Who do you trade? Augustine has skills that are off the charts for his age but lacks the ideal size of today’s NHL goaltenders. Cossa is the perfect size and while less skilled is still very good. Augustine is two years younger which again could be viewed as both good or bad depending on the viewpoint.

Augustine has nothing more to prove at the NCAA level. If he goes pro after this season what happens? Do both he and Cossa fight it out for playing time with the Griffins? Does Cossa come up and become the Wings backup or maybe a 1A platoon situation? Do they trade one of them this offseason before seeing what either can do in the NHL? Do they try to convince Augustine to spend one more year at MSU? Door #2 seems like the best option but what do I know.

Folks can dance around it all they want but I have no shame is saying I don’t give a flying **** about some douchebag Tesla salesman. I’d waste his time and not think twice about it. **** him and his nazi boss.

Probably not great news for Broderic Martin

Bucks, Pacers, Pistons essentially all deadlocked for 4-5-6z

I would’ve been called an idiot had I said Wayne Gretzky would become one of the most disrespected people by Canadians, and he would do so without uttering a word or committing a heinous crime. More proof that everything Trump touches turns to 💩

So very true. We all get so carried away with the initial number reported and forget it’s an agent that’s leaking it.

She’s trying to be just like her idol Sarah Huckabee Sanders. I hear she’s been crushing Krispy Kremes non stop to put on 75 pounds before the end of Summer.

I wonder if the season will solve the mysterious question of is worse to have a head coach that looks like Gru from Minions or one that looks like he’s on the tail end of a 3 day bender?

On March 11th, it’s only right to honor one of the most mid bands of their time. Not great by any means but certainly not awful either. I laugh at how they’ve aged and still try to play the same rap/rock that was so popular at that time, especially the rapper guy. Still, they deserve props for still being around almost 30 years later with the same members. Love the old school Dave clip too 1996 2024

Some things are better left unsaid.

Bottas is definitely a #2 but he’s a veteran that may not fall in line as easily behind a younger, cockier George than a greenhorn like Kimi A. Checo lost his confidence last year. It happens a lot. He’s still a solid option and will definitely be back in F1 at some point (especially if Carlos Slim is backing him). End of the day, as much as fans harp about drivers, success is still 90% about the car.

It goes without saying.

You are both wrong

It’s got more to do with total desperation by teams without an established starting QB.

That’s 6 in a row and scored 2 goals or less in 5 of them.

3 years??? That’s one of the worst deals I’ve ever seen

The value isn’t destroyed. It’s just reset for the wealthy so they can buy low again. All part of the rigged game that the billionaire class is playing.

PFF had him ranked very highly too.

I’m not expecting much from the Lions today. Lots of teams that won’t make the playoffs will overpay this week. Hearing that the desperation along with raising salary cap is going to create some head scratching deals for average to good players.

What a wonderful feeling having Utah +5.5 Comes back to cover from down 16 with 6 minutes to go including two Filipowski 3’s with under 9 seconds.

Tobias coming back should help. He’s a bit polarizing with the fanbase but the staff views him as one of their most important players.

Stevie has done a great job of drafting and adding prospects. That can’t be denied. He’d be a fantastic Director of Amateur Scouting. Maybe one of the best in the league. It’s another story as a GM. He’s made a ton of mistakes that have directly slowed this rebuild. He’s done a terrible job of signing free agents and using his cap money to his best advantage. You mentioned a few of the awful trades and FA’s that he made. His decisions on goalies have been especially bad. He absolutely 100% hired the wrong coach in Lalonde and then stuck with him far too long. So many misses that all fall at Stevie’s feet. The GM of any hockey club has to own those mistakes and be accountable for them.

This is true for **** franchises that have no real history of success. See Buffalo, Ottawa, Anaheim. It shouldn’t take a serious franchise with quality leaders and accountability to get back to competing for a cup. Colorado was the worst team in the league in 2017. They made the playoffs in 2019 and won the cup in 2023. Florida missed playoffs in 2018 & 2019. They won the President’s Cup in 2022 and the cup last year. It shouldn’t take the Red Wings 10 years. There’s been a lot incompetence and poor decisions from the top.
