While in Detroit these are Ken Holland's (cap era) Trade Deadline deals:
In all the years Holland was GM of the Wings he rarely dealt away top prospects or 1st round picks. He mostly moved mid to late round picks for depth guys. He was more aggressive in free agency in the off season which we've seen here in Edmonton.
