Malkin would only play half the year for $9.5M so I passed. And I was torn on Perron.

Thread: Hockey Trades

From a Detroit perspective, I'm interested in this as a starting point. I'm guessing Yzerman would get more though, probably a pick added.

Thread: Bruins Fan but Im bored

Detroit has like 4 guys that play 3C and 8-10 that should be considered bottom 6 talent. I'm not sure we need Boqvist to do the same. Besides, at 37% in FO's, is he <em>really</em> a C?

Thread: 2 Year Slow Build 22-23 Season Start

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lancebmx</b></div><div>Only thing I think is that Copp resigns in new York. I would give Suter or veleno that spot in the line up. I don't think the fourth line will help veleno much.</div></div>

I am hopeful that Copp would prefer to be back in MI where he grew up. We won't know until we know!

I totally agree regarding Veleno. I want him at 3C (at minimum) as much as possible, and would really prefer him there over Suter (which is partially why I propose trading Suter at the TDL).

You could've made the VAN trade somewhat realistic by getting EP back. I highly doubt they move Demko.

Thread: 2 Year Slow Build 22-23 Season Start

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PredsWingsFan</b></div><div>Im not sold on the Palat signing.. not really sure if he fits or brings the value Detroit needs with the younger core. I like the start here, maybe bring back Stall 1 year $2M to sure up the blueline with a veteran that the guys like.</div></div>

My thought behind that is that Yzerman likes to have as much competition on the roster as possible (see TB). There's also been talk recently that Yzerman may be looking for both a 2C and a top 6 winger this offseason. He knows Palat, who would be a veteran on this team, and another Czech to compliment Zadina & Vrana.

Lastly, Palat can play down the lineup if Zadina/Berggren force it (see 2023-24 roster): https://www.capfriendly.com/armchair-gm/team/3265809

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hockyluv21</b></div><div>Realistically, Necas is only available for a true forward upgrade. Malkin would count as one if he's willing to sign a high-dollar 1 year deal, but IMO the most likely one to consider is Fiala.</div></div>

Why not just keep Trocheck and replace Nino with Rust or, if you can afford him, Forsberg?

I would have to think Detroit would be lining up for Necas if he were available. But that's probably wishful thinking.

Love it. I get annoyed seeing the same bad takes endlessly. PIT trade for Pettersson? That's fine because, while it's exhausted, it's not a terrible valuation.

Petry? Exhausted and terribly unrealistic. Those are the ones that need to go.

Thread: If Habs take Cooley or even if they dont

If NJ were to trade #2, wouldn't they be looking for a young roster player as part of the return? I imagine they're looking to start competing sooner than waiting for another prospect to develop, no?

Thread: Cursed Wheel Team

This is kinda funny to have to say it... but Bunting is older than our core players, with the only exception being Bertuzzi (who I am open to trading due to his age and back injury history). So, while that's a price I'd pay (though TOR would not accept), I'm not sure I want Bunting.

Thread: Zadina

I'd rather see what Zadina's got with a new coach who doesn't throttle his playing time to bottom 6 minutes over taking this trade. We have plenty of LD prospects who are ready for a tryout and Kravstov is a project.

In this case, #8 + #40 can afford us #5.

Add in #52 and we could get 4oa + a 3rd in return.

I'd rather keep the pick or package it with a player/prospect to move up instead of wasting our 2nds.

Agree, Wings pass. Kase is unfortunately one hit away from retirement, so a 4th + 6th isn't enough for Suter.

Thread: If Detroit wants the 2nd overall pick to grab Cooley or Wright

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RedWing9119</b></div><div>According to Eric Tlusky's chart which I value way more than the model you're using: the value to move up from 8 to 2 is the 14th overall pick. Would you trade Edvinsson or Raymond for the fourteenth overall pick? Come on man; don't be silly. I'll give you Bertuzzi straight up for the pick. Or Hronek and the Washington 2nd for the pick. Or Filip Zadina and the Washington 2nd to go from 8 to 2. Those deals are more than fair.</div></div>

Can you share the link to that chart, please?

Thread: If Detroit wants the 2nd overall pick to grab Cooley or Wright

OK, so...

Pick #2 (NJ 1st) = 12.3 GSVA
Pick #8 (DET 1st) = 6.7 GSVA
Pick #40 (DET 2nd) = 2.1 GSVA

This means DET has to make up 3.5 GSVA to equal that trade value. Here's why I don't <em>completely</em> agree: according to The Athletic's Player Cards, Jack Hughes doesn't even have 3.5 GSVA (pace). So it would take #8 + #40 + (equivalent of Jack Hughes) + 7th round pick to get equivalent value.

I like the chart you shared, but I don't think it's perfectly accurate.

Thread: What would hellebuyck cost

I'm not a WPG guy, but if I had to guess it'd include a good player, young player/prospect, and goalie. So maybe something like Nylander + Sandin/Liljegren + Campbell (sign & trade)? Maybe even a pick on top of that. But it would be a lot because I'm guessing he's one of ~3-4 untouchable guys in WPG.

Thread: Good Deal

Very interesting. The only way I see Detroit doing something along these lines would be if they could acquire a real good goalie prospect via trade (such as Knight, for example). Primeau is meh and I don't see Cossa getting traded.
