UPDATE: Mike Babcock informs Red Wings he will not return as head coach. Headed to Toronto. ‪#‎RedWings‬

bring on the blashill
hope he has a good time in toronto

I'm more then happy with Blashill.

Not to mention we can start attracting top free agents again.

Blashill will be great. My major concern about Babs leaving is who he's going to take with him. The PK looked amazing and Holland ain't letting Glenny go, but who's to say Miller doesn't walk and join Babs like he did when he was on Anaheim?

Although, you know what I'd love if Babs takes the goalie coach? Dominik Hasek teaching Mrazek, his biggest fan.

Bedard has been here to long, I don't see him leaving unless Toronto plans to overpay assistant coaches also.

Good read on FSN Detroit.

Holland seen this coming a year ago, uppd Blashills salary to keep him happy and denied NHL teams the opportunity to talk to him the past 2 years.

Yeah, watching his press conference/interview he said he's going to talk to Blashill and MAYBE interview 1-2 more people.
Very cordial about it, saying Babcock is still welcome in the wings press box whenever he wants, same deal with Bowman and anyone else who left the organization because they helped build the team.

Expect announcement Dylan Larkin leaving @umichhockey for Detroit Red Wings and will be available for Grand Rapids series vs Utica.

UPDATE: The Detroit Red Wings today announced that they have agreed to terms with center Dylan Larkin on a three-year entry-level contract.
Larkin has also signed an amateur tryout with the AHL’s Grand Rapids Griffins and will be available this weekend.

Wow fuck off...

Be gentle on our Utica
