We need to make a trade. Or two.

Thoughts. Ideas. Angles. Go.

I agree we do need a trade we need at least one D-man and 2 wouldn't hurt and it would also help to get a scoring forward

[dirtydangles]

I'm gonna suggest this again. I know people won't like it because they want immediate help, but they also don't want to give up Fil in a trade (which won't happen when trading for a top dman).

I think we should try inquiring about David Rundblad. He is young and inexperienced but would be a great partner for Smith for years to come. He would cost less the Yandle for sure.

Thoughts?

im thinking jay bouwmeester could be a good deal for us he wont cost us as much to get as it would for yandle and yes i know hes got a high salary but at least its for only 2 years

the good about doing this trade would be his short term contract , the fact that he can play 25 minutes a night, his size 6'4 214, 28 yrs old and i think he can get back to 40+ pts here with our system and being surrounded by better players , he's always been on god awful teams his career , florida and calgary .... i really think if he would come here he would be so excited and feel rejuvenated and he would surprise

I think we should just sign Semin and try and trade for a defenseman. These Dmen are taking owners to the woodshed. I wouldn't even be opposed to going the guys we have. It's obvious our D is not going to be that good but we can at least have some sort of strength on this team. Any trade should in my opinion involve White/Kindl, Abdelkader, and Franzen. In order to get a good defenseman.

I would love to get either Enstrom or Yandle. The real question is what is it going to take to get one of or someone like these guys.

I think Holland is probably close to ditching plan B and on his way to plan C. I just don't lose guys like Nyquist and Smith.

MLive reports Doans agent has contacted the Wings a few times already.

He might have size but he doesn't use it.

lidstrom didnt hit either , i he might do good here might be worth it at this point


considering how stupid jay feaster has been what do you think we can give up to calgary for bouwmeester?? i think they might wanna get rid of him and his high salary

kindl,emmerton and landon ferraro??? he's been so dumb you think he'd take it?

that being said im sure theyd notice emmerton got 6 goals on detroit in the 4th line iand think he can get over 10 on calgary which im sure he might

anyways not saying that offer could be done for bouwmeester but considering how dumb feaster has been ....

[Spongewingredpants]

The good news is if we really suck next year, we can get a great 1st round pick......oh wait, we are probably going to give that away for a kyle quincy type player

[13dangledangle]

Datsyuk is screamin' for some Semin!! No seriously...

I don't watch Calgary much, nor am I a fan of Bouwmeester...That said I kinda see him as a Stewie type of player...Had a few good seasons in FLA; gets moved to Calgary with the hopes that he'll be a top 2 Dman with great 2-way play.

Now just like Stewie - he's not lived up to expectations, and many fans in Calgary aren't happy...To me - I see a big guy who skates well, can handle the puck/makes smart passes, has just enough of a physical edge, but has primarily become more defensive minded these past few years.

Yes I want him on this team!

[YougotDatsyuked]

heard a rumor that Evander Kane from Winnipeg might be available via trade,

Don't tease me

[Crymson]

That would be a tall order for any GM to accomplish without giving away quite a bit in the process. Suggestions, please.

that being said im sure theyd notice emmerton got 6 goals on detroit in the 4th line iand think he can get over 10 on calgary which im sure he might

I'm pretty sure that if we're all aware of how useless Emmerton is, the GMs know it too.

It may be a tall order but even if we resign Q we still are one defense man short so we have to add one we have to many forwards so we have to dump a few of them

FIREPOWAH!

Gimmus sum Nash.

I wont miss Mr. Stop Inside the Blue Line and Cough up the Puck. or Mr. I don't know if I wanna show up tonight. Only thing off limits should be Smith. Couple of 1st's wont really hurt anyway. If we're gonna worry about 1st round picks then we may as well tank it for 5 years and hope some young studs can be drafted while suck. Drafting 25-30th is like kissing your sister.

[LeftWinger]

before anyone jumps on me about Tatar, remember there is still Jurco, Jarnkrok, Pulkkinen, Nyquist and Sheahan...not to mention soon, Frk, Atahanasiou, and Bodin (who I think will surprise everyone!) We have an expendable prospect or two up front...utilizing Andersson, Mursak and Tatar in a trade won't be the end of the world...

Getting impatient for Kenny to do something. Very impatient...

[Shaman464]

My latest idea: Package Franzen+Sheahan+Tomas Tatar+2nd for Nash... Send Nash to Anaheim for Bobby Ryan+Etem+Welinski+1st.... Send Etem+Trvdon/Jurco+Detroit1st for Jbo or Yandle

Agree with this post. Smith and Nyquist are important guys we need to become players for NEXT year. Unless it's a guy like Nash, Ryan, or that caliber, no thanks, we'll keep them

A trade would be good I hear a lot of talk/rumors about the Wings inquiriing about Rick Nash and that would be a good shake-up for the team however our D is what we need to address the most. We have a good Offensive Corps we just need them to get back to the way they were in 08. If we can't, than obviously we should trade someone and get some new blood on the team and add that Hunger that every team needs to make a deep run in the playoffs. I don't want to make any trade proposals and say who I'd trade for what but if we can do something that is reasonable that can help our team I'd be all for it so if we need to make a trade let's do it otherwise let's sign who we need to sign and see what happens.
