So.... one of our top defensive prospects (coincidently from Michigan), for a bottom 6 forward with middle 6 potential.

Don't mind acquiring Perlini but seems a high price to pay.

Seen one fan suggest Detroit didn't plan on signing Regula which seems insane to me considering how good he's been in the CHL.

Apparently, his dad was a dentist for the Red Wings.

I don't mind the trade itself. I suspect fans who suggest Regula wasn't going to get resigned just speculation. Maybe with recent defenseman who were drafted Yzerman saw Regula not as highly as some fans thought.

Not sure what to make of this (this was in July)

Regula was looked as 22nd best prospect in org. with 8th D men in front of him.

Mount Rushmore of Detroit Sports circa mid-1960s. Agree? Gordie here.

I thought he played well. Did some old guy come off the ir?

Edit: Just remembered we need room for Perlini.

Polish-Hammer · Oct 30, 2019

Correct.

Erne came off IR, and Perlini was acquired.

Why Svech and Smith got sent down.

McIlrath waived.

Which is a shame cause he was one of the few solid D during this awful stretch of hockey.

Don't let the gray hair fool you. Gordie Howe outplayed kids half his age as a Hartford Whaler!

Red and White Authority Podcast

If you can stomach Art Regner, he has some interesting Red Wing guests.

Seider, Kronwall, Holland, Larsson all interviewed since start of the season.

Seems to have an inconsistent release schedule to boot.
