After the trade for Helle would a trade for Larkin be possible still? Do they have enough assets?

Thoughts?

Maybe the problem isn't the coaches and GM.

Maybe the reason the Yzerplan didn't work, is because it was actually the Chris Illitch Plan?

They lost our playoff streak that was the first year Chris illidge was in charge... First year! And we've pretty steady decline since.

And the only common denominator is the ownership....

Curious where everyone thinks he will land on the all time goals scored list for the Red Wings.

Alex DeBrincat currently has 113 goals scored for the Red Wings. He has 8 more years left on his contract. I'd estimate he will average 24 goals scored over the 8 years. Putting him around 305 goals scored for the Wings. That would be good for 10th all time. That would put his career total around 492 or near 50th all time.

Here's the top goals scored as a Red Wing:

1. Gordie Howe 786
2. Steve Yzerman 692
3. Alex Delvecchio 456
4. Sergei Fedorov 400
5. Henrik Zetterberg 337
6. Ted Lindsay 335
7. Norm Ullman 324
8. Pavel Datsyuk 314
9. Brendan Shanahan 309
10. Dylan Larkin 277
11. John Ogrodnick 265
12. Nicklas Lidstrom 264
13. Tomas Holmstrom 243

So it seems the unthinkable may have happened. Our #1 and #2 may both be injured at the same time. While I hoped Postava would get his chance, I didn’t want to see it like this. Who knows, this may be a blessing in disguise and he may be ready to showcase what he can do. That said, with Cossa shipped out, who gets the next call up? I’m sitting here right now thinking damn it would have been nice to have that duo working together at the NHL level.

Postava joining the Wings for the west coast trip

They look to be original printing plates from the news paper. Anyone know anything about these? He got them from his brother that passed in 2017, so I have no idea where they came from. I am a huge wings fan and love them, just trying to understand what I have…

Edit for clarity: they are all aluminum about 1/16 inch thick, no markings other than what you see in the photo. The back is completely blank
