Mitchmac33 103 Report post Posted June 19, 2013 I know a lot of people were mentioning the Nyquist/Andersson/Dekeyser/Lashoff journey, but how about the journey of Petr Mrazek. Watching him play it's tough to remember this is his first year pro. Seems like last year he was playing those games in the ECHL not this year. Dude had some unbelievable saves at the end of game 6. 3 LidsFan, Hockeymom1960 and Rick D reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rick D 351 Report post Posted June 20, 2013 I know a lot of people were mentioning the Nyquist/Andersson/Dekeyser/Lashoff journey, but how about the journey of Petr Mrazek. Watching him play it's tough to remember this is his first year pro. Seems like last year he was playing those games in the ECHL not this year. Dude had some unbelievable saves at the end of game 6. He made a sequence of saves all right in a row with about 5:30- 6:00 left in the game. I said to myself, this kid might have just won the game for us. I hope he can continue to improve, and keep getting good game time like he is. This guy is hopefully going to be awesome in the future for the Wings. 1 Hockeymom1960 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Travis 576 Report post Posted June 21, 2013 Rumor has it that Blashill will interview for the Stars' opening. Oh please tell me that's a joke. Good Grief... They finally get GR on the same page and now one of the people in charge (Nill) goes to Dallas and will try to steal away the coach (Blashill) too? F'n Dallas... Lindy Ruff hired as head coach of the Dallas Stars: http://www.cbssports.com/nhl/blog/eye-on-hockey/22497561/lindy-ruff-hired-as-dallas-stars-coach 1 Hockeymom1960 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nightfall 871 Report post Posted June 21, 2013 Blashill is expecting to be with the Griffins next year. To that I say, thank god. He is the best coach Grand Rapids has had in years. I fully expect our prospects to be better so long as we have a good coach and good developmental people such as Chelios, Maltby, Draper, and Osgood at the helm. 1 evilmrt reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
