Thread: Wings Offseason

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>andrewj72</b></div><div>I agree with most of what you said but Fabbri is on a 44 point pace while playing limited minutes, with one year left at 4m I can’t see why there wouldn’t be a market for him. Maybe given his injury history but there wouldn’t be much risk anyway</div></div>

The 3 knee surgeries. He's been healthy this season which is nice to see.

Fabs still scores goals.

Which outweighs what he'd fetch in a trade.

Stevie will have to eat cap to dump Holl and Husso.

Last thing he needs is to retain on Fabbri.

But hey if Stevie can dump his 4 mil then go for it.

If Ottawa is willing to give him $6.2M for 6 years, I'm confident that he would be more than happy to sign there.

Thread: Detroit Red Wings signed Patrick Kane (1 Year / $2,750,000 AAV)

-unused cap space

-team competing for a playoff spot

-1 year deal

-Debrincat connection

Worth a try, I vote yes

Thread: Maybe a 1st mistake for Steve Y

Yzerman has made several mistakes;
Signing Chiarot, Signing Copp, Drafting Cossa over Wallstedt...

This is not one of them. Lindstrom wasn't even a 7th d-man on Detroit.

I was a Red Wings fan before the Sharks came to SJ. So I can't help but have a soft spot for them. I'm not saying Detroit is a juggernaut. I just think they get crapped on more than they should. I really don't know why?

Thread: Way behind Ottawa and Buffalo for this upcoming season

I don't think they're that far behind if at all. I like detroit but obviously want ottawa to be better. Personally I'm just excited to watch some hockey this year, it will be fun to see these improved teams battle the regulars for a spot.

Thread: Way behind Ottawa and Buffalo for this upcoming season

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ATC</b></div><div>Its not the top end talent thats issue. Buffalo's blue line is brutal outside of the two first picks, and their goalie has seven games to his name.

OTT is betting everything on korpisalo who outside of last year was terrible. And then adding tarasenko thinking he'll be good again even though age has 100% caught up to him. Det's depth clears both. Edvinsson/Kasper with high upside potential.</div></div>

That's all fans look at. Star power. Detroit has upgraded their depth and will be improved. If stars won Cups by themselves, wouldn't Toronto have won 4 Cups by now? Oilers?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BUF10</b></div><div>Sabres scored 56 more goals than Detroit and had 11 more points. They are behind Ottawa&Buffalo by a wide margin.</div></div>

Wishful thinking. Detroit sold at the trade deadline and were tanking after Rasmussen got injured.

Wide margin? Child, please. 😁

Ottawa and Buffalo aren't perfect hockey teams.

Yeah Detroit didn't improve at all. 🤔

Thread: Yzermans Vision for Modern Team Building

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>andrewj72</b></div><div>Reasoning for Compher being in there? Not saying your wrong but I feel he was brought in more for a mentoring role as opposed to being a core guy</div></div>

Signed long-term and I don't think Yzerman would bring on a guy with that much term that he doesn't feel can have a contributing role on the core of this team. Every team needs a veteran presence with experience winning the cup, and Compher provides that.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mondo</b></div><div>another prospect that will be too good to trade in acgms.</div></div>

Yes its much better thinking players off the bottom half of your roster bring in 1st line returns. At one point Jeremy Bracco was worth Bertuzzi or Larkin.

Thread: (OTT/DET) - DeBrincat for Kubalik, Sebrango, 2024 4th (DET), 2024 1st (DET)

Hey you remember how Sens fans kept insisting that they'd get a dragon haul for Cat, and got really angry when you told them to temper expectations?

Good times.

For example from this <a href="https://www.capfriendly.com/armchair-gm/team/4262227">Thread</a>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Random2152</b></div><div>Not nearly as much as Sens fans believe.

1 year of team control, 9 mil QA, a down year depressing his value, Dubois also being on the market - sapping his market, etc

They'll get a late 1st and a B+ if they're lucky</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>csick</b></div><div>Lol what a terrible take. He submitted a list of 10 teams and assuming he gets traded to one of them , they’re gonna get a good return including roster players. They’re not taking a step back next year by acquiring a pile of magic beans</div></div>

Anyway I actually think Dorian did alright for the situation - but it's still a clear win for DET - especially with limiting the deal to 4 years.

I've read he doesn't have a good attitude either, but he's still young and there's some potential offense. It seems pretty low risk, but he's probably not Yzerman's type.

Ever notice your comments don't get a much of likes?

Holl is easily a #4 dman and if he wasn't in Toronto under the microscope he wouldn't be thought of the way we knee jerk when he's mentioned.

Good signing by Stevie Y.

It's not the worst signing today, and he's a decent #4. Just hated on because he was the Leafs scapegoat.
