coldply123 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Good news. Hopefully he gets into shape soon and theres not too much rust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil Dan 56 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I wonder if Pesonen gets in. Be interesting to see how he does. Supposedly he can shoot and move, which following Devils logic means he will be playing on the 4th line with Barch. (I keed, I keed!)

EdgeControl Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Deboer still line juggling like crazy hopefully zubes comes out 100%, I would think ice skating is a huge no no for wrist rehab!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATLL765 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Interested to see Pesonen. Is he another Pikkarainen or will this be something that's interesting past minute two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck the Duck Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Brodeur can't come back soon enough. Zubie too for that matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATLL765 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Interesting. Anyone think this will go better than Pikkarainen did? Pesonen posted similar numbers in the SM-Liiga to what Pikkarainen did before NJ brought him back over to NJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroGravityFat Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 we have a very different system that rewards control on the boards and forecheck, i think he will be very successful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mouse Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Interested to see Pesonen. Is he another Pikkarainen or will this be something that's interesting past minute two. We can only hope he demonstrates the same brilliance as Pikkarainen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Interesting. Anyone think this will go better than Pikkarainen did? Pesonen posted similar numbers in the SM-Liiga to what Pikkarainen did before NJ brought him back over to NJ. Pikkarainen was much older - when he was Pesonen's age, he was doing much worse in the AHL. The key for someone like Pesonen is skating and positioning - so long as he isn't Sestito bad with the puck, he can stay in the NHL if he skates well and is in the right place. Pikkarainen's skating was poor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxpower Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Pikkawhatever's everything was poor. Pesonen is supposed to be a much more skilled player, not a D-team power forward. Whether it translates to anything is another thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarpathianForest Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Pikkarainen wore #17. He was sent packing around the time we were working to get Kovy. Once he was gone I knew Kovy was coming to NJ. Sad, but that's the only thing I remember about him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck the Duck Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 How can anyone forget this great moment in Devils history? http://video.nhl.com/videocenter/console?hlg=20092010,2,494&event=N.J793 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
