Branton87 77 Report post Posted August 5, 2010 My deepest hope is, however, that Babs has spent the entire summer giving Helm "shot practice." I love his speed and aggressiveness, but what good does it do when he breaks away with the puck only to end up shooting like a 13-year old girl who just drank three pina coladas???!!! Skip to about 50 seconds. Also, watch the rest of the video. It brings back good memories of that night. Haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blgillett 48 Report post Posted August 5, 2010 If he does develop some hands we won't be able to afford him for several years, because his value will go way up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jesusberg 1,256 Report post Posted August 5, 2010 (edited) Not that I'm against player progression, but I almost hope that Helm doesn't develop too much of a scoring knack. Chipping in 10-15 goals and grinding it out the way he does is perfect in my opinion. If he becomes too much of an offensive threat his value goes up, along with his cap hit. If we can keep paying him in the 900K-1.5M area he could very well be a Red Wings player for years to come. Edited August 5, 2010 by Jesusberg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
