If Yandle is available I think Detroit should actively pursue him but I have a hard time seeing Phoenix accepting a trade that they would find beneficial.

Really hope that this isn't our D corps going into next season but if I had to choose a lineup now it would look like this: Lidstrom-Stuart Kronwall-Ericsson Commodore-Kindl/other

The one that got away

Filppula-Datsyuk-Hudler Franzen-Zetterberg-Bertuzzi Homer-Helm-Cleary Miller-Abdelkader-Eaves

Why is Hartford never in the discussion for relocation?

Spaghetti Melted cheese or non-melted cheese

How do you balance a schedule with unbalanced conferences?

Florida gave away too much for him

lol Eklund

So much for Smyth to Calgary

Since I measure temperature in C, neither.... But knowing hot that is definitely 85 Imperial or metric and why?

Definitely not a hitter but he's not horrible defensively either

Doughty is one of the few players that I would extend an offer sheet to

Just have 2 conferences

Jurco could be a great pick pending his development but he kinda reminds me of Filatov for some reason but I hope he develops better than Nikita has to this point.

I wouldn't mind Babchuck

Love the list

I like the Wisnieski option too, just not as much as Bieksa Ya, this doesn't surprise me one bit. I thought getting Bieksa was a little bit of a pipe dream

I would love Burns on the team. That trade isn't bad.

Hate pretzels. The person below me eats too many salty foods.

LOL, what? Yes, generally you sign NTCs or no movement clauses because you don't want to be traded or moved. How is that hard to understand? It perfectly describes what it is. I have yet to hear a "Only trade me to these teams" clause. EDIT: This post does come off as simple minded but the point remains the same. I understand many NTCs have special modifications where the player submits a list of teams that he will not accept a trade to but Jay Bouwmeester does not and that's what started this little troll war we have going

Wow. Interesting idea, but they should either have 4 divisions with divisional playoffs to create rivalries and have more games within that division per year or totally scrap divisions and just have 2 conferences with balanced games and 1-8 seeding

Who here likes pizza? I do

Why don't we try and figure out how Hudler works in this system instead of all these hypothetical trade situations? I think Hudler can work here but I'm not really sure how yet. If he doesn't than good riddance but the focus should be on player development from a team's perspective rather than just trying to trade everyone and honestly, this is an area that the Red Wings organization does very well at.

Please do not sign Richards, spend that money on a top end D man if we can
