The Detroit Red Wings have officially been eliminated from playoff contention—for the 9th straight season. A tough pill to swallow for Hockeytown, but eyes are now turning toward the future and what comes next.
Top prospects Axel Sandin Pellikka and Michael Brandsegg-Nygård have been knocked out of the SHL playoffs and are now making their way to North America to join the Grand Rapids Griffins in their playoff push. Could they be key pieces for the Wings moving forward?
We also take a hard look at Steve Yzerman’s past UFA signings—who panned out, who didn’t, and who else was available that Detroit could’ve pursued. Is it time to change the approach heading into another pivotal offseason?

Hope they get ASP over there for a few games before sending him to GR for a playoff run.
boys Dylan Strome was FREE AGENT UNRESTRICTED from Chicago. do your homework. they wings CLEARLY could have locked him up on a 4×4.5 no problem. we chose Kubalik and Copp instead. in this case the wings should have just signed all 3 and had no need to sign Compher because we would have a 2nd line center in Stombe and 3rd line center in Copp
Saw the clip of Holland and it made me regret everything bad I said about him that day and just thought he was being a lazy pos. Here we are 9 years later and still no playoffs. The only bad signing was Holl and it wasnt even steves fault he decided to be worse here than he was in toronto
Holl just sucks and that’s that. I agree with both we are missing two top 6 forwards and two top 4 dmen away from being a cup contender and that’s more than likely from the prospects and we won’t know till probably closer to their primes like ASP 3-4 NHL seasons in
If the red wings pick anywhere outside the top 10 they should consider trading it for Isaac Howard he’s better than anything 11 and up
Ray is 23 and Mo is 24. But still young. I think Newsy wanted to expand the leadership group to include them without alienating the older players. I know they didn't want a letter to determine who is a leader, but I think the rotating thing was counterproductive.
