First time doing this, think honestly improvements can be made from within if guys are given correct chance with a real goalie.

Pretty sure if Maatta could be traded for a 2nd round pick, Detroit would just do that themselves.

Also, Laine is the exact opposite of what Detroit looks for in their locker room. And I'm not talking about his mental issues. Yzerman hates lazy players.

You can be sure Gibson and his M NTC won't include CBJ as team he agrees to traded too.

It's a 10 team NTC. So it's entirely plausible that if he's another "Nowhere in Canada" guy and doesn't want to play in Arizona, that Columbus isn't on the list. That leaves two more slots.

In what world does Calgary pay a 2nd for Maatta?

I'll do you one better... In what world does Detroit trade Maatta and Veleno for two players who are performing worse, rather than just trade him to Calgary for a 2nd, which is apparently possible lol.

I've always liked Roslovic but no reason to make that deal, no way on Laine I'm just not a fan

Hawks decline and your "real goalie" has been below average for half a decade.

The Hawks just resigned their goalie for two more season, therefore there is no need for them to offer anything Merzlikins even with retention.

If Gibson says yes, Anaheim probably does as well
