Does anyone else find it interesting the commish was in attendance tonight instead of the biggest market + the 2 time winner? 

He knows where the most exciting place to see a game is obviously.

Now, about those that were hating on Raanta early....

Already ate my crow, Lets get game two any way we can, and if Raanta needs a break the timeline I'm hearing for Freddie is game 3 or 4..... I don't think we will sweep them but I think we will own PNC and with a fresh FA steak at least one in Boston and finish it at home in game 5.

Still early in the Series. Just one game. Lets hold on until the Series is over before we make a declaration that Raanta is going to win the Stanley Cup. With Anderson out until next Series we're going to see how good and consistent Raanta truly is going forward.

I loved the performance but Raanta, but I have to see a road game with the same type of play before considering him consistent he pretty much said himself that he road the crowd energy to that performance.

    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
