My way.

Created by: RedWing9119
Team: 2017-18 Detroit Red Wings
Initial Creation Date: May 17, 2018
Published: May 19, 2018
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
This is what I would do if I were GM. NOT what I think Emperor Nero (oops I mean Ken Holland) will do. I think the only way to avoid long rebuilds is to attack the draft. This is how I would do it.

Just getting rid Ufa cap hits.

DET
  1. 2018 2nd round pick (WSH)
  2. 2018 2nd round pick (MTL)
MTL
  1. Helm, Darren ($1,925,000 retained)
  2. Jensen, Nick
  3. Saarijärvi, Vili
Additional Details:
Helm is still one of the faster guys in the league and he does everything Plekanic did. He's also six years younger and 4 million cheaper with the retained salary.

DET
  1. 2018 1st round pick (CHI)
CHI
  1. Athanasiou, Andreas
  2. Hicketts, Joe
  3. Smith, Givani
Additional Details:
Chicago is paying 21 million to two players. They can't afford to wait 2 or 3 years for a player to develop. This trade gives them speed (AA), grit (Smith) and a good (If undersized) defensive prospect now at cheap (ELC) prices.

  1. 2018 1st round pick (NYI)
  2. 2018 2nd round pick (CGY)
  3. 2018 2nd round pick (NYI)
NYI
  1. DeKeyser, Danny ($2,500,000 retained)
  2. Howard, Jimmy
  3. Nyquist, Gustav ($2,375,000 retained)
Additional Details:
Maybe this deal convinces Tavares to stay. Dekeyser is virtually identical to De Haan he's a little older but much bigger with a longer reach. I get the feeling Nyquist would really solidify NY top six. Finally, if Howard can stay healthy he could finally solidify the goaltender position.
