G Rudy Guimond - Moncton Wildcats, QMJHL (2023, 169th, DET)

[Hazy Little Thing]

I assume his previous thread was lost in the embarrassing crash.

Having a great season in the Q after a very rough last year and start of this year in the USHL.

15-0-0 record
1.52 GAA
.948% SV%

Obviously playing on the best team in the Q certainly helps. But has far superior stats than their main minutemuncher.

He seems like he's figured some stuff out. Cedar Rapids is a bit of a mess without much notable talent on their roster the past couple years, helps going to Moncton. Will be interesting to follow once he gets to the NCAA

Really solid goalie I hope he plays the playoffs for Moncton because he's a lot better than Rousseau IMO.

Detroit's goalie scouting seems to be pretty good the last few years.

For the most part, I'd agree. Still pretty early on Guimond, we'll see how he does in the NCAA. Cossa and Augustine should be solid NHL goalies, Gylander is decent depth. I never understood the Landon Miller pick this past draft, but if that's your biggest goalie draft whiff in the Yzerman Era, that department is doing pretty damn well.

Have a feeling Augustine is going to walk. Won't want to sit behind Cossa. They'll have to pick between the two which one they want to invest time into as their future starter. Guimond could be that next guy to be in the AHL though.

I'm not going to pretend he's going to be anything good or bad... but he's got good size and those numbers are pretty wild. He's made himself into someone to keep an eye on for sure

The kid from Michigan is gonna walk? The league is becoming more and more a 1A 1B goalie tandem. Detroit won’t have to pick who is 1A for 5-6 years.

Right, the kid from South Lyon who grew up a Wings fan and plays for Michigan State is going to walk...

How many good teams actually have a 1A 1B set up? How many of those had both goalies that came through the team's farm system at roughly the same time?

They aren't going to spend time trying to develop both Augustine and Cossa. Like I said, they can decide to go with Augustine. I don't know if they will. Either way Guimond can be the new guy to stick in the AHL for 4 or 5 years.

You're just proclaiming things without any evidence to back it up whatsoever. Everything the front office has said and done thus far indicates precisely that they will try and develop both Augustine and Cossa. I don't even like our front office FWIW lol.

Guimond is more likely to run out the clock to UFA and sign with someone random, get sent to the A or Coast, and who knows after that.

Lmao no chance of that happening bud. Wishful thinking.

 

[GoBoltz56]

They'll stagger cossa and Augustine

They’re already staggered by two years. Guy is making no sense, as if you can’t develop two goalies at once.
