Which is a good thing because Detroit wouldn't give up Wallinder to get him.

Thread: Two Russians

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mokumboi</b></div><div>Wallinder is probably a B- prospect, but his defending is nowhere near NHL level at this time. So he's closer to a longshot than a sure thing, and will take a few years to be ready even if he has an NHL future. In other words, he's worth way more to the Wings than he would be to the Blues.</div></div>

And a 29yr old winger with a cap hit of $7.5M for the next 2 years makes a lot of sense for a rebuilding team he had what 7 goals in the last 2 seasons combined.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BStinson</b></div><div>Makes no sense for Detroit. If NYR aren’t willing to trade Lundqvist/Schneider and VGK Krebs then Seider is definitely off the table as he’s at least one tier above them.</div></div>

I agree Eichel isn't worth that at all.

Thread: Two Russians

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mikearky</b></div><div>Can Not see Yzerman trading for Kuzy and his off ice issues. Not his type of player and could be a problem in a young locker room.

Veleno is much younger and hopefully he progresses this year to the 3rd line center.

Kuzy contract will throw Yzerman's cap plan out of whack

Rasmussen again is a very young player who because of rules had to play way to early without any minor league training.

Just makes very little sense for Wings, Kuzy is just to dangerous to play with in a young developing locker room</div></div>

I wouldn't worry it won't happen.

Thread: insight on lines

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DeadWingsv2</b></div><div>Too much for Erne, Vrana is probably signing a bridge deal after he filed for arbitration and 7 years for Hronek is a bad idea. Aim for a 4 year deal and if he explodes into a Norris caliber guy and we have to pay him 10m a year in 4 years, that's a hell of a good problem to have.

Also, Raymond almost certainly starts in GR</div></div>

If Detroit signed Vrana and Hronek for that I have no problems with it.

I agree that Raymond starts in GR. I think we see him for a game here and there to judge his progress.

I think Berggren makes it up before Raymond does.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lancebmx</b></div><div>The whole idea on this is taking a chance on Duchene being able to rebound after leaving Nashville, getting small compensation to take him but only with retention.

Duchene with a cap hit at or below $2M then it's worth a chance, but $6M for 5yrs is just not worth it.

Or we could just sign Erne to a 5yr deal with a $6M cap hit per.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>nweinert27</b></div><div>I am fairly certain Byfield will be more impactful at the NHL level than Raymond. And, more importantly, he plays center. The wings are deep in the prospect pipeline everywhere but the only thing they're missing is an elite center prospect. Value might be off for sure. I'm just spitballing on how to get the center prospect the wings need. LA has a bunch.</div></div>

I'm not so sure Raymond has all the tools needed to become one of the best players in the NHL I can't even imagine what LA would want for him.

Petruzzelli has 15 day until he can sign wherever he wants and since everyone knows that no one is going to give up anything for him.

That isn't good for Detroit. Bertuzzi has shown he can put up 20g a season and I'm not sure Byfield is better than Raymond.

I think Ottawa is further along than Detroit. While things are starting to look up for Detroit but they are going to need a few of their recent draft picks make it to Detroit before I'd say they are good.

As a Detroit Fan I thank you for the compliment.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Billy739</b></div><div>Why wouldnt MTL just give a 2nd and a 3rd round pick with Byron if that's all you wanted?

We wouldnt throw away Drouin especially after his statements letting us know he's returning.
He was playing great hockey with Suzuki -Armia before going out. Its worth waiting till TDL to see if he can start strong this season

Drouin lost his value when we didnt know if he was returning
Now that we know he is and like Robin Lehner has a support system in place
We're happy to see if he also can play some great hockey now that the monkey's off his back</div></div>

With the way everything happened made me think that Montreal knew and gave their full support to him. I don't know what it was all about and I don't care because the thing people are going to remember is that Montreal stuck by their player when he needed it.

Detroit passes. Duchene is too expensive for too many years. Especially since Erne had almost double the production of Duchene.
