#2240695 Holland saving $ to make a push for Weber?

Posted by ZoFace on 02 January 2012 - 11:25 AM

I don't see the Wings making a trade for Weber because Detroit does not have the assets to make a deal.  The only decent trade chip the Wings have is Brendan Smith.  Jurco, Tatar, Nyquist and Pulkkinen are considered B grade prospects at best.  Weber is a perennial Norris candidate, it's gonna take the entire farm for any team to get this deal done.  I just don't see Holland trading away all these assets when the Wings have an aging team.  Don't get me wrong, I'd love to have Weber in a Wings uniform, but Suter is a more viable option being that he's a UFA.  But what happens then if Lidstrom decides to come back for 2012-2013?  I'd see the Wings making a big push for Suter if they feel Stuart is going to leave.  That's the only possible way, in my opinion.
