Broken 16 381 Report post Posted December 30, 2009 (edited) ^The funny part is he's getting those 2nd and 3rd line minutes now and still not producing. esteef Leino needs someone to set him up. He also needs someone to dig it out of the corners, so they can pass it to someone that can set him up. Plus he needs a couple people to police his immediate area so nobody lifts his stick or pushes him right as he's about to shoot. The Wings aren't giving him the proper environment. It's their fault.

Guest mindfly Report post Posted December 30, 2009 (edited) I can't understand the people who think he's something the wings need, the only thing he should do is to head back to europe where he can play his floating non-contact hockey, you have to give your soul into it to stay alive in the nhl if you have leino's condition, he's just, as the topics says, lazy and sucks and shouldnt ever be on this team when everyone is healthy.

Why can't the guy in the corner also make the pass? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Broken 16 381 Report post Posted December 30, 2009 (edited) Why can't the guy in the corner also make the pass? Because there needs to be two passes made to help ensure that Ville has the least possible amount of coverage. 1) Player 1 goes into the corner to get the puck that will eventually make it's way to Ville's golden hockey stick 2) Player 1 passes the puck to Player 2, who is hopefully double covered, who then finds a sneaky, uncovered Ville hiding somewhere 3) Player 2 does everything in his power to draw every defender and shovel the puck to an uncovered Leino 4) Leino, uncovered, scores a goal Problem solved. Wings get a goal and Ville doesn't have to actually work for it. Edited December 30, 2009 by Broken 16 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Lidstromboli Report post Posted December 30, 2009 i would suggest a jetpack or some kind of hover skates, but Leino probably does enough floating as it is Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest zackmorris Report post Posted January 1, 2010 Ville has much more of a future than someone like Newbury. All we seem to be able to do is think under the "ZOMG FIX IT NOW" mindset with no thought towards the future, and upside. Leino's developing. For the millionth time, I'm glad this forum doesn't run the team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Carman 387 Report post Posted January 1, 2010 Leino needs to keep up this play. It's a good start though, he battled and was actually good in the corners and got the puck to the net. Hopefully him and Fil can keep it going. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hockeytown0001 7,652 Report post Posted January 1, 2010 Leino looked a bit better against the Avs. Getting a goal should build his confidence, and hopefully that translates into better play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
