Interesting I guess. If Handemark and Stromwall rumors are true it's almost like Yzerman is letting Andersson build this team. 7 minutes ago, krsmith17 said: Lol typical kip... Avoid responding to an entire post by picking out, and misrepresenting a single word. You're an angry individual and I feel bad for you. You're obviously going through some s***, but there's no need to take it out on people on a "hockey discussion board". You're the one that needs to "grow up" pal. Agreed that Kip should respond to all your points, but also no one is taking anything out on you, get real. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Particularly when he makes things up. For instance, I never said Rasmussen was better than Veleno because he's "big and strong' as KRsmith indicated in his post.

You criticized me saying: "Typical Kip avoids responding to an entire post...". The "big and strong" comment was in the post I was supposed to be responding to in it's entirety, according to your logic. If I don't actually need to respond to the entire post, as you're now indicating, then I'm confused about your "typical Kip..." post. So you're mad that I didn't respond to your entire post, even though a portion of that post was directed at CRL? Ok man.

Sure seems like a lot of guys might be departing, which should make some folks happy. Handemark and Stromwall would be warm bodies and healthy competition. I could see these deals being contingent on whether or not Yzerman can make the moves he wants at the deadline. Like if he can't move Helm or something similar then maybe he doesn't finalize this Handemark contract. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Presumably they're both better than whomever would be called up from Toledo. But you're right, if Yzerman doesn't move out some NHL players then Ras and Veleno don't get called up and there is not a spot (or need) for Stormwall and Handemark.

nyqvististhefuture 1,002 Report post Posted February 12, 2020 I cant imagine any of those 2 guys coming to north america at 26 and spending 1-2 years in grand rapids , dont know if they can come down now and play the last 10-20 games and having a trial run like hirose did last year and maybe start down in grand rapids next season but i cant see them sticking there the whole season .

Yeah MacEachern won the Mr. Hockey award (best high school player in Michigan) a few years back playing for Brother Rice. Knew a couple dudes who were just leaving that program when he was coming in and they always talked about how good he was. I watched him play in college a handful of times when i was still living in Michigan. Never thought he was that great honestly. He doesn't look to be that great at the NHL level so far either. They can have Ericsson and Daley for him. Edited February 12, 2020 by ChristopherReevesLegs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
