kipwinger 8,754 Report post Posted January 12 (edited) If the offensive upturn is sustainable I would be comfortable riding with Larkin/Copp/Compher/Veleno until Danielson is ready. I’d like a Cozens, but if we keep playing this way he isn’t a “need” in the way a defenseman or two would be. Edited January 12 by kipwinger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think he's comfortably a top-4 D really soon. Edited January 12 by mackel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For now. Larkin was on Zetterbergs wing at the same age. 38 minutes ago, mackel said: That's true... but I really like Johansson... I think he's comfortably a top-4 D really soon. Yeah he’s been really good the last couple games. Smart of McClellan to recognize Jahansson and Edvinsson had played a full season together last year in GR.

kipwinger 8,754 Report post Posted January 12 Lalonde took “tie goes to the veteran” to an absurd degree. McClellan elevates Berggren, Veleno, Kasper, and Johansson and the team is better for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The longer this streak and the better the team and a lot of individual players look... ya gotta think that makes Lalonde less and less likely to get another HC role.

kipwinger 8,754 Report post Posted January 12 His system was so reactive as well. I like that we make other teams defend now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TLGTrico 660 Report post Posted January 12 It doesn't seem to matter who's playing with Larkin and Raymond right now. 1 kipwinger reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree, but I think this is good for Marco because he’s been dragging losers to scoring chances since he and Berggren were setting up Tarasenko a billion times a game. Then he and Ras were making Motte look like a star for a minute there too. Glad to see him get rewarded for doing the work.

kipwinger 8,754 Report post Posted January 12 Aaaaaand just like that Ken Daniels announces that Kasper is getting credit for the first goal. Screen the goalie and good things happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kipwinger 8,754 Report post Posted January 12 We are starting to look just like the Kings did under McClellan, but all our guys are 5-10 years younger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kipwinger 8,754 Report post Posted January 12 Anybody who thinks Detroit didn’t draft any “elite talent” during this rebuild clearly haven’t watched Seider and Edvinsson defend. Simon Edvinsson is better at being a defenseman than Conor Bedard is at being a center. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paul Woods kept saying the entire roster is on the same page now and playing like that is way more fun and easier This upcoming road trip will speak volumes for the team 1 kipwinger reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
