Yeah to trocheck or copp but they probably cost more. Philly probably declines, I'm not sure 1 year of Bert gets you provorov but I'd do it if they would.

Trading for Provorov is not a good idea for Detroit for the following reasons:

1. Provorov is a giveaway machine. He has 72 giveaways this season (2.71 per 60 minutes of icetime). The worst of the defenders we have on the team is Hronek with 40 (1.75/60).

2. Provorov is useless when it comes to stealing the puck from an opponent. He has only 16 takeaways this season (0.60/60). The only current defender in Detroit worse than that is Hronek with 13 takeaways (0.56/60), Seider has 36 (1.41/60).

3. Provorov has three years still on his contract with a rising salary, his salary in his last year is $ 8,625,000. That means that if we should want to resign him he would start his ask at that salary. If we should want to trade him the receiving team would either be prepared to pay that much for an extension or he can only be traded as a 3 month rental to a contender with the resulting drop in return for us. Provorov will never give Detroit back anywhere near what you're paying for him here.

4. Provorov's contract is immune to buyouts. His salary structure with signing bonuses makes a buyout cost just as much as not doing one.

5. There is no need for Detroit to splash these resources at this time in our rebuild. We have an abundance of good to superb prospects on LD already in our system with: Edvinsson, Johansson, Viro, Wallinder, Sebrango, McIsaac. Two of those are close to being ready to make the team and will do so in the 2023-2024 season at the latest.

6. What Detroit needs on LD is one or two (depending on how good Walman and Juolevi look the rest of this season) solid defenders on contracts that make them tradeable when our kids surpass them in their development. Such defenders can be had this offseason for a tiny fraction of what you're paying for Provorov here. There is Pettersson or Matheson in Pittsburgh who is in cap trouble and have younger defenders needing roster spots. The expected cost for acquiring Pettersson is one 3rd round pick. There is Schmidt in Winnipeg that is in the same situation as PIT. His expected cost is also one 3rd round pick. There's Scandella in St. Louis who will net us picks if we take him off their hands.

7. What you're giving up for Provorov in this trade is the best winger this team has had in over ten years. He is having his best year in his career and is scoring at an 80-point pace. Bertuzzi has publicly expressed a desire to stay on this team. There is no plan in your ACGM for how to replace his production.

This is a very bad trade for Detroit and should IMHO not even be considered.

I could very much see Scandella being the move, Stevie and Army seem to have a good relationship for deals.

I don’t totally agree Provorov is as bad as you make him out to be, given his partner and the down years they’ve had in goal, but the contract is 100% a difficult one. My perspective is that’s the only way you get a guy who’s a top 4 LD for a winger. I appreciate the criticism though, cheers mate.
