I’m sure Danielson “did a lot of great things” but wasn’t rewarded with any points.
His lack of production is annoying, but nothing to be alarmed about.

Obviously if next season he’s still not putting up points there’s cause for concern. But we aren’t there yet.

We need him in Detroit, not Grand Rapids next season. I am hoping to see a jump in his play. It's still early, so I am hoping he starts kicking it into high gear.

It is such a great position to be in. I have been a fan of the Wings since the early 90s, and we have never had such a good goalie prospect as either of them. In the long run, we won't be able to keep both, but hopefully one of them can fetch a real good return.
He doesn't get alot of respect, but Jimmy Howard was a very good goalie prospect (and a decent NHL goalie until he discovered Donuts).

I don't disagree there. I think he was great for us, and he got a lot more hate than deserved.

I just think Augustine and Cossa will be better

True, it's possible. If I recall though, Howard was considered a high end goalie prospect and pretty respected around the scouting circles in his draft year

He is also third all-time in our 100 year history in goalie wins. I think we hit a home run with him.
Yes Howard doesnt get the respect he deserves. Jimmy suffers from the same issue Cleary does. They hung around for 2-3 seasons too long and that tainted fans memories of them.
