Quick Hits: The Ralph Krueger Edition

In Red Wings Land

Off-Season Game Plan: Detroit Red Wings - Article - TSN
Scott Cullen takes a look at the Red Wings and their needs. It pretty well matches with much of the stuff we've been talking about, but it's nice to hear it from an outside source.

The only problem is in Cullen’s idea for the Wings to go after Tommy Wingels and Kevin Klein in the offseason. I mean, it’s not out of the question, but it would be weird to add two meh guys to a meh squad.

Ralph Krueger turned down two NHL jobs, happy at Southampton | Puck Daddy
Ralph Krueger is one of the guys I'd immediately fire Jeff Blashill in order to hire, so I guess I'm happy that he's nobody else's NHL coach as long as he's not being ours. No real good reason for him to leave a good gig in soccer to come to the NHL where coach salaries aren't nearly as lucrative.
