MulesWillFly93 199 Report post Posted February 26, 2012 It'll be interesting to see what happens with Quincey and Commodore on a line - I like it for the toughness factor, but Ericsson had been a lot steadier lately, and having the two new guys playing together opens the door for potential mishaps. I hope they end up meshing well together, but we'll just have to wait and see. Get better, Ericsson - don't like to see guys hurt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Donaldjr2448 43 Report post Posted February 26, 2012 As much as I hate Ericsson and hos play, I had the same issues with Lilja in 2005-2006, but soon after Lils became our biggest penalty killer and I thought was a major impact on the Stanley Cup Team in 2008. I really feel that Ericsson may become that player in the years to come. It sucks that he is injured, just gives other guys a chance to showcase. I surley hope Kindl is moved, I personally do not see an upside to his game and I think we would benefit more by having Smith in his place. Like others have said, I think Kindl is going to be a package deal tomorrow and thats has to be the only reason he is on the ice lately. 1 haroldsnepsts reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blgillett 48 Report post Posted February 26, 2012 Commodore. Yup I thought he should have been playing instead of Ericsson in the first place. He has improved a lot threw out the year the more he plays the better he has gotten the system not to mention he adds the toughness that every body has been begging for. 1 Mors reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vladifan 680 Report post Posted February 26, 2012 1330224859[/url]' post='2262847']I know a lot of ppl joke but I think this effects the D much more than people realize. Quincey still looks nervous and Kindl and Commie are streaky at best. E eats up a ton of minutes, plays the PK and has been solid for the team. I know all the Ericsson haters will be thrilled but I think it will effect the team with the lines and chemistry....I think it's a loss Heal up Big Rig + 2 Nightfall and Hockeymom1960 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hairy Lime 234 Report post Posted February 26, 2012 Yup I thought he should have been playing instead of Ericsson in the first place. He has improved a lot threw out the year the more he plays the better he has gotten the system not to mention he adds the toughness that every body has been begging for. He adds the same type of toughness Abby adds - a punching bag for opponents. We might as well put Kindl back in there and see just what we have with him. I haven't been impressed thus far, but I think it's too early to write him off. As for toughness, I would make some serious inquiries as to the Islanders' Matt Martin's availability.

nuts2u 22 Report post Posted February 26, 2012 Duh! The purpose of this forum is only to agree with Holland and Babcock. Any independent thought is highly discouraged. I can remember not too many years ago there was a lot of nasty s*** being said about Kronwall the first few years he was up. I think it's amazing that a player selected dead ******* last in the draft is even playing in the league and guess what, This so called pylon as so many like to refer to him as has made it on to one of the best teams in the league. Duh all you want. If the shoe fits wear it, if not then you shouldn't feel offended. 2 Vladifan and Hockeymom1960 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miller76 463 Report post Posted February 26, 2012 Ansar Khan @AnsarKhanMLive Reply Retweet Favorite · Open Holland said he's not looking for a depth defenseman in wake of Ericsson injury, only a decent-sized forward. Ansar Khan @AnsarKhanMLive Reply Retweet Favorite · Open Wings don't think Ericsson will need surgery for chip fracture in wrist. Should be back late March, early April at latest.

kipwinger 8,524 Report post Posted February 27, 2012 I like Commie, but i rather Kindl play Orr like hockey while Ericsson's injured, so that when he's healthy Biggie but smalls ain't needed no more. Wings then get the luxury of trading away Big Rig to the all you can eat Florida Panthers, gaining a healthy chunk of salary cap space, along with having all star calibre J. Kindl's outta all of this. Repeat for 2013. I have a funny feeling though this might not happen, so get well soon there Big Rig :battle: Where are you from and what does this even mean?

55fan 5,133 Report post Posted February 27, 2012 (edited) Where are you from and what does this even mean? Krypton (since his name is Superman) and only he knows what it means. Punctuation might help. I'll give it a try: I like Commie, but I'd rather that Kindl play Orr-like hockey while Ericsson's injured, so that when he's healthy, Big E (but small) isn't needed any more. Wings then get the luxury of trading away Big Rig to the all-you-can-eat Florida Panthers, gaining a healthy chunk of salary cap space, along with having an all star-calibre J. Kindl out of all of this. Repeat for 2013. I have a funny feeling though this might not happen, so get well soon there Big Rig At least it makes grammatical sense even if it is a bit... unlikely. Personally, I still have hope for E, but he has a ways to go. I hope he heals quickly. Sitting around injured doesn't help your game.

I'm not sure what it all means exactly but it was a fun read. 2) As much as some people may want Ericsson traded away, they're ignoring the fact he has a NMFTC! And I can't see him agreeing to be traded to Florida. Or Columbus. Or most of the other franchises people have suggested. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

haroldsnepsts 4,826 Report post Posted March 2, 2012 that's a drag, especially since we don't have Commie now. And there's the added concern of Ericsson being rusty or taking a step backwards after he had been playing so solid this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
