LMFAO Cossa will not be the starter. He is not at all what the Wings thought he would be (hence drafting Augustine). I can see Cossa potentially becoming the back up in a couple more years but I cannot see him finding his groove that much to become the starter on the wings. I still can't believe he passes on Wallstadt for him

Not really a mess. His UFA signings can be questionable though.

lol Cossa has a better save % and GAA than Wallstedt. He has been killing it. Just set records with the Griffins and is a huge reason they have already clinched a playoff berth but ok lol

No NHL owner will allow his/her GM to use 4 buyouts in one summer.

I'm not even sure if it's allowed?

His UFA signings are what made it a mess. I still have faith but I have no clue how he's going repair this roster.

yeah im not even sure. i needed them off the roster. Guys that I feel GMSY needs to come up with a solution for.

I'm sorry but there's just so much wrong with this post. LOL

Well I can promise you he won't severely overpay for Guentzel.

Its not a mess:
Holl will be bought out or kept as insurance;
Petry and Husso expire after next year;
Copp isn't great but he's still productive and can probably be moved after next year;
Fabbri and/or Maatta can easily be moved to create some more room.

Most, if not all of the prospects are not ready yet - where's the mess?

Yzerman definitely has his work cut out for him this summer.

One thing about making Red Wings CFACGMs I find is trades aren't allowed.

LOL

That's not a "severe" overpayment lol

yeah i stayed away from the trades haha

Look at the teams they play on Grand Rapids has a lot better talent in it than Iowa. A good team helps that out. Wallstadt and Askorov are considered the best goalie prospects right now so I don't see how you are thinking Cossa is a better goaltender.

For instance if you want to trade Olli Maatta it'll cost a 2nd round pick and your best prospect.

And you'll get back future considerations.

Trade Fabbri?

It'll cost you your actual life. 🤭

Yes it is.

I never said he was a better goaltender. I said his stats were better and a big part of a playoff push. He's proving himself at every level. You're the wild one for think a back up in a couple more years and thinking the only reason they drafted Augustine is something to do with Cossa. I forgot goaltender depth was a bad thing get outta here

You sound dumb

right lmao

Whats fair then?

Jarry for Husso++ swap?

To be clear, I'm not suggesting he's not going to actually get that (some stupid GM will pay him). I'm just suggesting it's an overpayment.

If Stevie signed him for around $7-$8M a year I'd be all for it.

If Yzerman signs Raymond and Seider to 8 year deals I don't think he'll have the cap space to sign Guentzel.

But I can't see Yzerman's offering a max deal to Guentzel.

4 more years at 5+ mil for Jarry?

Nope.

At least Husso only has a year left.

Jarry is better than Husso

Well duh.

But Detroit is buying time for Cossa.

They don't need a goalie with 4 years left on his contract.

Jarry + (back up) 24-25
Jarry + (Cossa back up) 25-26
Cossa + (Vet back up) 26-27 (Jarry traded or is back up)
