The Forecast Is Not Bright

Former Wings beat writer Keith Gave via Twitter,

It worked in 98 and 08 because of the players. Check this team's roster: Below average to average, at best. With Z on his last legs, they have no difference-makers. Not one. Rebuild under way will take years. Stanley Cup champs again? Maybe '28.

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.
