Don’t ask Detroit Red Wings head coach Todd McLellan if the team plans on moving anyone, because he’s only going to make you think.\u00a0Trade rumors have been circulating\u00a0the Wings lately, so, naturally, fans are curious, as are members of McLellan’s own family.<\/p>\n
Things started heating up after the Red Wings recalled Nate Danielson, one of their most exciting prospects who would have likely earned a spot in the lineup if he hadn’t suffered an injury in the preseason.\u00a0<\/p>\n
On Tuesday,\u00a0McLellan revealed\u00a0“My son calls me and he says, ‘oh, you guys are trading some players.’<\/p>\n
“No, we’re not. That doesn’t mean we won’t or ever will, but that’s not the reason why Danny’s here.\u00a0Danny’s here because he played real well at training camp.\u00a0We have some players that are struggling right now, and we thought he could inject a little life\u00a0and some enthusiasm into the team and maybe provide us with some offense.”<\/p>\n
It didn’t sound like McLellan gave his son any leeway. “No, we’re not. That doesn’t mean we won’t or ever will” is another way of saying, “maybe we will, maybe we won’t.” The takeaway is simple: McLellan is going to keep everyone guessing, and that’s the way it needs to be.<\/p>\n
Just because, regarding Danielson,\u00a0McLellan previously said,\u00a0“We wanted to see him now, so we could make some decisions perhaps on some other players,” it doesn’t mean he’s pointing to a potential trade. With someone like Nate Danielson in the lineup who is already capable of playing middle-six and eventual top-six minutes, there’s no way they could bring him in without making tough decisions with other players.<\/p>\n
Detroit wasn’t recalling Danielson to play between 10 and 11 minutes a game. What good would that have done when he could have had first-line minutes in Grand Rapids? That would risk hurting his development. So changes to the lineup were coming, especially after the Red Wings found themselves outscored 10-2 in their previous three contests.\u00a0<\/p>\n
McLellan made it clear that if you ask if there will be a trade in the near future or assume, he’ll use vague language and leave you guessing. Even if the Red Wings were leading the Atlantic Division instead of struggling, McLellan would have given the same answer.<\/p>\n
The best organizations won’t tell you what their plans are or who they might move. Doing so fuels unwanted attention toward the team, and that could put the locker room on edge. Especially players who aren’t locked into a long-term deal with the Red Wings.<\/p>\n
By giving a bland, but blunt, response to the media regarding his previous statements or even what his son said to him, he’s making sure the team’s focus doesn’t deviate from the ice. And the best way to keep everyone in town and make zero decisions on actually moving anyone elsewhere is if the team starts winning and playing consistent hockey again.<\/p>\n
The wife of Cleveland Browns offensive lineman Wyatt Teller fired back after fans criticized her outfit in a video posted to the team\u2019s social media feed.<\/p>\n
The Browns posted a video celebrating Teller\u2019s nomination as the team\u2019s Salute to Service nominee for his dedication to supporting veterans and service members. His wife, Carly, surprised him at the facility, as well as his two children. Teller\u2019s dad served as a reserve for both the Marines and US Army, per a press release from the Browns.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a special moment,\u201d\u00a0Teller said. \u201cIn a way, I feel like I\u2019m honoring my dad and everything he stood for. I\u2019m proud to represent the Browns and to continue supporting the men and women who serve our country.\u201d<\/p>\n
It was a heartwarming behind-the-scenes video of a Browns player spending time with his family. However, some fans quickly shifted the conversation, taking aim at Carly Teller\u2019s outfit choice.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m sure you are a great person and lovely family. Next time you go to your husband\u2019s workplace full of virile athletes, please wear a bra and not a see-through top,\u201d\u00a0a fan said. \u201cLooks unprofessional and that\u2019s not the place.\u201d<\/p>\n
Carly Teller had the perfect response.<\/p>\n
\u201cNext time you go to comment about my nipples on the internet, please don\u2019t,\u201d\u00a0she responded. \u201cLooks gross and that\u2019s not the place.\u201d<\/p>\n
Teller was a\u00a0popular name at the trade deadline. He\u2019s a three-time Pro Bowler and two-time All-Pro selection in the final year of his deal, which could have been an attractive trade piece for a contender.<\/p>\n
However, Teller stayed put in Cleveland \u2014 where he intends to stay long term and bring a winning culture back to the Browns.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t want to tuck tail and leave because I feel like a couple years ago we were that close to being in the AFC Championship,\u201d\u00a0Teller said earlier this month. \u201cThat\u2019s just mindboggling for any Cleveland Browns fan. Because it\u2019s just been since the \u201980s since we\u2019ve done it. We used to do it consistently, so how can we bring that culture back that goes to the playoffs, that has a winning team, that it\u2019s not the same old Cleveland Browns?<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd I feel like we were right there and then just kind of took a step back. But I\u2019m not blind to the fact that we\u2019re right there. And again, as bad as the season is viewed or perceived, we\u2019re like two or three plays away from a lot different season. Now how can we be more consistent and win, and that\u2019s what good teams do late.\u201d<\/p>\n
An extension for Teller with the Browns does not appear imminent. But it is likely something the team will discuss this offseason, given the uncertainty around the future of their offensive line.<\/p>\n
Veteran guard Joel Bitonio, now 34, is in the final year of his contract and could retire after a dozen seasons in Cleveland. Center Ethan Pocic is also playing on an expiring deal, and both tackle spots have been marked by inconsistency, adding to the Browns\u2019 long-term uncertainty up front.<\/p>\n
With Teller remaining in Cleveland at the trade deadline, a new deal could be on the horizon for the three-time Pro Bowler, per Zac Jackson of The Athletic.<\/p>\n
\u201cGiven the state of the offensive line, getting a new deal done for\u00a0Wyatt Teller\u00a0figures to be a priority either later this season or in early 2026,\u201d\u00a0Jackson reported earlier this month.<\/p>\n
Teller and the Browns will look to turn things around on Sunday against the\u00a0Baltimore Ravens in front of a home crowd.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
