We often talk about adding a physical presence to the blue line that will not cough up the puck too much. Does anybody think that in light of our great spot in the standings, that Carney could be a realistic trade for the Red Wings to Make with the Wild? What would Minny need in return?

I was calling for Carney a couple of years ago along with Salei. He's getting up there so I don't know how good he is anymore. However, I think he's the type of guy the Wings need on defense. Minnesota is going to make the playoffs so they won't be trading him. Witt may be a good option, although he's signed for one more year at $3 million. The Islanders also have a shot at making the playoffs.

Minnesota wont be trading him? If hes so important, why exactly is he been a healthy scratch several times already this season? Hes lost more than a couple steps and is not what he was when he manhandled the Wings offense in 04.

If the Wings wanted to trade for him, they shouldnt offer more than a 3rd/4th round pick. At this point in Carneys career, Id probably even take Lilja over Carney.

Carney doesnt' strike me as an overly physical defenseman. He's basically a slightly bigger version of Chelios at this point in his career. If we're going to make a move for a defenseman, I'd like someone more physical than Carney.

I'm thinking that if the Wings pursue a Minnesota player, it would be Brian Rolston moreso than Carney.
