<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Garak</b></div><div>lol. Right... An injury prone overpaid player in decline... Nah. I'll stick with "might accept". If you actually dig into CHI's roster, current situation, and what they have stated they are trying to do going into next season, there isn't a lot of space for streaky injury prone cap dumps. Sorry, my guy.</div></div>

On a lot of CHI (majority) trades, I tend to agree with the local fan base. Here however is a wildly misconstrued view.

At 1 x 4, Fabs will be giving more production than UFAs who sign at that AAV. He also doesn’t carry extra term, lowering risk. Added to the term, it also makes it easier to move him with retention.

I completely get the injury concern, very warranted. In saying that, last year he did slightly overcome that. He was consistently out there at big moments on PPs, and taking key draws (very solid FO%). Worst case scenario he goes on LTIR and the 4M means nothing. Best case scenario is he gets near or hits 20 goals, provides Chicago a bit more offense, and returns around what you received to get him in the first place.

Detroit wouldn’t be looking to dump him, especially when there are several other more pressing concerns.

I wonder how much interaction Stevie has with Fetisov, Larionov, Federov and Datsyuk. I'd expect those guys have a better gauge of whether Buch is NHL ready.</div></div>

He just signed a deal meaning he is 2-3 years from coming to the US. Best case is he becomes the Wings version of Kaprisov

Thread: IN THE YEAR 2000

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LikeABoss</b></div><div>Buchelnikov is an interesting winger. Ras and Compher will be here for another 4 seasons, and Copp for another 3. I could see Copp, at age 33, sticking around in a bottom 6 role for a Michigander discount. Either way I'd expect all 3 will be in Detroit for a few more seasons.

I think that'll give some time for this year's prospects. I'd agree with focusing on forwards this draft</div></div>

I completely forgot about Buch lol. I think after hearing some of the smoke around him I have since cooled (apparently he may want to just stay in Russia after his newly signed 2 year KHL deal). I have several ACGMs where I think he has the most offensive talent of any Detroit prospects.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LikeABoss</b></div><div>If they want to fill that role from within, I could see them snagging a RD with 15 OA. There's a few decent righties that could be in the show by 26' - '27. I'd expect them to go with the best player available, and it never hurts to have too many good RD.</div></div>

Biggest need in my opinion is BPA wherever they draft (15 or try and move up), with a focus on wing.

Center: Larkin-Danielson-Kasper-Veleno-Lombardi
LHD: Edvinsson-Wallinder-Walman-Johansson-Buium
RHD: Seider-ASP-Gibson-Ant-Tuomisto
Wing: Berggren-Mazur-Soda-???

Not a bad place to be considering wingers can be found easier than most of the other positions (I.e Debrincat trade, Kane FA)

Sounds like he’d be perfect for TOR as a low cost, defensively solid, point producer who can help their depth and keep them in the playoffs…

Gibson, Ant, Tuomisto. 1-3 needs to be good enough for a 3rd line role, seems achievable.

If that’s what it took for Perfetti, Detroit saves time, cap, and Tuomisto by calling WPG instead of helping TOR.

Most likely no. Trading Seider means trying to find another Seider.

Edit* I didn’t see you said Marner for Seider. No, because the added value would be too much of a mess.
