2024 Training Camp Roster & Schedule

Boy if even ONE of these first round forwards actually delivers, that would help our group tremendously

Set my expectations for Johansson. Will he be as vanilla, boring, and as easy to push around as Gustav Lindstrom? Will he bring something more to the table?

His skating and IQ far outstrip Lindstrom in those categories. He has size concerns, which are legitimate, but if he can prove that he can overcome that, he’ll be several tiers better than Lindstrom. I think the way he sees the ice and reads plays is special. How that translates to the NHL level is yet to be determined.

I know Danielson is the hype pick to make the roster, and Kasper is now getting some run after the past couple days, but if one kid makes it, it’s still gonna be Mazur, ya’ll. Sorry (@heyfolks ). The 1st rounders are gonna have to wait. Carter or bust.

Let's see if he is Lil Bert 2.0.

MUCH more mobile, patient and competent with the puck on his stick

Can't speak too much to the defensive side until I see it in the NHL. I am worried about his strength/size

He’s smaller but way more physical than Lindstrom. Also way faster and realgud on the puck. I think he could be Sam Girard with an edge.

Let's just run a third line of Danielson, Kasper and Mazur. Then everyone would be happy.

 

[Nut Upstrom]

If you think Mo would get the hook for lack of shooting, the job certainly won't go to Gustafsson who hasn't scored a PP goal since 2019...

I agree with you. it would make so little sense, but....
This is still Alex Tanguay running the PP. That means there's a very high likelihood that happens, no matter how little sense it makes.
More likely, he bounces them back and forth as is his way, don't let either of them develop chemistry until settling on mostly one of them 2 months into the season.

What about Berggren? Or we going to trade away some regulars

Probably the player I’m the most excited to watch. Really hope he proves me wrong. Could become the creative player this team desperately needs to help fill out the bottom half of the line up.

soggy crouton brain Walman

TIL the recipe for griddy salad.

Bultman just mentioned Kasper as being one of the stand outs.

I thank you for posting this...and simultaneously wonder if it physically pained you to string those particular words together.

Yeah he absolutely could (and I hope he does cause a 6'7 with his hands still could be special) but I do see his line placement as a sign of what Wings brass is currently thinking.

You don't put a 3rd year AHL guy that you think has a shot at the NHL anytime soon that low in a training camp lineup. He is officially fighting against the odds now, which I didn't feel like in his first two camps. Up to him to show he deserves a better look.

Yep. He needed to get some run in the NHL before Mazur, Kasper and Danielson all arrived because this year he really fell down the pecking order. I have no expectations now

Do you guys think Erik Gustafsson will constantly play on the PP? If so, the 1st or 2nd PP in your opinion?

I think its too early to say. Ghost ran with the first unit last year, and I think that was partially a way to save Seider for his tougher minutes. But Seider is a year older now, and maybe Edvinsson helps shoulder some of that load.

His skating and IQ far outstrip Lindstrom in those categories. He has size concerns, which are legitimate, but if he can prove that he can overcome that, he’ll be several tiers better than Lindstrom. I think the way he sees the ice and reads plays is special. How that translates to the NHL level is yet to be determined.

Hes got that modern two way dman that plays minutes type build. Elite skater, solid all around and throws the body. Not really a comparable guy to Lindstrom who was an old school, stay at home type
