Recalled/Assigned: Johan Larsson "pack your bags and get to SJ"

[Hall of Faber]

The Ducks did the same thing in 05-06, allowing rookies Getzlaf and Perry to get some playoff experience. The following year, Ducks won it all.

With that said, I am in favor of the rookies playing in the playoffs.

Didn't they make it to the WCF that year and lost to the Oilers?

Thats right. Just checked. If the Ducks can make a run with rookies why can't we!?

Never said we couldn't make a run, just saying that the rookies getting playoff experience this year can only help us for the next season and beyond.

Ugh, this call up has apparently affected the Aeros tonight according to their coach.

 

[Northland Wild Man]

Good to see him get a chance.

Shows how much of a game-changer Larsson is.

 

[Randy BoBandy]

Shows how much of a game-changer Larsson is.

Apparently the team was jealous of his callup.

 

[Minnesota]

Apparently the team was jealous of his callup.

They shouldn't be. Larsson's call-up is well-deserved.

 

[Fel 96]

Yup, check the Aeros thread.

Doesn't sound good at all.

 

[Minnesota]

Insert "Yeo's tired of your bull**** video."

 

[Aapo]

Do we get to see Larsson on the second line, please please please please?!?!?!?!

 

[this providence]

Welp, this call-up means we get to be treated to seeing Brodziak play 2nd line AND even more minutes than he was getting in the first place. Yay...

 

[Jarick]

There's been teams that have built off nice playoff runs and then won with rookies (Ducks, Hawks), and there's been a lot of teams that made the playoffs and flamed out (Colorado, Tampa Bay, Philly). You could make a lot of arguments both ways.

 

[keppel146]

Finally larsson back

This move should have been done ages ago to know how ready he really is long term

I wouldnt go that far. But I am happy to see him play tonight

 

[Jaykay]

This thread is so sad now, so much excitement to see Johan play....

 

[tyratoku]

Title should just be edited to say "Nevermind".

 

[Avder]

No title should be edited to read

"Pack your bags and get to SJ Buffalo"

 

[Fel 96]

Safe to close this thread, sadly.
