Yzerman should just keep Mantha. These lowball trade offers are hilarious.

How about Anthony Mantha for Ryan Mantha??

Sure. 3 goals in 41 games. 3 years ago for Bakersfield. What a steal.

yup, very big steal

Since Mantha is in the 1st year of a 4yr deal and hasn't asked for a trade I would expect to overpay to get him.

Anthony Mantha > > > Raphael Lavoie+Alex Chiasson+Edmonton's 2021 1st round pick. Any deal for Mantha starts with either Holloway or Broberg not those scraps. We could've had Chiasson for free when he was placed on waivers. Ask me how this benefits Detroit one iota?

A Center prospect+Bottom 6 plug and a late teens to mid 20's 1st round pick doesn't get Mantha slick.

Gee even worse considering that Chiasson is a 30 year soon to be UFA. Remember Yzerman is GM now in Detroit not Holland.

Not commenting on value of trade but how does a person with 28k post not have literal common sense.. Chiasson was added to the trade for cap reasons..

Holloway makes the most sense for Mantha. I’d be curious to see how Edmonton fans value him. I know everyone says X winger would look good next to McDavid but Mo’s play style and skating I think would really compliment McDavid.

LOL Yeah sure like Lavoie and a late 20's 1st round pick gets Mantha. Who freaking cares if Chiasson is a cap dump this joke of a trade doesn't help Detroit one iota. Zero chance of Lavoie being better then Veleno or Rasmussen trade isn't even close Holloway or Broberg would be the asks not a cap dump C prospect and late 1st round pick.

yo dude I said not commenting on value.. and first thing you do is go to value. Was just commenting on how you couldn't figureout why Chiasson was in the trade.

You forgot rodrigue, Holloway, samukorov, and 2 firsts

and you forgot Larkin

Nah this guy was so under it's not even funny, so I went the other way and went way over.

Dude are you really that naive? of course i knew Chiasson was a cap dump that's not in question. What is in question is that it's a joke of an offer to begin with.

LOL you literally made two comments directly focused on Chiasson and his UFA status/waivers. Don't try and backpedal. I never once said the trade was enough you are just going off for no reason.

Yea but maybe the way to go about it is give a real counter offer so the community doesn't become a bunch of people flaming each other.

Sure rodrigue, holloway and a first, plus chiasson as a cap dump

I think Holloway is off the table. He is just playing too well his value must have risen close to a ~5th overall pick. I'm sure Broberg, Lavoie, 2021st, Rodrigue, Bear, Jones, McLeod would all be in play before Holloway

Prob can't do it without Holloway.. I think prob no match and both teams move on

What exactly do you mean ~5th overall? Are we talking this year or a redraft of his year? Both of those have different values.

Redraft of 2020 I'd put him in same teir as Sanderson, Drysdale, Holtz atm. Like right there or slightly behind either way his value has risen a lot since being drafted

It’s a bit premature to do a redraft. Holloway is playing good and really good after WJC but the same could be said about multiple prospects selecting 5-14 OVR last year. He had an okay tourney, nothing to write home about. Why does he jump Lundell, Askarov, Jarvis, etc? I get why you don’t want to trade him but someone good has to go the other way for Mantha. I’m not a huge Broberg fan, love the tools and hate the tool box.

spare brain
