28 days until October 14th
Woot! Gameday!!!
LGRW
Baby Wings Game Day!
Who is our camp invite crush this year now that 🥩🐟 is not in the system
Is the prospect tournament available to view or was it only broadcast live? I’d love to see that, but couldn’t find it last night.
I think Habs fans legitimately believe that the heavier a player is the better they are.
I like when hockey games are played involving red wings players.
Happy Mexican Independence day!!
WE PLAY HOCKEY TODAY!!!! THE LONG COLD WAIT IS OVER!!!!
This behind the scenes with the Equipment Staff video was so cool. It’s said a bit, but can’t be said enough that equipment staffs are the hardest working guys in hockey. Paul Boyer has been with the Wings for a while and is a legend at this point too. Also the Wings media has been on a whole new level this past year.

Buffalo and Ottawa fans are getting absurdly delusional. Ottawa fans think they’ve got an elite forward group, and some Buffalo fans now think that since they had the best record in the Atlantic from the last month of the season and beat Montreal in a prospect game that they’ve got a « division winning caliber » lineup.
Even our most optimistic take is that we’re a fringe playoff team.
I hope CBJ didn’t send a team of ECHL caliber goons to this prospect tournament once again
Frolunda liked my youtube comment and i feel special
Pretty cool news from the SHDL (female SHL)
They are now allowed hitting in their game, going to be interesting to watch.
Lemieux said Lundkvist has no intention on reporting to Rangers camp and will sit out until traded. I know they don’t need him but it really makes you wonder whats going on over their with their Euro kids all ending up this way.
Working in cyber security and seeing this Uber hack go down is terrifying, the guy literally got a hold of everything and is playing with them at this point.
Anyways, it’s game day!!! LGRW!

apparently espn has partnered with the SHL to stream games internationally. dont know what that exactly will mean, especially for the canadians among us, but we might have some better options for watching our rogle boys this year
David Pasternak to the Wings next year please… that is all.
The Athletic really needs to get a pic up for Mo
Off work early!! Uninterrupted viewing of our prospects 😋
If anyone’s at the game I’m the big bald guy in a bright yellow shirt for now and I stupidly left shorts on. My old man legs are cold.
The Water Warrior if you see me in the YouTube chat
Finally feels like hockey season again.
Do they only play 2x 20minute periods?
Does Sebrango have a letter on his jersey? The broadcast contradicted itself and said both
Are there still going to be taxi squads?
Kent Johnson looks so good in person . I wouldn’t be surprised if he has a prominent role on that team this year. I’m towards the D end cause I wanted to see two periods of . Edvinsson, Johansson, Viro, Sebrango, and Cossa. First period had some rough spots but they seemed to calm as the period went on. Cossa looks way more quiet in next, Johansson skates smooth as butter, and Edvinsson looks to be finding his way. Their forward group is good so it’s going to be a challenge.
Tuomisto with a goal and an assist today. Played on TPS’ power play.
Prospect tourney update:
Cross Hanas supremacy.
Cossa played great in his time too. Amazing on the breakaways.
Johanssson’s hockey IQ is 🤌🤌🤌, just needs to pack on weight with the JFV workout plan.
Edvinsson is qb’ing the pp like mo.
Soderblom’s skating isn’t bad as I thought it would be, good enough for NA play and his reach is insane.
Thoughts on specific players today:
Edvinsson – looks as good as advertised. Superb skater, excellent defender. Not a bad QB either. Hesitated to get back a few times, but has enough reach and athleticism to cover his mistakes.
Johansson – best skater on the ice, good IQ, great outlet passes, needs to pack on weight.
Sodörblum – Overall good showing. May need a year or two or three in GR, but he’ll play a gem when he’s nice and seasoned. Skating isn’t good, but he somehow makes it work well. He generates a ton of power in his stride and makes it look effortless. Doesn’t really need to be a flashy skater since he’s so big.
Viro – sneaky good. Made the right play every time I saw him. He’s not flashy, probably not much offense, but he breaks up plays before they ever turn into anything, keeps pucks in the zone.
Cossa – best showing above Jr level since he was drafted. Also sporting a cats eye mask. Probably means he’ll be in Toledo at the very least.
Tyutyayev – Kid is a magician. Needs more weight, but he’s super tenacious.
Lombardi – Decent skater, drives to the net, terrific hands.
PIERCEY – HOLY FUCK SIGN THIS KID. Not just the 4 goals, but good anticipation, knows what he’s going to do when he gets the puck, solid one touch passes.
Plandowski – Wasn’t too high on hin before this game, but he got better as it went along. Seems to be a much better version of Alex Cotton. Solid skater, decent instincts.
Hanas – stellar performance by him today. Plays both ways, confident in his game, not afraid to try shit. Sometimes does too much, but he’ll refine that. Love his game.
Mathieu – another Free Agent guy. Was noticeable a lot in the 1st, really quick player, well positioned. Not great at protecting the puck, but there might be something there.
Sebrango – nothing really sexy, just solid stable shutdown defense. Playing on his off-side, may have attributed to some of his mistakes.
Zito – not a terrible showing from him. Mostly the same brand of pesty, tenacious hockey we’ve seen from him already.

Man, reading this really reminds me of Mike Babcock and how he turned out.
So not sure if it’s a rumor but supposedly Jake Viratanen signed a PTO with the Oilers.
Even if you ignore the elephant in the room he was a shitty hockey player who played himself out the the league. Don’t think he was all that great in the KHL either.
We had a slow day at work on our schedule, so I used a vacation day to turn this into a three day weekend. I rarely check my email on days off, but I decided to just now and saw that, as of this morning, the research paper I was going to get an authorship credit on was published! I wouldn’t have known until Monday had I not checked lol.
Finally closed on my first house. Just got the keys. It was almost three months between the offer and closing so I’m super happy to finally be in.
It’s already getting cold out here on Vancouver Island and I can’t wait to start using my little wood stove after i sweep out the chimney. Haven’t been this excited in years.
I was watching yesterday’s game and I’m pretty impressed that the Columbus broadcaster shared the booth with Ken Kal and Danielle Bruce. That was pretty cool. This can’t be the first time they’ve done that but I finally noticed.
