I don't think this at all. He's been REALLY good in GR. But IMO he didn't look ready for a top4 NHL role last year when he was up. If his game is at that same level coming out of camp, and we don't have room on the roster, he should absolutely go down and play the #1 role in GR some more. Intead of waiving a different player. We signed Gus because no one on the backend can score besides Seider, Edvinsson included last year. Had Edvinsson put up pts last year we likely don't sign Gus, and Eddogs place in the NHL is guaranteed. But he didn't put up pts. So here we are. We have to excercise patience with a prospect like Edvinsson. Worst thing we could do right now is say "here's a top4 spot and a pp unit, go be what we hope you can be one day be" and then have him fall flat. 100%

I think we are going to see a lot of Edvinsson next year. But in the event of a roster squeeze, if he's playing anything like he did last year still, he's the one going down.

We do not all know that. You and few others seem to believe it. And you're ignoring the fact that Yzerman also said he won't be waiving AJo. Or is that another Yzerscam lie in your book? Edvinsson is going to have to play a lot better than last year to squeeze out a vet.

He just doesn't have elite level moves. If the goalie coach taught him how to stack the pads he would make a lot more of those tough east to west saves. But he never stacks the pads, and wonder if that's due to repeated groin injuries or something. But if that's the case, just barrel role or something? Hoping the flexible finn will show him these moves this season.

That's not a certainty at all. Yzerman has already said he doesn’t have a spot on this team at this moment and will need to earn it at camp. We've been over this. Yzerman has already said he won't be waiving Johansson. Why? He's 21 years old, and didn't do much during his time up last year. Spending more time in GR is probably good for him. Eddog will never be as good as Seider.

Newsy went with the vet in Reimer in game 1 last season. I expect he'll do something similar and play Talbot in game 1 this year. But after that I expect a rotation of Lyon and Husso. Lyon deserves the looks after last season, but he's really not that impressive of a goaltender, so I don't think #1 is truly all his. Husso and Talbot will be afforded every chance to take it. Best man wins. Like last year.

With Lagesson and Edvinsson in GR, and Johansson in Detroit, we have $18.544 mil in cap space. That's with 10 forwards, 6 Dmen, and 3 goalies. Once Raymond, Seider, and Berggren are signed, we will be at 12, 7, and 3. 18.5 should be more than enough to sign all 3. No one NEEDS to be bought out fellas.

Pretty much. He's the only non-core player that's eligible besides Petry. And a Petry buyout barely saves us any money. I don't think we buyout Husso... unless SY really needs the money for another move.

Now compare the minutes these players eat to how much Sprong plays. Points aren't everything partner.

Now how do you feel?

I will give it a few seasons. He looks like a slow learner. But when he finally impresses ill say so. So far he hasnt done schit.

Pure skin is cool now. Everybody and their brother has regard garfield trattoos. No one cares.

@Axl Foley what happened to his 4 million?

Veleno has been on the roster bc we have zero decent centers. Theyre treating him like a prospect still. But last year he actually got some limited special teams time. Im fine with this. Sprong literally doesnt defend and will be signing in the KHL

I havent been very impressed by edvinsson

Dick is too smol

Pearsgod went OFF last season after being dropped by the Griffins. Signed in Czechia and scored 29 pts in 23 games. Arguably the best play on his team. Time to recall him?

I can see Yzerman waiting as long as September. These two contracts are going to define much of the next decade for the Red Wings.

ASP will be a much better Dman than Edvinsson

Debrincat reminds me of Jeff Skinner. Good brain, good legs, good shot, terrible with the puck on his stick.

I dont travel for work anymore. But gonna do the red woods and shasta prolly soon.

Wheeler is a doof Not going to rank edogg, berger, or AJo since theyre joining the team. Or goalies. 1. ASP 2. Danielson 3. Kasper 4. MBN 5. Wallinder 6. Mazur 7. Buium 8. Soderblom 9. Buchnelikov 10. Lombardi 11. Finnie Everyone else its either too soon to rank, or too hard to say

Nerves = shattered

Need to hangout more at playgrounds like you and scott i guess

Darn if i only i was like you and had a boyfriend to play handball with
