    Looking ahead at expansion draft

    So, with Smith not signing here's our D protection: DD, Green, Jensen. You now protect Nielsen, AA, Mantha and Z up front. Which other forwards do you protect? I go with Abby, Helm and Tatar.

    Arizona may need his cap, Datsyuk falls off this year and I belive prongers as well...
  6. Yamamoto and Suzuki. If they fall a bit. They are currently rising though, may have to acquire another 1st to snag Yamamoto. Then take Suzuki with our high 2nd.
  7. Here's what went on behind closed doors. KH- Brendan, we want you, here's 3x $3.5M... BS- No, I need 4 at $4.5M... KH- ok, we'll trade you, you can go where you can prove you are worth it, maybe get yourself a Cup, then if you prove you're worth it, we'll offer you 4 at $4.8M, if you still want to be a Red Wing, we'll see you in July.

    Oh, you know him then?
  9. I was never a huge fan, but wouldn't have minded keeping him and dumping Ericsson. Great return though. No brainer. Collect as many picks as possible!
  10. He's probably in Vancouver today, could be hard to get him there on time...

    Blah, he's not even in my rear view mirror anymore....he'll never play again, so his salary and roster spot will always be available. But, if a team needs to hit the basement floor, give us a 7th for his contract.

    Don't stop at Vanek! Trade Nyquist, Howard, Ericsson.....Trade trade trade! We're out of the playoffs, streak over, blow it out, let's do the late 80' early 90's over again! Build a core and become dynasty!

    Normally a mainstay at Oakland Hills this time of year, Ken Holland has been mysteriously missing... This just in, we found him! Poor tires!

    I think if we end up with 3 1sts, we need to turn one of those plus a player for something we can use immediately. Not for a playoff run, but a young player that will make this team better and be on the team full time.

    Wonder what the price for Duclair is...

    All these D-Men moving, it's going to be oh well on Smith. All the teams that had said they were interested in him are acquiring others... Holland may be screwing the pooch as we speak.

    Our luck tomorrow, all of Vanek, Green, Smith and Ott will go down to injury....then I guess we're standing pat! Honestly though, as a precaution, I'd like to see all players who have been mention in trades to have the night off!

    Jensen Signed 2 YR Extension

    Atta boy Jensen! I knew you could do it!

    With the prices this year, just think how many more 1st we could get! Vanek, Green, Nyquist, Sheahan(rumored) hell that's 4 more right there!
  20. LeftWinger

    2017 NHLTrade Deadline Discussion

    I wouldn't say we NEED to trade them, but prices are high this deadline so getting a nice return for them would be great! If indeed there are contenders wanting Vanek, they are willing to outbid each other, get the highest bid.

    Looking ahead at expansion draft

    Well if that's the case, then one of Abby and Helm get left unprotected. Either way, I think any one of those four would get taken before XO or Sproul.

    2017 NHLTrade Deadline Discussion

    Could you imagine if we got a 1st for Sheahan? Crazy! The only thing that may hold some water is the lack of strength in this year's draft class. But it would be great!

    Looking ahead at expansion draft

    Listen, you protect Nielsen, AA, Mantha, Zetterberg, then any 3 of Helm, Abby, Tatar, Nyquist, Glendening, Sheahan. What are the odds he leaves Abby and Helm unprotected? So now you choose one of Nyquist or Tatar. If either of those two are available, odds are they're not looking at XO or Sproul. Not saying it couldn't happen, but I think they'd ****** one of the forwards up first. They curse word filter censored my word! It rhymes with catch, but with a SN.

    I called it a while ago, Vanek for Fowler! Get it Done!

    Looking ahead at expansion draft

    If the trade Smith, I would be perfectly OK with them protecting DD, Green and Jensen. SO happy for my boy Jensen for coming so far! Especially after all the slack I took a couple of seasons ago! ...but $3.5 to $3.75M for Smith? No thanks.
