eva unit zero 271 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 Since it looks like the Wings are basically done signing and the roster is pretty much set for this season, I thought I would start a thread for predictions of what you think the players on the Wings will put up on the scoresheet. Here's mine: Zetterberg 41-62-103 Datsyuk 30-56-86 Lidstrom 15-50-65 Holmstrom 30-28-58 Rafalski 9-46-55 Hudler 22-31-53 Filppula 18-32-50 Samuelsson 20-28-48 Cleary 20-22-42 Grigorenko 16-24-40 Kronwall 7-26-33 Draper 12-19-31 Franzen 12-14-26 Lebda 5-15-20 Drake 8-9-17 Maltby 5-5-10 Kopecky 5-4-9 Chelios 1-10-11 Lilja 1-4-5 Quincey 1-1-2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stormboy 47 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 this goes without saying for all players, but is especially true of zetta what with his nagging wrist problems and all: z will have to have a perfectly healthy season to break a hundred points. i'd love to see him score forty goals, but i'm not sure it's going to happen. honestly i'd more expect datsyuk to break a hundred than z...but it would be sweet if either of them did! other than that i think lidstrom's numbers might fall off a little bit...and i'd expect rafalski to get a few more points under detroit's system than he did with the devils. i think flip and huds might get 20 goal seasons if they're given proper playing time, which would be excellent. it'd be great to get another 20 goal season out of cleary, but unless he goes on an amazing tear like he did last winter, it's not likely. i'm not saying it's impossible, but some part of me feels like that was a bit of a fluke. although i'm not sure how the lines will play out, i don't think grigs will get enough ice time to get 40 points. huds appeared in seventy-plus games last season, but only managed meager ice time. the kid is a goal scorer, and he only got 25 points. i'm not sure what to expect as far as ice time goes for grigorenko. i'm not sure what to expect as far as scoring out of kopecky. in some junior leagues he was a near- or beyond-point per game scorer, while in others he averaged less than a quarter of a point per game. obviously, he's only had one goal and no assists in 27 games with the wings, and i assume we want him more for his physical play than his scoring ability, but i wonder if he could do better than you predicted with lots of playing time on a line with play makers. (which he probably won't get, at least this season... but you never know, with injuries.) that's my analysis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeeRYCE 2 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 I think both Z and Dats will account for at least 100 points. Barring injuries of course, but I believe they will at least be on pace for 100+ points if they were to play an 82 games schedule. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flip-check 6 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 - Datsyuk will lead the team in scoring. - Franzen will score 20. - Hasek will be ahead of Quincey for points (3 assists) Other than that, your list looks solid. Dats? Hank hit thirty-nine the year before, he was on pace for 40+ last year easy, he'll do it again. He won't hit 50... a low 40 number is his if he's injury-free. For some reason I think that Dats -should- be the goalscorer of the two, but I don't think he'll break thirty this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(which he probably won't get, at least this season... but you never know, with injuries.) that's my analysis. Do you really think Babs is going to give all the PP time that went to Lang, Wiliams, Bert and Calder, to Hudler and Grigs?? Datsyuk and Zetterberg will get increased ice time now that Sammy has taken over Williams point position (opening up 1 spot down low) and Lang has left (opening up another spot down low). Im betting Hudler, Grigs, and Cleary see spotty PP time in the beginning of the year, and surely when a PP is crucial, Zetterberg and Datsyuk will be spending more time out there. Not to mention, Zetterberg, Datsyuk, and Homer will be together for an entire year barring injuries. Datsyuk: 33-75-108 Zetterberg: 51-47-98 Holmstrom: 26-22-48 Sammy: 21-21-42 Filppula:13-29-42 Hudler: 24-15-39 Cleary:15-19-34 Franzen:18-14-32 Grigorenko:14-16-30 Draper: 8-11-19 Drake: 7-4-11 Kopecky: 4-4-8 Maltby: 4-3-7 Lidstrom: 14-64-78 Rafalski: 8-55-63 Kronwall: 8-29-37 Lebda: 7-19-26 Lilja: 1-10-11 Quincey: 1-9-10 Chelios: 0-9-9 Hasek: 0-2-2 Osgood: 0-0-0 Goals: 277, 1.7 assists per goal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
