The delay with Niskanen is his steep asking price . Pales in comparison to #lightning deal for Stralman. Some #NHL teams priced out.

Red Wings being told that Niskanen heading elsewhere.
Couldn't that just mean the wings are out on him, as has been mentioned already. Doesn't necessarily mean he's chosen a single team, just that he's narrowed it down.

Well, his name is Brooks, he's grossly overpaid, he's great at being gritty by pushing opposing players into his goalie after they score, and he can probably talk to the press about the team werkin' hard enough. At least we got another NBTW template player.

We're going to get Nisk for a $6M AAV.

Alzner - Carlson
Orpik - Niskanen
Orlov - Green

We'll trade Laich for a pick to sign Grabo at $4M AAV. Or we just go with MoJo/Kuz for 2C.

Basically a really solid, mobile D to go with our average offence.

Green might then get traded at the deadline for picks or a forward.

Re: Latta really hope its true it is one way. He should be playing on the 4th line barring some TC regression.

Those who are hoping for a trade are being overly optimistic IMO.

Hoping for a trade.

Trotz never really gave Latta a shot before. One way deal could just be leverage from an agent. Not like it seems hard to stick it to the grape ape ATM.

I want both Latta and Beagle on the 4th line. Beagle remains the only guy on this roster who can be counted on to win a faceoff.

I looked at it as a youth thing then. With the AHL developmental time, I'm sure he will fit right in now. Most likely was an agent leverage thing as you stated.
