KEN HOLLAND RUMORS & GOSSIP
Detroit’s Youngsters Get The Message
from Craig Custance of ESPN,
The message to him from the Red Wings is that he has an opportunity in training camp to make the team, a rarity for a club that rarely skips a step in the developmental cycle.
“Every player wants to rush the process,” Mantha said when we chatted after the camp. “It would be a lie telling you I want to play in Grand Rapids next year. For...

Some Ken Holland And Mike Babcock Talk
from Ken Campbell of The Hockey News,
These are interesting times for the Detroit Red Wings. They’re coming off a season in which they just made the playoffs after moving to the far inferior Eastern Conference, went 0-for-everyone in free agency and have a mix of wobbly veterans and kids that could well see their run of 23 straight seasons in the playoffs come to an end.

An open letter to Ken Holland re: re-signing Kyle Quincey and Daniel Cleary
Dear Ken Holland,
On behalf of my fellow Wings fans, we've had it. We are fed up, we are fed up with you, and we are angry. Why?
Because the concept of loyalty to players and alumni has, in our eyes, clouded the Red Wings management's judgment.
Spending the kind of money that a statistically superior, younger and right-shooting defenseman in Anton Stralman got from...

Daniel Cleary Re-Signs With Detroit Red Wings, Just as Ken Holland Promised (for Some Reason)
Daniel Cleary will be back with the Detroit Red Wings for the 2014-15 season, eliminating a roster spot for one of the team’s up-and-coming forwards. The Wings re-signed Cleary Thursday to a one-year deal worth $1.5 million with another $1 million in bonuses available, according to the Free Press’ Helene St. James.
All of that is reason enough for Red Wings fans to be frustrated...

Ken Holland’s Wikipedia Page Altered by a Disgruntled Red Wings Fan
Ken Holland’s popularity may be at an all-time low in Hockeytown after he stumbled his way into re-signing Kyle Quincey on Tuesday. To wit: Holland’s Wikipedia page was hit by what we can only assume is an unhappy Detroit Red Wings fan.
Surely, the page will be changed back to its usual form at some point, but the altered intro paragraph lingered for awhile on Wednesday afternoon...

Holland after tough day: 'We'll keep kicking tires'
Detroit Red Wings general manager Ken Holland had a bad day Tuesday, when he was snubbed by the unrestricted free agents he coveted most -- among others, Matt Niskanen (who landed in Washington) and Dan Boyle (who signed with the New York Rangers).
But Holland understands the competition for free agents is fierce under the salary cap and he won't always land his man.
