Jeremy Laura: Detroit loses an exciting preseason contest to Chicago 6-4
- Jeremy Laura

Wow just freaking wow.. what a game by the young guns tonight. Raymond has blown my expectations away by miles… it’s very early on in these guys careers they have plenty of bumps and bruises to go through but this looks to be the highest level of talent I’ve seen this team have come through the doors since zetterberg and dats..

Whelp.... I turned the channel after the first period completely disgusted. Came back later and it's 4-3... kept watching after that. Did not predict any kind of turn around like that on the Wings' part. The power play finally looks like it's starting to click. That rookie giveaway be Newpower gave me some heartburn... but those things will happen with rookies. Glad this team showed some heart and kept working to stay in the game.

On a side note... people claiming that Raymond should start the season in GR don't have much of an argument left as the preseason keeps rolling along... Heck.. If Holland was still in charge he'd be in GR until he was 24.

Looks like the best acquisition Detroit made this summer was Alex Tanguay!

Although the full story on why things didn’t work out in the Motor City might need a bit more time to uncover, slowly but surely Svechnikov is inching his way toward a two-way NHL contract — and quite possibly a spot in the opening-day lineup on Oct. 13 when the Jets open a three-game road trip against the Anaheim Ducks.

No, his spot is still not assured but after the Jets are expected to announce a number of cuts and get down to more manageable numbers leading into the final two exhibition games, Svechnikov remains very much in the mix.

Where exactly he fits in remains unclear but it’s apparent that Svechnikov has caught the attention of Jets head coach Paul Maurice.

“I’ve moved him around and moved him up. I’ve liked his camp,” Maurice said. “He doesn’t mind going to the net. He’s got some hands on him and he makes some good plays and I think he understands the game. How he fits with other people will be a really important thing for him going forward but he’s had a good camp. He’s done what he could do.”
