Detroit Red Wings and Anaheim Ducks having similar internal issues

We talk a little Detroit Red Wings too.  There may not be as many choices as years past, but I am curious who other writers look forward to seeing on our team when our respected teams compete with each other.

Bob Heyrman:  I urge you to be patient.  Although there may not be as many superstar caliber players as in years’ past this Detroit Red Wings club still has a few diamonds buried in the rough.  Who are you most looking forward to watching tonight on the Detroit Red Wings and why?

Ciara Durant:  Dylan Larkin without question. The kid can play a great game of hockey! The guy has an incredible passion for the game, and he is a rare talent. His youthful spirit has done a lot for the Red Wings organization, and he’s making a great case for himself to become the next captain. He is not only lethal offensively, but he is responsible defensively. He is, all around, the kind of player all NHL organizations covet.

I have to be honest; when the Ducks aren’t playing, I will tune into the Red Wings games just to watch him play. So, I’m really excited to see him in action. He is the future of the Detroit Red Wings organization, plain and simple.

I’m also looking forward to watching Tyler Bertuzzi. First of all, his last name is really fun to say, and secondly, he brings so much energy to the ice, and I think it’s going to be a challenge for the Anaheim Ducks to match that. All in all, I’m just looking forward to watching Bertuzzi, Larkin, and Nyquist together. They’re going to do their best to expose the Anaheim Ducks issues, and it will be a good test for the entire team. Plus, it could help Randy Carlyle rethink a few things.
