GDT: Pre Season Game 4: Red Wings at hawks 10/1/22 8:30 pm et (NHLN)

[norrisnick]

Veleno needs a crash course on faceoffs if he wants to stick at center. 38% isn't going to cut it.

 

[Ulysses31]

Perron lost that sweetness, hope he's saving it for the regular season

Not really sure how this chart is put together, but it seems like it short changed Cross Hanas. He had a very good game.

Probably because he only played like 9 minutes

 

[Ezekial]

Lucas Raymond is insane.

 

[Preposterone]

Maata seeming steadily more and more like a guy that just knows how to do that defenseman thing.

He’s a legitimate nhl defenseman, which is more than we can say about a handful of signees over the past few years

 

[lilidk]

Bertuzzi is clearly the glue on the first line

At the moment I read it I was fully agree, but now I am going to Raymond. Keep him away from Larkin before his new contract

 

[jkutswings]

Three takeaways from tonight:

1) Great to see Raymond rewarded for all that solid work both on and off the puck. Shades of Zetterberg for a moment or two there, with all that determination.

2) Never a bad time to post a shutout, and never a bad time to do it to Chicago.

3) I'm glad I don't use talcum powder and didn't drink the water at Camp LeJeune.

Suprise Suprise that all the debbie downers of the forum aren’t posting since the wings put up a pretty good game. You know who you are

 

[Go Wings]

I've seen some say Vrana and Raymond are too similar and it might be better to separate them, but they seem to have some natural chemistry and are both elite scorers. Has seemed like Perron and Larkin are a tick off with everything leading to miscommunications. I know it's still early but maybe Perron-Copp-Bertuzzi is the way to go.

Against good teams especially bigger physical ones I would rather have Bert there witg Raymond and Larkin. I think we need some physicality on the top line to create room. Yes Raymond and Vrana have some chemistry but we played against which should finish in the bottom 3 this year.

Yeah those guys suck

Just got home and watched the highlights and wow. I think this season is going to be fun to watch.

Chicago played a shit lineup and Detroit couldn't find the back of the net until the third period.
I didn't see a lot of greatness tonight.
Cossa looked OKay. Jittery. Couple bad rebounds. But really wasn't tested.
Raymond had a great third period and some moments earlier in the game.
Veleno skated like Larkin but can't seem to execute at all with the puck.
Hanas created some nice chances.
Berggren had a couple good plays - but can't seem to get his way to the slot and spends his games around the perimeter, wheeling around the boards.
Johansson looked pretty weak and timid with the puck.
Viro looked pretty good.
Smith had some powerful shifts early.
Larkin looked totally out of it. So did Perron.

Veleno needs a crash course on faceoffs if he wants to stick at center. 38% isn't going to cut it.

He was out there for 10 faceoffs against Toews. Guessing a lot of losses game right there.
He won 48 percent of his draws as a rookie. That's pretty good for a rookie.
I want to see him carry the puck and make passes while he's cruising around the ice, or skate fast to open areas so he can get clean shots away.

 

[Geezer WC]

Why does Newpower play on the left side? I know nothing about this guy.

 

[SpookyTsuki]

Cossa is big, man.

 

[brett89]

is perron playing? guy has been invisable.
good looks with vrana with raymond and larkin
seider playing physical
hanas has been impressive

veleno and fabbri might be out of jobs

 

[Ricelund]

Raymond reminded me of Datsyuk last night.

 

[TheMule93]

We have so many options for our top 6, and really, our top 9. Having more than 2-3 players who are actual offensive threats feels pretty darn good!

 

[dalem177]

Raymond reminded me of Datsyuk last night.

Yeah I loved Datsyuk's goals and Datsyukian dekes, of course, but the things that made my eyes bug out was just that it wasn't safe to let him near you if you had the puck because often he could just... take it from you. Didn't always turn into a scoring chance, but if Raymond can bring a little of that back to the ice, yikes.

In his draft year that was one of the thing that really caught my attention. Not only was he your typical smaller ultra skilled winger but his 2 way game and his forechecking ability was at a level you rarely see in these skilled young players. Now, at the NHL level, it seems like he'll be able to use that trait of his to his advantage once again. The remaining thing for him is confidence in his abilities and showing more consistency from period to period. He often start the games slow.

 

[Pavels Dog]

Hopefully they give Cossa a full game, nice to see him look solid so far in half games though.

Raymond reminded me of Datsyuk last night.

That first assist was 100% Datsyuk.

Yes it was, It was all Lucas with the nice feed to Vrana for the first goal.

 

[RedWingzz]

That 3rd period by Raymond was great. He's got all-star potential for sure. No doubt in my mind he'll be a point per game player at some point during his career.
