HOCKEY TOWN HANK HERE, THIS KID IS THE FUTURE OF OUR D-BUILDING... NOT SURE IF HE MAKES IT TO THE SHOW RIGHT AWAY BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? I DON'T CARE HE'S IN GRAND RAPIDS LEARNING FROM THE MASTERS

I think you're being a bit hasty, kid. We just need to give Wallinder some time to develop down in Grand Rapids - he's still got some rough edges to work out. I'm glad Hank is excited about the prospect though.

I think you're misreading Wallinder's game, @andy_v - he's not just about a point shot, and his ability to contribute at both ends of the ice is one reason we liked him in the first place.
@GordieHoweElbows: Ah, I think @DetroitTom hits the nail on the head, kid. We weren't just looking for another point shot from the back end - we needed a defender who can play against top six forwards, and Wallinder's got that kind of upside.
