I thank and appreciate and respect him. But I'm done with him being The Guy in Detroit. Let's find someone else. I will never speak ill of my Howie, but hhhhhhhhoooooooooooooo boyyyyyyyyyy we are so ill-equiped to deal with a goalie change unless we trade. The goalie market is never very good too. Bernier is trash Pickard has never been good at the NHL level Larsson is clearly not ready 2 puckloo39 and Learn2LuvIt reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MabusIncarnate 5,343 Report post Posted November 7, 2019 I'd ship him to the Wild with a 3rd and their pick of Abdelkader, Helm, or Nielsen for Dubnyk 1 Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's a secondary player who plays as well as can be expected. Also, ur 25% number is misleading. He had only 4 faceoffs over 9 games. Hardly enough to make any kind of assessment. Erne also has had 4 faceoffs this season and is at 75%. I guess that makes him our go-to faceoff specialist. LOL Your previous post made it seem like just because he won a faceoff, he brings value. Anyone can win a faceoff. ^ case in point above... He's not even particularly good at faceoffs... Everyone: "Ehn sucks!" Ehn wins a faceoff Neo: "that's why Ehn doesn't suck..." Ehn f***ing blows. He's a borderline NHLer, and he won't be playing in the NHL next season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
