Not a knee jerk thread but if the Wings continue to play like they have been. What would Kronwall bring at the deadline? He has been good at putting up some points but he has been really good at costing the Wings goals. The first 2 tonight are all on him and his buddy E

What defense are you talking about? I don't see much to brag about. I am talking about trading a player that might have very good value which we don't have a lot of.

he's our best defensemen , cup winner... played with lidstrom for many years and no doubt learned from him and you wanna get rid of him ? makes zero sense

Yes and maybe he looked a lot better while playing with Nick and with Stuart. It depends a lot on what can be got for him. I am not suggesting trading him for nothing. If it is a good time to rebuild then players of value that can help the future by being traded need to be shopped. Not sure we are there yet but its not looking good.

hes been putting up points and hes our top defensemen. i dont think so

I see a lot to brag about. They proved that they can survive without lidstrom. They are still one of the better defensive teams in the league. Mistakes are bound to happen when the defense is so young, but they have otherwise been extremely impressive.
I think your proposition is the definition of a "knee jerk reaction"

[GMRwings1983]

He's the one player we can't trade, because our defense already sucks, and he's not retiring next year.

[dats13owns]

Since he just scored does that mean he should get a 10 year extension?

[13dangledangle]

I'd be down with trading him IF it was in a pkg deal with another to be unnamed forward (or three) for a top D.

[Franzine]

Trade the entire team for Hudler.

 

[Hockeytown0001]

No. 

[St. Michael (the Red Wing)]

Trade Kronners then trade everyone is my theory.

 

JK of course.

[Jersey Wing]

Yeah let's not trade a guy in the running for a Norris trophy. If you traded him then you'd just have to trade for a guy to replace him.

seems to be the pattern.

Considering you posted this after the Oilers went up 2-0, it is a knee jerk thread.

There is no better defenseman than Kronwall available in trade, so I dont see how trading him could possibly improve the team.

Why I suggested Kronwall was IF the Wings looked like they would not make the playoffs come deadline day and a big return could be had for him. Maybe in a package with Mule?  It's funny how some on here are screaming about a rebuild or a big trade but never want to give anything up in return.

Kronwall helped poop the bed on 2 goals last night, but if you all notice, his only 2 mistakes ended up in our net.  He also assisted on Petry's goal, which was a beauty by the way  and has been great lately adding his name to the list in Norris talks believe it or not.  With the roll over of our D since Rafalski retired, and then losing Lids and Stuart this year, does anyone think his life is easy?  Give him the rest of the season to sort his s*** out.  I for one think he's earned it.
