Hi. I’m “Gio Palermo”, also known as “legorocks99” (“legorocks99Gaming”, “LR99Gaming”, or “LR99”). I post video game commentaries on YouTube revolving around “hockey”, with a primary focus on “Vancouver Canucks”, “Montreal Canadiens”, “Detroit Red Wings”, and top “NHL prospects” topics. These videos are uploaded with “NHL 23” gameplay in the background. I enjoy making these videos and I hope that you enjoy watching them!

I was happy to see Danielson drafted by the Wings. I know he will be sent back to the Wheat Kings, but should make the Wings for the 2024-2025 season.
When Yzerman drafted Seider, people said he had no offensive upside and that his comp was Brandon Carlo. The first thing Yzerman said after drafting him was “people are underestimating his offensive upside.”
And here we are again with people sleeping on a prospect’s offensive upside even after Yzerman takes them.
Shrug. People will find out eventually. Even if you’re one of the last to get there.
He was going to be picked up before pick 17. That much was obvious. Its just what happens with centers.
I was as surprised as you with ND's selection but he's gone out there and silenced the doubters. I've even seen posts on forums advocating him starting in the NHL. TBH I'm glad for him to return to Brandon as he's going to play a lot of minutes and take on even more responsibility which will be better for him in the long run. He's got a very good chance of making the team next season though and could even leapfrog Marco Kasper in the process. Really excited about this kid, and belated birthday wishes to him.
The fact that he was the rival/friend of Bedard supposedly sold it. When you're mentioned/compared favorably to a generational talent, it's a good sign. What you need to remember with Wings prospects is they have to be humble. Team first is the Yzerman mentality.
Talk about premature. Danielson has not played a single NHL game yet. No one knows if he will be good or not. Maybe wait a couple years before posting this?
Happy for Danielson. Still would've taken Benson at that point in the draft, but happy to see a guy so many people claimed had a low ceiling (but a good floor) show more promise so soon after drafting.
Kid looks like the real deal
Considering Yzerman is one of the greatest two way players and Nate was coming out in the draft as a two way guy, I think Yzerman would be a good judge in that department
He’s so good his offensive game was slept on by many
Nice video. Lalonde is pronounced La-lone (source: The coach himself)
The plan is to move Larkin to wing by the time or before he’s 30… it’ll prolong his career
Imagine Danielson turns into the 1c that Detroit has needed for so long.
