That's what was being reported, But on Friedmans last tweet he said that Washington and Colorado were no longer options for Radulov take it what you will but it sounds like he's no longer interested in Colorado.
Rumor: Elliotte Friedman says Radulov is interested in NHL (COL, DET, WASH & FL favored)

We can't afford Rad and Stammer without moving cap. The easiest cap to move is Nike. If we move Nike, we can use him to upgrade the D, but this in turn requires moving out more cap. And the other candidates are more expensive. (Edit - Actually, if the cap goes up to 74, moving one of Howie and Ericsson isn't necessary).
I forget where, but some Peg fans seemed to be ok with a Nyquist-Smith-2nd deal for Trouba (mind you, he doesn't have a deal and he's asking for a lot). If the cap really goes up to $74M, then we can make it work.
Trades:
Pronger for Datsyuk (+ pick?)
Nyquist-Smith-2nd for Trouba's rights.

Franzen
Pronger
Re-signings (estimates)
Mrazek - 2.8
Dekeyser - 4.5
Sheahan - 1.8
Marchenko - 1
Miller (pity contract) - 700k
Sproul - 650k
Pulkkinen - 750k
(I think Holland tends to do a really good job with RFA re-signings)
FA Signings
Radulov - 5x2
Stamkos - 10x7
Trouba - 5.5x3
Total = About $72 mil
Radulov - Stamkos - Tatar
Zetterberg/Larkin - Abby
AA - Sheahan - Mantha
Miller - Glen - Jurco
Pulkkinen
Dekeyser - Green
Kronwall - Trouba
Ericsson - Marchenko
XO - Sproul
Mrazek
Howie

We'll take the chance like the Pens took the chance on Phil Kessel. If the deal is right then why not?
I understand the issues with him, but I don't think we should pass on him if he wants to play here, he would lead our team in scoring and actually give us a legit 1st line player that we desperately need.

Definitely wouldn't be opposed to the idea. This is the type of move that would make rebuilding on the fly a whole lot easier.

Yeah me too. I'm also not actually a big fan of Trouba but whatever. Just an example.

I like our team?
All I can say is thank you; for a few moments, you made me forget where I was as a fan of this organization. If we could get that much and move so little away, I would do cartwheels nonstop for a week.
Don't see why he would want to play in Detroit now that countryman Pavel Datsyuk is most likely no longer with the team next season. As mentioned previously, I think it's his agent trying to create competition for whichever teams actually are interested in acquiring him. I wouldn't be opposed to him being a wing though. We could really use a goal scorer who isn't tiny and fragile along the boards.

You're gonna have to change that 2nd for Trouba to a first and most likely add. Also I don't think radulov does anything less than 6 per
My biggest problem with you post is that your have to remember Holland is in charge. Not a chance this happens. A wonderful team, just won't happen.

THE ATHLETIC IS GARBAGE
People seriously want this ******? I would revolt!
USA should revoke his passport and expedite him out of the country. **** him!
Surely he didnt mean to do that. Maybe he was frustrated at teh play and just wanted to bang his stick? Far out.

Mazur detractors will look like dummies!
People really wanna pass up on a guy who would instantly become the teams best player? Sometimes you just gotta deal with the baggage some players carry and live it, I think this is one of those times. Especially if he wants to play for the team and if Detroit is trying to compete next year. If it’s a rebuilding year, then i could see passing on him.

I really hope Kenny lands this guy. Then it'll be clear this organization has lost whatever dignity and self-respect it might've had in earlier times

If he does maybe that convinces Pavs to stay another year and play out his contract. We can only hope any ways.
I'm unable to understand why anyone would want him on this team. The guy is a headcase of the highest order. He would definitely help the Wings tank though, so there's that.
