I have no idea what it would take for Trouba. But I'm prepared for pain, as in it might involve Mantha or AA, on top of Nyquist or Tatar. Add some fries with that in the form of a second rounder.

I would rather give Mantha than AA. That speed of Athanasiou is just nasty, he'll shape up fine in the coming seasons.

Man, it'd be tough to sacrifice Mantha that way, is trouba really supposed to be that good?

I know they'd want a young prospect, but I'd almost rather offer both nyquist and tatar...what about nyquist and Sheahan. I know I'm probably over valuing Mantha, but it'd be tough to let him go. But I most definitely agree, if it came down to it, I'd let Mantha go before AA.

As long as the coke rumors are overblown, yes

It's amazing that he's supposed to be so good, yet he still remains unsigned or untraded.

Not really... lots of excellent RFAs are still unsigned.

Gaudreau, Monahan, B. Schenn, Barrie, Nichushkin, Ristolainen, Ceci, Dumba, Lindholm, Strome, Kucherov...

In fact... it's completely normal.

Pretty sure Schenn, Barrie and Dumba are signed. Not sure about the others though...

Edit: Barrie isn't yet.

Schenn is signed. That's my bad.

Dumba's signing was literally just announced now.

Regardless, my point still stands. It's not unusual or out of the ordinary for high profile RFAs to take a while to sign.

Lmao we should make a video of compilation of pics of the Red Wings Swedish mafia over the years with this music playing in the background. Then send it to the DRG wacko that released the article.

Original Don Lidstrom (aka Vito) through the years and passing it onto Don Zetterberg (aka Michael). Makes sense, Vito was a way better Don than Michael was.

The OG Don was Salming. He got "traded" to Detroit to lay the ground work and open the way for the rest...

he looks more like a Bond Villain...
