He played the other night,only because the Wings had no other option.Their goalies are dropping like flies.He didn't fair so good.He needs at least 2-3 years in the AHL first.
Luckily, none of us are Wings GMs, AGMs, and DPDs. I have more faith and trust in the Wings' braintrust to know exactly what they are doing than youtubers.
When Tommy's ready as deemed ready by the Wings, he's ready.
the wings desperately need a new goalie, i dont want to handle the roller coaster ride of osgood and howard all season, i would love to see them trade for a new goalie but i think they're gonna wait for mccollum to be ready then have a young all-star goalie which is the only thing they need, and in the meantime i could see howard and larsson split the season in the nhl next year like they did in grand rapids, mccollum is gonna be amazing because he plays like the best goalie ever to play...hasek
i think thomas is better, but josh shoulda got the 2nd game at wj.Mayby he woulda helped them wn gold who knows, when u play for ur country u step it up more.
Whoever expects him to come detroit in the next 2 years keep dreaming maybe like 3 or 4 don't forget the wings already have a strong prospect goaltender. Jimmy Howard most of you people forgot about him. hes the next great star goalie for detroit red wings!
Because of his age, he can only play in the NHL or OHL next year. Most likely with the Guelph Storm next year. The following year, he will likely play in Grand Rapids. I have watched him play for the past 2 seasons and I can tell you that he has the best positioning of any goalie in the OHL. He also has the ability to steal games on his own when he is hot.
My prediction, you will be hearing a lot of Thomas McCollum in Detroit for many years to come. I also hear that he is a great kid.
thomas will sit in the grand rapids untill the wings try and see what he can do in a game (that game will not be important) Then after two years you will see him some more...
well mccollum i hope you do good for my redwings from what i hear im not too worried.even if you play in the ahl i'll wacth you play at mts arena(i keep tabs on redwing players)
McCollum is hopefully gonna be sick, Im hoping to see a little more of Howard.. and its a shame wings had little enthusiam about trying to pick up Kolzig
Howard will platoon with Osgood next year, Babcock already said it'll be Osgood and Howard next season. I have been waiting to see Howard :) he looked good in the 2 starts he had this season and he lost a game 1-0 on a goal on a broken play with Lilja... Lilja lost his guy and left him open on the far side. saved 30 of 31 in that game.
wow he has the same last name as me

Eh, Howard hasn't impressed me at all. I'm more excited to see what Larsson can do... he had a stellar season in the AHL last year.
