Description

Definitely won't happen, but interesting to say the least.

Using Dom's estimates from The Athletic:

https://theathletic.com/2705164/2021/07/27/nhl-free-agency-ranking-the-top-50-available-ufas/

I did round the years on the contracts.

GL plays both LW and C (he took over 400+ draws in 2020-2021 @ 56% win rate), I've got him listed as a C (the comparisons to Zetterberg keep piling up).

Landeskog is not a centre. Just because someone can play centre, doesn't mean they are one. & just winning faceoffs alone doesn't qualify someone as a good centre. Landeskog played on the wing of MacKinnon who isn't the greatest face off centreman, and there was many many times where he was waived from the circle and Landeskog would fill in for him. With MacKinnon also being the guy who runs the PP, he usually isn't the centre on the man advantage and Landeskog could step in there. But he's by far not a 1C and not a consistent centre option at all.

No they don't. No team goes through a full season with only 6 defenceman, depth is key. They'll likely keep them because their depth in the AHL isn't ready yet

No need to get all worked up over it because It really doesn't matter Landeskog isn't signing in Detroit anyways.
