Mornin', DC! Look, DET has gaps upon gaps to fill for sure. I can't say we're set at any position. I would opine that G & D are glaringly void of talent. But definitely need C help as well.

The Captain is in an unenviable position; fix a sinking ship with band-aids & hope she floats. Thankfully we have some cap space this year, and some "not so good" contracts coming off the books next year. Rossi is an interesting choice, saw scouting reports that his IQ is off the charts, Drysedale is a stud and just about NHL-ready as any other Top 6 (or so...) draftee. Going to be interesting; I've got my popcorn ready for the draft, COVID impacts on Training Camp, and season!!!

Just beware that Kris Draper once said Denis Cholowski had an elite Hockey IQ. Yeah. Maybe in the BC junior league. But not in the NHL! 🤮

we need to make a safe pick at #4

There is no safe pick. Ever. We have good defensive prospects, forward prospects. We need a great goalie, one has come along. Yzerman needs to seize the day.

That one pick Islanders took at #1 was a safe pick. Nobody even remembers his name. ASKAROV and find out.

Nah, he do. You just a hater. In a year or so I'll be asking you how those words taste

No thank you to drafting Askarov with the 4th or even in the top 10. Let someone else take the gamble on him. Plenty of young more proven goalies will be available due to the expansion draft and they won't cost a top pick to get.

If the Wings were loaded with top young talent at forward and defense (for example like Carolina), then sure take the gamble on the goalie...but we all know the Wings are far from loaded at either forward or defense.

Nah. ASKAROV and find out. All day every day. Let some other team take a gamble on the other kids.
