Description
Yzerman will move out 2 vet players as cap casualties to free up space to re-sign RFA and Kane while targeting a 1st/2nd line winger.

Fabbri has 2 years of term left @4M (and is an injury risk) so it will cost the Wings a mid-round pick (late 3rd). Maatta is a steady 3rd pair d-man that will chip in offense so he will get the Wings back a mid-round pick (early 4th/late 3rd).

Yzerman will target Marchessault (who will be a cap casualty in Vegas due to them signing Hanifin and getting Stone back from his ruptured spleen. If Robin Lehner declares his hip healed and ready to go after rehabbing from the Aug '22 surgery then Vegas could be having to buyout another contract as well.)

OR

Yzerman will target another UFA: Teravainen could use a change of scenery

OR

a 1st/ 2nd line winger in a trade for draft capital/prospects/ Berggren. Packaging an NHL player (Maatta or Fabbri) along with a top prospect, Berggren, and a 1st plus a following year's 2nd should be enough to acquire a winger. Then Yzerman would go after a Sprong-like veteran to fill.

    signing Kane for 2 years is just bad. He's 36 next year.
    Same could be said about the Marchessault contract but someone will sign him to probably more. I think he's one of those, it's his contract year, hook him up with the puck because he did the same for others type years. I predict he declines once he puts pen to paper.

    The Seinder and Raymond contracts look like you are paying top dollar for RFAs. Even an overpay on Seinder. I think they will both be signed for less.

    Marchessault is going to get quite a bit more than a 250k raise. That being said, it’s not guaranteed that he will be a cap casualty. Martinez is gone with the Hanifin signing, and one of Marchessault or Mantha will not be resigned, and more than likely Mantha is out the door. Raymond will very likely be asking for more, and maybe Seider as well.

    Shai Buium is a 3rd year college player, Therefore he can only sign a 2 year ELC not 3

    Moritz Seider will get the Dylan Larkin deal, That's already been pretty much confirmed

    Lucas Raymond > Matthew Boldy 7x7 deal. Raymond will come in at least at 7x7.5m

    It's sounding like more and more that Patrick Kane will test free agency.

    Detroit has zero interest in Jonathan Marchessessault.

    Detroit isn't surrendering a 3rd round pick for one year of Robby Fabbri at $4,000,000 when healthy he's between a 30-40 point winger. We can just accept futures for him for a team that needs to reach the cap floor.

    And Justin Holl is 100% a buyout candidate this summer.

    And oh FYI, Mazur and Soderblom will spend another season in GR, Long before getting healthy scratched in Detroit.

    Hell yeah man. $5.25M for another midget winger while rolling into next season with Petry and Holl as our 2RD and 3RD!
