I think Hudler is there. Filppula is still very much in the defensive mindset, and thats fine as long as he works his way into the offensive mindset gradually. Then all we need is a young veteran goal scorer and this team is a top contender without a doubt.

I do think they need a proven scorer to help carry that 2nd line and elevate the play of Flip and Hudler. That guy sure ain't sammy.

And looking down the roster there really isn't anyone that stands out.

I say we get Brett Hull to come act as the old Goat for the 2 new Kids. ;p

Genius.

In all seriousness, though, I do think a veteran presence would be great. Outside of Dallas Drake, which isn't a good option, the Wings just don't really have anybody. I think Samuelsson is the best choice, and that's not saying much. That second line, though, is really going to be what makes or breaks this team. I think you just have to sort of employ a rotating door here for a while and just figure out what works.

Or Darryl Bootland. There's always that.

If we had a second line, we would be set, yeah. We'd totally have one too, if Flip and Huds knew what was up. I'm sure they'll get it though...they just need...umm...I don't know, really. Got any ideas?

Whats stopping Chelios from centring a Hudler Filppula line? Nothing!

With that said, Samuelsson has had a good start to the season, his offense is still showing.

Yeah I really think they need a 30ish y/o goal scorer for the 2nd line. I really think they need someone like that to guide those two young guys. Theyve got the tools, they just need somebody who knows how to bring them all together.

Only pre-season I know but Hudler-Filppula-Franzen was great during the exhibition games.
