Detroit — If you listen to many NHL teams, they’ll have the same criticisms, or more specifically, the same needs.
Brother, they’d love to have a franchise-type center, capable of producing offense and neutralizing the other team defensively.
Or, a gifted, goal-scoring winger. Or a franchise altering No. 1 type of defenseman, who judging from the last couple of seasons around the NHL, must be paid a premium (in contracts, and, or, trades) to acquire.
