redwings8831 40 Report post Posted September 29, 2010 Not sure about the order that they list the guys, but he is the 5th one, so maybe he's got a chance yet. Alphabetical Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevkrause 1,247 Report post Posted September 29, 2010 As of yesterday SJ sent 2 more defensemen to the minors. Lilja is still on the training camp roster. Camp roster Not sure about the order that they list the guys, but he is the 5th one, so maybe he's got a chance yet. I watched the game on NHL network last night and he looked solid, 15mins played, +1 rating and looked very solid on the PK... which was needed because VAN scored at least one PP goal when he wasn't on the ice and I don't think he was on the ice for the other PP goal against either...

titanium2 867 Report post Posted September 30, 2010 1 assist tonight Kind of aggravates the reality of Ericsson's play as of recent. I know, I know. It's the pre-season. I expect the level of play to differ significantly by the time we're 20 games into the regular season. In Ericsson's case, hopefully a difference for the better. Hope hope hope. Oh please God make him play well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WizardOfOz30 1,886 Report post Posted September 30, 2010 I'm glad to hear they want him. I'd prefer him in red but at least he gets to play at least one more season. Maybe the Wings can try to get him back next year if we need him. 1 55fan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good, he's earned it and belongs in the NHL... he could end up being a very steadying force on their blueline and has looked VERY solid out there for them this preseason... Also, that translation... um... what?!?!? 1 Vladifan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NeverForgetMac25 483 Report post Posted September 30, 2010 I would laugh my friggin' ass off if Lils got a contract with the Sharks and had a better year than Ericsson. Apples to oranges. Lilja is the better player at this point, but he's almost a decade older than Ericsson. Retaining E isn't just about this season and how he would stack up against Lilja in SJ. That being said, I do wish Lilja all the best. I've been one of those people supporting him a year or so before it became trendy on LGW. The guy is as solid of a bottom pairing guy as a team in this salary-capped NHL could get. 2 Zeowingsfan and Vladifan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not saying this is a Quincey situation (OMG WE LOST QUINCEY NUUU). I'm just saying the fact that Lilja was considered useless by this board and that Ericsson's higher ceiling would mean he would have to improve this season makes me want to see him thrive in San Jose (assuming he gets a contraact). It would be great to see Lilja say "See? I was worth SOMETHING good" with his performance this season.
