slothfacekilla Posted September 28, 2022 Author Posted September 28, 2022 I didn't realize Soderblom's brother was in net for the Hawks. 1-1, Soderblom put a nice shot on and Erne put in a rebound Quote
slothfacekilla Posted September 29, 2022 Author Posted September 29, 2022 (edited) I haven't been glued to the game with work going still, but it seems like Edvinsson is making some good plays out there. I've liked what I've seen from him and Elmer. edit: he had a giveaway in the neutral zone like right after I posted this of course, got it out of the zone at least...

Last year in Canada DAZN had the Premier League, Champions League, Nations League and Football Championship plus NFL Sunday Ticket, all for C$25 per month. Pretty good deal. But now Premier League got snagged by Fubo for a separate $25/mth. Edited September 29, 2022 by lordstanley Quote

buddha Posted September 29, 2022 Posted September 29, 2022 edvinsson has also taken multiple penalties. if he makes the team its because he passes the puck well or they want him here to be around pros. i havent seen anything that makes me think he's nhl ready. not yet. still plenty of time. Quote
buddha Posted September 29, 2022 Posted September 29, 2022 through two games, i'd say zadina, kubalik, berggren, and soderblum have been impressive. the young defensemen really havent. mcissac, johannson, and edvinsson. Quote

slothfacekilla Posted September 29, 2022 Author Posted September 29, 2022 I feel like Seider really spoiled Wings fans regarding other defense prospects. Edvinsson looks to me like a kid who is still processing the NHL speed and with the smaller ice surface. He's trying to make the Wings a year younger than Seider did. Did he make mistakes? Definitely. But he also showed really nice instincts in his own zone at times and has the toolbox to make the plays. I was loving what I was seeing even if it wasn't perfect. Some time in the AHL should do him wonders but I feel like expectations are way too high or people are being way too harsh on him. 1 Quote

buddha Posted September 30, 2022 Posted September 30, 2022 soderblum getting time in all three games so far. giving him a long look. still no vrana... biakabatuka getting a long look too. but no bednar or cossa. Quote
buddha Posted October 2, 2022 Posted October 2, 2022 much better game tonight. dominated the hawks. controlled the whole second period and made the hawks look stupid. raymond with a couple great plays. great backchecks leading to goals. vrana with a great pass to set up raymond for his goal. its just preseason so it doesnt matter, but this was their best performance so far. much better than their last two outings for sure.

gehringer_2 Posted October 3, 2022 Posted October 3, 2022 (edited) LaLonde quoted about Veleno in today DetNews: Quote He was in the right spot on the defensive side of the puck, playing maybe a little more cautious but playing on the right layer of the puck, but was allowing extended zone time. "We'd like to see him go harder and get more kills in the defensive zone. This could be Blashills epitaph for the whole team for the last couple of seasons.

lordstanley Posted October 3, 2022 Posted October 3, 2022 Red Wings' nightmare outcome for 2022-23 season: Offense performs like the Tigers', defense performs like the Lions' Red Wings' playoff contender scenario for 2022-23 season: Offense performs like the Lions', scored against like the Tigers Quote
gehringer_2 Posted October 3, 2022 Posted October 3, 2022 (edited) I'm really curious to see what the Wings look like defensively under Lalonde. Under Blashill, they played like they were the slowest skating team in the league - sooo soft and cautious in their own end it was hard to explain short of them all (maybe excepting Bert, Larkin and Seider) believing they were going to get beat if they played any more aggressively - i.e. they either couldn't or at least didn't have the confidence they could skate with the other team. If they actually do have enough speed to play successfully like a 'normally' aggressive team, it's going to be a huge indictment of what Blashill was coaching. If they really don't have the speed and end up constantly getting beat, Lalonde is going to be one unhappy camper! Edited October 3, 2022 by gehringer_2 Quote
buddha Posted October 4, 2022 Posted October 4, 2022 they lost tonight to pittsburgh, but they played really well. outshot them. got robbed a few times by pitt's goalie. they continue to look really good in the preseason. much better than last year. bert played tonight, so that's good. if copp can ever come back they might be a pretty interesting team this season.

He still does some stuff that makes me smack my forehead but he's really turned himself into a solid all around player. Wearing the A in preseason was pretty cool for him too. Quote
slothfacekilla Posted October 6, 2022 Author Posted October 6, 2022 Lines in practice today, an exciting mix: Bertuzzi-Larkin-Raymond Perron-Copp-Vrana Erne-Rasmussen-Soderblom Kubalik-Veleno-Zadina Berggren-Suter-Smith Chiarot-Seider Maatta-Hronek Edvinsson-Lindstrom Oesterle-Kampfer Nedeljkovic/Husso Quote
