Well, after one game the Red Wings looked surprisingly well, especially Mike Green, and the young guy Frk I have been dying to see on the big club. I think the addition of Trevor Daley to our D was good, he knows how to win, and should help the young D steady their play. They looked so bad last year, and are a salary cap mess with horrible contracts, but they looked better to start the season than I dared hope. Might have been a fluke, but it gives me a spark of hope. Mantha, Larkin, and Frk could be something. I hope they can solve their impasse with Athanasiou, but if it means paying too much, don't do it. Ken Holland is bad about that.
And in different news, former Red Wing Juri Hudler got in trouble on an international flight for demanding cocaine and pissing on a serving cart. That is really sad, I hope he gets the help he needs.
