Ken Holland is a magician.

 

[Fugu]

Holy moly.

 

[SoupNazi]

This is an honestly great trade for the Wings.

 

[chances14]

gear up ladies and gents. gonna be a long week of #stamkoswatch

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

I was mad, but the value there is astounding. Coyotes got destroyed.

 

[hyduK]

Wonderful trade.

I take back everything I said.

Hopefully we can still get a good guy at 20.

 

[sully6one]

Holland just made the best move of his career!

 

[Chance on Chance]

as long as we use the cap space well im happy. If we sign Helm and Quincey with it who cares

 

[WingedWheel1987]

Are you ******* kidding me?

 

[HockeyinHD]

Are you ******* kidding me?

I know, right? It's almost like everything you thought about the guy was wrong or something.

Maybe Hakan made the trade for him, eh?

 

[Shoalzie]

Nice...better snag Stammer now.

 

[Bob Probert Owns You]

Yeah, I'm happy.

 

[HockeyinHD]

Holland just made the best move of his career!

I think the Chelios trade was his best move.

 

[RedMachine87]

Wow, love it. Good job Kenny, I won't say anything bad about your mother for 24hrs now ;-)

 

[Lil Sebastian Cossa]

I am floored at that deal.

Like seriously. They can get the guy that they actually probably wanted at 20, clear 7.5M off the books, and get a 2nd. That is a ****ton to give up for Arizona to move up 4 spots.

 

[NervousPerson]

I was not happy when he traded down. I'll eat my crow. So pumped right now.

 

[ap3x]

Good job, Kenny.

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

Great piece of business there by Holland.

Arizona got the guy they wanted. That was important to them. If the kid is a star, we're all going to be super sad.

If he's not and the Wings don't blow the cap space, everything comes up Milhouse. We won't truly know how to feel until Stamkos makes his decision.

 

[ricky0034]

nice deal

hopefully Holland doesn't do something stupid like sign Staal if Stamkos signs elsewhere though

 

[SirKillalot]

Boom!

Awesome for Detroit.

Good for Arizona, possibly paid a bit too much with the 2nd but if they got their guy, it's great.

Vitale is a salary dump and Chychrun was probably ranked in their top 10, so they're probably happy as larks

 

[PelagicJoe]

**** yeah, Kenny. Way to redeem yourself.

 

[Classicnamesup]

Was so mad when I heard traded the 16th for Dats but damn, good return. Barely moved back, got another pick and a scrub. Bravo Ken
