He signed Mike Smith, acquired Duncan Keith and AA. He got lucky on Hyman as he was signed just expecting Hyman to be 30 to 40 point [edited due to brain fart] Hyman and he became a force. How many coaches did he fire in Edmonton? How many did he fire in Detroit?

Montgomery, Tocchet, Laviolette.

That's why I made the point of using 'executive. ' He makes the hires, and Y chose Draper. And again while it helps to have top of the draft players it ain't necessary to put together a strong team.

So only Heiskanen was a lottery level pick. Admittedly a very important one. So all this moaning and groaning about the Wings bad luck.... Nill showed he didn't need draft luck. Holland gets all the accolades but Nill is the better executive.

What a great game. The disallowed goal in OT by Dallas was outrageous.

Pretty inconsequential roster. Support players that are not difference makers in the larger scope of things. Who here are aw shite we really needed this guy.

This is hockey......right......

Meanwhile, Vancouver doesn't have their starter and was supposed to be doomed.

Skinner has a .887 save pct. in the playoffs and Silovs is .908. Skinner is near the bottom, Silovs in about average.

Skinner has been horrible. Our old bud Calvin in net tonight.

Lol you’re such a dick and it doesn’t surprise me a bit that you celebrate it.
