I think I mentioned earlier I'd like Yzerman to be both a seller AND a buyer this deadline... I'd like him to buy a couple higher end players... if that's possible. you say you want the wings to compete and then you want them to trade chairot and kane, two of their best players.

We've seen a few guys come through here recently that give us a good 1/2 season or so and then turned back into to pumpkins. 🎃 Edited January 27 by gehringer_2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never said that or anything like that. You are purposely misconstruing what I am saying. To what end: be clever? Did you think you were being clever here?

Did you think you were being clever here? im exaggerating your point, but its still your point. you overvalue what the red wings have to trade. you want to give up nothing of value for something very valuable.

You're still misstating. I've already said if it takes a 1st and a 2nd, then do it. And as you've pointed out, it might take Kasper/ Cossa/ etc. to swing the deal. I've agreed. "Nothing of value" is not correct. In fact it's complete BS because I've already stated otherwise. Which is why I don't appreciate you misrepresenting what I have said. Trying to get away with as little value given as possible? Of course that's my position. That's what ANYONE's position would be, including NHL GM's. But when it comes down to getting the deal done, you have to give talent to get talent. I've never said anything otherwise. But yes, I'd love to minimize the cost, and throw in excess prospects (to me, like Wallinder, Johansson, 1 of Cossa/ Augustine I'm good with and have already said so, etc...) if it minimizes trade cost. And I'd love to also trade guys who become excess if a trade is made for a high-end talent. For picks or whatever coming back. NONE of what I've said deserves "worse than a sports talk radio caller". IMO. We're done. I'm not arguing this anymore. Your caricatures were rude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shinzaki Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Wings are having their best season in years and their kinda under the radar thanks to the Lions. They have some assets to deal...but I'm not sure I want to part with the price it would take for guys like Lindholm or Hanifan when Compher and Maata are playing well in the slots they would take Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt. And it's too bad because I think he could be more of an offensive force if allowed, but right now the Wings don't need that from him. Yzerman is being more patient that I could be in his shoes. I want to see if Edvinsson can cut it now and if not get a deal made to bring in another top half Dman. Other than the goal tending that's what can cement their playoff chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But nice try... the canucks just traded their first round pick, their fourth round pick, their #3 prospect (a puck moving offensive defenseman), a fringe prospect, and an underachieving forward for lindholm. so that means the wings #1 pick, their #4 pick, axel sandin pelikka, joe veleno, and robbi fabbri for lindholm. do you make that deal?
