rage 24 Report post Posted June 27, 2009 Ahh I gotcha. Yeah, he's got a bright future ahead of him. Maybe he'll be able to work 20 goals in there like Chara did this year! That'd make my year if he could I agree- we need more hitty guys to back up all the speedy, offense first kids we've got stocked up. Well rounded is definitely a very useful type of defenseman (as Ericsson proved by stepping in and filling Lilja's roll in the playoffs). And as far as the keyboard GM stuff goes... I'm as guilty as you are. It's definitely the best part of the offseason. Nice Sig BTW! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drake_Marcus 890 Report post Posted June 27, 2009 Nice Sig BTW! Surely you wouldn't question my impartiality in a debate about Ericsson's awesomeness? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rage 24 Report post Posted June 27, 2009 Surely you wouldn't question my impartiality in a debate about Ericsson's awesomeness? Oh hell no! I only had my ?'s with other stuff. After the last year or so, I am saying your a cool dude. But I must admit, you really pissed me off early on in your LGW career. HA! Now I am being very honest! I will finish my honesty by saying I have only one person (from this LGW FORUM) on IGNORE. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

10 Minute Misconduct 104 Report post Posted June 27, 2009 I read somewhere yesterday that the Wings were gonna pick and forward and defensemen in the first two rounds. So i guess they'll be taking a F & D in the 2nd round tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Finnish Wing 110 Report post Posted June 27, 2009 Big size doesn't always mean power and better 1on1 -playing. And the correct height of Rajala is 5'11. (And I don't understand why some of you said Leino was short. 6'1 ain't that short IMO.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(And I don't understand why some of you said Leino was short. 6'1 ain't that short IMO.) I'm all for it dude. I want the Wings to take the number 10 and 11 ranked Euros tomorrow... both from Finland. We're stocking up on the Fins now. We just need some Finnish d-men to fill out the ranks and let us have a Swedish 5, Finnish 5 and crotchety old Canadian 3 (who I'll proudly cheer for).

55fan 5,133 Report post Posted June 27, 2009 Dallas took Alex Chiasson. Too bad. According to his profile, his "pump up" song is "Don't Stop Believin'". He'd have fit in at the Joe. Good player, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wmubronco420 25 Report post Posted June 27, 2009 hmmm, i like our picks but im worried about size two guys under 180lbs. if we go for rajala later we could set a record for lightest draft class Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlakKy 58 Report post Posted June 27, 2009 With Tatar being drafted (kinda small)... I wonder if they will draft another small guy like Rajala. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
