I heard there’s coverage on the tdl? When is that cause I’ve got nothing to do today

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

Well, I hope it is a good day, fascinated to catch up when I get done with work.

As usual Ken Holland will disappoint us, Probably just see Mike Green moved. That's it.

Wouldn’t be surprised. We’ve won these past few without him.

If we deal Green and bring up Hronek,, He actually might do better he's looking pretty solid in Grand Rapids right now.

Holland will sit on his thumbs and then say the return wasn't there, don't worry the better deals will be before the draft... or next training camp.... or the end of preseaon... or next trade deadline.... . or whatever the "next" trade period is. Same bullshit he's been saying for 6 years now with nothing significant to show for it.

What’s the best radio station here in the U.S. (Michigan) to listen to trade deadline coverage? I’m at work all day.

With Green being hurt lately... I wouldn't be too upset if we got a couple of 2nd round picks.

I think the 1st round pick is done

You are probably right. Can't wait for his post-deadline bs interview,

"we're only 5 points out here, I didn't want to move any of our players who can help us with a playoff push here. Sure I kicked tires here and there, but at the end of the day we're 5 points out. All you have to do is get a ticket to the playoffs, then anything can happen. Let's play hard here and punch our ticket"

AM/FM? Or can you listen to internet radio?

Thanks for the update. Great to hear that he'd waive for more than one team.

From the player's perspective, I can understand why you'd limit your options, especially if you have a young family. But from the team's point of view, that would stink if, for example, Vegas was willing to offer the most for Green, but they were "never in the race" because a guy with an NTC didn't want to go there.

Normally I wouldn't include any rumors in this thread, but there is a portion that's a Green update from Khan:

NHL Trade Deadline Rumor Roundup – February 26, 2018 | Spectors Hockey

MLIVE.COM: Ansar Khan reports the Red Wings seek “a first-round pick or at least some combination involving multiple high picks and a prospect.” They’ve had extensive talks with the Lightning and Green is willing to waive his no-movement clause if a deal can be worked out with Tampa Bay. Toronto and Florida are also linked to Green, while Khan observes the Capitals lack the cap space to bring Green back to Washington. The Wings would also like to move Tomas Tatar or Gustav Nyquist. The Predators are among several clubs with interest in Tatar.



Good to know they're still pushing for the best deal possible. Hopefully something materializes this afternoon.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

No faith in Holland what so ever, Mike Green to Tampa for their 2018 2nd+2019 3rd it'll probably be like the Smith trade.

 

[saska sault]

Ill be happy as long as Green is moved. I dont like the fact we moved 5 points back of a WC spot. That alone makes me scared Holland will want to keep "the culture" intact and push for a spot....

 

[datsyukfan]

Cole to Columbus for a 3rd and a prospect.

I think if Cole gets that wings should get a 1st for green

 

[dragonballgtz]

Won't lie, I'm extremely nervous nothing will get done. With Green being hurt and Tatar and Nyquist having term on their contracts.

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

I just want Green traded. I don't even care a ton about the return.

Let's make this the most "liked" post on the DRW board.

 

[DetroitRed]

For a guy with a no-trade clause, like Green, who you would probably lose at the end of the season anyway, I wouldn't be surprised to not get offered full value or even close to it. Especially if Green only agreed to possible trades to two teams and one of the two can't afford him. Holland might be having delusions of grandeur.

 

[DetroitRed]

Let's make this the most "liked" post on the DRW board.

The only problem is that the addition of Ken Holland only makes the proposal worse for Tampa Bay.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Won't lie, I'm extremely nervous nothing will get done. With Green being hurt and Tatar and Nyquist having term on their contracts.

But supposedly teams that are looking at Nyquist/Tatar want players with term like Nashville and St Louis. So that shouldn't be an issue.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

I just want Green traded. I don't even care a ton about the return.

Same here, Even if we get the Smith return 2018 2nd+2019 3rd it's better then nothing i guess.
