Why not Biuium ?
Hat trick for Shine tonight.
My problem with Hamilton is why has he been on so many teams? Is he a locker room cancer?
I’m for more offense, but I would rather get a top six forward. Then, you are also injecting a top six player into your bottom six. That is how I would address that side. Adding D would be my move to get more solid depth.
Can they trade Compher and a pick for Hamilton so they are only taking on another 4 mil a year?
Seeing Raymond and Pettersson together at the Olympic's and them having great chemistry…im now on board with getting Elias Pettersson from Vancouver , change of scenery might do Pettersson wonders and the Wings would benefit
Fantastic episode. Always a pleasure to hear from Max and Prashanth!
Very interesting analysis, I was getting a little worried about the Wings just before the break, but it's been a very decent season. The Seider/Edvinsson pairing is really looking good into the future, Gibson has been ridiculous too. I hope they earn a playoff spot.
We should trade for maatta
Love these roundtable episodes! LGRW
