Getting back a first is a trade. Getting back late 2nd rounders is a dump. Nyquist should have got us a first. 1 Jersey Wing reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think that’s what killed us is the rangers deal , least they got a conditional first at this point I’d rather have traded a 3rd and Gus for a 1st , quality not quantity Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
e_prime 1,936 Report post Posted February 25, 2019 You can't trade Nyquist for a first to a team that doesn't have their first. The Sharks do not have first rounder that isn't already wrapped up in conditions for the next few years. Doubt you can trade a pick that you may not have. If there's no real talk about Nyquist being traded and we can get a second rounder plus conditional pick for a guy who had to waive his no trade -- I think Holland did just fine. Maybe the Sharks were the only team biting. 2 1 Dabura, Hockeymom1960 and krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Our GM decided he didn't want to give a 29-year-old winger a new $5M x 5 contract and so he traded him for market value and opened up a roster spot and some cap space (assuming Nyquist is in fact gone for good). Also, this helps the tank. I'm not seeing the problem here. "Should've gotten a 1st" isn't really an argument. 4 1 Hockeymom1960, Rick D, e_prime and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kipwinger 8,754 Report post Posted February 25, 2019 This is such an odd deal. I'd almost rather the Stanley Cup finals condition not be met by SJ because it would turn the second rounder this year into almost a 3rd rounder. If they lose early we don't get the 2nd next year, but the one this year will be higher. So really we should all hope SJ loses early in the playoffs, but then Nyquist decides to sign with them in the offseason anyway lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brett 1,029 Report post Posted February 25, 2019 (edited) Seriously you have a guy who can actually score and help the team and trade him for a 2nd rounder who’s likely never going to be playing in Detroit. s*** we have a 6th overall pick in zadina and he’s not even close to nhl ready and was struggling in the ahl. You have to at least get a 1st rounder. I’d be ok with a 2nd if you got rid of abs or Nielsen with him. Those are the guys ******* you money wise with the amount of production they make. You just got a 2nd for ******* Jensen nyquist is 10x better really dude Edited February 25, 2019 by brett Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeftWinger 5,129 Report post Posted February 25, 2019 Here's my quick conspiracy take on this trade: Detroit has every intention of giving Nyquist his money come July. His mission in SJ, which by waiving his NTC, he chose to accept, is to bring Karlsson back with him. His reward will be the 5 yr $5.5M contract. That's it. Lol, the guy on trade centre just said Detroit is listening to offers on vet D, Stefan Kronwall.... 5 The 91 of Ryans, Akakabuto, Rick D and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The 91 of Ryans 3,019 Report post Posted February 25, 2019 I guess I'm just a spiteful, petty, ******* but I would probably rather loose Nyquist for nothing on July 1st then give him away to San Jose to help their cause. But Ken Holland is a good GM and probably got what he could in a buyers market that's been flooded by a bunch of pretty good forwards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You have to at least get a 1st rounder. It's been more-or-less established as fact that the return Holland got for Nyquist is market value for a player like Nyquist. Again, Zuccarello got roughly the same return. Now Dreger's saying the Devils want a 2nd for Johansson: Word on the street is that Nyquist wants $5-5.5M x 5, which, to me, is all kinds of "NOPE!" And it seems like Holland agrees. So 1) Nyquist had to be moved, and 2) Holland got market value for him. In Nyquist's absence, a roster spot opens up and all the young kids who are already full-timers might get slightly expanded roles. (I say "might" because it's possible we add someone through free agency or a trade or even the upcoming draft.) 2 krsmith17 and Learn2LuvIt reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

13dangledangle 968 Report post Posted February 25, 2019 It is what it is. Holland was in a lose/lose situation with Gus, he isn't worth what WE all believe and if he let him walk July 1st everyone would be pissed he wasn't traded at the deadline. Either way, the Goose is loose. I wish him all the best, he gave us some good hockey moments 2 Hockeymom1960 and Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(I say "might" because it's possible we add someone through free agency or a trade or even the upcoming draft.) I agree. I've been hearing the same thing...Nyquist's future here in Detroit was all but sealed and he wasn't going to be here next year as his asking price tag $ was prohibitive to keeping him. I like that Kenny is actually starting to make "rebuild" moves rather than trying to keep "above average/good" players and overpaying, giving NTC, and signing them for way too long of contracts. On top of gaining the ability to attain more players with the hopes of finding a few "diamonds", draft picks, even if they are 2nd rounders or even later rounds picks can be very useful in throwing in deal packages to get future deals done. Lastly, it's refreshing to see us cut a kid who grew up on our system loose instead of playing the loyalty card which has burned us many, many times in the past. 3 krsmith17, Dabura and Hockeymom1960 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Does lower mean closer to 3rd round or closer to 1st. When I hear x was traded for a "low" 2nd rounder I think closer to 3rd round.
