    Mrazek avoids arbitration... signs 2 year deal

    His arbitration was scheduled for this morning I believe. What happens a lot in these cases are the parties agree arbitration wouldn't benefit either side, and a deal gets done in the hallway. Arbitration can cause resentment, and harm future negotiations. Nah they split the baby, so it was probably a pretty civil negotiation.

    Steve Ott signs 1 year, $800k deal with Detroit

    Sounds like he f**+ed your girlfriend. That's not something to be mad about. Wear it like a badge of honor...
  3. My prediction next up: Quincey 4 years @ 4.5
  4. We should be happy next year with a 1st round exit. That would be a hell of a coaching job by Blashill. You have to think this is going to give the Ilitches more of a reason to "promote" Holland, and bring back the Captain to open the arena. They need some type of product to drive sales beyond the first year...

    Hopefully KH lives by his own words of wisdom today, "less is more"...

    We have a few guys in the system that project to being a 3 or 4. Cholowski has the potential to develop into a #2. If we were to stay at 16 I would have wanted Fabbro.

    Chychrun is not projected to be 1st pairing material which caused him to drop from 2ND overall to 16. It would have been a good trade to drop down 4 spots & pick up an extra second without dumping Datsyuks contract.

    Whether we like it or not we absolutely have to sign a center. If Stamkos says "no thanks" Nielson is the next best option. Nielson + Ladd/Lucic/Okposo + Brower/Martin would fill a lot of holes. If we don't sign Helm we have enough room to add 3 of the above names.

    Karsch is pretty dialed in with sources in the Detroit area. Both college and pro...

    My wish list for 2nd round is Day & Debrincat/abramov.

    I wonder if having the two, second round, picks might allow KH to take a flyer on Day. Then best forward available with the second.

    Yeah I would have rather went with Gauthier or Jones in that spot, but Cholowski could develop into a nice 2nd pairing. He may not be done growing either, plus he is going to a good program who will develop him properly.

    Holland is riding on the reputation Scotty built for him. He not only hasn't made any splash trades, but he hasn't signed a good contract either in the last 8 years. It is going to be more of the same until he either retires, or the Ilitches fire him.

    I could be completely wrong, but his size and skating give me pause. If Bean isn't available I would go with McLeod/Bellows/Jones, or trade down for an extra 2nd/3rd.

    There has been a bit of smoke around local sports radio, along with CBSsports mock draft predicting Dante Fabbro.
