The return that WPG got is significantly better than what you have there.

This is a classic case of people not understanding actual value of players, especially when they're on "your" team.

Not too late.

4 centers moved in a week 2 half retained for free pretty much. I'd take any of the 4 here.

Why trade Taylor Hall inside the division for free when you can trade him to a Western Conference lottery team…. Which won’t come back to bite you ever.

Dubois was never going to happen… Nor were we interested… so why bring it up?

Is Kevin Hayes really a missed opportunity?

I could be talked into Durzi, but everything hasn’t played out, the offseason just began… would like to see what else transpires first before coming to rash conclusions

I'd push back on the pretty hard

Zadina > Kupari
Fabbri = Iaffalo
Berggren ~ Vilardi

I'd say it's as close to a wash as one could get. I suppose you could swap Rasmussen for Berggren if you prefer

Insanity. Maybe the last one everything else doesn’t fit this team

I was interested in Dubois. Much more than ADB

Dubois showed in the playoffs with CBJ under Torts against Tampa, that when he plays with an elevated level of intensity and when he plays defense, he can be the most dominant player on the ice and dictating the game.
However, PLD doesn’t seem to be interested in being that player, at least not on a consistent basis. The Wings were never interested in the player nor were they interested in giving up the assets to acquire him.

Marco Kasper will be better than PLD.

It's impossible to know if Detroit was interested in Dubois, but I'd bet my house that Dubois was never interested in Detroit.

It is possible to figure out. Since everyone can now what LA gave up for him… come up with a respectable trade offer that Winnipeg would accept… and then ask yourself, would Yzerman make this trade for the Wings. The answer is gonna be no 10/10

Ya I mean that's absurd. Not even worth debating.
