oh yeah baby im early early lets go Red Wings
Could you do a Cole Hutson analysis video? He has been dominating recently.
ASP fantasy card owners in HUT chose wisely lol. Dude started at an 85 OVR and is now sitting at a 91 after that hatty.
Can't remember when I have seen a Junior so comfortable with the puck under all situations. I was thinking of who it reminded me of that could almost be standing still and yet create space and or opportunity with checkers coming at you. Can't imagine he won't make the team right out of Junior. Thanks for this video. I'll try not to miss another Sweden game!
Wings had Ghost on the half wall to start last year and he went on a tear, i think they'd use ASP the same way not up top
Can NOT wait to see how this kid plays in Grand Rapids. One season on NA ice before joining Seider and Edvinsson, and Detroit's D-core is going to be lovely
Let him develop the right way and he’ll be a stud
How would you rank Pellikka, Parekh, Yakemchuk and Willander
Lets Go Red Wings!
If Detroit is a train wreck for this year and next season and finally gets some draft lottery luck. Detroit's future line-up could look like this in 2029-2030 season:
Kasper Mckenna Raymond
Mazur Larkin Buchelnikov
Lombardi Danielson MBN
Finnie Plante Kiiskinen
N.D. Nilsson
Edvidsson Seider
Schaefer ASP
Buium Tuomisto
Wallinder
Cossa
Augustine
I don't think prospects should be over ripened. That is a huge flaw of the detroit red wings and has been for years. I do however think that they should be ripened, just not over ripened ! So yeah, play it by ear in camp. Play in GR if necessary. As soon as he looks comfortable moves on to the n h l asap !!!
Just remember rafalski came into the league and then played himself right back out of it. Had to go to Sweden for a few years.Then finally came back when he was older. Small player similar skill set. Let's hope that that's not the case with this young kid. Red wings definitely need him now!
And Montreal drafted Reinbacher over him, michkov or Leonard. Crazy to think about
That Hronek trade is finally starting to work out for Detroit
He needs time on NA ice before hitting the show
Probably the closest prospect to Quinn Hughes since the 2019 draft year.
This could fulfill that second line pairing RHD for LHD Edvinsson who is more of a blue line defender.
PP QB is ASP's #1 priority being that right hand shot and speed to pinching in on the puck when opponents try to clear the puck.
Trade him to the sharks with a second round pick for future considerations. Seems like the best move for him!
Push him straight to the big leagues like you did with Raymond and Sieder.
Some Wings fans have this notion stuck in their head that ASP needs to work on his defensive game alot. I pay to watch SHL games and I keep telling them his defensive game is not an issue at all. The only thing he needs is a bit more size which can be fixed easily.
You aren't bringing him up to play shut down. You're bringing him up to be an absolute offensive nightmare for opposing teams. He's also a rotating quarterback and that one of the best one timers I've seen from a defenseman.
The kid could make a jump to the NHL next season. Whether it be opening night or mid way through the season. He has shown north american ice is not a problem for him.
Man we are about to have the best right side of defense in the nhl seider and asp sheesh 2 top 2 potential guys its like when san jose had burns and karlsson
Props to the seamstress who has to lay that baller of a name out 😂🎉
The way he controls the puck reminds me of Kane.
time to come west young man. should go right to detroit in 25/26 but maybe a half year stint with GR. should stand out nicely with Seider and Edvinsson and the eventual fourth guy in the top two pairing. fun prospect who has more size than height which will help him. only scratching the surface here.
