No chance in hell Detroit is giving that up for Wild Bill. I'll take a flier on him for damn near free, but not giving up assets with his decline in production.

Detroit passes, Do not need or want Karlsson.

And if Martinez waives, he's more than like going home to Detroit. Where he said he wouldn't mind finishing his career.

I think Suter for Karlsson straight up is a more fair deal for both sides.
In that case I like the idea, it's unique, but don't think the Wings agree to that trade.

Suter stayed healthy for all 82 games and played well for being on a rebuilding team.
I don't think the Wings want to get an older guy AND have to pay him more just to get similar point production.
I agree that a change of scenery could be good for Karlsson & yes he's technically a 40 goal scorer but he's unfortunately been declining in point production.

I dont see Vegas trading Martinez

There Dcore both on the ice and analytically got worse when he didnt play

Wings pass, suter has more value then bill at this point and that contract is brutal. Knights pay wings to take him or they can keep that contract

Wings decline. Enjoy cap hell
