DickieDunn 2,571 Report post Posted March 5, 2014 WAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! No TRADE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! LEGWAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The crying around here is out of hand. No other good centers were moved, as long as they didn't give up too much (conditional picks) this is a good move. 7 Nightfall, Jericho613, thegerkin and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dave 324 Report post Posted March 5, 2014 What about a defenceman? Babcock is gonig to have to run a defense by committee. Not a lot of scoring, just log down play it safe hockey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dat's sick 1,002 Report post Posted March 5, 2014 Gonna be another Weiss, just wait. Weiss isn't even playing which is why we need Legwand. I'm ASSUMING this means at least one of Helm or Datsyuk will be out a long time. Maybe both. It's a rental, he's a decent player. It's a good trade as long as we didn't have to give up a 1st or a decent prospect. We almost 100% needed to pick up help on center if we're gonna be without Datsyuk and Helm. And IF by some miracle we make the playoffs, Legwand could help us there too. 3 Wheelchairsuperhero, sjr2012 and red and white forever reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted March 5, 2014 We needed a healthy center badly, if it's a 2nd or 3rd, then how can anyone complain? We had Jokaim ******* Andersson centering our top line last game, this is good. 1 Dave reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
under_par_00 45 Report post Posted March 5, 2014 I will be happy if we give up a 3rd or worse. I don't think this trade involves any prospects. This is pure speculation on my part. Anything better than a 3rd, and it's a bad trade for us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VM1138 1,921 Report post Posted March 5, 2014 Why is everyone so down on Legwand? He's played every game this year, is leading Nashville's forwards in scoring, and instantly becomes one of our top scorers, too. Not a superstar goal scorer, but he will likely finish the year with 15 goals at least. And 30 assists so far isn't anything to shrug at on a team like ours that has trouble passing sometimes. EDIT: I was going off memory, so I'm wrong. He won't be one of our top scorers. He's played nearly twice as many games as anyone on our roster, but over a full season he'd probably fall in the middle of the pack. Not bad, still. Sort of like a Flip, 50-60 point guy. 1 gcom007 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shaman 713 Report post Posted March 5, 2014 What scares me is that this could be a sign that Weiss, Helm and/or Dats could be out for a long period. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShanahanMan 473 Report post Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) The guy has one assist and zero goals in last 7 games and is 33. If we are going for a rental, at least make it a good rental. Look at what Moulson went for, practically nothing. Only pros is that he is a Detroit native (not suburbs, ACTUAL Detroit) and a center. Oh, and he is pretty consistent in playoffs.

The crying around here is out of hand. No other good centers were moved, as long as they didn't give up too much (conditional picks) this is a good move. It's a good move, but we needed a Defenceman as much as a center. So only 50% happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
