what? It would take at minimum a 2nd (likely more) just to rid of Rasmussen.

So we’re getting Boeser for free?
Rasmussen is a 6’6” 3rd liner who can defend decently well and chip in 25-30 points. He only makes 3M. The fact that you think he has negative value is laughable.

He’s not great but he’s far from negative asset lol. Especially with the premium GMs place on size
 
Why would Vancouver consider this?
If they think they lose Boeser this summer anyway they get 2/3rds of a 3rd line for basically nothing.

To address the proposal, there is nothing about it that makes sense for the Wings at this point. They finally get a decent 3rd line cobbled together, blowing it up to toss another winger on the 2nd line without a center is pointless.
 
to detroit: Boeser 0% retained but signed to a extension? (idk what deal but some kind of deal?)
to vancouver: veleno + 2nd + berggren

how does that tickle your fancy, eh?

edit: just to explain, i suppose:

if boeser is going to walk which it seems like(?) then you aren't retaining anything on him with a higher cap hit, you get berggren who is a top 6 player if given the opportunity for more than 10 games at a time and you get a depth player in veleno with a second. No, veleno is not a big piece and I won't act like he is, but you get another center and a pretty damn good playmaking winger that can shoot in berggren.

I wanted boeser last year I think and still would rather have him now. I never liked veleno, but that's neither here nor there, we have enough center depth for at least this season for us to get by and figure out next season when danielson is coming, kasper may transition to center next year, with compher/copp and motte.
