Ready to get some whiplash from contradictory view points.
From Friedman 32 thoughts written version.
4. Dylan Larkin had a good line about what fellow All-Stars were saying to him in Florida: “Guys are asking why it hasn’t got done yet, stuff like that.” That tells you what you need to know, that his peers believe Larkin when he says he wants to be a Red Wing.
5. We’ll see if Bo Horvat’s eight-year, $68M extension moves the line for Larkin and Steve Yzerman. Generally, Yzerman digs a trench and doesn’t go much further, although Nikita Kucherov pushed Tampa Bay’s ceiling to $9.5M two months before Yzerman resigned from the team. I don’t believe that’s where we’re going here, but what it shows is that sometimes, things can move.
Larkin’s best attribute is that, as a centre, he’s difficult to replace. Top-line centres are very hard to find. My guess is this ends somewhere in the eights. If Yzerman believed he couldn’t sign Larkin, he would have traded him last summer before the captain’s no-trade clause kicked-in.
I can now see why Chicago finally got frustrated with Kubalik and decided to let him walk.
So, keep Bert. He’s a heart and soul player.
Trade Larkin to the Canes for Jarvis, Drury and a first. Larkin would be elite on that team as opposed to be very-good on our team. But my view of Larkin is he is a great supportive player and a decent main player. Ask Larkin to bring the Cup back to Detroit when it is his turn with it.
Lend Vrana to a team in the SHL to get his mind and body straight. When he is ready, tell him he is a first line sniper with Bedard.
Wife and I are just now getting over a stomach bug that had it coming out both ends so frequently that the girls had to stay at her parents house. Cut to this morning and one of them sits up in our bed and covers us in projectile vomit, it’s gonna be a long week.
Lots of bizarre takes last night in the game thread – I can only come to the conclusion that a lot of people don’t watch this team (or hockey in general) very often if you are leaving that game saying we “played well”.
This idea that we are just unlucky or screwed up a few times being the reason we lost is just not true. This team did not look like they just came off a 10 day break. They looked sloppy, tired, and just overall unorganized. The powerplay continues to be one of the biggest crutches of this team and change needs to happen there.
Maybe I am alone on this but I’m excited for the deadline to see who gets moved.
