I know a couple of Wings fans around here would love to see one of those two in Detroit.

I listen to xm in the mornings on the way to work. And these two guys were going on and on this morning about Bobby Ryan to Nashville for Shea Weber. It would be a total long shot, but both are in desperate need. I personally don't see it. You just don't see these mega swap deals during the year like this. I look at these two players, and think if these guys are going to be moved, it will be at the deadline.

Holland won't do it sadly. Although we've looked great as of late, we still need that other guy alongside Datsyuk and Zetterberg to produce.

Larry Brooks says the Rangers are out of the running for Ryan (see twitter). They were believed to be front runners.

[KrazyGangsta]

I'd make a run for Iginla!

[Wings_Dynasty]

Ryan based on age alone.

[Z and D for the C]

I would LOVE Bobby Ryan. Iginla is too old at this point, and makes $7 million. Ryan is 24 and can put up 80 points on a good team. Filppula/Zetterberg/Ryan? s*** yes. Could probably have 80 points from all (yes, all) those players over a season with that line. There is extra blood flow to the middle area of my body just thinking about it.

Ryan based on age alone.

Neither, based on bigger future defensive needs alone. But if defense is shored up then yes, Ryan all day.

[St. Michael (the Red Wing)]

Definitely would rather have Ryan but highly unlikey for us especially winning. Wonder what Anaheim is asking in return? 1st round pick and maybe 2 roster players? IMO I wouldn't be surprised if they are asking for a few draft picks...

I think we have the cap to fill future defensive needs and grab a top 6 forward.

I think we have the cap to fill future defensive needs and grab a top 6 forward.

All depends on the market. If guys like Ericsson are getting 3mil+ contracts, then I wouldn't be so sure about the Wings' spending power.

AlL I'm saying is that I'd rather see the blueline get addressed before bringing in another forward. I know Smith is coming through, but we have a lot more prospects at forward than on defense or even in goal.

i dont think the ducks will move ryan. it was either ryan goes, or the coach goes. we all found out what happened this morning.

Your boy Filppula will likely be traded if we get Ryan.

I doubt the Ducks want Hudler.

[LeftWinger]

Franzen + Hudler for either one...

I would say Hudler, Kindl, pick(s) but this isn't a video game.

[redwingfan19]

It would more likely be Filpulla, Kindl, Tatar, and picks for probably either one of Iginla/Ryan.

Then I guess we won't get Ryan.

[toby91_ca]

I would guess that Ryan is off the market for now after the coaching change.
