What Ken Holland should do at the deadline
#1
Posted 10 February 2012 - 11:54 AM
Jiri Hudler
Tomas Tatar
Fabian Brunnstrom
2012 2nd
To DET:
Alexander Semin
2012 5th
To TOR:
Cory Emmerton
Joakim Andersson
Jakub Kindl
2012 3rd
To DET:
Nikolai Kulemin
Jesse Blacker
Projected Line-Up
Kulemin / Datsyuk / Semin
Filppula / Zetterberg / Franzen
Cleary / Helm / Bertuzzi
Miller / Abdelkader / ( Holmstrom / Mursak / Eaves / Conner )
Lidstrom / White
Kronwall / Stuart
Ericsson / ( Commodore / Kindl )
Howard
MacDonald
Conklin
That is a scary lineup that can definitely push for the Stanley Cup.
Wait until the offseason (depending on what Lidstrom decides to do) to go after a big name UFA defenseman.

Was too creative for him not to be, i hope this was a post more for laughs though.Were you high when you wrote this?
I hope to death we see neither semin or hemsky in a wings uniform, and that can go for kulemin too. Kenny thanks you for a laugh

If we beat the Ducks tonight, it will really hurt their playoff push and by the deadline if they are seemingly out of it, I think Kenny should take a run at Selanne. IMO Selanne is the best bet at a missing piece to help us win a cup this year. Like Nick, he is still the best player on his team this season (even at his age) and we all know how clutch Selanne is.
First off, the OP's suggested trades are beyond ridiculous. I might take Semin for Tatar and second-rounder, because he is right-handed shooter, but?
But as to Selanne, didn't Anaheim's GM say he was untouchable? But he is a righty, and this team desperately needs a right-handed shooter. I'm telling you. So I would not scoff at him.

Just outta curiosity, who wins these trades in your opinions? I hope you dont think were losing these trades...
And yeah, scrap Kindl in the final lineup.
So you're still high?

Haha so in other words you cant even tell me whats wrong with these trades Hahaha
I gave you a plus because I don't see a problem with posting trade proposals.
But I don't think Burke would want those players, and from what I've heard (just on other forums and stuff) Semin is headed back to Russia after this season. Plus, Hudler is only 1 point behind Semin, so I'm not sure adding Semin would be as big a boost as people think.

Selanne talks about filps success and the possible trade rumors. he dodges the trade question, which is not the answer youd expect from someone who isnt going anywhere.

I agree that Burke probably wouldnt go for the trade and McPhee probably wouldnt bite either but everyone here is acting like Holland would be an idiot for making these trades. I think we would be much improved if we could pull off these trades, which by the way I know would never happen, just having a bit of fun during these boring couple weeks leading up to the trade deadline.
Washington gets Hudler, a mediocre sniper that can help out the second line as well as PP, and two third line forwards that can add some needed depth as well as an upgrade in a draftpick. We get arguably the best sniper in the league that has done jack for his current team that desperately needs a change of scenery.
Toronto gets a potential second and a third line center as well as a potential 4th defenseman and a draft pick and we get another Filppula type player for a bunch of prospects and a pick.
I think offloading all these prospects to get two players of their calibre would be huge. Our prospect pool at the forward position is extremely deep and we dont have to touch Nyquist, Mursak, Pulkkinen, Jarnkrok, or Jurco...
Both Semin and Kulemin are having down years which brings there asking price down a little, but honestly all either of them needs is a change of scenery. I think they would both thrive here in Detroit and especially on a line with Datsyuk.

That would be amazing. Perhaps we could use a written agreement, stating that Datsyuk will not fight Perry anymore, as trade bait.

To Det- Purcell
purcell is a big body right hand shot can put up some points and has good speed maybe Holland can swing a deal with TB and Stevey saying it doesnt look like they are making the playoffs and need a possible shake up
