In reply to Gregory Sloup. That's Yzerman's fault. Copp was never a legit 2C. Veleno was drafted by Holland and is a 4th liner at best. Yzerman keeps Veleno around even though he sucks. Yes upgrades are needed but each time Yzerman seems to think signing a bunch of UFA's is the solution. How about promoting some of these great prospects he's always bragging about? Oh yeah they can't make the Red Wings until they're 23. Over ripen. Not ready. Needs more seasoning. Something, something. Apparently the Red Wings are cooking chickens and not trying to win hockey games. Needs another year in Grand Rapids! Yes Steve. No one dares to question the almighty Steve Yzerman! I'll just wait for know it all Darren McCarty to tell me what to think. I'm a Red Wings fan. I'm just supposed to be thankful Yzerman is the GM, eat a $hit sandwich and never complain about it. Yay Yzerplan!

Lalonde’s team went 6-12-2 in the last 20 games during a push to make the playoffs.
Coop was paid $5 million dollars to be a a #2 center; he has 33 points and has been dropped to the 3rd line.
Veleno has 1 point over the past 5 weeks.
Upgrades are needed all around

I feel bad for Copp.

Red Wings Players are dropping like flies.

Red Wings are running on fumes.

At least they’ll have a long summer to heal up for next season.

They can watch the Isles and Pens both get swept in the first round.
