Noah Brown got released in Houston, wouldn't mind the Lions taking a look there -
Red Wings 2024 Off-Season Thread

Could be Raymond's agent putting it out there, but that was tweeted by David Pagnotta who is notoriously unreliable especially when it comes to the Wings. He tweeted the same thing about Larkin during their negotiations. Could be something there but I figured I would add that caveat. I am anxious for Seider and Ray to get signed. -
Obviously not the best footage...drives to the net and looks like he goes five hole to tie the game. Then what looks like a power play in OT he's set up as the right side bumper and scores the game winner with a one timer. Both the type of plays I love to see him making. For a kid who's "big" knock was lack of high end shot it is positive to see. It seems like Austria is asking a lot of him so this should be great for him.

Doesn't include today's two goals or crossbar, but nice compilation of plays

Cannot wait to get this kid in a Wings uniform I'm trying to be conservative in my projection for him, so I'll say he'll only be slightly better than Ovechkin

Kasper is playing for Austria in the Olympic qualifier warm up games, trying to find footage of his goals! This was against Slovenia

One holdup I've had on Mazur is his weight, but boy howdy am I excited, from the Winged Wheel Podcast where they interviewed him: "The weight room is somewhere I've been living the whole summer summer. I needed to put on weight and I feel like especially training in Detroit I have all the resources around me to do that. I feel like it's been a really successful offseason so far. " He says he is currently at 6'1 185 lbs. I hope he keeps pumping that up and can actually maintain his weight game in season were it is incredibly tough to do so.

https://x.com/LGRWProspects/status/1826210610884833551 MBN has had an excellent start in the SHL.... though he only has Nygard on his jersey maybe I need to start going with that Ended up on the bottom but I love to see him going at guys ASP hasn't played in either of the two preseason games with MBN so that has me a little worried...guessing injury

He can take both of my feet if he wants, awful news -
He's number 40

Like how they did with Marc Staal? Or getting reclamation projects like Fabbri, Walman, Bowey or Perlini?
-
It will be interesting to see how he fairs in Montreal

Oddly enough I know someone who's parents were on that flight haha. They had already been super delayed because of a plane malfunction too. I was shocked to see it was ol Gosder this morning, crazy. -
I realized that it was time with the new seasons starting....we should get a lot more highlights as the SHL season gets rolling.

Red Wings 2024 Off-Season Thread
slothfacekilla replied to Mr.TaterSalad's topic in Detroit Red Wings
I'm not sure what trading Larkin would do except thrust them back into another extended rebuild. It pretty much means guys like Seider and Raymond won't be competing much in their primes and undoes all the incremental improvements. And we've seen how long a rebuild can take, I don't think anyone wants to do that. I think they're still trending in the right direction and just need to hold course. Maybe my rose tinted glasses are too thick but I think guys like Danielson (puck carrying/possession in the neutral zone, zone entries on offense), Kasper (**** disturber, playoff performer) and MBN (heavy shot, excellent on the forecheck) are going to be fantastic compliments to what they have, they all bring an element that the Wings really need. I think you have to get them in the mix the next couple of seasons and see what you have. Add in that Cossa is developing and they have a couple other younger goalies in the mix I don't think you have to panic if they don't make the playoffs this season. -

Red Wings 2024 Off-Season Thread
slothfacekilla replied to Mr.TaterSalad's topic in Detroit Red Wings
I don't think he's on the hot seat but if the Wings start the season badly he might be. I do have some bones to pick with him. He seems to be reluctant to use timeouts to calm the team down when games are slipping away, maybe sticks with some line pairings too long too. And a few times he's explained plays / his defensive system and it feels much too rigid and kinda odd at times. Maybe they just don't have the personnel to run it correctly? All that being said I think a coach's impact on wins and losses in the NHL is fairly minimal these days so I am not clamoring for him to be fired. It'll be interesting to see if he grows as a coach as the roster gets better. -
I think Edvinsson will start the season in Detroit, just not on Seider's pairing. I kind of like the idea of having them separate anyways, at least one of them will be on the ice 2/3 of the time (theoretically).

Newsy kinda looks like Dan's kid, but he always kinda looks like a giant baby to me anyways 😂 -
A lot of progress has been made on my neighborhood pyramid. There was a Spanish speaking "news outlet" (I put in quotes because it seemed like a low budget affair) doing reports on it this morning it seemed like

Ya I'm starving for any Wings news / info so I figured I'd do a pretty pointless update there lol. Really itching for them to get the Seider and Raymond deals done. Apparently Plante looked really good for USA during that summer tournament, I'm really excited about adding him to the prospect pool. I have forced some more "info" in!
