Ekmanc 586 Report post Posted April 21, 2015 We've said that before yet Canada rarely has any success at the WC. Two years ago they had Stamkos, Giroux, Staal etc and finished 3rd or 4th I think. 1 MrazekFanBoy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amato 3,210 Report post Posted April 21, 2015 if they don't win it will be embarrassing, if I remember right they have freaking Giroux and Todd is coaching them? Jesus that's a Olympic roster. Yup, they have Giroux in addition to Matt Duchene, Jordan Eberle, Taylor Hall, Nathan MacKinnon, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, Ryan OReilly, Tyler Seguin, Jason Spezza and whoever gets knocked out of the first round of playoffs. The last time they won was 2007 though, that's why I said they look great on paper ha. Wonder if Erie will be done in time for Connor McOiler to join his future teammates Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

amato 3,210 Report post Posted April 22, 2015 In reality though it probably is between Howard/Bishop & Jonathon Quick. I haven't heard if quick has decided either way if he'll play or not..? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimmyemeryhunter 2,747 Report post Posted May 4, 2015 Soo Babcock and Holland are going to the worlds to talk to Dylan Larkin about his upcoming decision on whether or not to go pro.... Could we be seeing a fast track to the NHL? 1 krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

krsmith17 7,191 Report post Posted May 6, 2015 ... Am I missing something? It doesn't say anything about him challenging for a spot in Detroit next season... does it? Or is that just what you expect to happen if he does well in this tournament?... I think there is about a 0% chance he has any chance of making the Red Wings next season. I'm thinking, as well as hoping that he plays another year with the Wolverines next season, and then plays a full season with the Griffins in '16-'17 and becomes a full time Red Wing in '17-'18. I think the part on Mantha right after is a main reason why you should not rush these kids. A lot of people wanted him fast tracked to the NHL last season... I personally hope he plays another full season down in Grand Rapids again next season, and then makes the Red Wings full time in '16-'17. There is absolutely no reason to rush these kids. We've been doing it the right way for quite some time now, we have more forward depth than we've had in years, why rush them and chance stunting their growth? I'm still concerned that rushing Jurco was the wrong decision and his play has suffered because of it... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimmyemeryhunter 2,747 Report post Posted May 6, 2015 It says nothing about him in Detroit. Ive read other articles where it says he has to choose Ann arbor or grand rapids, but I've also seen stuff saying he has a chance to make the team since we haven't had a prospect like him... in blah blah Idk. I just have high expectations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimmyemeryhunter 2,747 Report post Posted May 11, 2015 Mickey Redmond was talking about mike Babcock coming back, and he said something about making this team better now instead of a few years from now and he specifically mentioned Dylan Larkin. I think the wings are seeing him as the 1st line center replacement. I can't see i disagree with that sentiment, he looks like a stud. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
