Thread: DRW 24-25 - Possible plan
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PuzzledActuary</b></div><div>Wait for the two good prospects we have to develop and dont give up potentially valuable assets for a stop gap, pretty simple.

Ullmark doesn't make this team any better than it is. Their issues are in front of the net, not in it.</div></div>
Edvinsson, Al Johansson, Wallinder, Buium, Tuomisto, Sandin-Pellikka, Gibson, An Johansson, these are all pretty decent to really good d prospects that Detroit has - assets that can be used to improve the team, you can afford to sell on one. If you extend Ullmark to hold down the fort until/if Cossa or Augustine turn out good, I don't see how that's a stopgap, or is every signing a stopgap?

This team currently has a backup that got burned out towards the end of the season in Lyon and Husso that is a question mark if he's ever getting back to form again after getting rough injuries for a goalie. "Issues not in net", huh?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Celtics21</b></div><div>I was pointing to your statement saying there was no reason to include a prospect like Wallinder and the trade was fine as is. If your offer centers around a 2nd round pick. It’s probably getting beaten. My guess is Sweeney’s preference is to send him to the west if all things are equal.</div></div>
This was kind of my thinking too - lots of teams with goalie needs and Detroit kinda has a surplus of good d prospects, they're not all going to fit. Might be time to use one to fill another hole in the lineup to take the next step?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PuzzledActuary</b></div><div>There is no reason to include Wallinder, from DET perspective.

If Ullmark was 25, maybe.</div></div>
Ok then do Buium, doesn't really matter, point still stands. Gotta give something to get something. What's your solution in net for Detroit that doesn't give up assets?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dugg133</b></div><div>I think it'd have to be Wallinder instead of Tuomisto, but besides that I think it's fair value.</div></div>
I think giving up Wallinder would be fine considering the depth of d prospects Detroit has, but would probably impact the picks? They would have to be convinced Ullmark is a starter and gets an extension though.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PuzzledActuary</b></div><div>That's correct, and doesn't make much sense for DET unless Yzerman is planning to extend Ullmark and get a nice return for Cossa/Augustine.</div></div>
I definitely think having a reliable goalie that either Cossa or Augustine have to beat out to get the job both makes sense but also is in line with how the organisation has worked historically.

Thread: 16-17 Wings with a trade for D
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>digitalbath</b></div><div><i>trouba wants 6+, dekeyser wants 5, mrazek wants 5,

so between all 3, cap room is impossible, i think the trade is realistic tho</i></div></div>
Hm that might be true but looking at the comparable contracts, Trouba probably isn't getting 6+
This year:
Seth Jones signed for 5.4 over 6
Morgan Rielly signed for 5 over 6
Olli Määttä signed for 4.083 over 6
Sami Vatanen signed for 4.875 over 4

Dekeyser might get closer to 5 but I highly doubt he's going to push for too much.

Mrazek will probably get more but I really don't think he's getting 5 unless he's getting signed long term:
Jake Allen signed for 4.35 over 4
Frederik Andersen signed for 5 over 5
Andrei Vasilevskiy signed for 3.5 over 3

Overall I think I might be 1-2million off but that should still be fine. But I'm not sure about the trade anymore though since Pulkkinen is out untill fall :/
