Edvinsson should never go back down until our season is done. And then next year with Detroit full time
Recalled/Assigned: Simon Edvinsson recalled

This. Despite my criticisms of Lalonde, Detroit does not yet have the horses to change their system. The Wings are currently 8th in goals for and 22nd in goals against, so it's not shocking that he doesn't want the defense to take MORE chances.
Once the group of Holl/Petry/Maatta/Perron/Sprong is replaced by guys like Johansson/Wallinder/Kasper/Danielson/Mazur, I think it'll be much easier to let the horses run when appropriate (and recover when things go sideways).
Then explain to me why I keep seeing Maatta go for slot redirects, Petry in good shooting spots, and Chiarot carrying the puck behind the net like Nyquist during OT.
I actually agree with you, but I laugh at how the 3 defensemen that I want to see activate more offensively (Mo, Ed, Ghost) are the ones who stayed with their heels glued to the blue line a majority of the time, and the ones I want to almost never touch the offensive zone are the ones constantly below the hashmarks. Walman does alright at finding his chances.
It's confirmation bias, all of our D activate we just get mad at certain ones doing it and it makes an impression that you remember.
how bout A Jo in for any dman not names Seider or Edvinsson.

He never goes.
The clear signal already was scratching Määttä before him.
Seider had to play 220 NHL games before they were ready to promote next young defenceman.
I hope it doesn't take the same amount for Edvinsson to promote the next one.
There can't be too many kids at same time.

Plus he prefers players with NHL experience, so it'll wind up being Simek. Combined with ZAR and Czarnik, you'd think this team was trying to tank, lol.

He looks great, I expect big things from him next year in GR.
Ed and Albert should both be up next year no excuses. Cut bait on ghost, Petry, and if possible Holl. Mattaa as your #7, holl as #8 if you can’t move him. Bring in a top 4 RH shot D to replace Petry (pesche would be nice)
Walman- Seider

Chiarot- aljo

One subplot of the Grand Rapid Griffins’ strong season has been the pleasing development of defensemen Antti Tuomisto and William Wallinder.
While Simon Edvinsson and Albert Johansson receive most of the attention in the assessment of the Grand Rapids’ defensive prospects, Tuomisto and Wallinder are demonstrating their NHL potential. The 6-foot-5 Finn Tuomisto has five goals and owns a plus-7 plus-minus. The 6-foot-4 Swede Wallinder shows three goals and is plus-1.

“They’ve progressed really well,” Detroit GM Steve Yzerman said earlier this month. “Both of them are really good. Antti’s a right shot, William is a left shot. Different players but they’re both big. Antti’s big and strong, physical, great shot, passes the puck really well. William probably a little bit lighter. Tall, lanky guy, really good skater, moves the puck really well. Probably a little bit more active in the rush offensively.”

I read this craz stat about Ed today from this meh site so take it with a grain of salt. They said that he only been on the ice for 1 5 on 5 goal against since he was recalled. It seems a bit of a stretch does anyone know for sure?
If that was our defense for this whole season, we’d probably be comfortably in the playoffs
Throw a 1A/ Lyon tandem and we challenge for president's trophy.
In his 11 games in march/april he has been on the ice for 7 5v5 goals against.

To be fair, Seider has been bad lately. Not sure why.
Edvinsson looks realgud though. We should be very happy about that. Not sure who will be better between him, Power and Hughes from that really deep 2021 draft.
