Created by: buffbry9108

Team: 2023-24 Detroit Red Wings

Initial Creation Date: Jun. 20, 2023

Published: Jun. 20, 2023

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Today Yzerman stressed these specific things in his presser.

Core will be 27 or under and they won't trade any draft picks for players older then that

Player has to have term on their contract

He will not trade #9

Only way he trades 17 or any of the 2nds is if player fits in core 18-27 and has term on contract that makes sense for the red wings

He won't be trading picks and prospects to improve for a playoff spot in the short term

He wants to build through the draft and short term fixes aren't going to happen

He rather fill gaps in free agency then through a trade so he can have the best of both worlds

Players develop at different time lines and he's not worried about making the playoffs or not, he just wants to improve and have his core and young players improve internally

He isn't opposed to moving up or moving back in draft depending what's out there.

This eliminates a lot of what people are posting on here, take it as you will, but this has been the same message for 6 years and hasn't changed today

Side note - this is why so many of us wings fans say no to every proposal on this site, it doesn't match up with what Steve says and does

Because you can still mock players with that criteria? Or is every single player that the Red Wings can mock trade for going to be 30 and an impending UFA?

Why even comment something so stupid? Still mad about a 20 year old rivalry?

yzerman says he wont docthese things then goes a trade a second round pick for a guy like leddy. what he says and what he might do are different things.

It's not impossible, but he's referencing 17OA + 41/42/43. If I say I want to have a red car, but I traded a red car for a black car in the past; does that nullify my wants for a red car?

Does he have a time machine because he said that today and the Leddy trade was 2 years ago?

This is quite literally just notes from Yzerman's press conference today.
Earl, you're real funny dude. I'll give your baits a 6/8.

You got me, kudos. I'll never comment on a dead things roster without first running it by Stevie Y. Your logic & obvious extensive life experience simply has no leaks. Basically, everything you write is Gospel. It's truly humbling to be in the presence of such majesty. You win the Internet and all Comments. Pop a bottle!

You've gotta be the biggest Red Wings fan on this site the way you're obsessing over the team and Yzerman.

Every time a GM draws a line in the sand, I'm reminded of Brian Burke's ultimatum of Nik Antropov for no less than a 1st...

Maybe you're Ken Holland's burner? Idk. You've just got an obsession with Detroit and it's kinda weird if you ask me.

Just theorizing why you're obsessing. Thinking out loud, or in this case, thinking over text?

He's just a troll. Or Ken Holland's burner. I'm personally trying to figure that out right now.

Depends; I think I'm getting him angry while I'm sipping on grape crush. So I'd give myself the lead, but man this argument stuff can peak at any moment.

If you read what I've previously said, you're keeping me entertained on a slow work day. Why would I just sit and twiddle thumbs when I can talk with a fellow Red Wings fan?

Sure if you wanna call me that; but I'll assume it in the sense of "someone from below the Mackinac Bridge."

you have only nine ACGM rosters. Comments from all sections of the website. I assume you did the GM Game too. It's a waste of your life and you don't even hide it. You've earned an Ignore.

Lol this was funny.

So I'll probably still make some trades and moves cause it's fun to try and improve the roster my way.
