One of the best things about the 08-09 season...

[Guest Dump-N-Thump]

...will easily be no trade deadline drama.

We got our team and chances are good we are gonna have to go wire-to-wire.

Bring it on!

I love trade deadline speculation.

I love trade deadline speculation.

Yeah, but not usually this early...

[Opie 308]

No. You are thinking of Brad Stuart

NO they both have no movement clauses.

No. You are thinking of Brad Stuart

No I'm not. I'm 99.9% sure Hossa has a no-movement clause.

[WingNut 25 5]

An injury could force the Wings hand but with the depth of the organization right now, I don't see anything happening at the deadline. Hank isn't leaving Detroit. I haven't even given that a 2nd thought.

[Chunkylover 26]

I don't know who else we could really want or need, or who we'd be willing to give up in a trade.

Luongo, Bouwmeester, Ovechkin... so yeah, they'd be nice to have but in the offseason we got Stuart and Hossa, and got a competent backup goalie. Where are there any holes?

We'd have to lose Zetterberg and Datsyuk, or Lidstrom and Osgood before we started to worry about a rental player.
