Burger for Bam Bam
No chance even DET does this. Boqvist = ASP, and isn't like the rest of the core Dman squad (look at Seider, Edvinsson, Johansson, Gibson are all over 6'2, while ASP is 5'11). I liken Boqvist to Anders Eriksson, who Stevie knows well. Jenner is a good piece, but where would he play? He wouldn't play on the 2nd line over Perron, Kane, Compher, and the 3rd line with Ras/Copp/Fischer are crushing it. You aren't paying a 1st round pick and a good prospect for a 4th liner unless you know you are going to contend for the finals, and that piece would put you over the top. Jenner wouldn't put DET over the top.
I suspect DET will sit still, maybe move Reimer for a late round pick. Berggren stays this year, and Steve gives him a guarantee to make the squad next year full time.

DET is definitely not in the market for a Dman, having one too many already and holding Edvinsson in the AHL. I suspect they'd trade a dman for a bottom 6 shutdown guy though. But the 1st rounder isn't in play for that either.

Kaliyev could be a possibility, though is he that different than Berggren (offense first guys)? Broberg (though, I'm not sure what DET would do with him and the rest of the D talent). Barrett Hayton is another guy that might use some scenery change too.

Zero chance Berggren goes for a 4th rounder. DET will probably use him to swap for another change of scenery candidate. DET doesn't need any more picks.
In all reality, unless Yzerman is overwhelmed, I think he stays with DET. There is some spots opening up next season, they could make him a guarantee when he resigns...

Time for him to waive
This kind of deal guarantees that BOS will keep their 2024 1st round pick, as that isn't a very deep team. Which means the 2025 1st rounder will be unprotected.
Still has a good defense, but nothing up front.

I did like the fact that you put a bunch of MI natives in the trade mix.
But, obviously, never going to happen. It's Ras and a 4th for Garland and a 1st. Everything else is fodder. VAN should never do this.

I think Ras's days as a full time C are done. Looked like a forechecking 2nd line LW last year. I could see him paired up with Compher to give them 2 Cs, one on each hand (Ras as the lefty, Compher as the righty). That would be the ultimate shutdown line late in games.

Razor will get a 1st line shot before Bergy. Razor is an excellent playmaker too. Bergy and Ras would fit together as well, as Bergy could feed Ras in the net front.
The reason why you wouldn't want Bergy or Razor with Cat and Larkin is who is playing in the corners? Larkin can play in the corners, but Cat and Razor aren't forecheckers. Perron and Ras are.
It might be 20-30 games before we know how these lines will work.

I don't think Pionk or Connor is on the block for WPG. I think anyone over 30 would be on the block (Schif, Buck, Demelo, Dillion). I don't think WPG will be "rebuilding" per se, I don't think they are that far off from being a playoff team again (especially in the West).

I'd take a flyer on Colin White for sure. The depth at C isn't great, and we don't want Kasper on the 4th line.

Time for Hughes to strike
Big guys like Soderblom will need time to develop (especially coming from the big ice to smaller ice). Even if he stays all year in GR this season, he's still in DET's plans.
That being said, if I'm MTL, I don't trade Mesar for Soderblom due to timeline. MTL isn't ready to compete yet, and probably will closer be when Mesar is ready. He's a Swiss Army type guy. I think both will be good players in the NHL, they are just at different points of their timeline.

Rumors
With the predicament that OTT is in now with Debrincat, I can't see anyone giving Dorian a 1st round pick, unless OTT adds in some sweetener. For DET, I don't think the sweetener would be Brannstrom. It could be Formenton+4th round pick for BOS 1st round pick plus Kubalik and a 3rd rounder.
I suspect Dorian will keep Debrincat until the TDL, trades him (if he takes off, he commands a 1st round pick from a contender, if not, he'll eat a 2nd rounder), and Debrincat walks into UFA next year.
If I'm Yzerman, I don't give up either 1st round pick. BOS could really fall off a cliff, making that a mid-1st (they are in big trouble cap wise, with no 1st or 2nd line C). Anything after the 1st round is game though.

DeBrincat Value Down
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BCAPP</b></div><div>Ive seen Detroit fans value Berggren very highly this summer, but I never heard of him before the summer so can only go off his boxcar stats. They seem solid enough but not particularly special. What makes you folks think so highly of him (genuine question, tone not always obvious online)?</div></div>
There are several components of why DET fans are so high (even overrating) Berggren. First, his numbers for the year were pretty good once you put the lens on it. He scored 28 points in 67 games, averaging 13:30/game. Bringing that number to 18 minutes/game, he’d be a slightly higher than .53PPG as a rookie.
He spent 37% of the time with Veleno as his C, meaning he played bottom 6 lines. He wasn’t quite sheltered, averaging only 56% if his face off starts in the Ozone. Looking at it that way, he had a positive possession metric of 51% CF, and a 4.6% CF relative. When he did play up the lineup, his numbers held steady (though, much better with Copp than Larkin).
80+% of his shots came in between the dots, for a Euro with only 1 year of NA ice time, that’s pretty good. He shot at a 15% clip, though only at 1.3 shots per game. He definitely needs to shoot more.
Nothing earth shattering, but for a team whose middle/bottom six got caved last year, he was the standout. He probably tops out as a 2nd line RW (playing his off hand). Someone compared him to Jiri Hudler, which is on the mark. Tomas Tatar is another good one. Both of them were above average middle 6 guys.

Which is probably where the issue of getting a first for Cat comes in. WSH isn’t giving up 8OA, NSH is already on the rebuild path, maybe CAR gives up #30, but they need Cs, not Ws, DAL doesn’t have a 1st this year. Would SEA give up 20, or STL 25? STL needs Cs, and Seattle needs prospects. Plus, Cat isn’t guaranteed to sign an extension with anyone. So no one is giving up a 1st without an extension at their price. And in a flat cap, everyone is having cost issues.
