Will Simon Edvinsson play top pair fulltime? ’25-’26 player previews pt. 4



Simon Edvinsson had an incredible first season with the Red Wings, leading the defense in 5v5 points and taking on huge minutes. Will he be able to play on the top pair fulltime? Or will the teams lack of depth force him to pair two again? We also preview Compher and Talbot in this player preview episode. #LGRW

  1. Edvinsson: I expect continued growth. I'd like to see fewer "rookie" mistakes, more defensive responsibility, and 5-10 more points. I really want him and Seider to be the top pair. It sucks Stevie couldn't get us help on D. I'd also like to see him take pp2 from Gustafson.

    Compher: yeesh….. that was bad. Well, on the bright side, I don't think he could produce less. I'm hoping he's our 13th forward.

    Talbot: He had a really good start to the season last year. Then, driven into the ground. If Gibson and Talbot are both at their best, we have a solid tandem. I don't know if "solid" is good enough with this defense in front of them. I know there wasn't much available, but I can't believe there was NOTHING Yzerman could do to upgrade the top 6 forward and top 4 D.

  2. Y's failure of not getting a proven d-man will hurt any defense we have and any goal tending we have. Hopefully Coach Todd can help with growth in all our d-men. We have 4 older, albeit slower, on the back end and that doesnot help anybody. LGRW

  3. Real question, Who would be mad if the Wings embraced the tank for McKenna? Personally, I wouldnt be. Tanking for a shot at dude would be way better than making the playoffs to get rekt in the first round.

  4. The coaching staff has to play Edvinsson and Seider as a the top line pair.

    The incompetence of the front office is borderline criminal.

    Let the chips fall where they may, enough is enough. 🤷🏻‍♂️
