I've said this before but ill say it again, Max Boltman is the best reporter the Wings have on the scene. Great articles, great insite, and he joins the cast. LGRW 🐙 🏒 🤘
Still way too early for this but if Larkin hits 100 points and the Wings make the playoffs, that might be Hart worthy.
Send big softie Rasmussen to the AHL. Rasmussen is the biggest Pssy in the league and Yzerman is a fool for resigning that stiff.
Hamonic changed the tone of the game with his fight, you WOULD THINK Rasmussen would take notes but no he is too scared to lay big hits and drop the gloves for the team.
Rasmussen is pathetic. Get rid of this dude.
if you ****as racialize u be booted from YT
So can we just call Mazur a bust?
I grow so tired of hearing players initials, JBD, ASP, MBN, etc. Also I grow tired of still hear the stupid Jarrod Goff chants! How about chanting Dylan Larkin. I don't see Goff on the ice leading the team. Its not like the Lion won a super bowl. it's not like the Red Wings even remember, or care about the lions TRIED to do 3 yrs ago
MAXXXX
All I do is win, win, win, no matter what
Got money on my mind, I can never get enough
And every time I step up in the building everybody hands go up
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 and they stay there cuz we going to the playoffs
Props to Brad for zooming his camera out so that he looks like little head Beetlejuice for Holloween!
35:17 It would be fun to see Larkin hit 100 at least once, though. I'm sure the bunny hops per 60 would be fun on their own.
At 36:40 Max referenced Larkin speaking about fearless play and how he can learn from the rookie. I've been waiting for someone to quote this as it speaks volumes about how the team has tapped into the youngsters' energy. Plus it's impressive that a grizzled veteran can admit this publicly. Kudos to Larks for this, and to Max for referencing it.
SHould we be worried about carter bears production?
Kaspar's numbers are gonna look worse because of how snakebitten Cat was. If he had the 7-9 goals he probably should have that could easily be 5-6 assists for Kaspar and then no one would be questioning his production.
the pod was sent to us by the hockey gods !!!! ryans as major league and high iq as it gets , and when max visits weve an elite level nhl reporter ! then evan n brad are the perfect fits of hockey crazed rink rats that know what theyre talkin bout and bring the perfect modern day state of michigan attitude creating perfect pod chemistry !
I’m going to be at the LA and Anaheim game
so true about dcat , hes having a great season with only 1 goal which could be 8
what did brad think about 2:45 hahahah
Brett Hull taped toe to heel
I’m not worried about kasper or asp. Kasper has still looked good. It will come. Kinda a sophomore slump. The effort is still there and he’s improved in the face off circle giving Kane and cat more offensive zone starts. Asp is young. Just him being acceptable on the second line does wonders for that blue line. He’s been out there in all situations. This is a rookie no one expected to make the team this year and he’s playing 20-22 mins a night.
I remember an interview with Finnie sometime during camp, and he basically said that he put on like 15-20 pounds of muscle in the off season because that's just what would be needed in the NHL. And 1st round picks sometimes take years and many hard lessons to figure that out, and he just saw it as something people had to do to make it, so he did it preemptively. The kid just has that mindset.
Do y'all think MBN's adjustments are more of a physical ability thing that needs to be built up or more mental processing? Either way I think it's a good move putting him in the AHL for a lot of minutes.
Where would Danielson fit in the RW lineup?
PDO is based on 5v5 numbers Max ! 😁
Usually, when a player that gets top six minutes produces 0.1 PPG, the coach will shuffle him to the bottom six. Kasper is definitely the best option at 2c, but i know some of us are thinking he needs a little tough love (bottom six for a couple games or maybe even healthy scratch). Blashill did this all the time to young players during his tenure, particularly to mantha. Do you think sending a player a "message" is the right thing to do in this situation?
LOVE the idea for a ring of honor or team hall of fame. Kris Draper is exactly the kind of guy I thought of first for that kind of role after those mentioned. A dude that needs some recognition for sure but he isn't getting a number retired. This would be an amazing season to announce such a thing as well.
Although… I am about to say retire 33 just for the fact that he found Finnie!
Always a great time w the boys!
For the past several years, Larkin has had one principal off-season issue that he had to deal with. Ultimately that issue has been resolved wonderfully for he and his wife. Happier place possibly, or at minimum, one less major concern.
I like them having the big line they are physical and thats what they need and Elmer has great hands for a 6ft 8 guy. Rass is tough and with Riemsdyk also there they are a hard line to play against
Off to a great start so far. Would really love to see them take 3 out of 5 on this road trip. 1 down 2 to go. One rant: why is the NHL starting east coast/west coast games at 10:30 EST??
