Wouldn't mind seeing him on our roster. Has seemed to have a knack for scoring big goals with the Wings the last few years.

Samuelsson is pretty versatile so I could see him filling various roles:
1. If Burrows does not pan out or goes cold with the Sedins, Samuelsson could be slotted in.
2. He could play wing on a line with Demitra and Kesler and add to the two-way ability of the line.
3. He could play on the third line and add more experience as well as skill to the bottom 6.

If we're acquiring him, then obviously at least one of the young forwards is moving on.
Agreed.
If we acquire Samuelsson (which I really hope we do), then a Hansen or Raymond will be packaged with Schneider to bring in a puck-moving d-man.

He would be good pickup since nobody else on this team has the experience of a stanley cup

I actually think Samuelsson has more offensive upside than he has been allowed to show. In my opinion, he could easily slot into a top 6 role.
I wonder if we could sign Samuelsson to a 2 or 3 year deal at about $2.5m per, then offer sheet Barker for $3.5m for 4 years.

Samuelsson - Kesler - Demitra
Bernier - Wellwood - Hodgson
Hordichuk - Johnson - Rypien
Hansen/Raymond
Salo - Mitchell
Bieksa - Edler
Barker - SOB
Rome
Luongo
Niittymaki

Its all whether or not we can sign Luongo to a contract extension...and i sure hope people on CDC arent thinking Samuelsson is a top 6 forward, this guy excelled in Detroit because he is a solid 2 way player, he also averages 5 shots a game! something this team needs.

He would be a pretty nice pick up by Gillis. A lot of experience and scores big goals. Get it done MG.

Schneider, Hansen and a pick to T.O. for Kaberle and a Prospect.....

I Disagree (maybe its just me)....but we don't need another "borderline" Top 6 forward on this team!!
Borderline? This guy has been a constant 40-point player getting 12-15 minutes on Detroit's third line. This guy is a top six forward on any other team.

I've been wanting MG to take a run at him, i think he's a great fit and should fit in with the mold of the team. I'd rather have a guy like that for a good price tag than some overpriced guy who goal sucks (ahem, gaborik)
Thanks Ramirez! for the sig, you're the best!
