GDT: Preseason: Leafs at Wings

Ericsson

 

[Wood Stick]

Ericsson my ****ing god.

 

[Yemack]

Yeah, but this year we're doing 0% new future. So that tells me either we don't have any real difference makers in AA or Mantha or this team is done rebuilding.

What's the rush? Mantha aint beating Vanek to lineup on opening night but he's got years to get better and make our team better. Besides, he's prolly on the short list when Wings need F from GR.

 

[NervousPerson]

It looked to me Brown went down on Mrazek pretty easily.

 

[Claypool]

I don't think Ericsson actually gives a **** anymore. Dude just goes out there and messes around for fun.

 

[Eggberto]

We may catch a break as it looked like he was pretty in Mrazek's face before E, but sweet dee E made it so much worse.

Edit: We'll nope. E is just an idiot.

 

[NervousPerson]

Whatta dummy.

I'd like this team to have a set plan on how to get back to cup contender status. As it is now, we have no plan (or desire, I guess) to do that.

And he wasn't put on waivers because

So larkin is not considered future? How about Mrazek? Ouellet? Sproul? You sound like the entire team is 34+ Nyquist and Tatar are players who are as much future as they are current.

This is the final year in the Joe and I wouldn't be surprised if Kenny didn't want to tank while the celebration of our grew history was going on.

Holland will pay him whatever he wants

I love Errorson

First, Jesus Christ, again - who said tank? Secondly, I said 'new' future. Larkin and Mrazek were here last season, we need a steady flow of new young talent injected every year, that's what 'rebuilding' means. Instead, we signed a bunch of 30+ year olds this offseason and we're not having any young players added to the starting lineup.

 

[Shaman464]

This team just is so mediocre. They are going to live and die based on goaltending, nothing else stands out.

 

[Frk It]

I love Errorson

If anyone thinks Ericsson is one of our 6 best defenseman, I'd like to hear why.

 

[Heaton]

It's kinda scary that we're getting outplayed by the worst team in the league last season at home with our full lineup in.

 

[Shaman464]

AA needs to learn not to shoot there. Better to cycle back and kill the clock on the PK.

 

[korrowan]

It's kinda scary that we're getting outplayed by the worst team in the league last season at home with our full lineup in.

Pretty sure we are missing our 4th liners. Also having Ericsson on the ice is worse than playing with 4.

 

[TheMule93]

Our team has been directly involved in every one of the leafs goals

First one went off marchenkos skate

2nd went off Dekeyser

3rd was Ericsson dumping a player on mrazek

 

[Mijatovic]

Yeah still not seeing how Oulette is getting the nod over anyone, even E.

 

[korrowan]

Who is worse. Pulkkinen or Ericsson?

 

[NervousPerson]

Good D by Teemu on Matthews (made up for that dumb centering pass).

 

[Heaton]

Pretty sure we are missing our 4th liners. Also having Ericsson on the ice is worse than playing with 4.

That's true, but I'd hope our 4th line isn't the difference between winning and losing against the Toronto Maple Leafs.

 

[Yemack]

Who is worse. Pulkkinen or Ericsson?

Pulk just saved a goal coming back hard so Pulkkie +1
