They are shit and will end up trading Bobby Ryan

>>51985531

Hard to predict. They'll definitely need goaltending to come up huge if they want a shot at wild card. Otherwise Bobby Ryan will be gone by the deadline.

EA is such a bad company they make the Laffs look like an incredibly well-run franchise with all-star players that makes the finals without fail every year and never goes more than 5 years without winning the cup.

The only thing more certain than the Wings making the playoffs is that EA's hockey games will continue to suck ass.

EA is so full of shit even goons like Lucic are ashamed to be affiliated with it.

Bettman has more honesty, charisma, work ethic, and devotion to the sport than EA, and he opens franchises in fucking Las Vegas.

When the >rags get tired of being made fun of for being the >rags, they just remind themselves they aren't EA, and they don't feel so bad.

If Canada never won Olympic gold and no US franchise ever won the cup, both countries would still be infinitely more successful than EA.

Reminder the next team to bandwagon is Zemgus Girgensons and the Ruffly Sabres.

Because he was making millions in the KHL.
Why would anyone grind it out in the AHL when they have the option to make money in Europe and still land a one way deal in the NHL when they want one?
The Blose have been trying to sign him for 3 years.

Because if he was actually good, he would excel in the ahl and make an nhl roster.
But yeah, playing seven games and getting one (1) assist is good.

>>52006791
Every single goalie has bad games every now and then.
You trolling is shit tier even by canadian standards.
Riksman was always streaky but when he was on his game, he was good.

>>52006852
>Riksman was always streaky but when he was on his game, he was good.
Yeah when he played against inferior chinks in finland, he did good.
He got BTFO so hard he quit the team in an actual relevant league.

GTFO

>>52006949
I can't help it if your shitty "prospects" can't last long in the ahl and haven't played an nhl game despite being 26

>>52006839
This is really simple.
Would you rather develope making millions or develope making peanuts?
If you answer the latter, you are legally retarded.

>>52006879
He's been getting BTFO almost every season everywhere.
He just isn't that good of a goalie consistently.
You should also note that the AHL salaries are shit tier, so if a player feels he isn't close to breaking the NHL, he will bolt if he's smart.

>>52006984
If he was good, he would make the nhl, and get paid.
He's not, (until proven otherwise in a relevant league) so he had to bolt to the KHL where they pay third rate shitlords big money

>>52007126
How many 19 year olds make the NHL right off the bat?
He played those games after a full SM-Liiga season + relegation rounds.
He simply went there to play some playoff games, he was never going to play in the AHL long term.

KHL fan is here.
Have you ever watched KHL?
I don't know how you decided about AHL as 2nd league. Some KHL's top teams can kick ass weak NHL clubs. I am sure that Metallurg Magnitogorsk, Salavat Yulaev, CSKA, SKA, Avangard, Jokerit and Lokomotiv can be stronger than Buffalo, 'Canes, Florida, Edmonton, Calgary, Vancouver and, maybe, some other teams.
If you don't play in America doesn't mean that you are bad player.
If there are would be KHL vs NHL games... I don't think that we would lose all of them. Maybe, one day these leagues will be equal. But it's a question about politics and life in Russia, too. Americans and canadiens can't get it, but you don't understand fucking high level of life of your countries.
KHL is 2nd league of the world. You shouldn't laugh on it. Kuznetsov, Nichushkin, Yakupov, Bobrovsky, Yakupov (yes, he had bad season, but he had an injury, too), Orlov, Tarasenko, Emelin - they wouldn't be good in NHL without KHL's career.
Do you know that some young players (even drafted) sometimes prefer KHL to NHL? It's not only because of money. Yes, we have too big salaries, but didn't you? These guys know that hockey is their life. They want to play with best. THEY DON'T WANT AHL. THEY DON'T WANT ECHL. Why the fuck I should leave my family, friends, girlfriend? Because of AHL career with pathetic thoughts and hopes about NHL two-sided contract?
Sorry for bad English.

He did things the smart way.
He is 26 years old, a multi millionaire, not a single season riding the bus in the AHL and a one way NHL contract in the pocket.
A straight up boss.

>>52007193
>How many 19 year olds make the NHL right off the bat?
All of them that don't suck dick.
The average age of an nhl player is 27.8 years old.
He is going to be 27 within a few months of playing in the nhl.

Canashits confirmed shit tier in hockey knowledge.
Protip:
>almost no one makes the NHL as a 19 year old

>>52007321
Most good players make the nhl in their early 20s.
Lehterä is 26 and will be 27 within a couple months of playing his first game.

>>52007385
Lehterä is making the league at 26 because he refused to sign a contract with the Blose, not because he wasn't good enough.
Can't you get that installed in your thick skull?
He was happy playing in the KHL, without the unstable situation in Russia, he or Kontiola would have probably never signed in the NHL.

>>52007437
He refused to sign because he is dogshit and knew he couldn't make the nhl as evidenced by his incredibly poor play in the ahl.
He could be three years out of his entry level contract and making way more than the KHL will ever pay him.
But instead like a coward he hid in the babby leagues.

>>52007527
KHL is like European Soccer, in each league only the top 3-5 teams are competitive every year, and those teams buy up all the talent, making every other team irrelevant.

>>52007553

We prefer word "football".
It's not true. SKA has most of the best european/KHL/ex-NHL players but they suck dick every year. They were beaten by 8th team last time.
Torpedo, Metallurg Novokuznetsk (yes, we have two Metallurg in one league, it is okay for soviet teams), Avtomobilist, Dinamo Riga, Dynamo Minsk - they don't have players like Kovalchuk, Radulov, Sobotka and others, but they can fight with strong teams.
You just don't live here. We have only a few of teams who really weak: Vityaz, Amur, Neftekhimik, Severstal.

Only very few players make the NHL as an 18 year old.
You have to be drafted by an absolute shit team or be close to a generational talent or a physical freak.

>>52007807
No, they became pretty boring team. They had moved to the Podolsk from Chekhov, by the way.
And their biggest stars are Afinogenov and Lisutin (good goalie).
