A few days ago we posted a wishful little ditty about just how we can keep all three. My thinking? That the lure of multiple Cups would keep the current Wing core intact for next season.
That’s hope talking right there. The voice of a fan. Bruce MacLeod has a bit of reality for us all.
Marian Hossa. Henrik Zetterberg. Johan Franzen. Jiri Hudler. Mikael Samuelsson. Ty Conklin. Tomas Kopecky. I don’t want to see any of them leave the Red Wings next season.
But all of them are free agents. And it’s difficult to see where even one of them is going to make less money than they make this season. Many, however, are going to make significantly more than they’re making now.
I still think that Tick Tock may just pull this thing off. I believe he can do it. But MacLeod has great advice for all of us.
I’m going to keep numbers away from my hockey world because numbers aren’t good right now. I’m going to watch the current Red Wings and just enjoy how good of a team that they are, how remarkable it is that all of this talent fit under the salary cap.
In other words, enjoy this team for what it is. This year.
Ok. I’ll give it a shot. I’ll let you know how that goes.

About Abel to Yzerman
Welcome to Abel to Yzerman, a Red Wing blog since 1977. No other site on the internet has better-researched, fact-laden and better prepared discussions than A2Y. Re-phrase: we do little research, find facts and stats highly overrated and claim little to no preparation. There are 19 readers of A2Y. No more, no less. All of them, except maybe one, are juvenile in nature. Reminding them of that in the comment section will only encourage them to prove that. Your suggestions and critiques are welcome: .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)
