Description
Bettman forces the Coyotes to get a deal done to remain in Arizona. A new arena won't be done for a few years so instead of letting Cooley walk (who won't sign there), they make a deal while he is still under team control. The Wings are in desperate need of another top center prospect so they overpay to get one of the best ones available.

I know this trade is highly unlikely and probably an over payment but would be fun to think about.

I feel like it's close, maybe upgrade Zadina to a better prospect. Would like to hear from ARZ fans.

To those curious on Wallinder, he is a prospect with a supposed crazy high ceiling. Was Rogle's #1 DMan in the SHL, lead the SHL in U21 points. Very underrated prospect. Drafted under the idea of "A lot of work needed, but a lot to work with"

I think Detroit would be stupid to offer this trade and Arizona would be dumb not to take it.

With that being said, I love Cooley; but I’d never do this trade from a Red Wings perspective.

It’s possible this deal could end up being William Wallinder, Ryan Leonard, Tom Willander & someone like Kasper Halttunen for Logan Cooley and I am super straight on that.

Two sides. I personally wouldn't do it since I don't like top heavy teams, but I can see a route taken like this.

Overpay for Cooley, close for Keller.

Either way we are better off keeping the picks and Wallinder.
