That doesn't mean he was good, that means the team he was on was good.

Edsjell wasn't playing on a much better league, I'd say both have the same shot at being in the NHL in 3 years. Also even the best undrafted guys generally don't do much in the NHL. For every Rafalaski there are a dozen or more Lebdas and Leinos. Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk

Does this hurt the team somehow? No? Them don't get your panties is a twist. Either he surprises everyone and makes the team or he doesn't with no harm done. At least Holland is still trying after being turned down by the other guys. Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk

The rule has a clause that the league can not suspend a player if they decide not to for the instigator on the last few minutes rule. Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk

People aren't saying avoid at all costs, they're saying he's not worth what he's probably going to get, even if it's not the mega deal; some people are predicting. I'd take Shattenkirk for 3 or 4 years at $4.5 mil or so provided they can clear some dead wood first.

Both those teams severely underachieved in the regular season. A wild card spot is the best the Wings can realistically​ expect. Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk

The NHL has a long history of not suspending star players. It's not a conspiracy against certain teams, it's business as usual. Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk

If you ain't first you're last Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk I thought the point was to win the Cup Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk

The problem is they had no realistic shot at the Cup with or without Nielsen. It was completely unnecessary. Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk

ABC Anybody But Crosby Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk

Every year we hear that guys are going to get a huge deal and they don't. I'm guessing 6 years and just south of $6 mil per. Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk

He will, and it will be a mistake that hurts the rebuild. Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk

Except Holland would rather hold onto Green so they might barely make the playoffs. Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk

No, the whole bill was about $3k. I looked at it. $50 for the aspirin. Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk

Pretty big If.

Dallas's pick would need to be something like Nyquist or Tatar plus the #9. Depending on who goes 1-2 it might be worth it Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk

Sure right after I get back from my date with Emma Watson and Zoe Saldana Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk

Should have started happening 2 or 3 years ago instead of waiting until they had to clear waivers.

I was in the hospital with chest pains, got charged $50 for two aspirin. That's not price gouging? Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk

Any of the young forwards for Myers is wrong. Any of them or Cholowski plus picks other than the #9 or lesser players for a top young D is right. Not hard. Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk

If hospitals and phamacuetical companies weren't allowed to price gouge we wouldn't have issues with health care costs Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk

I don't put little value on prospects, I just think that you need to be willing to move them in the right deal, and that doesn't just mean offers you can't refuse. Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk

Why would Enstrom waive his NMC unless he was unhappy there? Why take that chance? A top 10 pick and a first round pick from 2 years ago tearing up the AHL playoffs is a huge price, no way they'd need to trade both for just Trouba. Almost every time a player is rumored to be available we hear "the team is expecting (insert huge package here*) and they almost never get that much. Schultz only returned a 3rd rounder. Larson brought Hall, but that looks like addition by subtraction for the Oilers. Jones for Johansen Blowmeester brought a conditional first, but with a 4th and 2 lesser prospects. Compare those to something like Svechnikov/AA with a 2nd and Jensen/XO. That's a pretty good package. *That's what she said

If Trouba is available, the Jets will likely want either a higher end D prospect or a good young forward in return. Unless they like Cholowski, Detroit doesn't have the D. I don't think they'd want Tatar or Nyquist without something else really good going back. Of the younger guys I'd prefer the one who hasn't proven he's an NHL player. I'd only move Larkin I'd it was more or less a one for one swap, because he's the only potential high end center. Mantha and AA have shown NHL ability, but if the Jets wanted one I'd do it. I'd only include the #9 pick if they also sent their first plus another pick. Insert any other young D potentially available because of the expansion draft. The older or less proven they are the lower the price I'd pay. Myers wouldn't get Svechnikov​, Mantha, or Larkin from me. Maybe AA straight up, but I'd probably want something else. The bottom line is Detroit has lots of wingers and only one D with top pair potential. Trade what you have for what you need. Farmer Bob has a lot of corn, Farmer Joe has wheat. Bob gives Joe 40 bushels of corn and gets 40 bushels of wheat and both are happy. Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk
