Superman54 91 Report post Posted February 27, 2012 Rather weird after we just lost a d-man, and injuries never will disappear especially come playoff time. Reasons for everything though, and Holland probably has a good one. Smith maybe? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Hatethedrake! Report post Posted February 27, 2012 Kenny must be freeing up the roster spot so he can bring in Nash for the 7th round pick. Seriously though, I have a feeling that Pahlsson is coming here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trading Commie for a bag of pucks better not be the only Wings move today. 1 Dominator2005 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Superman54 91 Report post Posted February 27, 2012 Reading the article from Ansar Khan, sounds like Kenny did it more as a favour to Commie then anything. Still seems a bit risky depth chart wise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That sure is a lot of conditions for a 7th round pick. Especially considering the Lighting are 6 pts out of the last playoff spot. So we pretty much were just clearing the contract and a roster spot. I really hope this means we're bringing in another forward. Maybe Nash will be playing in Columbus tomorrow wearing RED. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dimaline312000 51 Report post Posted February 27, 2012 So let me understand this, Commie has to play at least 15 regular season games and the Bolts have to make the playoffs this season for the Wings to get a pick in the 13 Draft???? So if only Commies plays his amount of games but the Bolts don't make the playoffs we get nothing???? If that's the case than WTF. I understand wanting to clear some space but shouldn't we at least get some type of garuntee for Commodore?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's some horrible spelling. In their attempts to be the first one to report it, there's no time to read their tweets over before posting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EastonWings 2 Report post Posted February 27, 2012 Holland said commy wasn't gonna play. They plan on bringing up smith for some games here. He said b smith and kindl will alter and play. Sounds like he did commodore a favor and a salary dump. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Red Crazy 201 Report post Posted February 28, 2012 Great for Commie but trading away some defensive depth for nothing in return seems a bit odd. Kindl and Ericsson have both been shakey. If Smith isn't ready then all of a sudden we are thin going into playoffs and all for a 7th rounder? AND coming on a day when both Lids and Quincey are listed as day to day?

Hockey Convert 55 Report post Posted February 28, 2012 Great for Commie but trading away some defensive depth for nothing in return seems a bit odd. And guess what?
