Is this the same Brian Burke that tried to build a team around Dion Phaneuf, Phil Kessel, Tyler Bozak, and Joffrey Lupul?

Marc Staal’s reaction to the trade ...

Imagine being this narrow minded... You won't watch the program because they're going to talk about Perfetti? You know who else they'll talk about? Every other possible option at 4th overall... I want the Wings to take whoever is available between Stutzle or Raymond, but I'd actually prefer to watch coverage on the players I'm not as sold on. You know, to maybe get a different perspective...

Link Fabbri gonna get a look at center this season.

Pretty sure that in any random draft that a pro GM and pro scouts will get a lot more right than you do. Just cuz I get a few strikes at the bowling alley, doesnt make me a better bowler than the professionals.

Experts are projecting it will be a 5th rounder.

What?!?!? No team is giving up anything close to a 1st round pick for negotiating rights. It'll likely be a mid round pick. My point was that I don't think Yzerman should sign him at all, never mind trading for his rights. 8 years at $10M?!?!? Holy massive overpayment...

I really hope Yzerman stays out of this... Unless Krug wants to take a major home town discount (I doubt it), no thanks...

I would have done it. Then just buried Smith in GR.

Stevie is on here listening so keep the ideas coming .....LOL https://www.nhl.com/news/red-wings-acquire-marc-staal-from-rangers/c-319200544 in the link he said... "For the Red Wings, we are in a position, we do have cap space that we can use it. I hope to use it wisely, but one way we would like to try and use it is to acquire future assets should any teams be in a position where they really have to move contracts and don't have any other options. Nobody wants to give up picks or prospects, but sometimes you have to do what you have to do to make your team better, and we're trying to ... I don't want to say take advantage of that, but find teams that are in a position that need to do that. Again, we're trying to add picks or prospects and at the same time ice a team."

Na i want cholowski to get some playing time , lindstrom? I cant see how bowey isnt dealt for a pick which is more than fine and i possibly trade nemeth as well if need be and try and fetch a pick this draft

Trevor Daley nor Jonathan Ericsson not returning https://detroitsportsnation.com/steve-yzerman-confirms-2-veterans-will-not-return-to-red-wings/ddrysdale/detroit-red-wings-news/09/26/2020/234523/?fbclid=IwAR2LCtYC09sOqvzaWUiuieHftWouuSHxV5biuttrLoO4R_PmX7BqrlUHXqk

I see CatBoy is a vessel for your inner 12 year old. Nice.

If it was 5.7 x multiple remaining years, then maybe. People act like GMs throw 1st rounders away like candy. The Carolina Marleau type trades actually don't happen often.

It means Ericson and Daley are gone. We likely go to camp with bowey and biega. Both are fine as a #6/7 but my guess is Biega is odd man out if all dmen are healthy.

Stevie starting to use that cap space. Also got a dman that is an improvement over guys like big rig and Daley.
