    2018 Prospect Tournament and Training Camp

    So are we now including Mantha in a deal for Karlsson?

    But if he wouldn't want to come here via UFA, then there is no way we'd make a list of approved teams to be traded to. You can pretty much guarantee that whatever extension he signed would have a clause in it so he can control where he doesn't go. If we have zero chance to sign him UFA, then why would we be a place he'd allow a trade to?

    So, what you're saying is, if The Wings trade for him, they have zero chance of re-signing him. And before you say sign and trade, guarantee Karlsson will have a clause to which he gives Ottawa a list of teams. So, if you're saying Detroit has zero chance at him as a UFA, then we surely will not be on his approved list.

    Swap the picks, 2019 2nd and 2020 1st, and maybe we'll have the makings of a deal.

    For that price, I'll wait to see if he becomes UFA. Im not passing up possible Jack Hughes or even a top 5 for Karlsson. ...besides, if they're telling a team they have to have Ryan's contract, then that will drive the price down, not up.

    You do not trade the 2019 1st. Period. Especially for a UFA rental and a highly overpaid Bobby Ryan. Let alone the package you're dealing away.

    Nah, not yet. The article didn't say he was a bust, just a lot to prove. I'll have a crow wing for me saying he was a Calder candidate last year. I'd say he may win it this year, but that'll be Zadina. I'm still a fan of both him and Hague and hope they both make the NHL. I'd still love to have either of them in our organization. But, I am really pulling for Rasmussen to take off this year.

    if a team comers asking about Daley this TDL, I definitely move him. Next TDL, Green. I don't see anybody asking about E, so let him play out his contract and then bid adieu. Either way, NONE of those players can be on this team in October 2020.

    Yzerman vs Fedorov. Which one was better?

    Every time I watch a video or interview with Yzerman, it makes me crazy thinking why he's not part of our organization. I just gave Holland hid props for the draft, but I really hope Yzerman comes home.

    Official 2018 NHL Amateur Entry Draft Discussion Thread

    Just watched this. It's Bobby Mac's final draft ranking. This aired a week before the draft. It's no wonder they say Detroit won the draft, Zadina was ranked #4, Valeno #14 and McIssac #26. That's three 1st rounders there folks! It remains to be seen how they (and Berggren) shake out, but I really have to give Holland an A+ here.

    Not so sure. As of now, they still have $27M in cap next season. I am sure Laine will get Eichel money, but they may very well still have enough room to sign Trouba. But you still may be right considering they have to sign or promote 12 players next off season. I would venture to say it is definitely the end for Tyler Meyers though. Unless they go with him instead of Trouba! Queue up the TDL Trouba rumors!

    2019 NHL Winter Classic

    IMO, they should spread it around more. Fine, Notre Dame, Chicago, cool, but instead of having yet another multiple appearance, bring in Columbus, Nashville or Tampa, Florida, Colorado, Dallas...you get it. I'm actually surprised we haven't seen a "SunBelt Series" involving the southern teams. I actually prefer the traditional New Years Eve game.

    Maybe I should've put up a troll? The post was referring to fishing for someone to take the bait. Which is what he was doing to begin with, baiting, which is well against forum rules. There's no flawed logic. Just a baiting attempt with off topic posts.

    Jags Jalen Ramsey Says He Could Make The NHL With 6 Months Training

    2018-2019 Opening Night Roster - Dedicated to BlueAdams!

    https://www.tsn.ca/blashill-not-expecting-zetterberg-to-play-1.1163436 Dang. I guess that's not all that's been said about it.

    2018-2019 Opening Night Roster - Dedicated to BlueAdams!

    So, now that all of you are on the same dial as I am/was with Zetterberg, what do you say for lineups? I'm going with my original (except Larkin at a bit more cap hit) with Rasmussen, Zadina and Hronek being the roster winners. I know Blashill said he will put AA at 3rd line center, so that'll change things up a bit.

    We all agreed that KFQ was more than worth a 1st round pick. "He knows our system."

    Zetterberg's status in 2 years. MOD WARNING PAGE 6

    Honestly, Yzerman never announced during his last season, that it was his last season. He decided after the season was over that he was done. He didn't take one last on ice ovation in what turned out to be his last game at the Joe or last game at other venues. Scotty didn't say anything either until they were celebrating the 02 Cup. Even then, only the TV audience found out, the in person fans didn't know, thus not being able to give him any kind of special ovation either.

    Yes, but does he have a hard shot?
