Thread: Start the rebuild
Wow, thats an interesting trade for the red wings. Depends if GhostBear returns or not if these are off-season deals. I like moving Maata and the 2nd, im a little hesitant moving Buium AND Soderblom, I think you can make due with adding either of two lvl B prospects but not both if youre taking 6.5mil for the next 3yrs. Wings might have ASP their 23 draft pick RHD up by then and still unfortunately have Holl for another 2 after this.

Buium could be a good bottom pairing dman in the NHL down the road and Soderblom just needs to play more consistent. Its not a development thing, its unfortunately the player. Same thing with Anthony Mantha.

Wings say no. The cap, term and M-NTC that kicks in25-26 for a now 31yr old Faulk scares me and probably Yzerman as well.

Might as well try to sign GhostBear for another 3yrs for the same price or less

Thread: Trading Zegras
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lancebmx</b></div><div>First off, Alex Lyon is a 31 year old career AHL/ fringe NHL goalie who had a decent run with Florida last year and is having a really nice run with Detroit right now, it won't likely last. He is not a long term solution and Cossa, if he pans out, is still a couple years away from being a back up. Hanas isn't really much, at most if he ever makes it he will be a third line winger. A third is just that a third, there isn't really a bunch of value coming to Anaheim. We paid a third for Ned and Husso. Merz is a lot more established and has had 4 pretty good seasons on a really bad Columbus team.</div></div>

FIrst off, i never said Lyon was the tendy of the future, and it MOST CERTAINLY WONT BE ELVIS. There is a reason why Elvis has not been traded yet and its because of cap and term. You talk about 4 good seasons, but left out how one season he was the clear starter, 2 were backup roles which were his best seasons, then you go into last year where he was god awful and then this season hes just mid again. Literally dont know what else Lyon has to do to prove to ppl he can be a capable goaltender and who cares if he isnt a legit #1 or a longterm fix, hes currently doing well and thats all that matter right now.
