[MarkusKetterer]

As a Ducks fan, this sucks. Had a feeling he could get claimed as he’s absolutely a bottom pairing defenseman

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

Djoos was pretty good for Anaheim.... kinda sucks we waived him, thought he had a future on our blue line

 

[NewtJorden]

Didnt his father played for the Wings in the 80's?

 

[WhatTheDuck]

He belongs in the NHL, just got caught up in the numbers game in both Washington and Anaheim. Pretty good skater and puck mover, can play both special teams

 

[Dr Quincy]

Just like that... instant 1st pairing D.

 

[Willy Stylez]

I like the claim by Red wings, going to be interesting to see how he will perform.

Late 80s and early 90s. Also played for the Rangers.

Good pickup for a the Wings. He’s obviously not a bruiser or an offensive wizard, but wing fans will appreciate his intelligence and refinement. He can move the puck efficiently and can contribute both ways.

 

[bsu]

He's solid.

 

[Hatter of the Beach]

Seems like a shrewd no risk, potentially mid reward pick up.

man I love Stevie as our GM. Always actively trying to make our situation better, even in minor deals.

 

[AveryStar4Eva]

Good spot for him to land and re-establish himself. Also, Detroit gets a puck mover which they really needed another on the back end

 

[HanSolo]

Marcus Pettersson for Daniel Sprong.
Daniel Sprong for Christian Djoos.
Christian Djoos for *checks notes* nothing.

Bob Murray is a magician. He can make solid assets disappear before your very eyes!

That's all we're seeking is a good puck mover, And that kid is definitely one.

 

[TheReelChuckFletcher]

Detroit's left side is now Nemeth, DeKeyser, Marc Staal, Merrill, and Djoos. Djacked.

He is?

According to Natural Stat Trick, he's had a grand total of 2 total "rush attempts" the last 2 years (granted he only played 11 games last year). His giveaways seem to be a lot for a guy with limited minutes and who isn't the primary puck carrier on his tandem.

I mean, he's fine for a waiver pick up and better than playing Marc Staal, but other than that he's basically at best a 7th dman on any kind of team.

Just need one more to hit our organizational quota of 15 Swedes.​

After Marc Staal's comment, I wouldn't be surprised if he isn't on the taxi squad.
