stevkrause 1,247 Report post Posted February 16, 2009 I predict that as of March 5th - -Lebda OR Meech will have a new home either for a pick/prospect or as part of a package -Emmerton and a pick to Atlanta for Havelid that's about all I could see really happening... I don't see a goalie trade happening, as we would essentially have to waive Conklin or Osgood to make room, or carry 3 goalies, which I do not see happening... now what I would LIKE to see happen - Package Meech and a pick for Chris Neil from Ottawa, and try like hell to re-sign him in the off-season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SweWings 45 Report post Posted February 16, 2009 I really don't see how Detroit would go after a goalie and I don't really see how they could improve on forward so yeah a veteran defender would be cool. Preferably a defensive defender but anyone that is responsible in all zones with some kind of upside (defense, offense, physical, etc.) would be cool.

He is one of our best young forwards. I guess the only one who is likely to fit top 6 role. however, I agree with Meech + 3rd for Neil.

Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted February 16, 2009 Chris Neil/Gary Roberts/Owen Nolan or someone of that ilk is a Wing. That's pretty much it, I dont see a goalie move happening or trading Fillpula, not at the deadline at least. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

redwing_sparty 0 Report post Posted February 16, 2009 if they have a hossa contract getting wrapped up, then i could see flip being moved. i like him but logically if u have hossa u really dont need him, and he can earn as much or more elsewhere Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Booster313 138 Report post Posted February 17, 2009 A depth defensemen or forward if anything...unless they get Hossa or Franzen signed...then they could possibly move Flip for a like player who's contract expires after this year...that was we don't hurt our chances of winning a cup this year by loosing someone off the roster but we still have cap space come years end.
