Majsheppard 203 Report post Posted April 9, 2011 Howard hasn't proven anything, and Larsson is a very good prospect. Larsson turns UFA in two years, so we may well see him come back over and play in the NHL. Howard has had one good season and one mediocre season, and is two years older than Larsson. So calling the Howard v. Larsson comparison over is a bit premature. Larsson is moving away from making it to the NHL. The reports out of Detroit make it seem like there is no desire to bring him over at all. If he stuck with the AHL for another year he could have been the starter THIS year.
