Prospect Info: 9OA: Nate Danielson

[Ricelund]

Seems the very opposite of what Yzerman would do. I could definitely see him trading for Pettersson with a relatively market friendly extension in place, then maybe one of those guys gets moved but more than likely it's someone from the overload of D prospects or future picks. His most recent interview.. and I'm paraphrasing, he said the only time you come out of a rebuild too soon is when you move your young players and assets before you even start making the playoffs consistently. Then when things go wrong, you have nothing to fall back on. He is here for the long run, not for a quick fix.

Pettersson’s 24 years old.

 

[norrisnick]

Pettersson’s 24 years old.

And in 5 years so will Danielson and Kasper.

 

[JediOrderPizza]

Yes, a trade for Pettersson ally.

 

[saska sault]

Pettersson’s 24 years old.

I'm well aware of his age. He would fit in great if he could got for reasonable assets. What's the cost to acquire him? What are his contract demands? Will he sign? Those are the more important questions I'd imagine Yzerman & Co. would be asking. Don't make a Phil Kessel trade and think your ready for the dance when you haven't even got an invitation. Can't see Yzerman moving his recent first rounders is all, those are the guys that he already is penciling in for our competitive years hopefully coming.

Why do we need to endlessly fantasize about trading away every good prospect we have

Because "Ryder, Halak, and a 2nd" doesn't get you elite talent.

 

[Rzombo4 prez]

Danielson or Kasper to Vancouver in a package for Pettersson (R5).

Is Pettersson available? If not, why are we talking about him?

 

[Pavels Dog]

And the ”Pettersson to Detroit” rumors are where? The ”Vancouver wants Danielson” rumors are where?

 

[Detroit Knights]

Kasper + Wallinder + Next available 1st Rounder

for

Pettersson w/out an extension.

I don't know why people wouldn't do this...I love kasper, I think Wallinder is going to be great, and that 1st would be almost useless with Pettersson's addition. With all that being said...

Rasmussen - Larkin - DBC
Berggren - Pettersson - Raymond
Soderblom - Danielson - Copp/Compher -->Mazur

To have this in 2 years or so? Are we seriously going to sit here and say that this is not a cup contending/deep playoff run top 9?? Then copp contract runs out and you put mazur there for Soderblom - Danielson - Mazur....come on guys, what in the world is truly wrong with this? They are all under 28!!!!! Larkin would literally be the oldest one lmao

 

[OgeeOgelthorpe]

1. Doubtful. I've been beating this drum for a while but star players almost never garner the return that people expect them to.

2. Do you think Larkin's a 100-point player in Vancouver?

3. Fine

4. So what? Get elite players and worry about the cap later.

1. 2 A level prospects for a legit 1st line center? Look at the EK return. It became Stutzle and Norris. Hard pass.
2. Maybe not 100 but 90? Probably. That team isn't very responsible defensively and I think Larkin is a fair bit better defensively than Pettersson.
3. FINE!
4. That's working out great for Vancouver right now, isn't it?

I'll chime in for the number 4 argument....

who have they sought out to get that was considered elite recently.................I respect you too much to assume you mean JT Miller lmao.

 

[RED WINGS STOMP]

Get aboard the hype train everybody, going to be a fun ride!

 

[raymond23]

He has a plus plus skill in his skating ability

 

[TheOctopusKid]

Oh oh! Now that we’ve done the “Trade for him with prospects” vs the “I’d never trade our prospects for him”, I shall introduce the next part of this debate:

“Why trade for Petterson when we can just sign him in two years in 2025? It’s obviously he wants to come here because he is best friends with Soderblom’s cousin.”

/takes bow

Disgusting for Detroit

 

[norrisnick]

I still say Danielson looks more like Larkin's dad than Dylan does.

 

[ZDH]

Yea thats not a cup contending top 9. Not even remotely close. I would take 15 other teams top 9s over that mashup. The center depth is nice, sure but those wingers are trash.

Unless my sarcasm detector is broken which I'm starting to think it is...

This is the internet, tangents happen.

 

[eojsmada]

Danielson looked amazing for his first game. Definitely needs to add some muscle, but his IQ is pretty crazy. Hopefully he can fight for a spot, next year, and be 2C/3C with Kasper.

 

[RRhoads]

Danielson looks a lot closer than I expected. I think he will be up full time next year and skip AHL.

 

[Filppula]

So impressed with him last night; always seemed to be in the right spot.

 

[DamonDRW]

What we've seen with Danielsson is what is missing in our other offensive prospects. A future top 6 player usually impresses from the first sights. You either has it or not from the get go.

That's why there is not much of a hope for Mazur, Hanas, Kasper, etc.

I would argue that Kaspers first game, with a broken kneecap, I did very much notice him buzzing around the ice, finishing his checks, I think he both created a scoring chance and generated a shot, and started jawing after the whistle.

So to your point, Kasper did pop for me the one time we saw him. Mazur, haven’t seen yet.

Yeah very weird to list 2 guys we havent seen and a guy who was noticeable in his one game with a broken knee cap lol.

Those of us who watched Mazur in the AHL came away extremely impressed in that short stint too
