not mistaken (up until recently, that is)
