Just like we don't anything before it happens period. They are at least expected as much.You don’t know that period

It’s not really a problem the leafs said they wouldn’t trade nylander but everyone knows they will it is what it is , they’ll deal zaitsev somehow and marleau’s 6 will come off the books , caps going upThe bigger problem with Toronto is that they've not got any flexibility to improve the team. They are a flawed roster and they do not have any cap room to add. To add the top flight D they desperately need, they'd have to deal Marner or Nylander. To improve the team, they would have to re-shuffle the deck a little bit.
Tampa is another team that will likely have to do something to fundamentally reshape their cap to continue adding. They know what they are doing... but at some point if you don't win, guys are going to stop taking slightly less money.
Ottawa has a couple good pieces. Chabot is fantastic and Tkachuk looks good. If you're counting Brannstrom as a stud D, why him and not Hronek? What has Brannstrom done at the NHL level?
Devils are garbage right now with Hall and Hischier. That's why they were in a position to take Hughes. And in a year, Hall will get a double digit millions contract, Hischier will be much higher off his ELC and if Hughes is anything like you're pushing him as to where NJ will blow everyone's doors off, he'll be making 12M+ in three years.
All of the things that are bugaboos for Detroit (contracts signed for too much and too long, guys getting hurt or underperforming, etc.) are things that will hit other rosters.
And in the case of Ottawa... there is no reason to believe that Melnyk changes his spots. They were a bubble team with Karlsson and Stone and Duchene and other good players like Hoffman... and Chabot for a year too. They're going to self-destruct themselves before they're good.
Pics or it didn't happen.Look into more than one article and youll see it. He literally wore a LeAF JERSEY TO THE WINTER CLASSIC

Yes, it is expected that Veleno will have speed and Zadina will be just as good a goal scorer as Mantha.“Expected” is completely different and trading Ras seems like a panic move
This proves my point Trouba is sneaky and will finesse himself to the Red Wings then in July 2020 we will have the presserYep.
And the reason for Trouba having an apartment at Florida is just smart tax planning.
If you are US citizen (like Jacob Trouba is), working temporarily at Canada (like Trouba is), and if you own an apartment at United States (like Trouba has) and are living at Canada at a rental apartment (like Trouba is, this rental apartment is the key for whole loophole), this kind of case in taxes will be treated with the US state laws. And Florida taxes are lot less than in Manitoba.
This is just a loophole what Trouba is using. His net earnings are higher because he technically lives at Florida. He plays at Canada with Florida tax rate.
I did read this case from Winnipeg side few months ago, when somebody seemed to know the facts.

It's a moot point anyways since they don't want either Ras nor Mantha.And Rasmussen screens the goaltender, when Zadina snipes that Veleno pass to top corner.
We need them all, it already is were effective trio of different kind of forward types together.
It's a moot point anyways since they don't want either Ras or Mantha.
You're probably right though if you move Ny you have his cap space. I just thought if you haven't been to the SCF in 40+ years, you might take a 1 year flyer on the best D available, no matter the costthey can't fit Trouba next season i dont think.... his 1 year offer is what 6M? They got to sign Marner too. they have roughly 6M (assuming 83M cap). I don't think they'd trade Nylander for a rental.
If trouba actually wants to play here, why wouldn't he
A, just sign here next summer , or
B, orchestrate a trade only to Detroit
He cant both be a lifelong red wing fan with an intense desire to play here but also willing to sign with just about anyone who offers a contract first.
No trade pls unless it's for scraps

I've heard this song and dance way too many times for far too long.Exactly , makes more sense to trade AA for bean or some young dman, pick and get trouba in for free than also trade cholowski plus pick for a guy who will likely come regardless
Two years can look like
Trouba hronek
cholowski bean/soderstrom(oilers 8th pick)
dekeyser mcisaac
Lindstrom etc...
Hopefully we can trade dekeyser in 2-3 years , saarjarvi becomes a piece we use in a trade package or for a pick
How will his cap hit be Lower as an rfa? This makes absolute zero sense, if he believes he’s an 8 million dollar guy he won’t sign with us Or anyone at 6 cause he’s an rfaOne thing for Trouba to get him now, is to push his caphit a bit down because of the last RFA year.
If you sign him for free as UFA, his caphit will be higher. Losing an asset NOW = buying his caphit lower.
But so far, there's no guarantee, he would only sign to Detroit as UFA.
Pay for it, make it 100% sure and worry about other things later.
***
He is exactly the piece we are missing for. Plugs a big hole, maybe creates another hole, which we can plug with other players.
Like Athanasiou+Cholowski <> Trouba
We can sign Skinner/Duchene/Nyquist/Gardiner to replace those assets for free (cap space currently not in use), when we pay something for Trouba.
GREAT YZERMAN summer SPLASH:
signs Skinner for 8M x 7 years
signs Gardiner for 7M x 7 years
Trades Athanasiou + Cholowski for Trouba. Trouba extends for 8 years.
Skinner > Athanasiou
Gardiner > Cholowski
Trouba > anybody on our defence.
Win-win-win on every spot.

And all of a sudden our 4th line is 12 million and skinner gets a concussion and we’re stuck paying him foreverPART 2.
Outcome:
Skinner - Larkin - Bertuzzi
Hirose - Veleno/Nielsen - Mantha
Rasmussen/Svechnikov - 2019 1st pick/Veleno - Zadina/Svechnikov
Abdelkader - Nielsen - Glendening
(Ehn, De La Rose)
Helm traded.
Daley bought out.
Gardiner - Trouba
DeKeyser - Green
Ericsson - Hronek
(McIsaac) - Bowey
This is nothing but same GM book from Ken Holland at 2001.
LW Kozlov + 1st <> Hasek.
Replaced Kozlov with Robitalle from UFA.
Final outcome. Robitaille + Hasek <> 1st
Your'e missing a huge part in that back then players actually wanted to play here. If players want to win, they won't be signing here any time soon.PART 2.

I'm not sure if you're trolling or not, but its not that simple. If it were, Suter, Stamkos ect... would be here.That's bull****. Why did players sign to NY Islanders and what is happening for them?
This is new NHL and team powers change faster than ever. No contenders is contender for more than 1-2 years. Then salary cap will eat them We are contenders faster than expected, if you BUILD FOR THAT.
Stop living in the past. See the future. Build the future.
Sign Skinner, sign Gardiner, trade for Trouba. Be YZERMAN. Make things happen. That's 20 million for PURE quality we are currently missing. That makes big difference on the standings.
So god damn simple to understand. Kids are developing. You round them out with prime players, draft talent high and there's a contender in 1-2 years.
