Created by: Kyriakos_Grizzly

Team: 2023-24 Detroit Red Wings

Initial Creation Date: Feb. 12, 2023

Published: Feb. 12, 2023

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Keep in mind that Copp can play on the wing also. Couture is 34y-old soon, but he has been super consistent throughout his career. He's on pace for 66p on a bad Sharks team. If the Sharks are willing to trade Couture for a reasonable price, I think the Wings should consider it. Couture has all the tools what Yzerman wants in a center. Leadership is big part of that. If the Sharks could retain some salary, that would be even better (I don't think it's gonna happen tho).

I'm sure the Sharks would love it if you'd take him off their hands.

Of all the top 6 centers in the league, Couture is the worst IMO. He's such a little girl and he's never been amazing. Overpaid, too much term just like every other player on the Sharks.
