    6/22 GDT - 2018 Entry Draft

    don't post here much but i figured this could be a pivotal moment we look back on to the wings turnaround. wings were gifted a top 3 pick tonight. hopefully this is the beginning of the next wings resurgence

    there is not a chance that holland would be able to get all three. it's going to be one of the three. most likely nielson if they can't get stamkos since they really need another center qualifying offers are a set amount based on last years salary. You can't negotiate a qualifying offer

    Lesser FA players.

    justin schultz wasn't qualified by the pens and is a UFA. could be a low risk/ high reward signing

    just getting rid of that albatross contract is something. I don't think a team would take a bag of pucks for him right now

    Alexander Radulov: Wings on short-list of desired teams

    radulov's agent claims he is still a free agent and hasn't signed in the KHL yet it would make zero sense to sign before July 1st

    you cannot offer 8 years even if you traded for his rights only the team he played for during the season is allowed to sign for 8 years. And after July 1st, even tampa won't be able to sign to 8 years

    nobody is taking ericsson unless you are overpaying to get rid of him. that is one of the worst contracts in the league

    if bishop is truly looking for a 7 year, 7 mil contract, howard looks a lot more attractive for calgary. a lot less risk and should be had for cheap

    yeah it's the latest hockey news issue in which they did a top 10 gm fantasy draft. holland was 2nd and his disciples nill and yzerman were 3rd and 4th respecitvely if stamkos wants to sign here and holland still refuses to trade the contract, then yes he needs to go

    trading for a player's rights is a waste of assets imo. florida will have given up two draft picks if they do sign yandle. when they could have just waited a week and gave up nothing

    Datsyuk Announcement to Officially Leave NHL

    why? if anything he might want to wait until the interview period so he can see if stamkos is even interested in coming to detroit

    Datsyuk Announcement to Officially Leave NHL

    because at the time of signing the contract, datsyuk was still an elite player. according to holland, datsyuk did not want to do one year deals. which as datsyuk said in the mitch album article says was a mistake and that he should have taken the one year deals holland has made a lot of mistakes the last few years, but the datsyuk situation is not one of them

    Datsyuk Announcement to Officially Leave NHL

    he only got the option after he informed the team he wanted to retire essentially as soon as he signed the 3 year contract. pavel screwed up and should have taken one year deals

    Datsyuk Announcement to Officially Leave NHL

    now we know why datsyuk stayed last season Helene St. James ‏@HeleneStJames 3m3 minutes ago Holland said Wings told Datsyuk they'd fight him playing in KHL 15-16, agreed if he honored that, accept him leaving this summer.

    Datsyuk Announcement to Officially Leave NHL

    ken holland said pavel originally wanted a 5 year deal. so we can put all this "holland pushed him into a long deal nonsense" to rest Ansar Khan @AnsarKhanMLive Holland said ex agent Greenstin wanted 5 yr deal. Holland only comfortable with 3 yrs.Said Datsyuk might have left if he offered only 1 year

    Datsyuk Announcement to Officially Leave NHL

    datsyuk is my favorite wings player of all time but it's a shame it all went down like this. could have very easily avoided all this by signing one year deals best of luck to pavs in russia

    Official 2016 Detroit Red Wings Offseason Thread

    i believe they are allowed to trade his contract. However they cannot trade the cap hit once they terminate the contract. Sounds to me like holland is doing datsyuk a favor by terminating the contract so that there are no issues between the NHL and KHL transfer agreements kind of ridiculous holland would do that for datsyuk considering datsyuk is the one bailing on the contact. or holland is unwilling to pay the price to move the contract to another team

    Cap may drop

    cap space for tampa isn't an issue right now. it's next year and beyond when they have to resign several key RFA's

    holland has wanted to wheel and deel for the past few years. but then we always hear the same "the prices are too high" excuse every summer. i will believe it when i see it
