Hi folks. My name is J.J. and I’m the managing editor of Winging It In Motown, a Detroit Red Wings blog for Detroit Red Wings fans. I’m also a Red Wings fan (which apparently isn’t a prerequisite to writing a Wings blog, but I feel it kind of helps when you’re running a site designed for the fan experience). I want to take a minute to outright say that I back anything that has been published on this site in regards to this year’s draft and any of our writers’ opinions.
I also want to say that I personally agree that the Red Wings are so far not doing a great job in draft week with asset management and that they took a big risk going for a guy with questionable even-strength scoring who needs to work on his skating at 9th overall.
