Bill Berzeench 310 Report post Posted January 8, 2016 He's awesome. The sharks announcers were all over his junk tonight. "Wait til you see this kid, Dylan Larkin." #71 is the best player on the Detroit Red Wings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GMRwings1983 8,803 Report post Posted January 8, 2016 With how the central looks, I doubt they face each other John Scott will have played more All Star games than Zetterberg and as many as Crosby. How weird is that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toby91_ca 620 Report post Posted January 8, 2016 Weird yes, but technicality obviously. Didn't Zetterberg play in the 2007 game though? I consider Crosby a 10-time all star though, i'm sure he'll pass Scott someday in terms of all star games played. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amato 3,210 Report post Posted January 8, 2016 John Scott will have played more All Star games than Zetterberg and as many as Crosby. How weird is that? Hahaha that's glorious Has Zetterberg really not played in one though? Somewhat surprising if true. I think that plus Crosby only playing in one might be more weird than the whole John Scott thing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jasper84 333 Report post Posted January 8, 2016 Larkin has quickly become one of my favorites and he's been excellent for us this season. But to come here and label him as an elite already is a little ridiculous and jumping the gun. I agree with those saying that he'll be elite in the future, I can see it. I just can't label him (or any other rookie this season) that today. With that said, I'm rooting hard for this kid to win the Calder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's hilarious. In the words of Dany Heatley, "He's a f%$king all-star"!!! So what's your opinion now Jonas? Still elite? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Larkin is strong on the puck. That's not his problem. His problem was pure scoring. Besides, he's 6'1 and weighs 190 at a very young age. That's a good size in today's hockey considering he'll naturally gain more weight by the time he hits his prime. Edited June 13, 2017 by kickazz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeftWinger 5,131 Report post Posted June 13, 2017 Larkin needs to be handed the reigns of a top 2 center, with great linemates. AA-Larkin-Tippett Sounds great to me! 3 BadgerBob, marcaractac and krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeftWinger 5,131 Report post Posted June 13, 2017 ....But, of course without Tippett, I'd still like to see Larkin as #2C with AA on his Wing. His other wing I'm not sure, but maybe Svech if he starts in Detroit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I want to see Mantha-Larkin-AA......let them gain some chemistry now so in a few years they could be a good top line, or a great second line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
