Next year

Created by: Mystaes
Team: 2023-24 Detroit Red Wings
Initial Creation Date: Apr. 14, 2023
Published: Apr. 17, 2023
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Similar to last year: Killorn is basically Perron 2.0. Old guy with veteran leadership who is good at hockey to round out the third line and help teach the rooks.

Keep pius for his great flexibility and defensive metrics.

Kasper could start on the wing or rotate with Copp.

Severson is really the only big get, but really rounds out the top4 nicely should Edvinsson step in.

Mostly being patient for another year as the next wave of rookies develops, but raising the floor a tad.

I don't mind signing Killorn. I just don't know if he'd sign here. I'd rather get ROR to solidify 2C. But he seems happy in Toronto and he's an Ontario boy so he'll likely take a haircut to stay.

I don't believe Severson is worth that contract. He might get it in UFA. I just hope it's not Detroit who pays it. I'd rather have Soderblom over Suter.

It sounds like Yzerman wants the team to compete harder and be tougher to play against. So we should expect a few moves via UFA or trades.

Kubalik won't be an extra forward. He's one of the few players on this team who can score. LOL

Seven years seem way too much term for Severson. There probably other RHDs who would sign with short term, which wouldn't gum up the cap later.

I like Suter's game but idk if it's worth a 3x3.

That Severson deal takes him to 35 years old.. The Wings need younger blood for that length of a contract.

I'd rather see Soderblom or someone get some experience on line 3 or 4 than an almost $5 mill Killorn contract.

Adin hill sure but that's a short contract for him to accept. That Veleno contract is a good deal for the Wings.

I’m personally against paying a RD like Severson that kind of term and money UNLESS they find a way to get out of Chiarot. If he’s healthy, I wouldn’t mind running it back with Mark Pysyk I feel he would be a good partner for Edvinsson. Keep in mind Chiarot and Maatta will still be pretty big minute guys so you don’t necessarily need to add a bonafide top 4 guy next year
