    The Hockey Writers, who are often out to lunch, suggested Lawson Crouse as a trade target...  a big power forward that can score... sign me up!

    Works for me, I'm game that's for sure.

    Well, if Edvinsson is making this team next season, we're gonna have to either let Walman walk or move someone to the right side.

    Chiarot can play the rightside, Pretty sure that won't stop Yzerman from resigning jake Walman. If he can keep him for a reasonable deal.

    Literally only SY associates are in on Bertuzzi? Holland, Nill, and Brisebois. Strange.

    Supposedly Calgary and Toronto as well, Along with Florida. So not all Yzerman associates.

    Jakob Chychrun was a healthy scratch tonight, So it sounds like a Chychrun trade deal is getting close.

    Kailor Yamamoto is returning Wednesday to the Edmonton to face Detroit. So Jesse Pulujarivi either traded or too waivers by Tuesday.

    Well Horvat just got 8x$8.5M, what does this mean for Larkin?

    If anything, It definitely means that Larkin is a $9,000,000 per player. And probably will be playing elsewhere next fall. If he truly wants to remain in Detroit and i think he does. Than Yzerman should offer him the 8 x $8,500,000 Horvat deal and be done with it.

    Larkin will be a Bruin next season. You heard it here first.

    I'll bet you you're wrong, There's absolutely noway Boston can afford Larkin. They've around $21,000,000 to spend and Pastrnak will cost them between $11,000,000 to $12,000,000 per plus they've $4,500,000 performance bonuses that need to be paid out to both Bergeron and Krejci and they need to sign 7 players. No way are they going to afford Larkin. If i'm Larkin i don't take anything less than $10,000,000 per to play there.

    FYI Boston has the oldest core in the league average 30 on their forward core 28 on defense. They need to get younger not older. Once Bergeron, Krejci and Marchand are gone that team will be tanking. Larkin would be a fool to leave a young up and coming Red Wings team for an aging Bruins team who's window is closing fast.

    Wouldn't surprise me to see Walman traded by the deadline.

    Yeah if we get a 2nd for him.

    Yzerman has been eyeing him since his junior days, Pretty sure Yzerman will resign him. he's been really good with Mo Seider.

    According to Woodward Sports, Yzerman is not budging on his Larkin offer and will basically play the Stamkos game. Man if we lose Larkin for nothing because of Yzerman's ego...

    Stop spreading misinformation, I just watched the Woodward Sports episode in question, Under anytime did they ever say that Yzerman wouldn't budge. it wasn't even brought up at all.

    How would Woodward Sports know what Yzerman will or will not do, Outside of D Mac Woodward sports is run by a bunch of hacks who no nothing about hockey. The latest offer from Yzerman to Larkin according to Darren Dreger is 8 x $8,500,000 which is way more than enough for Larkin and it's right in his comparable ranges. Woodward sports is a joke most of them outside of Dmac are a bunch of idiots and they don't no a single thing of what Yzerman will or will not do.

    https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.mlive.com/redwings/2023/01/whats-the-most-likely-outcome-in-red-wings-dylan-larkin-contract-talks.html%3foutputType=amp

     

    Im looking at this like this: SY offered 7.5 x 8.  Larkin's agent wants 9 x 8.  They will eventually settle on 8.25 x 8.  But SY will get the benefit of making sure Larkin doesnt have an injury through the end of the year that will impact his next season/career.  I think this is just good business by Stevie.

    Yzermans original offer to Larkin was 8x8 it's now up to 8x8.5 per Darren Dreger So we shall see.

    The dudes from the Winged Wheel Pod are reporting that Larkin's initial ask was 9.5-9.7 and Yzerman's initial offer was 8.4 million. There's no reason to think this thing doesn't get done at 9-9.1 million. Makes you wonder if this isn't all a big ploy to influence future negotiations. Like, if SY is willing to hardball his captain over 500K then if you're a young guy or a depth guy you're going to think twice about pushing too hard.

    Anyway, take it for what it's worth. That podcast is rightfully criticized around here (and it should be) but they do seem pretty plugged into the organization. Not hard to imagine that they have a source.

    That came from Darren Dreger who was on the Friedman Marek podcast, And Dreger was the one that mentioned that Yzerman opened up with a 8 x $8,000,000 offer to Dylan Larkin and Larkins camp came back at 8 x $9,500,000.

     

    And they also mentioned that Yzerman is currently talking to Bertuzzi's agent on a new deal.

    Vrana going full cokehead f u c k e d the Yzerplan up.  What a disaster.  If we could dump all our players and go expansion draft style in 2023, I would.

    You can blame Kuznetsov for making Vrana a full blown crackhead from his days with the Capitals. I'm even surprised that Kuznetsov is still playing hockey.

    Ryan Merkley has requested a trade out of SJ. 22 year old RHD drafted in the 1st round. Has played well in AHL but only 39 games in the NHL so far and didnt do much. 

    Zadina for Merkley straight up? 

    I'd do that in a heartbeat, We need an upgrade on our RD.

    Walstedt is in the AHL though

    Wallstedt also played against men over in the SHL for a couple of seasons. So he had a head start against Cossa. And it's not like he's putting up spectacular number either.
