Jesusberg 1,256 Report post Posted May 22, 2010 I really hope this kid can work on his skating, because pretty much everything else is there. He'll probably end up being a 3rd line center if everything goes right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dat's sick 1,002 Report post Posted May 22, 2010 A shift + goal from Joakim Andersson in SEL playoffs. He is wearing number 18. [media] [media] If that is indicative of his play, I could easily see him scoring 30+ goals in the NHL. (j/k) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
titanium2 867 Report post Posted May 22, 2010 His style of play is supposed to be more suited for the North American game. I was really hoping the Wings had a Sammy Pahlsson type player with him but Hakan says he's more like Filppula. So... Another 2nd/3rd tweener. Not much to get excited about I guess.

Jesusberg 1,256 Report post Posted May 22, 2010 When did you see him skate? How did it look? I haven't personally seen him skate, but everything I've read about him indicates that his skating, and more specifically his acceleration is a bit of an issue. He's been touted as a very good two-way forward who isn't shy with the physical stuff. He's been favorably compared to Pahlsson, so I'm on board. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WorkingOvertime 536 Report post Posted May 23, 2010 What is the optimal time-line for him joining the Wings? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cjm502 165 Report post Posted May 23, 2010 (edited) What is the optimal time-line for him joining the Wings? It all depends on how he plays in the AHL. I think the chances are slim but him playing on the Wings in 2011-2012 is not completely unrealistic, but 2 years with Grand Rapids is much more realistic. Edit: Ahhh, nvm. I highly doubt he will be with the Wings in 11-12. For some reason I was under the impression he is much better than he actually is.

seeinred 1,488 Report post Posted May 23, 2010 If that is indicative of his play, I could easily see him scoring 30+ goals in the NHL. (j/k) Maybe over a career . That dude is the epitome of a bender. But players can definitely improve their skating pretty quickly, so hopefully he does just that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
titanium2 867 Report post Posted May 23, 2010 Those who've watched him in the WJC say his skating is fine. They expect him to skate like Zetterberg. He won't be the fastest but he'll be good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
