Interesting. I would think that Vegas and Colorado would be heavy favorites over either Florida or Detroit, but it'll be fun to see how it plays out.

I for one would welcome Krug. We need long term depth at LHD and need someone to provide offense from the blueline even strength and on the PP. If we get him, I think Nemeth (with retention) would be on the move for a 2nd+4th type of rental to a team looking to shore up its bottom pair for a title push.

Hope Colorado gets him. He'd be a great fit for them.

Wings need to horde all their draft picks.

Would be even sweeter of COL paid for his rights, and later have to watch us sign him for free

 

[Kronwalled55]

I say go for it. I’ve always liked him as a player. We don’t have much to lose.

My only concern is how he would adjust to playing on a bad team.

 

[Barry Amsterdam]

On one hand Krug Seider would be sick to watch. On the other, how does he mesh with our team and rebuild

Colorado already has Makar and Girard on the small offensive-D front. Doesn't make much sense.

I think Florida will be aggressive after moving Matheson. A Krug-Ekblad Yandle-Weegar top 4 would be legit.

Vegas is already heavy on the left side with Theodore, Schmidt, Martinez, Holden, McNabb. I think Martinez at least plays on the right

Colorado has Girard and Graves on the left with Byram on the way. They could also use help on the right.

If we were to sign Krug, we'd have him, DeKeyser, Nemeth, and Staal as a scratch, with Cholowski playing in GR. The right would be Hronek, Seider?, Biega, Lindstrom. It's starting to fill up, but I don't think signing Krug would push someone out who 100% deserves to get minutes.

 

[Ricelund]

I don’t like the idea of signing Krug but I’m on board if Yzerman is.

 

[SimonEdvinssonAtSix]

Thinking on this and I can see the need for a Krug. I'm not the biggest fan of his but we need Vet D that can actually play the game of Hockey.

Daleys and Staals that are past their prime an be good mentors but that is their only value.

I'll judge this later based on price paid, both for his rights and term/$$$

 

[JediOrderPizza]

I'm 50/50 on it, I think either way i'd be on board. I really don't want the wings to be that f***ing bad again, the lotto odds are not worth it.

Vegas ja Theodore and Schmidt to play the PP, Colorado has Makar and Girard, Florida has Yandle and Ekblad.

Yep, the other teams are just to drum up interest. Stevie is probably lowballing at like a 6th or 7th and they want a 5th.

anybody think that if this happens it could be an indication yzermans going to draft drysdale and want krug as his mentor ?

I don't think so, Drysdale is still a few seasons away from being NHL ready, and Krug may very well be on the decline when he makes it up permanently.

At this point, any move made prior to the draft is one that Stevie would make regardless of who he drafts, given that we don't even know who will be available when we pick. Obviously something like extending Mantha and Bert would still happen, but you can't plan on drafting the next Yzerman at 4th OA and then making your moves accordingly.

No, and I think Drysdale will be a much more well rounded player.

God let the blues sign pietrangelo and force vegas to chase krug

no thank you

 

[Go Wings]

Hope Colorado gets him. He'd be a great fit for them.

Colorado needs another offensive dman?

 

[Zetterberg4Captain]

I appreciate the effort the insider added by providing a very firm deadline of Sept 28th, 2020.

All insider info and rumours should come with such caveats
