Confirmed Trade: [ANA/DET] Ville Husso for future considerations

[MMC]

So Anaheim took a 4+m goalie off of Detroits hands because “AHL Depth”. Hard to believe Seravalli that there isn’t more to this.

Guess Verbeek could just be doing Yzerman a favour.

Deal doesn’t make much sense unless Gibson is being moved to me.

It makes a lot of sense if you read what’s been posted in the thread

With all of the wing prospects we couldn’t even get a change of scenery older prospect like Tuomisto to help replace Dumoulin if we end up trading him?

Maybe Steve told Pat that he is going for a big trade and promised them some picks or prospects to be the 3rd party team? Or maybe he’s got some blackmail on him lol.

There comes a point where you have to compete, he has shown in the past he's willing to make a splash. Clearing 3.6 mil for this season only, days before the deadline tells me he's ready to make a significant move if it presents itself.

If the Schenns are indeed available, I could see Detroit going in that direction.

Brayden schenn means we are competing?

Can’t they borrow a goalie from some stacked ECHL team and not hook up Detroit?

Tough time of year to find an AHL quality depth goaltender who's on an expiring deal and wouldn't cost assets.

Not sure how many expendable depth goalies there are. More teams than I expected are running lean and only have four goalies with NHL deals. You got some older non-prospect goalies on AHL only deals like Kevin Poulin, Jon Gillies, Ken Appleby who aren't palatable solutions. Playoff teams are holding onto guys like Kahkonen/Hellberg/Domingue/Driedger as insurance #3s.

We may also see Detroit offload someone to San Jose as well.

This is a little payback for the Robbie Fabbri and a 4th trade, no doubt.

So don’t be surprised if Detroit adds someone like Ristolainen from Philly and strangely enough San Jose (apparently for no reason) takes a Justin Holl for those same future considerations, not even being part of the deal with Philly.
