Thread: Possible Red Wings 2023 Trade Deadline Moves
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MorHitzSeider</b></div><div>Why are we sending a 2nd back to Toronto? That's not happening. We're taking 2 cap dumps and a guy who's made of glass? And we're retaining? There's no value here.

You're not a Red Wings fan.

Sunny gets a 3rd.

Retaining on Vrana to get Stepan? Yeah right.

Perron won't be traded until next year's trade deadline.

Ned for a 3rd???? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣</div></div>

You realize Bertuzzi is made of glass himself correct? He's a good player but can't stay healthy, two hand injuries this year, played only nine games back in the shortened covid season, and of course got injured again last season. If he stayed healthy that second would not be included in this trade and would be much better off if it was used to package with Chiarot to dump that terrible contract just somewhere. By next deadline if Detroit is smart, they could be in a position to fight for the playoffs but not the cup. They need a backup goalie to replace Husso, to callup Edvidson, and add another piece or two. By then Perron will be an expiring contract, and I would say most likely not be resigned is my guess, Soderblom deserves more playing time in the NHL as he could be a good career middle six player. Stephan would come back in the deal just for the roster spot to be freed up for Carolina, Detroit WILL be underwhelming I believe because of how we've treated such a talented player, but could be a little more than I said. Sunny will not be a 3rd, I'm sorry even if the Bruins are cup or bust this season, they could get a better player than him for the same price, even if the market has gone crazy, look at that Engvall return for example. Ned could go for a third or fourth, but whatever it is the smartest thing to do is gather assets that could be used for future trades when we're competing. Going for the playoffs thid year and trading for players that could get there would be incredibly stupid, you will be a first round exit to Boston or Carolina.
