Mule39 0 Report post Posted March 6, 2006 First of all...it's not gonna happen. Second, they would have to spend probably close to 12 mil a season for those 2 players. I don't se Detroit making pitches for any big name players until the offseason. Hope all you want. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mule39 0 Report post Posted March 6, 2006 Jokinen wouldn't get the ice time in Detroit that he gets in Florida. I'll stick with what we got. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Seth 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2006 Lang, Legace, 1st Rounder, and Hudler for Jokinen and Luongo. how bout not taking on 10-13 million on just two players? this isn't the NFL, NBA or MLB (thank christ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mule39 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2006 Lidstrom will pull in around 8 or 9 mil a season also. If there was no cap then maybe some of these trades would be a little more realistic. I think Jokinen will end up in Ottawa anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

norrisnick 1 Report post Posted March 7, 2006 He cant pull that much. He makes 7.6 and thats the most a player can make. The cap is going up and with that so will the individual limit. That said I don't think Lidstrom is going to demand to max out his contract. He could if he wanted to seeing as he's well on his way to winning a 4th Norris, but I'm going on a hunch. I hope it isn't wishful thinking. peace Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

barnztormre 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2006 Take this for what it's worth, but Minor League News ranked Penner its #6 prospect in the entire AHL, ahead of Hudler at #10. I would SO make that deal... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eva unit zero 271 Report post Posted March 7, 2006 Take this for what it's worth, but Minor League News ranked Penner its #6 prospect in the entire AHL, ahead of Hudler at #10. I would SO make that deal... That site says nothing about prospects in its ranking system...and some of the rankings are out of whack with everything else I have read on the involved prospects. It seems to read more as a rating of current ability than of future potential. Also, for what it's worth, Penner is rated a 6.0C at hockeysfuture...meaning his top-end potential is third line grinder, and he's certainly no lock to hit that. At 23, Penner, is starting to play some of the best hockey he will ever play. in 04-05, Penner scored 28 points in 77 games. He has a total of 89 points in 117 games in two AHL seasons. He has 7 points in 18 games at the NHL level, total ice of 214:36 playing an average of 2 minutes on the PP and 12 minutes total ice time per game. Hudler, by comparison, has played 28:52 in four games (average 7:13) and less than a minute per game on the PP. Hudler has 81 points in 60 games and last season had 34 in 52. That's 115 points in 112 games. Hudler does not have the NHL numbers because he has played less than 30 minutes at the NHL level. Penner's points to ice time ratio would average out to less than a point in 28:52. Penner is also a year and a half older. The only thing he brings to the Detroit Red Wings is size...and that could be acquired for less than Hudler. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
