http://www.tsn.ca/off-season-game-plan-detroit-red-wings-1.754664 This article lost all credibility after reading about the potential of trading Z, unlike that part the rest of it ain't all garbage

the Aves trade their underachieving 24-year-old Captain to Detroit for spare parts....In other news, I just traded my entire stock portfolio (fax machine and paper companies) for a million shares each of Amazon and Apple stock

This thread is funnier than hell.

Fair enough.

Let me clarify, even with this potentially weak draft class I dont believe Green can be flipped for a 1st rounder unless the Wings offered up more. I agree, the teams picking between 20-30 probably have no reason to trade for him now.

This team needs to be damn near blown up, thus I am favor of trading Green to move up. However, after last year's piss poor performance and his hefty contract I sadly dont believe he's that movable. After all Im pretty sure you cant get the max value on a declining asset, unless some crazy buyer shows up. That being said, we still have some assets that would hold some value in the offseason market…

Hague or Foote?

Its sounding to me that because of our overall positional problems (aside from wing) the Wings are just going to have to select the best overall available player. Kinda a shame considering this potentially weak draft class. All Im hoping for is we shed some serious salary this offseason...like $8-10 million

So has anybody caught any recent of the Griffins games? Cuz the stats are looking good on some of these fellas.

Anyone seen him in action in 2017 AHL Playoffs? Cuz like the rest of the team he appears to be kicking ass.

Glad Im not a Stars fan right now cuz I'd be pretty pissed off at management for having around $16 million in cap space tied up to three goaltenders. In addition, I think the terms of 6 years is a terrible idea.

So any updates on Axel these days?

Sheahan for a 2nd?

Forwards: Matt Beleskey - Vladislav Namestnikov – Jakob Silfverberg Kris Versteeg – Tomas Plekanec – Lee Stempniak Jiri Hudler – Calle Jarnkrok – Alex Burrows Nail Yakupov – Kevin Hayes – Devante Smith-Pelly Luke Glendening Shawn Matthias Matt Read Colton Sceviour Defense: Trevor Van Riemsdyk – Luke Schenn Jack Johnson – Griffin Reinhart Brayden McNabb – Jonas Brodin Paul Martin Ian Cole Calvin De Haan Alexey Marchenko Luca Sbisa Goalies: - Philipp Grubauer - Calvin Pickard - Linus Ullmark Cap hit of roughly $70 million

I definitely would be interested in that breakdown.

Few more expansion predictions to mull over... http://www.tsn.ca/off-season-game-plan-vegas-golden-knights-1.749346 Gotta say I've read a few of these mock expansion drafts and can't find one I disagree with more than the above. https://capfriendly.com/forums/expansion-draft I highly recommend playing with the above.

So my question is what (realistically) is Howard worth to Calgary, Winnipeg, Nucks, etc.?

I understand our beloved organization is lacking in just about every position but the wing, but aren't defensemen more costly to develop than forwards? If this is true, shouldn't we take the best defenseman in the draft?

I love Rugby and watch any of it whenever its on.
