Seven pounds soft Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Alex Edler + 2017 2nd round pick for Gustav Nyquist + 2017 1st round pick Its simple. The red wings need defence and we need scoring. Alex Edler would be slotted in as their best Dman right off the bat. Since the ufa defence market is very thin this trade makes a lot of sense. Let them overpay for free agent scoring.

Kurt Nirvanagut Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Benning prefers to trade two draft picks for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucker 67 Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Could work? I'd love to have Nyquist, but not sure DET would be willing to part with him. Edler could possibly waive for DET as well. Don't think DET would be adding to their offer though, could be the opposite. to DET: Edler (30) + 4th to VAN: Nyquist (26) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanuck Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 DET has always liked Edler is the speculation. But I doubt they give us Nyquist and a 1st even if we throw in a 2nd. In fact, now that Datsyuk is gone for sure, I don't see them giving up Nyquist at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say trading for scoring winger instead of overpaying an FA is the better path. Especially with our all of a sudden abundance of Defence.

MeanSeanBean Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 My best buddy is a Winger so I tend to hear alot about it. Nyquist hasn't panned out the way he was projected too. A lot of people thought he was going to be a top line winger but hes projecting more like a solid 2nd now. With all the young guys like Larkin, and Mantha being injected into the line up, and Tatar and Abdelkader solid options for the top 6 he could become more expendable. Question is if they get Stammer or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are supposed to have a drafting GM then better to keep picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kloubek Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 At first I was totally going to agree this would be a good option to explore. But really, besides Hutton, who is going to score from our back end? Our d was horrible last year in scoring, and Hutton cannot do it all alone. In a couple of years we might be ok with Juolevi and Stecher, but even then there are no guarantees. If anything, I'd like to get rid of Sbisa to bring Hamhuis back. And I doubt they'd want him. Still think Edmonton would be our best bet there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure Detroit gives him up; though you gotta give to get I suppose. This does nothing for Detroit's cap situation though. They are looking for a couple of talented forwards as well. (Or, at least one, as they are making a run at signing Stamkos). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sedin Sedin Virtanen Nyquist Sutter Hansen Baer Bo Burr Etem Granlund Dorsett Hamhuis Tanev Hutton Gudbranson Sbisa Trymankin Pedan Biega Markstrom Miller In the light of the Taylor H for Larsson A - I say that JB could potentially trade Edler for Nyquist. BUT the 1st issue here is Detroit willing to part with someone like Nyquist for someone like Edler. Then the 2nd issue is Edler willing to be traded to Detroit? It would be interesting to see what players and prospects could be gotten to the teams that Edler would agree to be traded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe anyone with a NTC needs to supply the management with a team list of some sort every quarter. Things can change and need assurance that to support that change the players and the teams will both be looked after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
