Zadina alone is worth more than Trouba... He has so much potential. You're better off keeping him and trying to draft a defenseman, or giving up different assets for one. Detroit should definitely keep their 1st, they could win the Hughes lottery.

Wasn’t Trouba’s first complaint about playing on the left side. Why give up Zadina too, that puts Detroit further away from contending. Tear it down and build through the draft while Zadina and Larkin are young

If you see the lines, he mixed the LD and RD around in the top4. BTW, Winnipeg says yes.

2 years. Trouba and Krug will both be UFA. We will have loads of cap. And be in a lot better position to contend. And don’t have to give up any assests.

Why would we trade our best prospect? Just doesn't make sense.
