I was just looking at the fact that he is suspended without pay. Wonder what is going on... anyhow, lets say you're trading AA and are interested in Andersson, what else would we have to add? AA plus what? to NYR for Andersson

https://www.tsn.ca/winnipeg-jets-claim-g-eric-comrie-back-off-waivers-1.1415759 Jets claimed him. I hate Jimmy Howard.

I cannot believe they waived Comrie and Not one of the s***ty guys. Howard should stay right in GR.

I do believe he is coaching The World Junior team this tourney.

I'd be good with just Dumping Helm. I sure would like to see Igor as our coach though. One of the smartest minds in hockey. I also wouldn't mind seeing Nielsen bought out, but we know that won't happen. playoffs, ya pipedream, but one must dream.

Hossa vs. Franzen

you seem to know a lot of facts about him. Professional NHL scouts see him quite differently, maybe you should make a phone call and bring them up to speed.

AA is not being traded. why do you think that he would be on the block if he was playing like last year? the guy is one of our best scorers. if he was playing like last season he'd be leading our team, why in earth would he be on the block?

AA is not being traded. He's a 30 goal scorer having a bad season mostly because of who Blashill plays him with. You don't just trade away one of your best scorers because of 1 season. and I agree, none of our UFA's will garner any interest. If we could dump Nielsen and Helm, that would be a great TDL.

Fabbri or Zadina....seems like this is Mantha or AA.

just wait until we have a real coach. Those two guys will no longer suck. what's AA supposed to.do with Helm as linemate? In June, Get Igor in here as HC, get Datsyuk to come back for a season, he'll center AA & Perlini and turn them around. Dump Helm and Nielsen for a pick at the TDL. Draft in the top 2, 20-21 we make the playoffs.

I'd keep Fabbri, only because if I'm trading one, Zadina will bring back more in return.

Larionov should be our next coach, and Datsyuk should come back to put butts in the seats. Nielsen should be gone. I love AA, but if Wings get a top 2 pick, he is in danger of being dealt, if it involves a D-man especially. The way it's been this year, I don't see anyone wanting Green or Daley at the TDL.

neither are going anywhere, unless Zadina is traded for a #1 D. but I don't see that happening, nor Fabbri not re-signing.

What about Perfetti? I like your list, but man its dangerous taking a G that high...but we must trust Steve if he does!

do you think we are going to have to put up with Blashill for the entire season? One would hope, if there is going to be a change, that it will happen before the TDL, so the new coach has input on players moving out and possibly moving in/up. I SOOOOOOO wish that Larionov is going to be our next HC. We need to get away from EVERYTHING Babcock related and Blashill is just Babcock Lite, just not as good at coaching. He treats certain players like s*** (ie AA) and uses the wrong players in the wrong places....disney.com and Helm have ZERO business in the top 9.

I know you guys made fun of my want for us to draft Liam Kirk, but I would still love for Yzerman to trade for his rights. He is unsigned by the Yotes, he is playing in Peterborough and is second in team scoring with 36 points (15 goals) in 29 games. I know it's Jr. but with our lack of scoring up front (he is listed as a LW/C) we could use some more options IMO. Is he better than what we have in GR or in the pipeline already? I am not sure, but more depth means more competition, plus continue trading away Hollands players and getting his own. I'd do Ehn or Turgeon for Kirk.

Jimmy Howard or Bernier for Justin Kirkland.

I'll take it. now get Taylor Hall

can we fire Blashill tonight?

do you want to see all the youth back in Rapids? No.

Well with Steve making moves, dumping Holland's players for his own, maybe someone should make a thread with a #DeadPool type theme, except, of course, the player would be traded or waived not dead... We could have a point system or maybe even some cash flow! I would, but don't have the time or imagination to make it the best it could be! Anyhow, good on Steve for taking benign players and turning them for players that potentially could be part of our core! Plus they're all RFA's after this season (so far) so they are playing for their contracts! No commitments after this season! Next up dump some (more) vets please!

AA trade value has never been lower. Keep him, hooe he starts scoring again and when we're WAY out of the playoffs at the TDL turn him for a 1st. If we can't get a 1st, hold on to him until after we win the draft lottery, then he becomes more expendable and we can package him along with a pick or two for a player we need.

But the whole team dentist thing!
