But I like to see some representation of who's being responsible/ playing defense versus not... Hey you should know I steal all my content around here! Let's see if I can do the work myself...

1984Echoes Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Awesome, thanks! So Johansson is struggling a bit, even despite all the points... And Edvinsson and Wallinder are faring better on that end... I know they're playing against men, so there's that consideration... but to me it's always defense first and a gifted offensive defenseman still cannot sleep on that end... IMO.

buddha Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 +/- is a very incomplete stat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slothfacekilla Posted February 17, 2022 Author Share Posted February 17, 2022 The SHL is a weird league for stats too. Johansson doesn't look fantastic compared to other +/- on his team but I believe he's supposed to be paired with a not great player? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buddha Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 i'm still worried about his skating and hoping he doesnt turn into rasmussen, but having soderblom turn into a player would be a real coup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He went from a beanpole 6th rounder--check him out getting basically over powered by Grewe in his first prospects camp here: to a 240 pound 20 year old leading Frolunda in goal scoring now. Part of that is just growing but it seems like he's put in a ton of time in the gym and working on his skating and turned himself into a legit prospect.

Plus one to him if he makes it all the way to the NHL and can do the same here with the Red Wings as on the videos you're popping up...

lordstanley Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Am watching Olympic gold medal game. A lot of no-names to me, but still a big event. Helsinki holds its breath. 2-1 up,over Russia with 6 minutes to go. Finland has never won gold. Guess who is on the ice for the Finns. Answer? Valeri Fillpula!

gehringer_2 Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 (edited) if Berggren, Edvinsson and Soderblom make the team next season, that will be 6 rookie adds (I suppose Veleno still has rookie status but I'm not counting him) in 2 seasons which would be pretty impressive. Still probably a need to sign a FA Dman for next season, not sure how much more Staal has in the tank.

slothfacekilla Posted March 1, 2022 Author Share Posted March 1, 2022 The Athletic released a ranking of Yzerman's trades so far and I was shocked to read this blurb: "entering Monday night’s games, Gagner’s 35 points as a Red Wing were actually one more than Athanasiou has posted since the trade. Athanasiou has since moved on to the Los Angeles Kings." I thought AA was doing decently after the trade but I guess I haven't been paying close attention...
