Underrated goalie. Won me my fantasy league last season. Jealous he's not an Oiler.
How is he perceived by most Red Wings fans?

I think the Wings are in tough now for the next decade. Oilers and Wild will be more of a challenge. Oilers always bring their best against the Wings too. A lil nervous?!?
Over the years.. Edmonton has regularly used Detroit as an example of a hockey city that isn't very attractive to Free Agents but gets players to come there because of the winning culture. I think you will see more free agents wanting to play for Edmonton now because of the bright future and young stars they get to play with. Especially Canadian/Euro players..
Exciting times.
The Red Wings have one of the best GM's in the business so you don't have too much to worry about.

Inconsistent. When the Wings play great, he tends to lose them the games by letting in easy goals. When they play like ****, he tends to play godly and win games for them.
Just my impression of the 40 or so Wings games I watch per season.
I agree with this, and that's all he needs to be. As Red Wing fans we've seen all it takes is a hot goalie. When Jimmy is 'hot' he's just as good as the rest of them.He is good enough to win a cup with I think.
Good not great.
IDK if i share the opinion of most Red Wing fans.
Howard...an average to above average starting goalie. I won't say he's very good. Kid just seems to be unable to be at his best in the playoffs. I think he could end up being a very good goalie. But I don't see him as elite or top 5.
He's a UFA after this year? Difficult contract for Hoilland.
