@GrindLinePod@younger1340 Why rush? Maybe bc this team has missed the playoffs for a decade and our captain has abandoned ship. Would be nice to not sit on our hands while other teams aggressively get talent.
@LarsThorsell That’s definitely a take. Heaven forbid USA celebrate winning their opening World Cup match, on home soil, and doing so in decided fashion. How dare we be excited and happy…
The USMNT scored as many goals in the first half of their 2026 World Cup opening match against Paraguay (3) as they did in the ENTIRE 2022 World Cup campaign (3).
What a start 🇺🇸👏🔥
I completely take back what I said about Larkin btw.
Requesting a trade after over a decade of your teams incompetence is fine.
Handicapping that team to three destinations is embarrassing.
This isn't me defending Yzerman, he's terrible. But let Larkin rot in Detroit now.
@BarstoolChief I agree that’s what should be done. But Yzerman can’t be the one who does it. Would be ludicrous to allow him to rebuild HIS own rebuild.
@HkytownHang Yzerman has botched this rebuild. Now having to trade Larkin will result in needing to do another retool/rebuild because no one in the system can replace Larkin. It would be beyond foolish to allow Yzerman a second chance to rebuild. I agree it’s gotta end.
@HkytownHang Futures. You can’t replace Larkin and any attempt to do so would just further cement Detroit in 6th place or worse in the Atlantic. At least futures and prospects gives them a chance to get players that fit the seider and Raymond timeline
@BradKrysko I slightly disagree, Detroit has been stuck in this nowhere mushy middle land. Larkin demanding a trade at least shows the clear direction Detroit needs to go. Now if management will actually go in the direction is the question. Sucky part is this rebuild definitely isn’t over.
The ass kicking SVG put on the field yesterday should be what we are talking about. I don’t know if he’s the best road racer in NASCAR history but he’s the best in this era. Stop with the … “Will he make the playoff / chase” bullshit. This narrative deters the star status he deserves.
Oh my gosh, so many geniuses in the replies. You all knew what was going to happen and you're not surprised or impressed. I'm shocked more of you are not crew chiefs. You had it the whole way!
