I've never seen a goalie duck to avoid saving a puck like Reimer did on that Timmy Stutzle OT winner in Sweden. LOL</div></div>
Reimer is a bum. I get why Steve signed him. You need 3 NHL goalies on the roster and options we're thin. he was the best of the worst available. But I'll be glad he's gone this summer.

Wings need a legit goalie
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lancebmx</b></div><div>I actually don't think Walman is part of the future, was weird as it sounds. He is 28 now, 30 when he needs a new deal. I think he eventually gets moved. Edvinsson I think is destined for that top pairing spot with Seider. Wallinder could very well be a second pairing option in two years. I would personally rather keep our younger options.
You get guys like Petry, Sprong, Gostisbehere off the team and replace them with more defense competent players, this team will be substantially better and give up less chances.
Personally I'm not pro on giving up the future for a small bit of success now.
Although I think Markstrom would be better than what we have now, I don't think it's significant enough unless we upgrade other areas.</div></div>
That does sound a bit weird to say Walman isn't part of the future. He is 28. It's not as if when he turns 30 he'll forget how to play hockey. I honestly see him staying in Detroit until he's 33-35. Another 5-7 years. He and Seider just fit so well together and the guy just brings a ton of energy to the team. Loved by teammates. But I wouldn't be opposed to trading him if they could do so for a legit top 6 forward of similar age. Edvinsson will likely be the LD to Sandin Pellikka and be a formidable tandem. Think of a Lidstrom Rafalski style pairing. Obviously Edvinsson is not Lidstrom, but you can get what I mean. Johansson or Wallinder will be great bottom pair LD guys in the future. But I like Johansson just a bit more at this point. There's also still Shai Buium playing very well in NCAA on the radar.
There's more benefit to Markstrom than just the improved goaltending he'll provide in the next couple years. He'd be an excellent mentor to Cossa when he arrives in the NHL. So in a way acquiring Markstrom would be an investment in the future of goaltending in my opinion.
Holl will be bought out this summer if he can't be traded or claimed off waivers. Ghost just won't be re-signed. Great on the PP but just sucks in his own end. Give his PP time to Walman, Edvinsson. Sandin Pellikka will QB the PP in the long term future. Petry, as much as it sucks, likely will stay and be the 7th D guy next season and will remain on the team for one more year then is gone as a FA. Sprong is a love hate relationship for me. Has games where he's buzzing but then games where you wonder if even touched the puck. But not a bad guy at his cap hit. Perron will likely be gone and his cap hit hopefully used to re-sign Kane for 1-2 years. His offense has been a welcome addition. Even at 35 and post hip surgery, he's still elite.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lancebmx</b></div><div>I wouldn't do it. Rather just run it back with Husso and upgrade the team defense first. Maybe sign another cheap option as a third option like we did this year.</div></div>
Both Wallinder and Johansson are very good D prospects but realistically both don't have a future in Detroit. There will only be a spot on the LD side for one of them behind Walman and Edvinsson. So giving one up to improve the team in other areas isn't the worst idea. Fabbri can be replaced with Berggren next season. Crossing fingers and hoping Husso can do what he's proven he's unable to do isn't a good strategy for making the playoffs. A move like this, saying we're intent on making the playoffs next year, might entice Kane to stay which is needed. It's not a given he'll stay.
Lyon down the stretch just seems to give up at least one backbreaker each game. He's just tired. Every goalie, even the greats like Vasilevskiy gives up a stinker every now and then. But one every game when the playoffs are on the line just crushes your team. We need a better solution than do nothing and hope Husso bounces back.

Awful trade for Detroit. Sprong is arguably our best bottom six guy and on a cheap contract. He'll be resigned, albeit for a raise, but a well deserved one

cant see giving Kane 2 years unless it's a VERY good cap hit. even 4 mil is risky to tie up in a guy coming off major surgery. id give him 1 year and see how his hip goes.

Saying Rasmussen is a just a depth player proves you do not watch the red wings. he was injured around the 60 game mark and in the last 20 games his absence was really felt on the ice. Detroit was in a playoff spot and after he went down the wheels started to come off. It really showed his value on the team as they went from playoffs to finishing 15 points out.
Saying Rasmussen is just a depth player is like saying Anthony Cirelli is just a depth play on Tampa. They are very tough to play against 3rd line centers or 2nd line wingers. Last Season Stats.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lacoon</b></div><div>This is assuming they extend them</div></div>
not sure id want to extend them, definitely not both. they'll want 7-8 years. Yzerman would probably only offer 4, maybe 5. more likely they walk.
Lindholm is almost 30 as well. do we want to spend that kind of cash on a guy who will be 35 with an expensive contract not producing the same as he did when he was 26? not really. Hanifin is also a LD. Detroit is so overloaded with LD on the roster and in the prospect system. Edvinsson, Wallinder, Buium, and Johansson are all very solid LD prospects.
Lindholm would be good for the right price and term. Does he want out of Calgary or something? Why couldn't Calgary just re-sign him to 5 years, 8 million?

Hard pass from Red Wings. Too much draft capital to give up for two players on expiring contracts that are going to be looking for big raises next summer and could both potentially walk after one season.
We also really really like Ras and what he brings to the team.

Goodrow, more specifically his contract, doesn't ' align with Detroit's plans.
Jones would just take a roster spot and playing minutes in Grand Rapids away from one of Detroit's young defensemen. Edvinsson, Wallinder, Johansson, McIssac. These 4 guys will have the left D side taken care of in GR.

I’m also happy Detroits average size for Defenders is 6’3” and 220lbs. They may sometimes get out skated or make a bad turnover but at the very least we won’t watch them be pushed around and out muscled in their own zone.

I do remember, a few weeks before hand, I was a big advocate for a Pellikka draft and use Petry as a bridge guy.</div></div>
If we didn't have Holl signed I would love this move. Petry at 2.3m is actually a steal for what he brings. he was just wayyyy overpaid in Pittsburgh at 6.25m. But with both Holl and Petry we now have two older RD's locked in for the next 2 years, which i'm not overly thrilled about.

He's got a lot of Vets / experience on the blueline now, which I don't mind at all after the past 7 years of watching Detroit's D get regularly blown apart. More experience on the blueline is never a bad thing. Petry, Chiarot, Holl, Maatta, Ghost, these guys will all shuffle around the bottom 4 with Walman and Seider locking down the top pairing. It almost guarantees Edvinsson will start the season in Grand Rapids, also don't totally mind. Injuries are going to happen. Theres no way Petry, Chiarot, Holl, Maatta and Ghost are all gonna play 82 games at their age. Edvinsson, Johansson, Wallinder, Tuomisto will all benefit from a full year getting a lot of minutes in GR,

Not trading a 1st for Trouba. not that Trouba doesn't deserve that, he's just not the player we need that would warrant giving up such a valuable asset to a rebuilding team. Trouba wouldn't be our 1RD, he be a 2nd pair RD for Detroit behind Mo. A 1C (with term) is the only position I'd consider trading a 1st for.
