If Kasper turns out to be Eriksson Ek, just add a few years to the rebuild.

We need him to be like Zetterberg, not like a third-line guy who is likely to peak at 50 points in the NHL.

Rogle would've likely finished better in the standings if they didn't insist on burying Kasper on the third-line.

Eriksson Ek is peaking at 50 points? So he’s scoring 1 point in the next 17 games? He’s on pace for over 60.

If you NEED Kasper to be the point per game version of Zetterberg, you probably drafted the wrong player.

To be fair, I think we need Kasper to be better than what Eriksson Ek currently is. Good solid player no doubt, but not what you hope for from top 10 selection.

Eriksson Ek a third line guy? Who are Minnesota's #1 and #2 centers?

I think we need Kasper to be a good player. I’m not prepared to place a specific level that we need him to achieve. His impact is still so unclear and the upside is still relatively unknown.

What Eriksson Ek is right now is trending to be a 60+ point, defensive minded top six center who can play on the first line if needed, with likely 3 consecutive top 10 finishes in the Selke (and a chance at his second top 5).

It’s not glamorous how he does it, but needing Kasper to be much better than that is actually a fairly large ask.

This is the most Eriksson Ek has ever been talked about.

Bro, go change that avatar. Since you like defensemen who are bad at being defensemen let's get you a Robert Hagg or Ben Chiarot avatar.

And let's keep in mind that it took Eriksson-Ekk 6 seasons to get there. He was a 2015 pick. (Right after Svechnikov...) And let's also not forget JEE is getting ice with one of the best players in the world right now. (And by that I mean Jordan Greenway, @norrisnick )

I think it's very much in the realm of possibilities that Kasper gets to that level sooner than 6 seasons, but then again I've been pumping this kid's tires since october 2021. My hope is that Detroit gets a really good offensive winger in this free agency or through a trade that pushes some guys down the lineup and Kasper has someone to score goals on his wing.

It was a stylistic comp, that is not to say he can't become a better version of Eriksson Ek.

If Rogle loses the best of three, what is the chance that one or both head over for a few games this spring in GR?

Unlikely imo

It might not be best case scenario but Eriksson Ek is on pace for 28 goals, 62 points and is a selke calibre defensive center.

Hes not a third line guy at all lol

 

[RRhoads]

Looking forward to see if Kasper has another gear in the playoffs. He did last year.

I wish I new who you guys talking about

 

[jkutswings]

It’s a game of finding the most random name that he can conceive and then run it into the ground. MBH can’t accept an easier comparison because it wasn’t him who came up with it.

Kinda telling that somebody posted GTGO with no further explanation, and my first guess was that it was a reply to MBH. It blows my mind that so many people continue to engage rather than just click the ignore button.

Rogle lost 2-1 in OT. Kasper and Wallinder did not figure into the scoring.

I know Horcoff said hes coming next year but if they get eliminated first round, I wonder if Kasper will be coming over now. He'll have less than 60 games played total this year and if he wants to play world championships they dont start until the middle of May.

He could easily get double digit number of games with the Griffins or play some games with the wings to end the year

One can only hope.

 

[odin1981]

If Rogle gets eliminated I would love for him to get 9 games with the big club this year.

Don't bring him to Detroit it would affect our draft pick position negatively

 

[Frk It]

Hoping Kasper doesn’t wear #24 for Detroit.. him and Berggren need to ditch these d man jersey numbers.

Hasn’t he worn #92? That would be waaaay better.
