If Vrana isnt a fit going forward

Description
I sure hope that Vrana can bounceback, but this is a IF scenario.

Vegas would certainly like to keep Cotter because of his really cheap contract, but if the Wings could get him in a trade, that would be great. Cotter is only 23 and has developed pretty well lately. Not expecting that he becomes a top 6 forward, but if he can develop into a good 3rd liner this contract could be really helpful going forward. A lot of big names need new contracts soon. I don't see anyone out of the prospects being ready yet. Martinez has only one year left on his deal while Määttä pretty certainly wants more term than that. Walman gets the last LD spot because he has earned it.

Vrana still has potential and is much younger than Martinez: that's why Vegas is giving up more assets.
Trades
DET
  1. Cotter, Paul
  2. Martinez, Alec
  3. 2023 3rd round pick (BUF)
Additional Details:
Wings get couple guys that are from Michigan. Martinez brings experience what Yzerman constantly talks about.
VGK
  1. Vrána, Jakub
  2. 2024 4th round pick (DAL)
Additional Details:
Vegas doesn't really need Martinez when everyone is healthy. They could use another LW tho. Vrana and Martinez Cap hits are equal.

Martinez has 141 shots blocked for the season, that's 43 more than Seider. Don't make it out like Martinez is a cash dump.

I do really like Cotter. I don't know about that trade. I like it, but I don't, if you know what I mean

Right now Vrana has almost zero trade value so this whole scenario is predicated on him performing well first in GR and then back in Detroit and so far he's been scratched 2x in GR.

i would do a vrana for trouba swap as a NYR fan. I'd even retain 1m of trouba.

Make it 4 million retained and it's done.
