Gurn Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Very few small players make it. Many large players make it. Jordan is a small player, to most of us this means the odds of him being a regular player are lower than if he was 6 foot 200 lbs plus. Talking about small elite level players does not mean Jordan will be one of them. He may have to become a winger to help his chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Karlsson Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 This was really emmbarrssing to read.. I mean Shredder really? and you started off by saying no player can make the NHL unless they're 6 foot 200 pounds, but than you go on to name a bunch of superstars who were under the weight and size that made it.

Dogbyte Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 4 months post -op labral repair is pretty optimistic IMO. I could see a November return, but this is exactly the same surgery as Kesler and Burrows had previously. I had same injury 4 years ago, and wasn't cleared for 6 months. Some soft tissue/joint injuries can take up to a year for complete healing. I realize the rehab for elite athletes differed from my rehab, but I still think Jordan will be back after the season starts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Absent Canuck Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 When a center can make guys like Weise and Raymond look really good, you know there's something there. Schroeder has elite level passing. He just needs guys to get open and he can get them the puck. Giving him better linemates that will help him succeed will go a long ways.

Brick Tamland Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 About to be 23 and a Major shoulder surgery... hardly a blue chip prospect any longer. No where near Corrado, Jensen, Bo or Shinkaruk. He is very close to becoming Steve Kariya, Josh Holden and on and on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the Slot Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 He has 2 more months to gain back his strength. Lets hope he's ready. I really like Schroeds and unfortunately given our lack of size on the wing, it puts him in a tough position. He would be a terrific 3c if he had two wingers with size and experience. Love Higgy and Hansen but need more size on that line. Surprisingly, I know see why Booth is valuable on this team. Overpaid by 1.2 ml but as a winger with size on the third with Schroeder, very useful. Regardless, with torts coming in, guys like Kassian, Schroeder, etc have a new lease on life. Everyone starts from the same place and if they come in and show they can play torts will play em. Sedin Sedin Kassian Burrows Kesler Jensen Booth Schroeder Hansen Guance Richardson Higgins I like those lines. Youth on every line (guys who are key to our future). Playing with 2 vets that will make them better and protect them a bit from errors being catastrophic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robongo Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Watching this made me really look forward to seeing what Schroeder can do this year. He's got such awesome vision and that goal at 1:25, wow too sick. I can really see him cracking 40 pts so long as he's healthy this year playing with Hansen and probably Higgens.

wshdrvvn Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 fickle fans be quiet. i can't stand the attitude towards guys who don't fall into the mold of whatever the flavor of the month is. fact is, schroeder has worked hard and improved every year. he knows what he needs to add to his game to be more of a tortorella player, quit complaining and support the kid.

Drakrami Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Richardson is certainly falling under the radar in this market. He is essentially manny part 2 - LA couldn't afford him under the new cap, the only reason he was set free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batmania Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Yeah,don`t ever realistically assess his talents. This is CDC,after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
