That last play he simply outworked the defender and even drew penalty. 

Yep, he looks really solid. He generates scoring chances like a machine.

Johansson looking strong tonight as well.

Aaaaaand Kasper with a breakaway. That’s like four scoring chances he’s created. 

What can we get for Veleno ? 
 

Kasper continues this play going to force a hard decision 

Or send him,mazur,danielson to GR and make them play A LOT of high pressure min vs 4th line time in the show

Maybe a 2nd but probably a 3rd unless we package him with something.

I’m torn about this too. As good as he looks I almost like giving him another year in GR to be THE GUY. Like Edvinsson last year. I think it rounded out his game and he’s a much better player today because of it. If Marco can develop a little more finishing he’s going to be a star.

Nate Danielson is not ready for the NHL. It’s a big jump from junior to the NHL and it’s clear he needs to get up to speed in the AHL first. He’s just a hair behind on every play that develops. 

Which should have happened last year but those silly rules that stopped him

Mo Seider also looks really good in the offensive zone so far this preseason. He's hanging on to pucks and making plays and I like what I see. All the analytics dorks are going to lose their marbles when his offensive numbers (that they said he wasn't capable of) explode once he gets top powerplay minutes and isn't getting buried in the defensive zone.

You cant read to much into preseason games but if Kasper continues playing like he has in the first 2 games he has to make the team. Both games hes played with most of the top guys and both games hes been the best player on the ice. He can create plays out of nothing and seems dangerous every time he steps on the ice. Of course he needs to convert on more of these chances but thatll come.

Uncle Fester was noticing in case you don't want to read the article

         Young forwards Marco Kasper, Nate Danielson and Carter Mazur were bright spots in Lalonde's mind, injecting energy into a Wings team that needed it most of the night.

         "They were some of the most impactful players because they were competing," Lalonde said. "They were winning battle and very noticeable. They showed well."

our 4th line is the all kid line.....LOL

Our 4th line was Berggren-Kasper-Mazur. Danielson centered the second line with Kane and Tarasenko. Danielson looked okay, and had a few nice shots on goal, but overall he wasn't as noticeable as the other three (who played together).

I was talking about regular season ...sell off Veleno for 2nd/3rd and run with the kids...

Griffins playing Crosby, Malkin, and Letang tonight so they’re scrambling. Sodorblom looks like his skating has improved, Lombardi is noticeable at even strength against the real Penguins (good sign), and Johansson is a really solid defender too.

The Red Wings broadcast team is doing a deep dive on Albert Johansson during intermission. He’s a profoundly ugly dude. Looks like a hockey player.

Thought I heard Mickey say they will be making decision on where MBN will play at end of preseason

MBN said whatever they want 

love that attitude 

I thought he was for sure going back to Sweden. But he may have changed his mind. He was going to be playing for Skelleftea, last year’s SHL champion. Unfortunately they suck an egg so far this season, losing to several low level teams (including a team from England lol) in the European Champions League.
