As a Detroit fan, isn’t there a huge chance at this point that wallinder ends up better than jiricek? Not sure if I’d be okay with a trade like that. Jiricek will be getting traded off of potential and old hype, rather than what he’s shown. It’s a tough trade for many because he is good but his refusal to go down to the AHL consistently and struggling with weight gain are glaring issues.
Let's put it this way, there's a much higher chance Wallinder never hits 50 games or 10 points than there is of him surpassing Jiricek's prime.

Or Juricek continues to drop in value and a Zegras offer would be beyond what he could return? Zegras has proven what he can do in the league. Juricek hasn’t.
Zegras has proven he's a one-dimensional player failing at that dimension. He can't even put up over .5ppg in a high scoring era. Jiricek potential ceiling is still higher and his value has not dropped below Zegras and his heavy price tag.

Waddell should be fired if that's a 1-1 trade he accepts
