while GMRH said he wanted a big physical presence, i think he will give that opportunity to zohorna. though in a small sample size, he looked good this season and gave the physical play we needed him to. but that does seem the most likely place for him.

Gonna say no to the DET trade here. We'll likely need a 1st and a prospect to take Neal.

I wouldnt sign RNH to any thing above 4 million every time he shoots he misses the net. I'd keep james neal and trade the 1st for soehing else. Keep kassian he plaes the game the right way and hits alot. Get rid of ethan bearr, he is so bad at hockey and is a constant giveaway everytime he comes on the ice.

Wings accept

Don't love it don't hate it swap Palat for Killorn
Palat keeps up with Kucherov and Point he can keep up with McJesus

you can all stop with the Kassian trades. That cap hit is yours. We don't even want him for a 5th

Detroit got a 2nd round pick for taking on Staal. Staal was a useful player for Detrot as he played in a position of need.

Neal is a winger. Detroit don't need wingers, we already have 9 waiver eligible wingers penned in for next year + Raymond and Berggren, that mase Neal useless for Detroit.

Useless players require a higher payment to dump than useful players do.

Neal's contract is twice as long as Staal's.
Neal's salary is 75% higher than Staal's.

You need to add another first (or a good prospect) to make the deal comparative value wise to the Staal trade.

James Neal's buyout is $1,916,667 for each of four years.

Which do you think would benefit Edmonton more: the 19th selection in this year's draft, or $7,666,668?
