Team: 2024-25 Detroit Red Wings

Initial Creation Date: May 3, 2024

Published: May 6, 2024

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Trade up at the draft to hopefully get a better player.

Move Maatta for roster spot.

Trade Fabbri for better defensive forward. Sturm is elite on face-offs as well.

Let Sprong, Gostisbehere, Kane walk.

Buyout Holl.

Re-sign Reimer for insurance in net. Re-sign Fischer and Perron for depth.

Sign Joshua and Roy to help with the defensive side of the game. Both bring a much needed element of physicality.

Berggren makes the team. Johansson makes the team and battles with Chiarot and Petry for a roster spot. Mazur makes the team, him, Veleno, Rasmussen, and Joshua battle for top 6 minutes.

See draft boards with Catton falling, if he does we take him. Otherwise MBN would be a great pick. Both stay in their leagues for this next season.

Kasper stays in GR to get minutes as 1C. Danielson joins him as 2C. ASP stays in Sweden this year. Cossa hopefully gets a few games as well.

Kasper and Danielson first call up for forwards if injuries happen. Wallinder first call up for defensemen.

This team won't score as much but should be much better defensively and harder to play against. Ideally we get good development from our top prospects. Likely finish worse than this season but given the draft next year, might not be such a bad thing.

Could see this team starting to really push for the playoffs come 25/26 season once more of the youth start making an impact.
