I think Cholowski probably should have started in Grand Rapids. Biega shouldn't ever play, but he's a good guy to sit in the press box every game... I'd prefer to keep Seider down for now, but I'd take Ericsson back... 1 hour ago, ChristopherReevesLegs said: AA should be traded at the deadline. Athanasiou's trade value is at an all time low right now, but hopefully he gets going here soon, and we can trade him closer to the deadline... Maybe we should start a "Did Athanasiou Score?"

Zberg was still scoring 40 pts a season at that age. And Datsyuk was scoring at about the same pace as Larkin is now. This kid still has his best years ahead of him. 3 krsmith17, Dabura and Akakabuto reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Certainly he wouldn't be the same person, although that's kind of a given with alternate timeline hypotheticals. 3 hours ago, krsmith17 said: Three hours sleep and alcohol...
