Hockeytown appreciates Jake man, he was a beauty that all detroit fans had an absolute pleasure of watching. It looks like the Sharks are on their way up with a lot of excitement coming to town.
Just started watching the red wings last season.. went to 2 games... after watching the stats at the first game.. i decided i was a Walman fan.. im sooo super bummed he got traded. I was mad to be honest. But hes going to be great wherever he goes. I'll still be a Walman fan. Love this guy. Good luck Jake.. I'm going to miss you but i believe in you and i believe youre going to shine ❤
You guys are getting a solid D man, with an absolute clapper of a slapshot. He’s got a pretty nasty stutter step move he does along the blue line too. Sad Stevie traded Wally, but cap dumps happen. It’s just business.
"Do you have an idea what went behind being traded?" GMs will never reveal why they traded a player unless asked in a presser and even them they probably wont reveal much more than crumbs
The only way to free up cap space was to trade someone with value… outside of Seider, Edvinson and Walman, the Wings have no defensemen of value… we are stuck with them 😢
Meh, we didn't even make the playoffs. Sure, wings are on the rise, but he gets to go to a team with a supposed superstar otw. Considering sj could actually get a pick higher than #4, that's a plus
I know right? Lol. Being a part of a team that's just making their way into the playoffs, making a name for themselves as a unit, then getting shipped off to a highly taxed bottom feeder is rough. I wish the best for him though. He'll get top pairing minutes over there.
He's not excited at all. They are very good at saying the right things and staying professional. Excited to joing the worst team in the NHL last year.....sure you are......
Players can sometimes be excited about a bad team if it means they are getting more playing time or specific roles (PP quarterback, etc.) that they want to. However his role wont change much from Detroit to SJ.
We will miss you Jake. Detroit fans hearts are breaking
Nah
sharks fans are happy
Def will miss Jake's mobility, clap bombs, and game winning cellys
so ready to see the griddy
Jake, my girl and I love you and are heartbroken. We'll always be Walman fans no matter what.
All love from Detroit, you guys are gonna love Walman. Great hockey player and great person!
Looking forward to seeing Walman in teal! He's a beast!
Lmao Yzerman “hey just checking in how’s your summer going? …….. oh yeah btw, you’ve been traded…” 🤦🏻♂️
… along with a pick…
… for future considerations, anyway
Lmaoo

The Sharks got a real one in Big Jake, they are going to be fun to watch here real quick

Still really fucking bummed by this Idiotic move on Steve's end. Thanks for the memories and all the off ice stuff you did, Jake!
We will miss you Wally! All the best!

I’m gonna miss you buddy
The " Vibes " man. LeCompte will love him!
Will miss you Wally :(
Can't wait for the griddy
As life-long Wings fan, we'll miss you terribly. But, ill go to a few Sharks games and I expect The Griddy!
Sharks are cooking in Free agency.
Gutted he’s gone.
Going from a winning team to a team that won a total of 19 games last season…there’s no way this guy is excited lol

Good guy, loved detroit.
Jake Wallman Gabe madison
sister
hes got ripped off, all red wings got were "future consideratiosn" i bet he hates the wings for betrayl.
For real to just be given away and sending a pick along with him is just insult to injury
😢 😭 😿 😢 😭
