GDT: #82 Blues/Wings: "REAVES IS ON THE TOP LINE NOW, I THINK."

[Vladys Gumption]

Find it funny how Detroit had the same injury issues through ought there season and they didn't just curl up in a ball and cry. Guys like Nyquist, Tatar, Glendening, Sheahan, Jurco all stepped up. We are quote on quote the deepest team in the league yet with what talent? Rattie and Jaskin obviously aren't ready yet so other than that who do you have? Cracknell, Porter, Aucoin? Look at the studs up top and compare them to this bunch. Teams that draft well beyond the first round tend to be able to dodge bullets like this much better yes yes i know Detroit finished lower than us. Just making the point when they had everyone go down their scoring didnt come to a COMPLETE STOP and their prospects that came up didnt look lost...

Wanna know the big difference? Detroit had 5 or 6 NHl ready prospects waiting to step in. We don't.

Wanna know the big difference? Detroit had 5 or 6 NHl ready prospects waiting to step in. We don't.

That's because Schwartz, Tarasenko, Petro and Cole have all graduated and Jaskin and Rattie aren't quite ready.
