Proposal: Patrick+Cap Dump to Detroit.

[Captain Dave Poulin]

I can’t move Seider I’m sorry. I’d rather cut my hand off than trade Seider. I know that sounds insane but I love how he plays hockey

It doesn't sound insane at all. I'm the biggest Seider fanboy there is - I loved that pick from the moment it was made. Not surprised that the great man had the guts to make that pick. Steven Y. rules.

 

[LazyT]

You could have Provorov and Hagg for Seider, and then you wouldn't have to worry about it. I'm telling you, bud, I think we can make this work.

As insane as it sounds I wouldn’t do that. And I think Provocop is a really really good defenseman. I’m not even sure if Seider will ever be as good as Provo. But I still wouldn’t do it

I don't blame you. I am going to assume the Hayes plus a third for nothing is a done deal and go shoot off fireworks.

This thread needs more Ginning.

 

[Bigkarl]

I like Hagg, ideally looking for someone with a little bit more offensive upside. Looking for a potential Seider partner but I’m probably asking too much. But wouldn’t mind a Hagg+Hronek pairing. Hagg is reliable defensively somewhat, or am I off the mark on that?

Nope, nailed it.

What’s it going to cost to get Patrick+York to Detroit? Zadina+ pick 6 in this draft? Pretty please

I like Patrick, think last year was an anomaly, but think he needs a change of scenery, and York is a shoe in top 4 defender, but I would jump at this deal and hopefully be able to draft Brandt Clarke ( or Hughes, Guenther, Eklund, Beniers). I like both York and Patrick better than Zadina.

Think I'd do it also. I liked Zadina a lot in his draft year, but he has not been good. Possibly the Detroit stink? #6, even in a weak draft, is the best asset by far imo.

Zadina disappointing is definitely one of my more confusing evaluations in the last few years. I had him above Tkachuk even. Thought he was as safe as it gets. Somehow it’s only been 3 years.

He was never a great skater, but it was still fine. If you told me his all-around puck skills wouldn’t make him at least a 50-60 point guy in short order, I’d have been skeptical. He was always pretty physically engaged too. Even guys like Glass or Patrick disappointing make more sense to me. Maybe Zadina still has it in him, I don’t know. Weird one.

 

[Fight4yourRight]

Would Tyler Bertuzzi be available?

There’s been a lot of whispers about him being available. I think it would take a decent return for him tho. He’s got a unique skill set that the wings lack elsewhere. Curious what you would offer for him tho

Yea I haven’t been a huge Zadina fan myself. I will say tho, he is progressing game by game and it’s noticeable. A big thing is lack of good players around him. I think once we have Berggren and Raymond on the team Zadina’s play will pick up. But I’m all for moving him for the right offer.

 

[bennysflyers16]

Honestly I almost included Ghost in the thread title. Someone like him would be awesome to add to our team next season. Would be one of my ideal partners for Seider to be honest.

Did the Wings not have cap space to claim him ?

 

[Ghosts Beer]

I thought Zadina was overrated in the draft; the consensus seemed to rank him 3rd & he was getting a ton of hype. Wicked shot, good hands, & strong, but his style & effort level made me question how he’d translate to the NHL.

I had Boqvist 3rd & Q. Hughes 4.

Zadina still has time to salvage a career, but if I were a Detroit fan I’d be extremely disappointed thus far, & not particularly hopeful.

His name is Moritz. Love is over

What are Detroit’s specific needs this off-season? Would love to have him in the Orange and Black.

We had space, was a bit of a head scratcher as to why we didn’t honestly

Kind of how I feel honestly, he shows flashes but on most nights he’s invisible. Didn’t like the pick at the time and still don’t now.

Youngish 2/3 right handed Center and a young top4 potential left handed Dman with a little bit of offensive upside

I forgot about a D prospect of ours that could be a good target for Detroit

I’d be really interested in someone like that. Ideally it would be someone who could kind of grow into a roll playing with Seider. Andrea I’ve liked what I’ve seen in my limited viewings

I thought this was a non-euphemism board.

Man I would think this is an actual deal. I’d take that package for sure.

Can I also say y’all are great. Your board is actually awesome. You guys have a good group here.
