Any rumblings on Nyquist? And where can we buy pitchforks if a trade isn't made?

No. Expect a new contract shortly.

There's this, but it's not the most rock solid source:

 

[SCD]

'Twas the night before Christmas.........

 

[Filppula]

Hopefully half this uninspiring roster is gone.

 

[Hen Kolland]

There's this, but it's not the most rock solid source:

Would love to be in this man’s head for a week leading up to tomorrow at 3pm.

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

'Twas the night before Christmas.........

Holland has his phone on airplane mode connected to wifi watching the 2002 SCF game 5 on YouTube

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

Don't count on it.

 

[SCD]

It has been a long season, think positive. KH has had a couple of good TDLs, let's keep the streak going.

 

[TheMule93]

There's this, but it's not the most rock solid source:

did any of his tweets from last years deadline pan out? I remember him telling players to pack their shit before

I'm going into the pitchfork business right now. Watch for the link to my new website soon, where you can also stock up on torches and straw effigies of Kenneth.

 

[DetroitRed]

I was looking for them to trade Nyq to San Jose mid-game and have him do the 3rd period as a Shark.

 

[Zetterberg4Captain]

I am predicting two trades

1 free agent and 1 less than expected roster player

Hopefully nyquist and daley

I agree wholeheartedly... 2 Trades tomorrow, Nyquist and another player (not named Howard, who expect due to the Market, will be kept)

 

[saska sault]

My expectations... One or two trades. Jensen was a nice move. I expect Nyquist to go, and one of Howard, Daley, Kronwall to be moved.

Maybe Holland surprises us all and deals a younger player with team control?

I hope we get prospects and pics.. but prospects or young players ready to play like Bowey. Gives us the rest of the year to watch, hope for development and see if there is a future for that player.

Let's go Kenny!!! Everyone should be a Holland fan for the next 24 hours and hope for the best.

No, that house seems to be lacking a sturdy foundation in reality sometimes.

 

[DetroitRed]

I've been predicting Nyquist and Jensen would be traded, but I also thought a team that's basically set and likes it's chances, like Tampa Bay, might just want to pick up Witkowski to watch over their assets.

It seems to me you could have a lot of toughness on reserve just by adding Witkowski on your team, and not have to give up much for him in terms of a future draft pick. Defensively a liability of course, but he also scored one of my favorite goals last season.

Alas, no Witkowski trade buzz.

I would just keep Witkowski. I don’t have any need for a conditional 7th.

You think 7th? I was thinking Kenny could finesse a 5th out of him. Maybe 2020 4th.

 

[obey86]

Yeah, could probably get like a 5th. That's that the Wings got for Scott Wilson and Steve Ott got a 6th.

 

[DetroitRed]

Yeah, could probably get like a 5th. That's that the Wings got for Scott Wilson and Steve Ott got a 6th.

At a 5th, that's an extra goalie pick maybe. I'd do it. At 6th, I'm not so sure. But he's probably in that range.

Wasn't the operative point of signing Vanek to flip him at the deadline? I'm not sure there is a market for him. I don't think he blocked anyone's path here, so it was ultimately hopeless, but would like to get something for him.

Truly conflicted on Nyquist. If we re-sign him, I don't know if it's the worst thing. I think he's a positive influence on Larkin, and I think he could really compliment and aid in Zadina's development, however, signing him to the five year deal he will want is definitely a terrible idea. I think ultimately, we have to bite the bullet and move him for the best return possible.

We absolutely should be focusing on collecting picks and prospects now.

Problem is Holland rather overpay and handcuff himself then possibly letting one of his prized draft picks sign with someone else. Unless you're Fedorov of course.
