DickieDunn 2,571 Report post Posted June 24, 2017 Lots of teams passing on Vilardi, wonder if they know something that's not public knowledge?Rasmussen is big at least, might have looked better without being hurt. Who knows how any of these kids will look in 4 years.I would have rather had Pettersson thoughSent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If so, could you mail me what you're smoking because my stuff isn't strong enough.

Good at Alot of things but not great at anything. He's not even good at a lot of things. He's a hundred feet taller than his peers, he hangs around the net, he puts in easy goals. That's Michael Rasmussen. He's not a high-skill player. He's not a playmaker. He's not a naturally gifted goal-scorer. He's not a two-way force. He's big. That's it. I mean, I'm no NHL amateur scout. But, from where I stand, at this moment in time, this is an awful decision. Even if Vilardi or Liljegren isn't available and you have your heart set on Rasmussen, TRADE BACK A FEW SPOTS AND DRAFT HIM AT #13 OR WHATEVER. I hope I'm wrong. I hope Rasmussen becomes a franchise center. But, realistically, he's going to be another bottom-six grinder. 4 Detroit \# 1 Fan, romagoth, derblaueClaus and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
