Wings trade Nyquist to SJ for 2019 2nd & 2020 Conditional 3rd

[Ishad]

Not thrilled with the return, but moving him was the right call. Now let’s ship Glendening to TO and call it a day.

 

[PullHard]

Hopefully he fills Karlsson's ear with praise about his time here

 

[Leronziia]

Par deal given the market. Still some more contracts to shed. The Abdelkader one hurts bad.

 

[Tetsuo]

Dzingel is younger and is cost controlled so hence the better outright deal. Zucc is marginally better/more proven so it makes sense that he would get the higher upside conditions. At least the conditional 2nd here is somewhat likely. We can probably treat this as Nyquist for 2 2nds, which is pretty fair. Looks like there simply aren't enough available 1st rounders for rentals this year.

I hope it is just a rental.

How did Jensen get more back than Nyquist? Wilson took Holland behind the shed.........

Except Jensen didn’t get more

Hopefully Karlsson fills his ear with praise about his time there and we can get the other 2nd.

 

[DetroitRed]

He can stay in San Jose or he can return. The only thing I don't want is for him to return and have Holland do his contract.

 

[Cyborg Yzerberg]

This'll definitely help the tank, I'll say that much.

Oh it’s Florida’s 2nd round pick this year. That’s not bad. 3 of the top 45 picks isn’t bad. We also get the Islanders 2nd round pick too. So, 4 picks in the top 60 and likely 5 of the first 65 picks.

Hopefully, Howard gets moved as well.

 

[DetroitRed]

All youngsters on the top line now I would guess. Should be good for their development if Blashill can resist shifting them around endlessly and without cause. Not a chance of that not happening though.

Jensen deal I give an A-. This is a C.

Nyq has that NTC though. Might have been two possible suitors he approved of and neither had much to trade.

 

[Oddbob]

I think Zucc going first brought the return down a bit, but I am happy with this. I didn't want to see him not get traded, and I also don't want him back. Time to move younger and different. We have had Nyquist, and we didn't win with him. A return means, too much money, too many years, and a barf NTC which players like Nyquist should never get. Only Datsyuk, Zetterberg, Larkin level players should get NTC or NMC's.

Oh it’s Florida’s 2nd round pick this year. That’s not bad.

Where did you see this?

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

Where did you see this?

Seconded. That would be a nice surprise.

Without details this is speculation. And a C is average. He got the average return for Nyquist. He gets an average grade. He got a kings Ransom for Tatar, he gets an A. He gets a good return for Jensen he gets an A-/B+.

 

[datsyukfan]

Clear the decks, get Hughes and go big game hunting on July 1 with Stevie Y in charge

 

[Claypool]

Thank god.

 

[DetroitRed]

Well, yeah. Either way it's Kenny's fault because he gave him the NTC and did the trade. But I think just the nature of the deal speaks about the level of competition for him. Couldn't have been great.

I really don't know. I wonder if they pulled the trigger a bit early?

 

[Ezekial]

Seconded. That would be a nice surprise.

This ESPN article said we get the lower of the two, so getting Florida's second is a huge boost.
Sharks acquire forward Nyquist from Red Wings

That's great news. I really think they could package their latter two 2nds and move into the first round.

 

[Tetsuo]

I give this trade a B+ based on the idea that this is two 2nds. That is slightly better than market value for a pure rental. In all likelihood, Zucc goes for less than that and he's the more proven player. The fact that Ottawa had such a talented group of forwards that they had to move on from all at the same time thinned the market. Compact that with Gus having a NTC, writing was on the wall that this trade wouldn't be amazing for Detroit.
