Goalies are Voodoo. I'm a bit worried Stevie picked the wrong goalie. Wallstedt looked great in the WJC for Team Sweden. Cossa couldn't win the starting job for Team Canada. Please don't be the next Jimmy Howard! 😲

We won't see him in Detroit for at least 3 years. I agree. Let him develop.

Jimmy Howard was the Red Wings goalie in our last playoff series win. 2013 vs the Ducks. Then came the Brendan Smith Chicago series. I'll always remember when Z made Toews completely snap and have a meltdown. 🤣

Geez. A 19 center who scored 100 points in the QMJHL as a 19 year old and was an alternate on Team Canada and will definitely make the team this winter as a mainstay is Garbage?

Alright buddy.

laugh Wow dude imagine scoring 100 points in the Q at age 19 Mantha scored 120 points in the Q at age 19 it's not hard to score 100 points in that league.

Sorry but Kidney and Ylonen are nowhere near getting you Sebastian Cossa he basically cost us a 1st+2nd+4th round pick to move down to acquire him. Sorry but Kidney and Ylonen don't have that kind of value.

Is the elephant in the room that this trade is a complete joke?
Sure, Kidney is pretty good at hockey, but Detroit had plenty of opportunities to pick him and chose not to. Detroit have nearly 50 skater prospects in the system, many of whom will be better than him at the end of their careers.

I dont get the joke... you are knocking kidneys value and ability based on similiar production to that of a guy who was easily one of detroits top players for years... say what you will about your opinions on the trade, but maybe work on your slandering of players abit more 😂

It is a joke, Basically anyone can score 100 points in the QHL What's so special about Kidney doing it? Doesn't mean it will translate well in the NHL or even the AHL. Most players that play in the Q can't score half as much by the time they get to the AHL or NHL. let's see kidney score 100 points with Laval not going to happen so it means absolutely nothing.

Breaking new.. its harder to score in the nhl as opposed to the chl. Virtually the same number of 100 point getters this season in the ohl too, so your knock on the Q is just dumb. That aside you tried to make your point by comparing mantha to kidney based on chl production as if it was a knock on value, again mantha being a good player kinda negated the point you tried to make.
