Confirmed with Link: Legwand to Wings for Eaves, Jarnkrok and a cond. 3rd (2nd if we make the playoffs)

[Jurco]

Waiting to hear what went the other way is excruciating

 

[Xvash2]

Michigan boy coming home, hopefully Babcock can use Legwand effectively.

 

[Big Poppa Puck]

Assuming we gave up a package similar to Hemsky or Gaborik or a lesser prospect, I don't mind this deal give our Top 4 Centers are all out.

 

[we like our team*]

cool. i doubt we gave up much

 

[Detroit Sports*]

pick cleary and tootoo lol

 

[jroc86]

Vanek for 2nd rounder + prospect ... **** me.

 

[ArGarBarGar]

Wanted a D.

Oh well. Hopefully his face looks less punchable in a Wings jersey.

 

[Detroit Sports*]

Waiting to hear what went the other way is excruciating

i hope it is not your screen name!!!!!!!!

 

[jroc86]

Happy with Legwand deal. He always plays us hard. Big guy who can still skate. Probably resign him easily for a few years too.

 

[Jurco]

i hope it is not your screen name!!!!!!!!

Don't even joke about that

 

[SirloinUB]

i hope it is not your screen name!!!!!!!!

I would be quite upset. I don't see him going the other way though

 

[Cursed Lemon]

I swear to god, if Holland traded Helm...

 

[WingedWheel1987]

Better be for scraps.

 

[chances14]

I predict a 2nd or 3rd and tootoo

 

[Detroit Sports*]

Nobody named tomas!!!!!!

 

[Petes2424]

Interesting trade for the Wings. People think it makes sense and hopefully he takes it seriously. One of the best things for him over the years was to NOT be in Detroit for 9-10 months.

 

[ricky0034]

Nobody named tomas!!!!!!

how about Thomas?



edit: actually not sure if the Wings could even trade him anyways with the deal he's on lol

 

[mindfly]

No way Legwand gets a 2nd or better...

 

[bababooeyII]

Nice pickup, better be for nothing. If Vanek can be had for a 2nd and prospect, Legwand should be had for even less

 

[ArGarBarGar]

This deal would probably look a lot better if a division rival didn't just snatch up Vanek for peanuts.

 

[Xvash2]

Nice pickup, better be for nothing. If Vanek can be had for a 2nd and prospect, Legwand should be had for even less

the difference is there was a glut of 2nd line scoring wingers, not so much down the middle and other teams are aware that Detroit has no centers.

 

[chances14]

You guys seriously think holland would trade jurco or Tatar for legwand. I know we all like to bag on him but that's just ridiculous lol

 

[ArGarBarGar]

Wow 97.1 talks about the Legwand trade, and then the update desk says a few minutes later "The Red Wings make no moves at the deadline."

Wooley you are a hack.

 

[PullHard]

Babcock and Legwand bromance will be a strong one

 

[Kanenenights]

Nashville writer said he has heard Eaves and Jarnkrok
