The Wings desperately need someone who will respond to the the yearly “Let’s go kill Larkin” moment.

I don’t know. I think Steve’s time is coming to an end. Red wings arent close. Probably better off tanking for the next star? I really think steve is lost. So if someone can tell me what steve is doing then thanks. Steve was always kinda spaced out as a player. Or distant and awkward. He Went to tampa and did good. Now he seems distant from the media and spaced out. And he is old now. Alzheimer’s is not a joke. I miss mike illitch. Chris has won nothing. I have a story i want to share but i wont unless someone asks
Trouba is 30yo.
Most of the Norris trophy winners in the previous 30 years were 30+ years old.
In addition… almost every one of the guys that won it while in their 20’s… played good hockey into their 30’s.
.
Trouba is not ELITE…Not even close. He’s a wild, penalty creator, head hunting, fearsome, defenseman, who will protect Larkin, et al. Past his Prime. 2yrs/ $6M tops for me. Just in time for Pellinka to report for duty for the Wings.
Kane - 1Year , $4M good signing. May allow enough $$$ to re-sign the Ghost. We’ll see. Still doubt they can re-sign Ghost & ADD Trouba, as Yzerman says, “Can’t sign Everybody !!”…
Not a huge fan of ghost. Hes great on the PK. But he disappears vs top of the league talent.
Trouba isnt elite no. But better than anything the wings have not named seider.
Hes a dirty player no doubt but everyone needs a goon on the blue line.

I’m not a fan of Trouba at all, but you are dead nuts on about the Wings needing a true goon.
We need someone to pay a price when they try to kill Larkin.
Sounds like Stamkos to Nashville. F ucking Nashville. Sure hope Yzerman has a plan
Perron and Gostisbehere will both not return to the Wings next year
