I think 7x7 was a more than fair offer for Lindholm, if those reports are accurate. If that wasn't enough to keep him, methinks he wants to be on a different team with a different opportunity.
This has been my argument for a long time. I'm much more comfortable paying defencemen than forwards. As long as the ice-time distribution makes sense, however.

Red Wings trade Gibson, a RHD they selected in last years draft
for a 2nd rounder and a RW Nashville selected in the 3rd round last year.

Does anybody know when the schedule is going to be released? I thought it was usually done in June?

I would not be surprised if he gets marginally more in AAV, but yes it was a fair offer. I agree, on the whole, I don't think he was particularly interested in staying for a number of reasons. Not least of which is that he's probably looking for somewhere he can play true top-line minutes as basically a 1C.
Yeah, I guess a 2nd + a guy taken in the 3rd last year is decent value but Gibson had a really nice year and is a 6'4 RHD and I don't know why Detroit would be in a rush to move him.
If we look at a lot of the trades where a team sheds a bad contract as a part of something bigger, we'll see that the cost to shed the contract is less than if you are trading that contract with a sweetener.
Flames traded a 1st with Monahan. However, Senators traded a 1st, Kastelic, and Korpisalo while retaining 1m for the next four years for Ullmark. We see this as well with the Karlsson trade and the big Provorov/Severson/Walker trade.
I know I've been saying I expect them to move Mikheyev by taking on a bad contract but maybe it's possible to slide him in with another asset for a pretty strong upgrade.

detroit has 100 good d prospects. i think they were just moving a guy that doesn't fit a need for them for someone who does and an extra pick. they were going to have to work in johansson, gibson and asp into a right side that already has seider, chiarot, petry and holl

That would probably best case scenario. Vatrano for Mikheyev + would be interesting.
Gibson is 2-3 years away, though. Chiarot/Petry/Holl will all be long gone before he plays an NHL game and Seider could be approaching UFA status depending on his next contract. Anton Johansson is a middling prospect and his presence shouldn't really change anything.
Cant help but think what could have been this season! We had lots of players playing below market value AAV.
Just a reminder, no team has ever won the Stanley Cup when they have a player making more than 10mil AAV on their roster.
Petey will be at 11 next year and Q Hughes will be past 10 in a couple of years.
Were going to need to find some fantastic value on players making ELC or undervalued veterans.

Starting to appear that the Canucks' Free Agent players are Negotiating with other NHL teams that have fewer Nonnegotiables.
‘Just a reminder, no team has ever won the Stanley Cup when they have a player making more than 10mil AAV on their roster.’
That will likely change as the cap rises.
Bobrovsky made $10 million AAV. I doubt that if he made $10.1 million the result would be different.

I think he knows he wasn’t going to play ahead of EP and JT and would have a hard living up to that contract in a very secondary role.

I was actually thinking about this today. NJ wants to move Marino to add Pesce, so I wonder if that's possible and what the add would be from the Canucks side. They'd probably want retention for the cap space.
Swapping Marino for Mikheyev basically 1-to-1 salary would be a massive coup and probably worth the cost.

So many teams desperately need a Mikheyev. Can't wait to see the bidding war start!
It was reported the Canucks tried to trade for Marino at the ‘22 deadline and had interest again at the 2022 draft.
Edit: Here’s an article about the deadline. Draft may have been more speculation.
Canucks have interest in Penguins defenceman John Marino
The Vancouver Canucks' search for a young defenceman recently zeroed in on the Pittsburgh Penguins' John Marino, but their pursuit has run into a roadblock.
So the Red Wings turned around and used that 2nd to get the Sharks to take Jake Walman. However, I thought Jake Walman was one of their good defencemen? What the hell is this.
