Thread: Not so bottom 6
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RedWing9119</b></div><div>Wow, you really don't know what you're talking about and that's sad. None of what you said is even remotely true and you need to check your "sources". Fact: Yzerman doesn't allow leaks so anything you've heard is likely bs. Fact: Vrana was in the assistance program for months. Fact: Vrana did not skate or workout during that entire time. Fact: the Wings realized after they sent him for conditioning that he would need more than a few games to get into game shape. Fact: uninformed morons who didn't know any better began to speculate things and then report them as facts. Fact: people like you repeat those things all over the internet because you can't be bothered to differentiate between a real source and a rumor mongering. Fact: your offer is insulting and you can go ahead and keep it.</div></div>

Fact every organization has leaks.
Vrana's future indoubt with the club was reported not just by local Detroit sportswriters and blogs but nationally by Lyle Richardson with the hockey news, Dave Pagnotta and Frank seravelli. But yes these are unreliable ppl.....

Thread: Not so bottom 6
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RedWing9119</b></div><div>Neither player has been in the minors "all season". Vrana was in the player assistance program and Ned was the backup most of the year but he struggled. We're not trading with or helping a team that we're competing against for a playoff spot. That's just stupid. And even if we did this offer is a joke.</div></div>

You aren't serious right. The redwings have done everything to show vrana his days as a wing are numbered. He could have been in the NHL for a while but the keep him down the ahl aside from a couple games. You must not really follow the team. He has been mentioned as a buy out candidate.
Nedeljkovic has played 9 NHL games this year. 9. He's been buried since December but basicallyost his back up job once they claimed hellberg.
But please go on about why the wings want to keep taking a cap hit on a goalie they don't want on an expiring contract and a player yzerman doesn't want on the team when they can get something for them. I guarantee no one else is offering better

Thread: NEEDs - 2RW - 3LW - 3C - 1st pairing LHD - 3rd Goalie - 1 Physical Player
1. I like getting jordan greenway but Wild won't take Mcginn and heinen. They want to cut salary.
2. Rasmussen isn't getting traded by the redwings. Nedeljkovic wouldn't be a bad pick up but would be very cheap even with any salary retention. Adam Erne would be cheap too and add a lot of grit to bottom 6.
3. Calgary is pretty solid on left side Dmen having hanifin, Weegar and Zadarov. Dumo isn't an upgrade over any of them really. plus they couldn't take on Dumo's cap hit and improve their center position which is what they have been looking to do. Also Dumo going for a 2nd ain't happening.
4. McCabe is buyer beware and thats a big overpayment.
5. Why, just Why. Sully never plays guys whose only ability is being a tough guy remember Ryan Reaves...
6. So many rumors PGH is interested in Boeser but honestly I wouldn't pay more for him than this but Vancouver will want more.

Thread: Go for it
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>Los Angeles has 5 defensemen under contract already plus the unsigned Mikey Anderson and Sean Durzi and about half a million in cap space, so any adjustments to the roster now (we're full at forward and in goal, too) would be severely disruptive as well as economically difficult.</div></div>

I see your point on that but not many of the D signed play left side. Durzi is Right side. Anderson does play left but there was rumored interest from Kings in Petterson or Chychrun. THey are likely going to have shed salary anyway just to get their RFAs signed. I also doubt they role with Elder playing a big role in the top 4 or 6. something is gonna give there. Outside of Doughty and Edler very inexperienced D core.
