commentary...

the Red Wings' roster,right now,looks a little thin,but honestly,with the best general manager(Ken Holland),and front office,in NHL,and about $20 million,in salary cap space,if you honestly think that the Red Wings are not going to be competitive this upcoming season,have your laughs now,folks,because the Red Wings,i hate to remind you,have made the Stanley Cup playoffs,for 21 straight years,or close to that... it is only July,not September,or early October(depending on a new collective bargaining agreement being in line-the current one expires September 15th,by the way)... i may be moaning in virtual pain,come opening night,of 2012-2013 NHL season,because Red Wings may not be the team that i expect,but honestly,i believe that Holland,and the front office,will plug the holes in the Wings' lineup for the season... so pundits,keep laughing,and the Red Wings will make all of you choke on the laughter,i guarantee,come next April,when they make the Stanley Cup playoffs,and maybe next June,too...
