We're doing ok win losses wise, but we're not producing goals enough. Relying to much on Howard who won't be able to keep it up all season unfortunately. Defense needs to help a bit with production and Datsyuk and Franzen need to get their game together. Solid defensively, but we need goals to win as well.

Not much bad to say about this team. Rookie goalie Mrazek is doing amazing. By far Billins and Almqvist are the best two players so far. Almqvist keeps this up he'll be put in the 2nd pairing and maybe even 1st PP unit. So far I'm happy with the Griffins.

2013-2014 off season
Roster before free agency, may try something new (spread out the talent). I will try to post the signings and everything in my next post.
I'm set on defense and think I will be for my career because of my AHL team. Forwards, I may make a trade involving Bertuzzi and Samuelsson and hopefully get a better 3rd liner in return, maybe an aging one, I don't care. Maybe drop Helm to the 4th line and have a full scoring 3rd line for Jarnkroks development. I guess we'll find out soon. I'm open to suggestions, but keep in mind I try to keep it as realistic as possible.
Nyquist (84)- Filppula (84)- Zetterberg (89)
Tatar (80)- Datsyuk (95)- Franzen (84)
Helm (81)- Jarnkrok (79)- Samuelsson (81)
Abdelkader (77)- Emmerton (79)- Andersson (76)
Tootoo (75)- Bertuzzi (79)
Kronwall (88)- Smith (84)
Quincey (84)- White (84)
Ericsson (81)- Coliacovo (82)
Kindl (77)
Howard (85)
Gustavsson (75)
Also Marchenko (70) and Jensen (68) will be in the AHL next season. I have 10 defensemen signed for the AHL, may be making a trade or just rotating the bottom pair or something. We'll have a very young defense with Billins, Almqvist, Ouellet, Sproul, Jensen, Nicastro, Marchenko, Lashoff, Backman, and Nedomlel (maybe another), plus whatever the Griffins sign.
