Thread: Hyman is back
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LoganOllivier</b></div><div>But if you have to move Ceci, and then move Kapanen all to get someone just slightly better than Ceci, is it really worth it? Dermot I think is going to push Ceci down the lineup and that alone is going to make Ceci look better and help the team without anyone being moved in a bad trade.</div></div>

If you move Ceci there is no reason to move Kapanen. And moving Dermott to the right side we would need to bring up a LD and its best to leave sandin down until next year. Grav had some good games and you should never expect the 3rd pairing to produce its more just keeping the puck out of the net. He will also play the body which leafs need. The goal is to free up about 3M from their roster to have spares through the season.

I think its more beneficial to move Ceci now then later in the year

Thread: New Lines
As of right now, Helm DLR and abby have not been on for a lot of goals against. Once abby is healthy I would like to see them back on a line. Helm is producing just fine as a fourth liner and with not being scored on they have looked good together. How you have the first and second line would be nice to see how it works out. Even give Perlini a chance beside Larkin for a couple games to grow some confidence.
AA and Mantha should have chemistry as they are good friends and playing with Hirose will help both get more changes. Hirose need to get back playing with confidence, right now it seems like he is forcing to many plays. Bert and Larkin create a good offense already where perlini may help.

Bert-Larkin-Perlini
Hirose-AA-Mantha
Fil-Neilsen-Erne (when glenny is back he can sub in between Erne or Perlini depending on production
Smith-DLR-Helm (when healthy go with Abby instead of smith)

Thread: bring back rass
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>aedoran</b></div><div>The second line should have Glendening or Filppula at center. They are both very responsible defensively which gives AA and Hirose more room to take chances offensively. While Filppula is better offensively than Glendening, Glendening is much faster than Filppula.

With Rasmussen he had a really rough season because he couldn't play in the AHL because he had CHL eligibility left. So him being in the AHL is as much for his confidence as it is for him to get used to the speed of the pro game. Maybe after 20 games or so.</div></div>

They way the second line is set up is to basically have Glendening play low in the defensive zone but AA take draws. That line hasn’t done anything yet. And I agree switch DLR for Erne would be good but the way the fourth line is clicking I wouldn’t change it yet.

But yes maybe after a few more games if rass keeps it up they bring him up but we will see. They just need to find ways to score.

Thread: how the team will go this year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>aedoran</b></div><div>When Cholowski was sent down last year it was because of his defensive play wasn't up to par. At some point this season he will come up to stay after 52 games he has a good idea of what he needs to do to be a full time NHL defenseman and with the amount of defenseman the Wings have right now there isn't a need to rush him along. I think Svech starts the season in Detroit it's been a rough couple of years for him. I think they made a mistake by not bringing him up for more games a couple of years ago and then he blew out his knee last season. He never let it bring him down or complained about it he just said he needed to work harder and thats what he did with a smile on his face. That's why I really think the Wings are going to give him every opportunity to succeed. Even if he doesn't play up to the player he was when drafted you have to love his attitude and work ethic.</div></div>

For svech's development he is better playing on the top line in GR then playing 5-10 mins a game in the NHL he still need time especially after the injury. yea he has a great work ethic but that doesn't mean they should have him play in the N for that. being wavier exempt, they can easily call him up and down as they wish. Again I could see him coming up near the end of the year or if an injury occurs. but he wont start in the NHL he can play along side Veleno and really get his game developed.
