If Hudler returns who is going to leave the team and who is going to stay ? what do you think the lines will look like with him back ?

Franzen-Datsyuk-Holmstrom
Cleary-Hudler-Zetterberg ($30,470,655) thats salaries as they are this year also without Hudlers contract.
Williams-Filppula-Bertuzzi?(he hasn't played bad lately a little soft though)
Eaves-Draper-Helm

No way we keep Williams over Miller. I also think the Wings will explore other options this summer before resigning Bersoftie.

I think they will keep Williams over Miller just because he is a better goal scorer but hopefully Abby comes up in Millers place. I actually think minus how soft he is this season Bertuzzi has played pretty well saying all the injuries.

Williams has been doing well since he came back from injury.

Miller is probably more expendable, since this team has many lower line checkers and those guys aren't hard to find around the NHL.


Also, Babcock loves that right handed point man on the PP thing.

Hopefully Hudler.

Not that I hate Hudler, but I'd rather spend 5 million on a bonafide top 6er than 3 million on someone who hasn't proven himself in the top 6.

I agree.

He turned his back on us and now he wants back into the family?


FU Hudler. Go play in Russia you traitor.

[king_malice]

I agree with the turning his back on us part but come on you can't honestly say if you were making 1.15mill and got offered 10mill you wouldn't take it? he is young and made a mistake he probably regretted it right after he left. Babcock said it best when Hudler first left "he's young and money talks".

Sounds like another player on this team... Hudler would be huge on the 2nd unit PP and would fit nicely on the current 2nd line with Z and Cleary.

[Z and D for the C]

Hey I'm not saying he wouldn't. He'd be great to have, but I'd rather spend his money on someone proven on the second line at even strength. You know, like Filppula or Cleary, except better.

Zetterberg Datsyuk Holmstrom (I think he still has a lot to give and should be resigned for cheap)
Franzen Filppula FA
Cleary FA FA
Eaves Helm Draper

And I'm not even sure if we have the cap space, but if we do I'd rather go for a big(ish) name.

I don't like how Hudler handled this whole situation.

But, he wouldn't certainly help this team.

So I'll look past my dislike for him for the betterment of the team.

I agree with this mindset. I think Helm is capable of centering that third line though. Let Draper center Eaves and Abs on the forth line. Whether Huds comes back are not, I still think we need to look into getting a top 6 forward.

[Z and D for the C]

Yeah I do too, in fact I think he should be centering it now. I was just showing the options we have.

First off it would be 2.85. Secondly, Hudler had better than top 6 numbers while playing perdominantly on the 3rd/4th lines and 2nd powerplay time. Who do you have in mind that is better than him that could actually afford? Spare yourself the embarassement and don't try to argue Frolov.

So you wouldn't switch companies if another company offered you more than twice your salary for the exact same job, more responsibility and power, and a boss that didn't underappreciate you?

Allright

Allright

I wouldn't come whining back to it, though.

I'm old school that way.

[king_malice]

No matter what you won't find a guy like Hudler to sign in the off-season 06-07 25pts/07-08 42pts/08-09 57pts and to top it all in 3 seasons he only missed 7 games and this year in the KHL he has 52pts in 53gp i know its the KHL but still. Lets not forget about the chemistry he will already have with this team it would take him what 5-10 games to get it back instead of someone new in the 10-20 game range. Plus who says with the money we could potentially have this off-season we can't have Hudler and a couple other.
