Description

Yzerman continues the rebuild of the roster increasing the "talent" thru the draft and key roster moves. Vlad Namestnikov is retained as the "experienced" locker room presence at forward, taking the role from the departed Sam Gagner. The signing of Olli Maata provides the veteran partner for Seider on the first pair in the interim while the defense prospects (Edvinson, Wallinder, Johansson, Buium, Tuomisto, et.al.) mature and enter into the lineup over the next couple of years. I expect that Tuomisto may replace Hronek in the lineup at the 2024 TDL, sending the young Top 4 RD Hronek to a playoff contender for multiple 1st round picks and/or prospects as his contract expires. Unfortunately for Jonaton Berggren, he doesn't make the 2022-23 opening night lineup, but I expect he will be called up as an inevitable injury replacement in the lineup.

I don't want Maata here. Rather trade for Martinez. Or Pettersson if he's available. Try to sign Lindholm.

Not a fan of Maatta, and Washington wouldn't be a fit for Leddy.

At the moment, I don't expect Martinez to be available, and I'm not sure what the actual cost would be in a trade. There are so many different proposals in CF that have Detroit sending a high 2022 draft pick and a top prospect to Vegas. That is definitely not something Yzerman would do.

I too like Pettersson, but the cost may be too expensive (probably at least a 2022 2nd round pick and a top prospect. Detroit also has multiple very good LD prospects in the pipeline, so Yzerman may stay the course with his plan.

As far as signing Lindholm, I fully expect new GM Verbeek to address his contract extension first thing in his tenure. That led me to signing a stop gap for 3 years while our LD prospects mature and integrate into the roster over that time. Maata should be a decent TDL acquisition for a playoff contender as his contract expires in 3 years.
