Post-Game Talk: Wings play better but do not get result

[Ulysses31]

Jurco 7mins, AA 7 mins, Pulkinnen 8 mins.

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

Tatar has the most trade value. One more year at 2.5 million and still an RFA afterwords. Of course Tatar won't be traded, but just food for though.

I think if the Ducks do look to move Vatanen for scoring help up front we have to offer Tatar. They might find something they like better but that is a trade we should offer up and it might get it done.

 

[theYman]

Well, trade Pulk and Tatar close your eyes and see what we can get. Eric Staal?

 

[SpookyTsuki]

Tatar and a pick for Sami Vatanen please.

Buzz buzz. Incorrect

The correct answer is both

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

nyquist is at least acceptable defensively. tatar has nothing right now

Agree that Nyquist is playing decent defensively, But bottom line we're paying both Tatar and Nyquist to put the puck in the net. And they're not doing it.

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

Well trade Pulk and Tatar close your eyes and see what we can get. Eric Staal?

We don't have the cap space even at the deadline for a guy with Staal's hit to make that happen. More Salary has to go.

 

[Chris 84]

yup, tatar and nyquist suck right now, but.....

nyquist's determination on the forecheck is what created the first goal for us, so really not the worst game in his streak of nonsense. can't say the same for tatar, sadly.

 

[TheOtherOne]

So what's with Larkin? Sick or something? Does that explain why he had so little ice time last game?

 

[SpookyTsuki]

Well trade Pulk and Tatar close your eyes and see what we can get. Eric Staal?

Lol he's gonna get flak here as well cause he's just as good

It would have to be a rental since there is no way the Wings can afford to re-sign him.

No No Tatar for Vatanen

And Nyquist in a package deal for Trouba.

 

[theYman]

God this team sucks in SO always blame the Goalie but when you can't score it doesn't matter no excuse to loss this game.

Nope can't blame the goalie when you don't score. lol Mrazek stopped Ryan, their best scorer. He did his job there.

 

[TheWestWing]

The sick ref lost it for us.

Sup wit dat? Turned on PHI TOR and only 1 ref there also.

 

[theYman]

Yeah this isn't NHL 16 blah blah yadda yadda. The cap is suppose to drop 4 mill next year too.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Yeah exactly, Pretty sure that even if the Canes retained 50% of Staals contract still not sure if we could afford that caphit without sending another higher salary the other way it would more or less have to be Nyquist not Tatar.

Tatar was down there forcing that as well. But he had a really poor game.

true, he was

Very true, For some reason we don't have the snipers for SOs. We need to add a SO specialist this summer.

 

[SpookyTsuki]

No No Tatar for Vatanen

That's still trading both. Which is what we should do 100%. I doubt nyquist and Tatar score 20 this year with how they keep playing

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Nyquist has been looking some better here lately, Mostly defensively But Tatar not so much.

Brad boyes instead of richards

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Nope not looking like it, Both have been major disappointments so far. Looking like the only one that might hit 20 is Larkin.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Brad boyes instead of richards

Yeah Brad Boyes was the one that i was thinking about, Heard that Holland had interest in him awhile back but never pursued him i think Florida chose to resign him instead. He's someone that we definitely could use.

soft, one-dimensional forwards= no chance to win in a mens league

So we have a bunch of Robert Langs out there.
