Mantha literally about to sign a long term deal with Wings in next couple weeks, he's not going anywhere

Don't see any reason for the Wild to do this.

Can't see DET accept that deal for Mantha, make it the 2020 1st and the talks can get real tho. Production wise, Domi and Mantha are not very far but every other aspect of the game favors Mantha, something really juicy would have to go to Detroit to make them think about this swap.

if they sign a goalie, then it allows their other guys to have a spot

Yeah so if we sign a new goalie we retain half and then move him for nothing.

Darren Helm would be our 15th NHL forward. There's ALREADY no space for him.

Wings pass on both deals and don't sign that slug craig smith

Get real Mantha is already on record stating that he's signing a long term deal with Detroit in the next couple of weeks, And for the last time Domi for Mantha isn't happening Yzerman has already said that he has no interest in Domi. And why would we want Dubnyk? When we're pretty much the front runner for Jacob Markstrom if he should reach free agency.

Durability seems like it carries some value, looks to me like Mantha can only handle 60 games.

what?

thank you for the insight. I didn't know there was progress in the resign department. i don't even like this trade all too much. just did it for the sake of late night boredom.

Which word are you having trouble with?

I thought we cleared all previous issues? I already communicated many times that I'm not close minded to an idea, and I'll put it out there whether it is crap or not - and I'm willing to be proven wrong. Heck, I never knew the wings were close on Mantha extensions and I learned something new by making this thread.

This website is simply a medium to put ideas down in writing. If I'm willing to be proven wrong, where am I looking to cause problems? Honestly if there's something we need to clear up, I'm all for it.

Otherwise, if you feel so strongly that I am a troll poster, the block button exists. I'd rather be on good terms with everyone, but if that can't be achieved, please utilize that feature.
