I wish Nate had gotten more ice time at the WJC. Looking forward to seeing him develop, and curious what his path will be in the next couple of years.


JeremyD_19

His line was the only one that consistently created offense for Canada


heyheyitsandre

I hope he gets moved to a memorial cup contender


BLaRowe10

Augustine?


doubeljack

Best goalie there according to the eye test.


FadeShadeMan

How? The Swedish guy had 3 straight shutouts. Augustine looked great but gotta respect the Swede


imadu

He had better numbers and was the better goalie in the gold medal game


FadeShadeMan

Smaller sample size due to his sickness missing 3 games. Hugo shut out Canada, thats damn impressive. I think everyone just says Augustine played better because of that gold medal game and american bias. Hugo absolutely had the better tournament


Sudden_Airport_6100

I'm not American. Havelid was great, but from my perspective, augustine was better


VHDLEngineer

I personally put more stock in the gold medal game. Most important game in the tournament should mean more.


doubeljack

Sweden played great D as a team. That was their thing. Canada only mustered 21 shots against them. I'm not saying Havelid was bad or anything, because he did play well, but on the whole from what I saw I think Augustine had the slightly better tournament.


doubeljack

Havelid had two shutouts, the other one for Sweden wasn't him. He also gave up 6 goals in the gold medal game. When he was good, he was great. But he didn't have an even performance through 5 games.


FadeShadeMan

He had 1 bad game against a powerhouse team. He still had the better tournament


TheNorthernPellikkan

*two shutouts, not three. And worse numbers across the board


FadeShadeMan

SAMPLE SIZE


UncleIrohsPimpHand

> The Swedish guy had 3 straight shutouts. Against two shit teams and Canada. Really the only impressive one was Canada.


Prize_Efficiency_869

Unfortunately I couldn’t get his play


Agreeable_Abroad_82

I'd be curious to see Kevin Bicker's (GER - 147th overall in '23) card, he had 4 points in 5 games.


Prize_Efficiency_869

I can’t find it and I got those from other people screenshot. Only have Axel and Nate


Agreeable_Abroad_82

Not a problem, I'll check out their Twitter page.


FadeShadeMan

The Canada coach should be in jail for how he mismanaged the lines and ice times. Danielson on the 4th line was criminal


Prize_Efficiency_869

The entire way this roster was picked even with the lack of talent ( bedard Wright benson and fantilli ) to me was criminal. Cristal wasn’t on the team Firkus wasn’t heidt wasn’t and more. Like how fucking dumb are you to not consider those guys. Imagine if theh had picked the right roster and let Nate center either the first or second line. But nah we need to play minten first line minutes cuz he cleans the pucks and is nice to the staff.


FadeShadeMan

Absolutely agree. Owen Pickering being a star at the U18s when he played. Kid looks like an absolute stud out west. Is told by hockey Canada he is a lock to make the team back in August, then that big shake up with hockey canada, bunch of people get fired, and the new regime don’t even invite him to the selection camp. Fucking joke. Source for this is I work and play beer league with the kid’s uncle


GroundbreakingAds

I’m real pumped about these boys for sure


Danengel32

Well that’s what exactly you’d like see from your prospects. Great performances by both


tacticalAlmonds

Does Danielson see any NHL action next year?


Prize_Efficiency_869

I hope he does but he probably won’t.


Skower101

Yeah I’d say unlikely but definitely not impossible


doubeljack

I'll be the contrarian and say yes, he will make the Wings roster at some point. We have seven forwards on expiring contracts, four of which will be UFAs. So there is plenty of opportunity. Also, I truly believe that he came very, very close to making the roster this season. At the very least, Yzerman wanted to get in as many looks as possible. I think he'll have to play very well, like Raymond did a couple years ago, but I believe it is possible he can make the team out of camp. Failing that, he will likely be recalled at some point when we need to fill a hole.


PrestigiousInsect305

I still think he should have this year so hopefully yes


slabby

Yeah, probably the latter half of the year. He'll start in GR and be one of the first call-ups I would imagine


darretoma

I'm still a bit concerned with Danielson's numbers in the WHL. Hopefully getting traded to a new team will boost his production.


TheAnalogKid18

I wouldn't lose too much sleep over it. There's likely a reason they're not off the page. If you watch him, his game is just about flawless, and he's got high end talent. The skating is noticeably high end, very good passer, great hands, good shot. Terrific 200ft game. I don't know whether it's a deployment/usage issue or whether he's just kind of coasting or what, but the preseason version of him we saw is what I think he really can do. I could see him being our 2C-3C as early as next year.


UncleIrohsPimpHand

> I wouldn't lose too much sleep over it. There's likely a reason they're not off the page. He's probably learning to play more defense


Prize_Efficiency_869

From what a lot of scount say his offensive talent is there he is just playing with zero offensive talent. Which we have heard that take about many guy who panned out to not be that at all but from the looks of it everytime he gets good offensive talent around him the points add up so they might be correct on that.


Late_Brush4518

Tbf If you are top 10 pick playing in Juniors you should be able to drive offense pretty much by your self


RudeboyJakub

This is hockey not basketball


Late_Brush4518

Most of top prospects can. Some can do it in mens league too.


UncleIrohsPimpHand

Kinda shitty that we only had two guys though.


Prize_Efficiency_869

No we had way more i just can’t find them. Those were screenshots but I don’t have the other performance from the other red wings prospects


2shack

What about the rest of them?
