Detroit declines. Seider is the 2nd coming of Bobby Orr...but also there's also several painfully more obvious reasons why Detroit wouldn't do this.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Onlyfairtrades1</b></div><div>Drury just hangs up on you.</div></div>

Yep, probably. But that's why the contract is still there. He'll end up up riding that contract out to NYR's detriment. Trouba doesn't have positive value IMO.

Thread: The Yzerplan

Downgrade DET 1st to the NYI 1st and downgrade Wallinder to Johansson and it's a little bit more palatable. The price for Cat stings a little at the moment.

Thread: Nobody Wants To Play With Me

That's a nice looking team. I'd happily pay those assets for EL and TK and also there's really been no violent objection in the chat (unless Chiarot sees this), so the value seems pretty close. We've really got the assets to bring in at least two significant Top 6 guys this offseason and I hope Yzerman pulls the trigger on it.

Also I'd decline that if I'm Chicago and back my judgement that Bedard > Matthews.

Thread: BURN IT DOWN

Nylander's production is only marginally better than Raymond's in their respective career starts so the trade is fair value, but it just keeps Detroit treading water. Wings need both Nylander and Raymond really.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Stanley_Cup_To_Manhattan</b></div><div>NYR retain if they can get snag a 1st</div></div>

And our firsts are too high for that. Very strong chance even the Boston 1st appreciates in value. There's a deal there though, I like Trouba.

Retain $2-3M on Trouba then yeah sure. But it makes me feel like bad value as is.

I really like the idea of Kostin for us. I was hoping we might go after someone like Max Jones for the same reason, but this would be way better.

Thread: Wingz

I'd love to have Konecny at the Wings. This is essentially Konecny for Bertuzzi who was down on value at the time of trade - Wings would have to add.

Thread: If Cat is moved do this

I'd do that if I'm Detroit. That's a bargain in my opinion and the return for the Sens is probably better than what they paid too given the draft depth.

Wouldn't surprise me at all if they're all traded anyway. I don't see them as core. Veleno in particular has become the sort of guy Stevie might throw into a deal as a sweetener.

Creative, but in the long term there would be better wingers to trade Raymond 2 firsts and 2 seconds for.

Agreed. I didn't comment on the Saros trade though. I'm holding him if I'm the Preds.

Thread: Tampa

Detroit accepts. We'd probably want to source a better player to pair behind Seider, but Myers would fill a need at 3RD or 7D

Thread: time to compete

I don't mind the idea of Roslovic, but I'd probably prefer that 23 2nd. Isn't he a local guy though? You'd be a popular GM in the locker room 😂

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheRevanchist17</b></div><div>Garland is far from a waste, if you actually watch him play he's quite good, his numbers are just unimpressive bcuz he's so low on VAN's depth chart and before u say anything, VAN is incredibly deep on the wings.

I get it. Garland produces points, shoots right and plays above his weight, so it seems to address a need for Detroit. But he really only steps into the top 6 because Bert and Vrana are gone. If we're going to trade Joey and the NYI first, I'd rather see Yzerman do it in a package for a true first-line winger.

I don't mind this offer at all, but there's probably just better ways for Detroit to use those assets.

Bert will want more term. Yzerman offered Bert four years, but Bert's camp wouldn't accept it so they parted ways.

You wouldn't give Edvinsson a skate next year? Scheifele is a weasel. I'd prefer to not see him in our colors, but I can't deny that those lines don't look pretty good for us!

Thread: It all makes so much sense now

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Wadejos123</b></div><div>DET isn't trading for Jones, agree with you guys on that one. But just to be clear Jones has been one of the better defenders in the NHL this year (more impressive on this terrible roster) and is absolutley not a cap dump, and the hawks don't need to "dump" his money. He's maybe a million overpaid but still absolutely a top pair D.</div></div>

I agree with you, he's definitely not a cap dump IMO and if we didn't have Seider he might be on the radar for me...maybe not for our two firsts in this draft. I liked him a lot at CBJ and thought that the contract was fine at the time. Good player.

Wings obviously accept.

It's a huge overpay OP, but it's kinda nice to see other fanbases valuing Elmer highly

Thread: It all makes so much sense now

Seider has the 1RD spot sewn up so bringing in a $9.5M 2RD doesn't make much sense. Detroit would be more likely to use those assets to trade up for Fantilli than to trade in Jones.

Thread: Bad faith

Love the idea of Roy to replace Hronek. Losing Wallinder would sting so the trade definitely seems like fair value.
