Proposal: DET-NYR

[bfaust30]

Hayes for AA +

It seems like Hayes will be gone before the end of the season, however trading him now could get best value. Red Wings get a center to secure that 2nd line role once HZ is done and Rangers get a speedy winger/center who can be moved around.

I mean it seems reasonable to do but idk I would rather do Hayes for Nyquist.

 

[Henkka]

I think Detroit should try AA at center before doing any trade.

 

[bfaust30]

Gustav is older, Rangers need to get younger. They take potential over a 20 goal scorer.

 

[Tatar Shots]

Detroit can’t afford the difference in cap. Trade doesn’t make sense for the Wings.

 

[DRW204]

Detroit is in the infancy of their rebuild. Don't think it makes sense to trade the younger, cost-controlled RFA player for the older, more expensive and soon to be UFA player.

 

[drw02]

Doesn't really do much for the Wings being they're rebuilding, Hayes is older, less skilled and arguably has less upside atp, personally don't see his game aging very well. If Wings do trade AA, it's not gonna be for someone who's older

Detroit will definitely add a 6' 6" 220 pound center this year. Thing is, we don't have to give up assets to do it...

 

[FoxysExpensiveNYDigs]

That better be a fairly large + on the Wings side.

 

[rhef3]

Wings need to get younger not older, you could have AA for some good prospect(s) or decent pick

not really, its one year of hayes

not really, its one year of hayes

He's worth at least a 1st. I value AA as a 2nd.

 

[DictatorTots427]

AA, Helm and a 2nd? Moving Helm makes up the difference in Hayes' and AA's contracts.

nope, not enuf

Nah. Value of AA + 2nd gets wiped out by having to take Helm for the next 3 years. Also doubt Helm waives to go to the rebuilding Rangers.

 

[Ishad]

Trade makes no sense. Rangers can get better for Hayes at the tdl. Redwings have no interest in adding salary and a pending ufa.

 

[Sparksrus3]

He's worth at least a 1st. .

Because he is better than Skinner ?

 

[FissionFire]

I don’t see how this trade makes any sense for Detroit. Sure, Hayes is a good player but getting an older guy about to hit the UFA market while adding a plus on top just isn’t a smart move for a team still on the way down waiting to hit rock bottom.

 

[FoxysExpensiveNYDigs]

Because he is better than Skinner ?

Because he's a big 2 way 50 point center who excelled in a shutdown role last year on an awful team.

 

[jw2]

Wings don’t need a guy on a 1-year contract

Rangers don’t need a third line wing

 

[cwede]

Halverson and Kampfer for Ryan OReilly, Jack Adams

 

[WingsMJN2965]

Because he's a big 2 way 50 point center who excelled in a shutdown role last year on an awful team.

Detroit would be farther ahead just keeping their assets and trying out Rasmussen.

 

[Syckle78]

Why did you think it was a good idea for us to be spending assets to gamble on a 2nd line center at this point?

 

[Lays]

Hayes to Detroit doesn’t really make sense. There’s nothing on the Wings that (realistically) excites me anyway. I’d want a 1st+ for Hayes but the Wings 1st will be too valuable to move for Hayes. I’d love a deal around Berggren but again, no reason for the Wings to do it
