<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>aedoran</b></div><div>Yeah but offense isn't the problem. Believe it or not adding more offense doesn't fix defense and goaltending. I know add more offense Dubas's answer to everything, but he isn't in Toronto anymore for a reason. You said "even as a rental it's a beautiful pickup." So does the addition of Guentzel get Detroit a cup this year? If it doesn't then the Wings are just throwing away assets for a player that won't be on the roster nest season.

There are a lot of people who think the rebuild is over and the Wings should go out and spend assets because they are in the playoffs, but I disagree. The only correct way to rebuild is through the draft and developing players through your system is the best way to ensure sustained success. Detroit currently has 2 players drafted by Yzerman and only 5 players total that were drafted by Detroit on their roster. With the way Detroit has played this season I think they have opened their playoff window. Now adding big names for futures will increase are chances to win now but they will shorten how long that window stays open. One of the main reasons Detroit's rebuild has taken so long is they tried to keep that window open for too long. So they had almost nothing left in their system and have had to replenish the system before they could start rebuilding their team. I've noticed a lot of users on this site either don't have the patients, are incapable of looking past the next 2 seasons or just don't understand how the whole process works. But at this point is another season or 2 that bad when it could add another 10 seasons of being competitive?</div></div>

I think snagging Hanifin would be beautiful and adress the biggest need yet I also believe this wings team finally finding their way is beautiful because I think they have a great group including young guys that aren't I the lineup, they have money and they have picks I mean Yzerman is becoming the best hockey mind to ever exist but maybe just getting the best player is a move to make and putting guentzal in there to join the group that's there is nice....this team being healthy for once and confident to add to their abilities is so dangerous sprong and this year's additions have added a veteran spark...dark horse in the league
