00:03text and calls on both from the nothing ever happens update desk larkin's list is not expanding
00:10it's three teams still confirmed lane st james of the free press and the pistons made a trade but
00:15not really anything significant more of a drip drip drip yep on a hot summer day we're waiting
00:21for that hose to get turned on our question is which of these teams are more annoying to you
00:26more frustrating is causing you to be to be impatient as we wait 248-539-9797 let's start
00:34with mason you're on 97.1 hey guys uh to answer your question i would think that it's definitely
00:40the red wings and the reason i'm starting to get so frustrated here is with uh steve eichmann
00:46is because early on he was so reluctant to ever trade any of his prospects um he's been reluctant
00:54to make trades and then all the reporting was out that he never wanted to give out term and then
01:00there's even been some reports lately that he wouldn't want to pay market price for to bring it
01:05so i sit here and i think like what do you want to do because he always says he doesn't
01:11want to do all
01:11these things that you have to do when you're trying to get good players yeah and he doesn't want to
01:16do
01:16any of them so i'm just so confused as to what he actually wants to do that's going to get
01:21this team
01:21to a stanley cobb yeah i'm a little confused by hey we're keeping dylan no promises on a trade he's
01:27got five years left on his contract okay then why is this the only move you haven't really made any
01:32moves the offseason to push the team forward then if your contention is dylan will be here
01:36until i damn well trade him then build a hockey team what's the hold up he's yeah it's just it's
01:43it's been the same thing year after year and i feel like he just sits there and this team just
01:49doesn't change and it's the same thing every year and i don't understand how he's allowed to sit
01:54there and not make any moves and then you got a guy who scores 40 goals and is physical and
01:58tough
01:58on the boards and then and then you say that you wouldn't want to pay him market value i mean
02:03that
02:03doesn't even make any sense yeah and again that's from elliot friedman kind of speculating connecting
02:07some dots but it would jive with the way that they've conducted business now into the eighth
02:10offseason of eiserman i get the frustration there like i'm i'm i'm more annoyed with the
02:17the pistons okay only for one reason and i think i'm i'm more patient with them though but i am
02:23more
02:23frustrated only because the wings even if they make a big move okay they're still a ways away from
02:32getting to the stanley cup finals yep okay let alone the you know the playoffs or all that stuff
02:38the pistons everybody who has vision knew the problem before the playoffs everybody with vision
02:47and even trajan langdon addressed some of their you know maladies after the after the season
02:53knows what they need to take the next step and they haven't done that yet they've done some moves
03:00marginally i don't think it's gonna make them better than the knicks or you know those type of
03:07even even toronto now with kawaii yeah their offseason has been frustrating because it does
03:15feel like we're all staring at the same stuff get that secondary score creator for cade and then
03:21outfit the roster with shooting around them yes and it feels like they're doing the shooting around
03:25them part yeah but the thing staring you in the face is who's the co-star for cade because it's
03:31not jaylen duran even if you work out the deal and as far as a defensive chess piece but he
03:35is not a guy
03:36that's taking pressure off on the offensive end of the floor so what are you going to do about it
03:40and it feels like they are dancing around circling and we're just waiting to see them pull the trigger
03:49like stoney this this has to be leading somewhere with the moves they've made this offseason and the
03:55latest from yesterday dumping karis lavert attaching a couple second round picks taking back prince and
04:00harris who are minimum salaries creating a trade exception you factor that in with dumping isaiah
04:05stewart for for cash savings right yeah where is this leading 48 million under the luxury tax when
04:11all is said and done where is this headed it's the hot summer day and we're just getting the drip
04:16drip
04:16drip isaiah joe right uh tory and prince drip drip drip collins on a front-loaded essentially a one-year
04:22deal when you really break it down in terms of guarantees drip drip drip drip turn the hose on
04:27we're thirsty i know look he's being measured he's being patient and maybe that's part of my
04:32problem is i'm not patient enough right now uh kevin o'connor who follow who writes for the nba for
04:38yahoo he's done it for years he retweeted the uh the trade when when shams broke it yesterday
04:44and he says what's next for the pistons it gotta be something bigger brewing he sees what we see yes
04:51everybody does you don't make all these moves for john collins and to just bring durin back no and
04:57i think i'll fit the bench right and i was listening to uh bill simmons podcast and everybody's him and
05:03zach lowe talking about excuse me how disappointing the pistons off season has been
05:09you gotta tie it together with something more significant now what is it i mean i feel like
05:15we've discussed a lot of the names like the trey murphy stuff uh kevin durant maybe is an option
05:22again cap space trade exception where is this going right like even if they would get let's
05:28say michael porter jr he's far from a robin he's a really good outside shooter yeah again it would
05:36fall into the category if he makes them better but does he put them in that contender you know
05:42the premier title contender category no some text coming in way more frustrated with trajan the
05:48pistons are actually on the cusp of contending the wings are a disaster this is expected with stevie
05:53yeah i understand it to me it's the red wings i don't understand how eiserman has a job i have
05:59no
05:59trust in how he'll handle this larkin situation and ever get us to the next level signed nate
06:04all these moves are just to free up money for durin and assar the big move we need and want
06:09won't
06:09happen well they didn't have to do any of this to keep assar and durin right no at least for
06:14a year
06:14they are also saying that even if they get the 25 percent or whatever the deal that they would
06:21re-sign him for you it sets up his for his next deal that's where they're saving money for oh
06:26well
06:27but that would be awful let's not worry about his deal four years from now right let's worry about
06:31winning while kade's in his prime isn't that the frustration here is it seems like nobody's pressing
06:38to win right now right in this town uh larkin should keep the heat up just so i can hear
06:46all
06:46the eiserbot texts for the next three months peak delusional fan base good work larks i don't think
06:51there's that many steve bots anymore there are stony we had a day about a month ago roughly we were
06:59inundated with believe we took two of these eiserbot i wondered if i had been teleported back in time and
07:03it was like 2023 or something was this before the larkin after larkin stuff really yeah it was
07:09like bizarre too it was like a run on eiserbot calls if somebody still used the lottery as the
07:15excuse come on really the idea of live streaming the cutting of the sea off a larkin's jersey perhaps
07:22long-suffering season ticket holders can cut one stitch at a time like cutting down the nets in the
07:27ncaa tournament would you be uh you're only a 20 game yeah i wouldn't be in the front of that
07:33line
07:34no by the way did you have to get uh 22 games this year because there's one more home game
07:40i actually i'd have to double check on it i'm not sure i really why are they doing that 84
07:46games
07:46just so they get more money right yeah it's kind of flying under the radar i don't even know if
07:50people realize it 84 games next season has anyone ever thought that maybe larkin doesn't want to move
07:57that's why he's not expanding his teams but instead wants to embarrass and pressure eiserman
08:03no it's too late for that
08:08we're halfway through the you know off season already right they're not halfway but yes i don't
08:13think it's that he doesn't want to move i think he very much does want to move you don't have
08:18this
08:18come out you don't voice this request unless you're serious you're the captain it's the only team you've
08:24ever played for this is not a decision you make lightly he wants out do i think there is something
08:29to pressuring eiserman by not expanding the list right now during the heart of the nhl off season
08:36yeah that is embarrassing showing up pressuring eiserman he could expand the list in august and at
08:43that point the carousel is done with big moves in the nhl off season and eiserman didn't make his team
08:48better and looks like a buffoon and larkin now goes oh yeah i'll add a couple more teams steve how
08:54about that for you i mean that would be the spite play right yes and that's why if we got
09:00eiserman
09:01with truth serum i'm sure he would not say too many nice things about dylan right now but it's weird
09:05because gov mentioned the communication back and forth that we had earlier between you know eiserman and
09:12and and pat brisson larkin's agent he is very highly respected i wouldn't i can't see him doing
09:17like a scott boris bs stuff it would be done professionally i'm just going to get to a breaking
09:23point here though at some point yeah i mean if he's forced to go to traverse city well they don't
09:28do that they don't do that they're saving money
09:34248-539-9797 more feedback more frustrating pistons red wings off seasons 97-1
09:41fun
