Recalled/Assigned: Soderblom recalled by the Wings

[theYman]

I was waiting for this sometime this season. Guy has skill but also can take the body. And he's 6'8 250. He's fairly quick too for his size.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

I know it's likely not the case but I wouldn't mind swapping Soderblom for Rasmussen.

Hopefully the kid could show Ras how it's possible to be that tall and not be the softest guy on the team.

and be thirty pounds heavier.

Hopefully in a few years we can have a rating system for how bad an opponent got crunched based on a player's name:

Level 1: He got Kaspered.
Level 2: He got Seidered!
Level 3: OMG! HE GOT ELMERED!

Or maybe Level 3 Soldered…or maybe just Blommed…

Konstantinov'd

although I still think Howed is the ultimate

and be thirty pounds heavier.

Looks like he’s in for Joey Velvet, so maybe Ras Centering L4

Be interesting to see who sits. Kane came back but is he banged up?

Fischer was the 3rd on that line..guessing Joey is sitting?

 

[Our Lady Peace]

Good for him, he's at the top of his game right now so it's the perfect time to see if Elmer is truly transformed and ready for the NHL

 

[PelagicJoe]

As long as Kronwalled is the highest level possible

I think impaled (Vlad Konstantinov) would he the highest level, then Kronwalled.

There are several good ones, but I'll leave this one here for anybody too young to have seen him play.

The hit couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

I feel dumb now. You are both correct!

 

[Coach Reggie Dunlop]

Anyone saying ras doesn’t hit is silly. Ras does hit, he has some of the most hits on the team. The problem is he still doesn’t know how to use his body as effectively as he should, and he gets knocked off the puck far more than someone his size should. It’s not all about hitting, there’s a lot more to being physical than just hitting.

 

[SantosHalper]

Pity is sickness, wreck them Elmer!

Some of you really don't know how soft the rest of the team is do you?

 

[KJoe88]

I hope he’s our miracle.

I hope he all of sudden scores four goals and turns into the Hulk.

I'm aware. but pound for pound Ras is by far the softest guy on the team.

DeBrincat plays with more edge than him.

Who is saying Ras doesn't hit? I'm saying he's soft, along with all the things you're saying.

HIs hits aren't hard, he gets knocked off the puck easily, he doesn't use his size effectively, he plays with no edge to his game.

DeBrincat plays with more edge than him.

Kane could be 100lb even and it would still be him, pound for pound.

And Holl isn't much smaller than Ras

Nice to see elmer finallyyyyy get a call up. Hope he plays great tonight and moves up a line and can play with some players with actual skill

 

[ColdToiletSeats]

Was he ever bad for us? I always thought he looked good every game he was called up for. I'm excited I hope he stays, I love watching him play.

Same. Hopefully plays with some shifts with decent linemates. Much rather move tarasenko and go with a elmer compher berggren 3rd line rest of the way
