Yup 8x6 is my guess as well, That's pretty much meeting in the middle. 8 hours ago, joesuffP said: Larkin + Raymond for Stutzle + Debrincat Larkin tells Ottawa to take a flying dump. They need to add Brady Tkachuk as well. 1 Jonas Mahonas reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeftWinger 5,131 Report post Posted July 9, 2023 (edited) We've all heard the talk, trade is basically done, Yzerman is now working on the extension. I saw somewhere that he isn't concerned about the contract value, he just doesn't want the term. I'm very curious to see what the trade is. I'd hate to lose Beggren. Can we get it done with Kubalik being the player going? Or Fabbri? Hopefully it's not Berggren AND Kubalik. I guess we'll only know if they can agree on the term. I wonder if Brattstrom is coming here too? Where would he fit in on the D if so? Edited July 9, 2023 by LeftWinger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cwilson 14 Report post Posted July 9, 2023 (edited) We just may blow this signing. I hope not. We all know DCat isn’t the missing piece, but he sure will help getting us there. Edited July 9, 2023 by cwilson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DCat is a good player, but not one that seriously changes our fortunes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Akakabuto 1,842 Report post Posted July 9, 2023 I don’t buy into this whole ”he only wants Detroit long term”-s***. Probably his prefered destination but he wants to get payed. Ottawa has reportedly had a deal in place with multiple teams. All depending on him signing a contract. My guess is Stevie holding firm on term and Debrincats agent is now working the other teams. 1 bIueadams reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

13dangledangle 968 Report post Posted July 10, 2023 Woooooooooo!! Definitely not as much as I thought we’d have to give. Love Kubalik but he was no doubt signing elsewhere for a higher salary next offseason also so I’m glad he could help us in this situation. getting DeBrincat is huge for us and Yzerplan, god speed 2 Dabura and Rick D reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeftWinger 5,131 Report post Posted July 10, 2023 Kubalik was gone TDL or UFA, Sebrango was not going to make it in Detroit because of Yzerman's D drafting. So a 1st and 4th. And that 1st (conditional) came from a player (Bertuzzi) who wasn't going to re-sign here either. 1 Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Akakabuto 1,842 Report post Posted July 10, 2023 (edited) Fair trade. I was hoping to not have to give up a 1st(even conditional) but happy we didn’t lose any good prospects.

Barrie 900 Report post Posted July 10, 2023 How did Yzerman pull off that trade, only having to give up Kubalik, Sebrango, and a couple picks? I thought maybe Raymond or Kasper would have to be included by now. That's why the Larkin contact is so important, only Mo can make more than Larkin. 1 Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dorion had no leverage; DeBrincat wanted to come here and the other teams on his list couldn't really make it work. 1 Barrie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bIueadams 776 Report post Posted July 10, 2023 So we just traded: Bertuzzi + Kubalik + Sebrango, for Debrincat Not great IMO. I'd rather have just extended Bertuzzi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
