    I think Svechling is listed as both a C and W.

    Remember when Trouba and Fowler were all the rage here? Fowler signed a long term expensive deal, I wonder how Trouba is feeling now that Winnipeg is doing so well? We really don't hear too much about him being too unhappy anymore.

    I agree with this. If we aren't landing the NHL ready Dahlin, I am kind of doubting Holland wants to draft another D that may take 3-4 years to debut. I like Boqvist and Hughes, but are they going to step in a become our top guy next year? Dahlin would. If Svechling is NHL ready and he is there, its almost a no brainer to draft him. I have visions of Svech and Svechling debuting next season and quite frankly, outside of not being twins, they could be our Russian version of the Sedins.

    Wings Recall Hicketts

    YAY! Who's hurt? I'd be surprised if they just brought him up for any other reason. Maybe Kronwall is calling a season... Oh wait, NM, I think I read that Daley was day to day somewhere...

    I agree. There's been more than a few times that I didn't know they were on.

    of course Mr. Process is citing injuries as the issue...Hey Blashcock, the team right now is better than the team with Helm/Abby or Glenny on it. Damn this guy has no ******* clue...

    All time low, less than one full page. I think us fans are tired of Holland and Blashill's process.

    No, you should know that the "NHL" games are full of unrealistic trades that could never happen because they are usually very lopsided in one direction. None of those trades are lopsided nor unrealistic returns. Just stick to covering the Federal League, the NHL is far too advanced for you. I know ALL of those trades will not happen, but if any one or few of them did, the return(s) are not unrealistic. Hence, no NHL 18. BTW, I don't play any of the NHL games, I think the last one my son had was 09 and none prior to that. The last one I owned and played was 94.

    Ok, this is simple. Let's say, we trade away Tatar, Nyquist, XO, Green, Ericsson, Howard and Mrazek. Abby, Helm and Glen are still hurt. That Leaves AA - Larkin - Frk Bertuzzi - Z - Mantha Booth - Nielsen - Turgeon Witowski (who can actually be the 7th D as well) DD - Daley Kronwall - Jensen Halak (in the Howard Deal) Now, looks like we need three forwards, two defensemen and a goalie. We do not want to deplete GR, but we do have options. Of course I am getting a few from GR, lets say Coreau, Hicketts, Puempel, Street. The Walleye only have two of our contracted players, Machovsky and Nastasiuk, who can come to GR and not deplete Toledo. We also have a D on loan in Europe, Libor Sulak, who we could bring over to help fill the empty spots. Also, you're getting Foote back in the Green deal and he would replace Hicketts in GR. Puempel and Street will only be up until Helm, Abby or Glen come back, like I said Witowski can double up as the extra forward or extra D. So lets see: AA - Larkin - Frk Bertuzzi - Z - Mantha Street - Nielsen - Booth Witkowski - Turgeon - Puempel DD - Daley Kronwall - Jensen Hicketts - Sulak Halak Coreau Full team iced. It's entirely possible and doable, but of course highly unlikely. But for Gits and Shiggles, this is how it could work without depleting GR.

    Pit, Vegas and STL are looking to bolster their wing position. The price for Kane is astronomical, Tatar and Nyquist would cost tons less. Not saying a trade going to happen for sure, but teams that are looking for a scoring winger to help them over the top, are going to call about those two. Let's just hope Holland keeps the "ask" price down so we can actually collect some picks!

    You're already giving up the playoffs, you'll get Halak back in trade, bring up Coreau. Next season, go with resigning Halak and stick with that combo unless some other goalie presents himself in the summer. Improve your D and let the better, younger kids develop more at the G spot.

    No i mean address it and get the names together that'll be sold come deadline. Most definitely hold out until teams come lining up.

    How about Green to Tampa for a 2nd and Foote, Tatar to Pit for a 1st, Nyquist to Vegas for a 2nd, Howard to Isles for Halak and a 4th, Mrazek to EDM for a 3rd, XO to MTL for a 4th, Ericsson to DAL for a 5th. That would give us two 1sts, four 2nds, three 3rds, three 4ths, one 5th and two 6ths. That's 15 picks, Foote and Halak along with a ton of cap space for next season.

    It's time for the sale to officially be addressed. Trade all of Green, Howard, Mrazek, Nyquist, Tatar and Ericsson. Get an upcoming ufa goalie back, couple of prospects and multiple picks. It's time.

    SoI was watching the NHL INsiders on TSN and they seem to think that Green will be THE hot commodity at the deadline. LeBrun said teams will be lining up to pay for his services, Tampa being one of them willing to pay up for him! I smell a 1st AND a prospect coming our way! How about a 1st and Cal Foote or maybe Alex Volkov? I can imagine a line of Svech Svech and Volkov! Lil Svech is a RW/C! Of course I'd rather draft D with our 1st. Also they say the price for Kane will be at least 4 assets including a 1st and an NHL player. Pitt interested but may not want to pay the hefty price, BUT are desparatley looking to acquire a scoring winger! Nyquist or Tatar anyone? Won'tcost 4 assets that is for sure! Pick/prospect is about it I believe!
