I’d do it if this was the cost.

Red Wings say yes. Coyotes say no.

I may just be high on Detroit's D prospects, but I wouldn't pull the trigger, the value seems fine, but Detroit's need is at C not D.
Edvinsson, Johansson and Wallinder are all coming through shortly.
Buium, Tuomisto, McIsaac, Sebrango all also have shots at cracking the lineup to a degree. Seider is here for the long term, and I think Hronek will be a part of the roster long term too.
Seider and Edvinsson should be the long term top pairing, and with a pipeline like that i'd rather fill the bottom 4 from within.
Zadina I think is far more valuable than his point totals suggest, and a top 6 of Raymond, Larkin, Bertuzzi, Zadina, Vrana, '22 1st should be deadly.

I don't disagree with this at all. Zadina is better than his numbers for sure. I don't hate the idea of trading for Chychrun though, I just think that the player going the other way should be a LD that isn't named Edvinsson and prefer it not to be Johansson personally. If a deal can be made for a future first and a couple other good prospects then it should happen. No point in giving up long term cost controlled assets yet I don't think.

Absolutely agree that it would be a D prospect we should trade. No way that gets Chychrun unless the Arizona GM wants to implode the franchise.
