LeftWinger 5,058 Report post Posted July 17 Are we ready for this thread? Too late, ready or not, here it is. My prediction is Red Wings win 10 more games this season for 20 more points totalling 111. Good for 2nd in the Atlantic behind Florida. Toronto is a close 3rd. Boston and Tampa can't recover from their loses and fall to wild card hopefuls. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kipwinger 8,641 Report post Posted July 17 I'm recycling two from last season. 1. Edvinsson will outscore Seider at even strength. Last year I stipulated that they'd both have to play 50 games for this to be true and Edvinsson (inexplicably) didn't meet that threshold. 2. Rasmussen will score 20 goals, 30 assists and blossom as a top power forward in the league. I made the same prediction last year but failed to account for the fact that Ras was rehabbing a broken kneecap all summer and not working on this game. This year he's got a full summer and I expect bigger things out of him. and my third bold prediction... 3. Ondrej Becher is top five on the Griffins in points per game despite starting the season in Toledo. 1 LeftWinger reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mackel 728 Report post Posted July 17 1. We get Rutger McGroarty from the Jets for a package featuring Bear-Grin and a 25 lotto protected 1st, sliding to 26 if necessary and a 2nd in the opposite year. 2. Holl is our 3rd best defenseman. 3. We finish with the same point total but miss the playoffs by a larger margin. 4. Mazur is a 2nd half standout. 2 kipwinger and town123 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You’re pretty spot on with these so far. The defense isn’t “much improved” but it has improved slightly. But we have seen major change in the defense corps and we do have four rookies on the team. Well done. 1 Rick D reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's interesting... it's a move that won't salvage this season but might prevent players from regressing or stunting the growth of young guys. Also we need a coach to tell Rasmussen to play like a man or sit in the press box. 5 kipwinger, Scott R Lucidi, AtlantaHotWings and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do this INSTANTLY. Columbus won't though. Jiricek is only 20 years old. All of our defensemen outside of Moritz Seider have ZERO NHL games experience at age 20. This cat isn't excelling at the NHL level right now, but in 2 years, he will be. He could use a change of scenery though. Columbus is the new Phoenix. Players fizzle out in that organization. If this guy is available, we should offer a 1st, a 2nd, and Wallinder. I think we may be able to grab him with that kind of offer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
