Really starting to like the Steve does things

Walman was our #2 defenseman and NOBODY was taking about something happened to Walman's motivation after the first of the year. Here are a couple of abnormalities that I recognized: -He gave up on a 2 on 1 near the end of a period goal scored. I commented to a friend, why was he on his heels coasting? -He toe picked and went head first into his own net and was never the same. -He had only 1 assist in his last 31 games! -He only had 42 hits in 63 games for a defenseman is not normal. But he had a respectable amount of blocked shots. Assumption: He was playing hurt and perhaps management felt he could play through it or there was tension there and the two parties expectations were far apart. Also wth happened with Klim Kostin $2 million player who didn't suit up vs Florida got our ass kicked and Klim was given away. *Jury is out on Steve not Stevie anymore. He drafts well and his free agency acquisitions favoring veterans over over ripe players in the minors is very suspect. -

Traded the wrong $3.4M contract and defenseman!

I was not happy about trading Walman. But atleast trade him to a team where we could get something for him. Let alone adding a second round pick!!!

Not happy with a few YSER PLAN moves going back to last year,,at least 2 bad D men signings last year, Stevie is getting alot of OUT OF JAIL cards because is name is YSERMAN,, over paid on a couple of other contracts,,,ie. Copp..I hope that the heat is on because this is NUTS !!!!

Kane don't like Wallman and demanded the trade if he was to stay a redwing.

Future considerations could mean anything. I realize it generally means that it amounts to nothing, but do we know? SY is not stupid. There's more to this trade that hasn't been divulged yet. That would be my guess anyway.

Maybe SJ wanted the Wings to cover some salary and SY was willing to throw a 2nd rounder to keep $3.4M.

Best Take Brad's ever had. Absolutely love Brad though he pisses me off w/ opinion on Berggren. So Glad everyone is onboard w/ the waivers thing. Now this question needs to be brought up to SY by local media (That would be you right Bultman?) Thanks

Guarantee Walman gets picked up on Waivers. Nobody is going to tell you, so no way of knowing unless you actually put the guy on WAIVERS! LIke WTF; Either 1: SY IS F****** IDIOT 2: Undisclosed injury/medical condition 3: Backroom dealings

You never know if someone will be claimed on waivers until you actually put them on waivers! Another team isn't going to be like yeah... we won't take him Of course, not because someone might be an IDIOT LIKE SY and give you a 2nd! But if you put the guy on waivers now 31 teams! Have to pass on the Guy. Absolutely Batshit Crazy Nonsense... Fucking Pissed. Only Explanation is if Walman has an undisclosed injury/medical condition

This team is doomed. Larkin is made of glass. Raymond and Seider are going to demand super star pay and they dont deserve it yet. Copp, Petry, Holl.. Yzerman isn't a god. He obviously got lucky in Tampa with good picks and its entirely possible hes not the best GM that we thought he was.

Plz sum1... explain giving up a 2nd rounder for nothing make sense... Walman was THAT awful??? 🤔?

He overpaid to get the deal done in time. Maybe who could of waited it out but unfortunately the draft and free agency are almost here.

Andrew Gibson was a second round pick last draft and if Jake Walman had no value that you add a second round pick. That’s means the other defenseman can’t be traded unless you give up more then a second round pick and Andrew Copp also likely won’t be traded. David Perron better not be signed for 3 million. Yzerman will be fired when they miss the playoffs again because of is terrible free agent signings.

Supposedly from what ive heard, Wallman lost trust in Newsys system and thats why he was healthy scratched, cant say I blame him, Newsy scheme is garbage, this Yzerman and Newsy relationship is reminding me a lot of Bob Quinns and Matt Patricias relationship and if its going down that path, were screwed

I think, he's making cap space for Gus Bus, the Cap hit is even , I love Gus Bus, but your getting one hell of a goalie, I'm going to miss him Denny from Minnesota

Non NHL GMs. Having a non GM NHL conversation.

Brad and Prashanth. Boys. Grow up. The value is what it was. Is the argument yzerman got fleeced?

They even put Vrana on waivers…

I will preface this by saying I don't get this move but I am waiting to see how it all plays out. That out of the way one thing I will defend Stevie on is I think we are putting a bit too much into the 2nd round pick given to SJ. If you think about it it was essentially the same as putting Walman on waivers. SJ clearly wanted a 2nd so DET swapped equal prospects with NSH so that's a wash and got a 2nd round pick so they could give it to SJ without giving them their own 2nd so really all we did was swap prospects and give Walman to SJ for free, now I do think we probably could have gotten at least a pick for Walman but I think we are putting to much into that 2nd round pick.

All of these fans with their blind faith for Yzerman and chastizing anyone who questions Yzerman's moves, are ridiculous. Maybe thisnleads to a better move, but if this just a move to free up a roster spot, then this is a terrible trade.

3-4 years ago saw 12k tix sold...last year we were selling out. We are getting close. Johannson needs a spot and has better skills

The Yzerplan is a joke. This screams incompetence.

It's a tough pill to swallow as a fan of this team watching us give away 2 assets in Gibson and Walman to clear cap space when 25% of our cap is being used on our 5 worst players. Stevie's signings in 2022 and 2023 are having consequences now.

Giving San Jose Walman and a second round pick for nothing looks crazy. Unless Yzerman has starting taking stupid pills, I have to believe there's more to this than meets the eye. Of course, I still can't wrap my head around the Holl and Petry signings.

One of the things I was happy about this offseason was that Steve didn't have a ton of money to go and get more Andrew Copps or Ben Chairots. Which would mean we are going to see some of these draft picks that we have accumulated for being one of the worst teams in the league over the last decade. So much for that. Now he can sign more meh to below meh free agents, and keep guys like Mazur in Grand Rapids, or <gasp> resign Ghost. Even lower expectations for this upcoming season. I also love, all of the Yzerfans tripping over themselves to throw Jake under the bus.

sent the wrong guy. loved wally as a human and as a player. battled last injury last year after facing insane deployment. hate the move. better be something big coming edit: u also dont trade good players for nothing

My prediction is they moved out one Gibson to help make room for another.

Not shocked or upset to lose Walman, just really don't understand how he had negative value. Must be more to the story there.

I dont get why everyone is so up set he had 39 points in 106 game's hes definitely replaceable, I think this fan base over values him

Chiarot is a worse Defender than Walman he also makes 4 mil + he should have been traded .

Thanks guys!

It's good we didn't do what Iyer wanted last year and signed him for 8 years lol.

Yzerman could trade Larkin for future considerations and the Yzerbots would say “they cleared cap space”. You know you’re allowed to criticize bad trades right? There were other moves to be made then to give away your 2nd-3rd best D for nothing and attach a pick onto him.

Following the team closely its pretty clear they have very high expectations for Edvinsson and Johansson. It is definitely surprising Walman was cap dumped even though he was pretty bad for long streches last year. Yzerman essentially dumped Walman for Andrew Gibson so not really a big loss.

Watch Stevie get Trouba.

Didn't see this one coming at all. However, perhaps we should not be surprised as it is Stevie. It could be that it is a three party deal that is split over several days because important dates during a LONG season are as it is now! The third part is either during draft day or 7/1. Could be for Saros (which I don't think is likely), could just as well be someone else of greater value on the open market (more likely for RW). Here, SJ is the recipient of a contract and a bonus to use their cap days before everything opens (the Wallman deal becomes more logical now). So, I don't think it's a pure cap dump at all for some of the RFA/UFA's we have to deal with. Wallman does not fit into such a role as his cap is too low. The NHL has approved the trade, so they know the reason why the deal looks the way it does "today". in conclusion, I don't think it's about personal chemistry when it comes to Wallman either, the basis is too small to even start speculating there.

Man nothing screams more “I watch hockey through Microsoft Excel” than every single thing Prashanth said during this podcast.

The hockey IQ is so low on this podcast

Lets go spend 6milly on another 3rd line center 😂

Shayne Gostisbehere is awful defensively so that's a hard no for me

Gibson stinks

Could be making room for either Jacob Trouba or Rasmus Andersson.. SY better not give away the 1st rounder for Trouba, As for Gibson, in the second round SY passed on forwards Lind, Rehkopf, Sawchyn, and Heidt. Add the head scratcher selecting Brady Cleveland over these forwards too. I did not make sense.

I truly hope I am wrong but the Walman move gives the impression of a player about to enter the Player Assistance Program. If that is the case and Walman would not have been on your roster anyway, the net result is you moved out $3.4M and traded one prospect for another. The second round pick came in and went out in the same day.

Wings will miss playoffs again.

If they could have got a return for him, they would have. I have no idea why most of the league doesn’t want him. It doesn’t make sense.

The Yzerstans doing the craziest mental gymnastics to defend this move. This is the horrible asset management. I do think Brad is overly negative and critical at times, but agreed. Moving a 2nd made no sense. Like you said, throw him on waivers first before attaching a 2nd to get rid of his contract (which isn't even that bad). I'm also coping that maybe future considerations is San Jose claims Holl if we throw him on waivers as a way of getting around his NTC is SJ is on his no trade list

In my opinion they traded the second with a background agreement that San Jose gives them their pick at 14 if the board has someone he has his eyes on That’s if I’m not mistaken San Jose also has 14th pick right?

I'll be mad If they now extend Ghost for more than Wallman had, the guy is terrible defender when it's 5 on 5.
