Prospect Info: 2022 8OA, Marco Kasper

[Coach Reggie Dunlop]

I would be shocked if he didn't. Griffins need a desperate injection of scoring and Marco could help get Danielson scoring again and lift the monkey off his back. Lombardi is still out, so having a speed tandem of Kasper and Danielson 1-2 punch at C is something they haven't had for 2.5 months with Lombardi being out

GR play tomorrow, Friday, Saturday, and next Wednesday. Keeping Marco in form for Detroit and boosting GR I think is a win-win

You really run the risk of Marco falling off a cliff during our play off run then. The rookie wall is real and he’s already going to be close to hitting it. I don’t think he should play in GR. Let him rest. But the farm team standings doesn’t matter a ton to me.

Even if it's one or two games with rests in between I'd be okay with that for him

Two games sure but playing all 3 games over the weekend isn’t something I’d want personally. Stevie Y may disagree though.

He's pretty good, but he's no Dalibor Dvorsky. /Wheeler

 

[RED WINGS STOMP]

How many other teams are sending their first line winger back to the AHL during the break?

You send him down and some AHL goon wrecks him and takes him out of the lineup?

The risk isn't anywhere close to worth it for the couple game tune up. How much, if any improvement is Kasper truly going to get?

It’s for cap space. Yzerman has done that his whole time here. They’ve been very strict when it comes to young prospects and moving them back and forth for cap space. Doesn’t make much sense to me either but that’s why they do it.

Paper transactions is one thing and i understand why, but some are suggesting he suit up for the Griffs this weekend. Not worth it if you ask me.

Why , they need help, been winless in the while.

They are likely to have a bonus overage into the 25/26 season due to Kane's bonuses (and perhaps even Edvinsson and/or Kasper's ELC bonuses). Maximizing cap space this season will minimize the overage that carries into 25/26.

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

Marco Kasper has now been sent to the AHL 15 times this season. Why?

A look at something that came up today on social media and I wanted to discuss a bit more.

I understand why they do it, but it is poor form for an employer. Kasper is losing a lot of money because of this.
