Organizational Comments: "He's really matured the last two or three years. He's ready to come over. It's coming over and getting adapted to the smaller ice. The shots are coming at you a little quicker." Wings Asst. GM Jim Nill
What GRC says: Summer 2008:Larsson is the real deal, and it should not take the young, skilled netminder long to work his way up the ladder. Daniel was passed over in the draft twice before blossoming and drawing the Wings interest.
