The Detroit Red Wings played their final preseason game Saturday, and it was the final showcase for the three rookies who really stood out at camp. Axel Sandin-Pellikka and Michael Brandsegg-Nygard certainly did, both having multi-point games. On Sunday, speculation began to swirl their efforts would be rewarded, as Erik Gustafsson and Justin Holl were placed in waivers. If they clear and are sent down this would mean their roster spots would be available. #LGRW

Those 2 veterans were terrible
Good I hope they retire
#37 should get waived also!!!
No surprise from me on the waves, just super happy!
Good show my guys!!
Finnietastic!!
More talent on the team!
We are rolling 4 good lines.
Haven't seen that in a while!
The team is really fun, I'm looking forward to the new season.
ASP seems like Ghost, third pair, since the defense isn't the best, although you can see an improvement. I think ASP will replace Seider in PP1 after 15-25 games once he's settled into the NHL.
I don't want to see Chiarot with Seider, please… Ed or AlJo will take on the role better than Ben Chiarot.
Burger and Ras never convinced me with their performance in the preseason games.
Seider/Chairot, ASP/Edvinson and Johansson/JBD with Hamonic as the 7th. Seems really simple.
The question is: what happens when Danielson is healthy? MBN plays 3rd line and 2nd PP?
MBN and ASP. Those fellas look pretty damn good.
This is pretty exciting for the first time in years.
Scotts reacting to Brian saying we’d be disappointed to lose Holl was priceless 😂
Great game from the boys super stoked to see the team come together. We’re looking really competitive and I think we crack playoffs this season and then next season we start really going for the cup. I want Chariot gone but out of all the defensive vets he’s probably the best so it gives McClellan time to figure out what he wants to do.
The way I see it. ASP is better than Gustafsson so upgrade. MBN is better than Berggren another upgrade. And there’s no way docker is worse than holl. So all an upgrade to me. Love it
D will be 1. Seider/Aljo 2. Edvinsson/ASP 3. Chiarot/whomever. It is not rocket science. I dont understand how you two can be the lead of the podcast and seem so "surprised" Comment section has been saying all three (ASP Nygard and Finnie) would make the team while you guys are disappointingly beta milktoast. Zero hot takes or real insight other than send all young players to the AHL regardless of how good they are. Really disappointed in you two these past 3 weeks. Do you even read your own comment section?
Super stoked to get this news. At the same time, why wouldn't we expect this kind of move? Detroit's whole emphasis has been on building up the farm system. The only way that works is to actually bring the youth into the roster. Takes a little courage, but that's the whole point, right? Great news! Wish the best for the young guys and the team! LGRW!
My hot takes over the next year or two.
1. Edvinsson will end up being better than Seider (skates better and has a better shot); ASP will end up being better than both of them and run the power play by the end of next season. No disrespect to Seider but flowers to the talent of the other two.
2. Nygard will be on 2nd line with Kasper by next year pushing Kane to retire or be 4th line power play specialist
3. Danielson will force wings to finally get rid of Mr. no compete Compher within a month, Copp will be 4th line center which is still too high for that injury prone non skater.
4. The most interesting debate will be between Finnie and Nygard for 1st or 2nd line LW
5. Bergers and Ras are the next two to go…Mazor and maybe Lambo are already better.
6. Wings will be cup contenders within 3 years
This is a very rare chance that doesn't come very often, the leafs should seriously consider claiming both Gus & Holl.
Stevie,
I love you.
By the way, it's been a long, frustrating, and ultimately unsuccessful audition — i.e. it is time to cut ties with Martin Frk…..opps, sorry, sorry, I mean Jonatan Berggren…always get the two confused. Silly me.
Hopefully, you'll get a 6th and a bag of pucks in return.
That's your next step.
Glad I could help!
If ASP looks really good by N. Years, I would love to see Seider/Edv, Johan/ASP, Chiarot/Anyone else.
This is the only way that the organization is going to fully develop the young players have to play in the NHL! Now We ( All Wing fans )
Must be patient and take the good times and know that these kids will have bad games. But that's how you learn and Hopefully the Toddfather and coaches can help them grow too!
I want the younger players on the roster
They earned it all the way through
Believe in the Yzerplan and the Toddfather 🏒🥅🏆
Anyone notice Erickson get an intentional elbow to the jaw from Knies and nobody did anything. Right there that tells you the wings are going to be the same old same old soft team to play against. So the favs are going to have to watch the softest team in the league get ran and pushed around night after night.
If the NHL was a soccer league Yzerman would be the best GM in the league.
