Official 2016 Detroit Red Wings Offseason Thread

I think if we are getting Nielsen, we have to get Okposo too. Just Nielsen by itself leaves us a worse team than we were last year and we BARELY made the playoffs. If it is just Nielsen, I'd rather stand pat and do a mini rebuild.

I would rather have Backes

Here comes another Weiss contract signing in Nielsen ... Swear to god if Kenny gives a 31 year old a 6-7 year deal at 5.5-6 per

Hedman "could" be a ufa next year , no point using up all our cap space now just cause we got some

Frans Nielsen 15-16 Highlights

FILAPOOLA

I predict that Nielsen = 2018/2019 buyout

In fairness, we suck at that. And the shootout. And scoring in general. Beggars, choosers...

Russia sports writer: "Radulov still hasn't signed with a KHL team. Only CSKA can afford him, but he isn't crazy about returning there. NHL still a possibility."

no no no and no let him walk damn it kenny this is not change!!!

I don't get KH obsession with our own avereged FA. Let theme go, Helm is not needed we should play AA on 3rd line (at least). KH said that he's looking for scoring, grit and size... Helm used to hit people 5 years ago. He doesn't bring anything what we are missing.

agree Ham hands will do nothing!!! AA is a better version of helm

So help me if he gives Helm anywhere around 4 mil per season...

[TankIt 9]

Hopefully KH lives by his own words of wisdom today, "less is more"...

Holland is like the girlfriend that is in a bad relationship that doesn't know when to move on. The relationship is familiar so she just stays put.

He just doesn't get it. There are 273728 Helms in that system. AA had 10 goals in limited minutes last year and now you take away ice time that's should be his. Holland needs to go

There were some rumblings Andrew Ladd was supposed to visit DET this morning. That did not occur, so all signs point to NYI.

Radulov's #KHL rep confirms that he's indeed talking to Wings. Has a backup plan in Russia if things go down the rail.

I really hope that this is not a repeat of the Wings getting snubbed all July 1st.
