Or, from what I understand, Kronner Jr (Jrette?) will be Kronwalling his way into the world any minute now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Richdg 267 Report post Posted April 23, 2014 Getting Ouellet and Sproul a game each in the PO's would be a good idea. Let them both get a feel of what top level hockey is all about. Then they both would know what they need to work on as they develop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Players always seem to have kids this time of year, haha. Guess they get busy in the off-season doldrums. This is encouraging for us if Babcock is willing to make a change. Oullet literally couldn't be any worse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not that I really care about player's personal lives, but I'm curious...is Datsyuk re-married? I don't think Kronwall has a wife. I think it's a babymama, not wife. Ansar Khan said girlfriend.

puckloo39 5,686 Report post Posted April 23, 2014 they need to stop reproducing and produce in the playoff games. Seriously, best wishes to all, and this explains a lot that a couple of our remaining top players seem to have no idea what they're doing out there at times. 3 jthiel86, FireCaptain and HadThomasVokounOnFortSt reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crashnburnluder 385 Report post Posted April 23, 2014 Doesn't sound like Ouellet will be playing. NHL.com The Red Wings also recalled defenseman Xavier Ouellet from Grand Rapids of the American Hockey League and he practiced on a pairing with Brendan Smith. Ouellet, 20, made his NHL debut this season, playing in four games. Babcock also said Ouellet's inclusion was simply to give a rest to veteran defenseman Niklas Kronwall, whose wife is expecting a baby soon. but on other news this made me excited... nhl.com Detroit Red Wings forward Henrik Zetterberg practiced in full with the team Wednesday and said afterward he will talk to team doctors before deciding about a possible return to the lineup. not getting my hopes up for either playing tomorrow though.

This is not just to add offense, cause those to are getting severely exposed in their own end. Someone in the GDT last night said that it feels like kindl and lashoff are out there all the time, it's because they are. They get hemmed in their own zone resulting in really long shifts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Playmaker Report post Posted April 23, 2014 NHL.com's Dan Rosen... "I have to feel ready to play. Today was a good step in practicing," Zetterberg said. "We're still saying round two, but we all know we gained a couple of days. I can't really say anything now. I'm just happy I had my first real skate and now we'll see how I feel in the morning." Zetterberg skated on a line with Todd Bertuzzi and Justin Abdelkader in practice, according to Detroit coach Mike Babcock. Forward Pavel Datsyuk was absent, tending to his wife, Svetlana, who recently gave birth to a baby girl. Isn't she the ex-wife? Recently meaning today? Geez reporting sure is shoddy these days. I get not wanting your personal life out there, and no one is obligated to discuss their personal life, but I don't get the not saying if you're married, single or what not. What's the big secret?
