KrazyGangsta 79 Report post Posted February 18, 2009 Ya, I think when Howard makes the team McCollum will eventually get moved up as a backup in GR for a season then take over the starter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted February 19, 2009 He's been absolutely brilliant in the OHL this season, for two teams. Still got huge hopes for this guy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
34Legace34 0 Report post Posted February 20, 2009 He got a big win against London last night. All signs point to a Mike Murphy (Belleville) - McCollum (Brampton) showdown in the OHL East Final. Between the World Juniors and the upcoming OHL playoffs, he will have had lots of big game experience this season. Should end up in GR next year, but you never know with the way the Wings handle their goaltending situation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted March 6, 2009 McColllum stopped 21 of 23 shots today in a 5-2 win. Must have been some impressive stops amongst the 21 as he was awarded the 1st star. This kid is one heck of a prospect, every single game in a high scoring league he dominates. First in the league for GAA (2.07) and 2nd in S% (.929). Gun!

Dimaline312000 51 Report post Posted April 4, 2009 I gotta believe he will be in the AHL next season. 3 or 4 seasons after that if that long he will be on the Wings NHL Roster. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

titanium2 867 Report post Posted April 13, 2009 "I think it's time for him to move on," said Red Wings director of scouting Joe McDonnell, who oversees the Ontario region. "Of course, it's how he (performs) at camp and things like how he's adjusting to the pro life, but we definitely have a plan for him to be in the American League next year." http://www.redwingscentral.com/stories/200...3_RWCReport.php With the signing of Pearce, you'd think that one of the four (Howard, Larsson, McCollum and Pearce) will be moved. If so, then my hunch is that Jimmy Howard is tired of waiting and jumping through the Red Wings hoops and the brass is tired of not seeing any consistency from him. Also, Daniel Larsson adapted well to the NA style and rinks; before this year he had two successful years in the Swedish Men's League, who some like to argue that in many ways is more advanced than the AHL; won goaltender of the year in the SEL; and overall is quite ready to take the next step on most other teams. Some like to argue that he was ready before he came over here to be a backup. He just needed some time to adjust to the difference in nuances and details of the North American game, perhaps most notably the smaller rink size and the faster pace. Maybe they think that with everything considered, he's ready to backup Ozzie. He'll get his shot to compete for the job this summer and I guess we'll just see what happens. I think that Howard will be traded after this year's upcoming camp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
