[Michael Whitaker]”He’s A Special Guy”: Red Wings Love What Rookie Emmitt Finnie Is Bringing

15 comments

  1. He is on pace for 19 goals and 41 points, for his first season thats a solid ground to build on.

  2. saw him in person first time Sunday, actually a bit bigger than he appears in TV, will only get. stronger

  3. Imagine being 20 years old and skating with Larkin and Raymond. Thrilled for the young guy. He’ll be a long time fixture in Detroit.

  6. Not to always compare us to the Lightning but this guy can be our Palat type player in terms of role on the team. Hopefully he keeps it rolling because he’s a really fun player to watch right now.

  7. Finnie must be an epic shit-talker. Anyone notice how he seems to always be under the skin of the defenders and constantly getting cheap shot?

    Emmitt Finnie’s 4 power play goals are tied with Dalibor Dvorsky and Ben Kindel for the 2nd-most among all NHL rookies, trailing only Matthew Schaefer (5).

    His 9 goals on the season are tied with Matthew Schaefer for the 3rd most among rookies. #LGRWR

  11. He finds the dead spots on the ice. He hangs out in the Holmstrom office.

    Patrick Kane is brilliant for time and space and Finnie is showing flashes of brilliance of location and positioning. I hope we see more.

  14. Finnie’s gonna have a 40 goal season at least once in his career. You heard it here first; this kid is for real
