Wow.. I wasn’t expecting this kind of movement the first day. Respectable signings all around.

Interesting that the Lions (Josh Paschal) and Red Wings (Olli Maatta) both acquired players who had cancer at 20 or less years of age. Not implying anything, it's just something rarely seen in pro athletesWHO CARES why it says paper jam when there is no paper jam?Comment

I was told you couldn't get anything in free agency.Comment

No one said that.Comment

Uhhh... yes, they did. We were frequently told free agency was a barren wasteland.Originally posted by JGSpartan View PostComment

Not by me, I frequently said you can't get a quick fix to a rebuild from it. No one they signed is a star. Role players are typically what you get. That's what they got. None of them on big contracts.Comment

Well, I'm pleased. Stars are guys who are consistent. Winning helps. We're better then we were.Trickalicious - I don't think it is fair that the division rivals get to play the Lions twice. The Lions NEVER get to play the Lions, let alone twice.Comment

All the time in this thread. It's about time the Wings did something other than saying, "This shit takes time."Originally posted by chemiclord View PostComment

Exactly what kind of talents do you think they just signed? These guys wouldn't carry a team. The wings best players will still be their homegrown guys. They are a piece of the puzzle that doesn't make sense to go get until you hit on some youth which is exactly what happened. If you think signings like this would make them winners without hitting on guys like Raymond, Seider then you're beyond clueless. You'd be pointlessly gimping your lottery chances while still not competing. Not having a high enough pick to take either Raymond or Seider or Edvinsson.Comment

I love the Ben Chiarot signing. The years and money standpoint is a little crazy but hopefully it’ll help alleviate the cheap shots Larkin and Raymond were taking last season.F#*K OHIO!!!

No shit Sherlock, nobody in this thread ever claimed that Yzerman needed to sign superstars. You need to find players other than just drafting players and waiting for them to turn into men. When the Wings won those 4 cups their main stars were homegrown, but the front office was always able to find veterans to augment them. These 5 players improve their depth immensely. They were short about 4 defenseman last year and they didn't have hardly any good defensive forwards, it made them terrible defensively. This should help. I think people who are sensitive to the criticism of the Wings didn't watch or listen to any of the games then last few years.Originally posted by JGSpartan View Post
Jad doesn't like any criticism of the Yzerplan, if you listened to him, free agency was worthless anymore.Comment

The Red Wings were listed as the #1 winners in free agency on ESPN.com. So that is good, a lot of progress for them. Time to start at least competing for the playoffs.Originally posted by jaadam4 View PostComment

We’ll see. They’re definitely making a step in the right direction but they fooled me last year. They were playing really gutty hockey for stretches in the 20/21 season. I thought they’d for sure they’d be knocking on the playoff door but last season was not good at all.Originally posted by froot loops View Post
