Thx Ive been a big ras apologist for to long I just dont see it happening for him. He doesnt have the hockey iq to be a top6 player he better add more strength if he wants to be a effective bottom6 player. 1 The 91 of Ryans reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

redw1ngs 149 Report post Posted November 7, 2021 55 minutes ago, number10 said: Soderblom's style isn't too much different than Rasmussen's I'd say. Giant forward with very little aggression in him. Though I think he has noticeably better hands. For a big man he has surprisingly soft mits. Soderblom is also already 240 lbs at 20 years old. He could probably stand to add 5-20 more lbs at his height, but so far he's already a bit meatier than Ras at a younger age. Ras just needs to go live with Jimmy Howard and be handcuffed to Mike Barwis for a year. Both are big men but the skill level is night and day. Well see what Soderblom can do in na next year but i think he will be better then Rasmusen as early as next season. Some will scoff at this but imo Soderblom has top line upside.

Rasmussen was always a pure powerforward. We just need him to be a legit third line threat. Thats the good thing. Ras was supposed to be a 2nd line center, but he has barely panned out to 4th line duty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dabura 12,230 Report post Posted November 8, 2021 Wings fans should be deliriously happy. I certainly am. Why? Because the impossible dream seems to have been realized; YzerMADMAN seems to have pulled a gem from each of the past three drafts. 1. RAYMOND Raymond is a monster – and this isn't even his final form. He's still... As I've said before, he's going to bulk up. He's going to get stronger, quicker, faster, more confident. When the rest of his body catches up to his brain and eyes and hands...look out. "Fluke?" Not really. The eye test, the underlying numbers, and his pre-NHL body of work all tell us he's this good (though, of course, he's probably not a legit 82-point player right now). Even so, I can barely believe he's been this good this soon. Dude leads all rookies in points and goals and +/-. 14 points through his first 13 NHL games. 14 points! FOURTEEN! "OK, yeah, but what about all NHL skaters, not just rookies?" Dude's tied for 6th in the league in points. At 19 years old. (Turns 20 in late March.) We needed a Pettersson/Pastrnak-tier forward. It appears we found one. (Hence needed.) F***ing pinch me. 2. SEIDER Seider's been exactly the player we all know he is. The only question was point production. As with Raymond, we knew the production would come...just not this much this soon. Dude's 3 points off from leading all defensemen in points. "Fluke?" Nah. Like I said, he's been exactly the player we all know he is. He's not, like, riding an unsustainable shooting percentage. His production isn't tied to an Ovechkin/McDavid-tier. I don't think he's really catching teams off-guard. We badly needed a defenseman you could mention in the same breath as Hedman. We found one, and quite possibly two... 3. EDVINSSON One of Edvinsson's teammates – a vet, I think – recently said Edvinsson's the best defenseman he's ever played with. In explaining this, he said something to the effect of "Dahlin was amazing. But Edvinsson is something else." Nuff said. 6 AtlantaHotWings, ely s, Akakabuto and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Staal 8. Stecher I'm fine with Seider and Raymond being somewhat sheltered from amazing minutes this seasons. Glad Jeff is smart enough to play Bertuzzi as much as possible. Really wanna see Names, Erne, and Stephens get more ice time though. What kind of ice time? More 5 on 5? More powerplay? Kinda hard to give them more penalty kill considering ideally your team would spend zero pk time in a game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kipwinger 8,749 Report post Posted November 9, 2021 12 minutes ago, number10 said: 5 on 5. I'd like to see what all 3 can do with more ice time higher up the lineup. A setup like this: Bertuzzi - Larkin - Raymond <------ Just keep these boys together Fabbri - Suter - Namestnikov <----- Names has been cash so far, promote him n see what he does Erne - Stephens - Zadina <---------- Maybe Z can get smthin goin on a lower line, n wanna see how Stephens plays wit a scorer Smith - Rasmussen - Gagner <----- Ras needs to eat I'm fine with these. I see the rationale and it's not like Zadina is playing so good that Namestnikov can't move up. Same goes with Stephens dumping Ras. This just shows our lack of depth though. Add Vrana and a halfway decent 2nd line center and suddenly the roster starts to make sense. The truth is that at least two of Ras, Erne, Smith, Stephens, and (maybe) Gagner shouldn't even be in the lineup right now. 1 Rick D reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
