Howdy. I’m a dad, husband, and English teacher. I use this account for personal interests and hobbies including: NHL hockey, Age of Sigmar, weather, and books.

@LGRWProspects To be fair, Yzerman also doesn’t need to be in a rush.

@JFreshHockey Larkin loves Chiarot, helped recruit Copp and Compher, and had a lot of issues with Walman. I don’t think he’s a great talent evaluator lol.

@JFreshHockey Carter Bear and/or Michael Brandsegg-Nygard.

[Dustin Morley @DustinMorley]

@TopDownHockey Carter Bear and MBN interest me as a Wings fan.

@blashdril I think it makes sense if they keep divisional playoffs. Have the 4 and 5 do a play in. Then two rounds of divisional playoffs.

I’d prefer just going back to 1-8 though.

[Dustin Morley @DustinMorley]

@cotsonika Also started with Chiarot blowing a clear.

[Dustin Morley @DustinMorley]

@wyshynski I'd argue Celebrini is right there as well. Totally changed things for San Jose.

[Dustin Morley @DustinMorley]

@ADiMarco25 Seeing as how Yzerman balked at prices for Hughes due to the lack of term, I don't see how Risto is any different, especially if Philly wants a premium return.

@chrismpeters The announcer is great.

[Dustin Morley @DustinMorley]

@Braylon_Breeze For the NHL's popularity, I think ESPN having the A package and one of NBC or Fox having the B package would be best. TNT has had solid productions, but just hasn't been able to draw fans the same way the bigger networks can.

@Hockey_Robinson Apart from coaches thinking he was lazy, health was always what held him back. Loved him in Detroit and happy to see him healthy and thriving.

[Dustin Morley @DustinMorley]

@jonmorosi @NHL No one. That's why Fedorov is a legend.

[Dustin Morley @DustinMorley]

@LarsThorsell Or: trade for skilled, underused Swedes. Who could the Wings target?

[Dustin Morley @DustinMorley]

@By_Odins_Beard_ I think Edvinsson is better than Buium at this point though. Pretty safe to say Ed will be a top pairing guy. Buium has a ways to go. Rossi has shown a lot more, but teams don’t like small centers. I think there’s pretty equal value in Ed/Danielson to Buium/Rossi.

[Dustin Morley @DustinMorley]

@seth_walters1 Mazur isn’t a first round pick and his injury status/history makes him not worth anything in trades IMO. Still love the player and hope he is a middle six guy for Detroit at some point.

[Dustin Morley @DustinMorley]

@nrs82 No arguing from me Hughes is the second best. But Hughes replacing Ed on the top pair and replacing Mo on the power play isn’t a massive improvement when those things are already good. Anyway, it doesn’t matter now.

[Dustin Morley @DustinMorley]

@nrs82 I don’t. I think it would’ve been an upgrade but a lateral move. We already have an elite top pair and power play. We needed the ability to have 3 top defenders for it to make sense. I’m bummed, but don’t think the package would’ve made sense.

[Dustin Morley @DustinMorley]

@nrs82 I don’t think Yzerman was including Edvinsson.

[Dustin Morley @DustinMorley]

@nrs82 @m_bultman I could be wrong, but I think Vancouver valued Edvinsson over Buium and Danielson over Rossi.
