Does the Detroit Red Wings organization have a toughness problem? This latest video involving a top prospect won't look good, especially compared to what P.K. Subban recently said.
Do the Detroit Red Wings have a toughness problem?
Many fans seem to think so and would love to see some more grit added into their lineup that is willing to drop the gloves and defend their teammates.
One future member of the team in forward Michael Brandsegg-Nygard was taken down during a recent game while playing for Skellefteå AIK in the SHL. Immediately afterward, several opposition players essentially jumped him, as fans noticed that none of his teammates came to his defense, leaving him to fend for himself.
One popular Red Wings podcaster even was sure to note that it reminded him of recent incidents involving the current Red Wings players.
Does Red Wings general manager Steve Yzerman need to add toughness to the current roster during the summer so that fewer liberties are taken with his clu by the opposition?
Former NHL defenseman PK Subban ripped the Red Wings as "soft"
During a live broadcast of a nationally televised game between the Red Wings and Vegas Golden Knights, former NHL defenseman and current analyst PK Subban blasted the Red Wings as "soft".
He targeted defenseman Justin Holl in particular, laying the blame at general manager Steve Yzerman's feet for signing him.
Justin Holl has been soft since he's been in the league. So, that's on Stevie Y, that's on Stevie Y, for signing him. He was soft in Toronto, soft still.
