No problem all they have to do is replace Veleno by Davidson !
Veleno waivers AHL
Veleno was always one of those frustrating players, you see the talent in some games, but most the time he just isn’t doing anything, looks like he doesn’t try. But wish the best for him
Bolduc will be fine. Dach and Bolduc are actually doing well. It is Veleno that is holding that line back a bit.
Veleno is hockey tofu.
Bring back gally, velano, Evans line
Veleno always reminded me of Zadina.
Veleno plays hard but does not have good hands and has low hockey IQ. That is what he is.
1 of Holland's great picks!
Red won the trade getting rid of him so Montreal made a mistake signing him
A main reason the Wings rebuild is behind in my opinion . Way too many 1st picks failed. Zedina, veleno, mantha, Ras, svechnikov.
"If he has no brain function on the ice, there isn't anything to melt…" lol, savage. Reminds me of the Futurama episode with the alien brains that made everyone dumb except for Fry, who was already dumb. Good times. Veleno is a hard-worker, but doesn't often make good decisions, and I think that's why we traded him. He needed a change of scenery and a fresh start, and Chicago offered that for him. It was wild to me that Montreal, a team that's going to demand more from their players, traded for him. Veleno doesn't need that, he needs a fresh start and a chance to possibly re-tool and build himself up.
Joes problem is between his ears. Hope Marty can get him going. If not he will probably end up in Europe. I would like to Boldic go to second with Newhook an Demidov an bring up Davidson to play with Dach and Kapanen
Should have Kept Sammy Blais instead
Dont even waste your breath on this dude.
bring up davidson for him get a comp going
boluc sophomore slump
I have seen enough of Veleno. Time to give Davidson a look with the big club.
Don't worry guys, Veleno will play with Evans/Anderson tonight, who then becomes the official 4th line. Veleno is decent at faceoff and defensively, so it fits for now. Gally is back with Dach and Bolduc tonight. So Dach and Kapanen (i.e. Demidov) lines will get extra playing time while Evans line will get 10 minutes or less.
agree, veleno is a puck hog try to make the whole play when theres a pass available. good plays go nowhere is actually annoying.
