StamkosIf we can only have one or the other, do we want Stammer or Kane?
So if the wings get Trouba, at 5.5M, Kane at 5M, Stamkos at 5M thats 15.5M against 32M open in cap. That leaves 16.5M for Raymond and Seider which seems reasonable. DO IT. Fill the rest of the spots with young players and spare parts
I can understand why should be an ex. You're likely just as insufferable in real lifeThanks for the ex wife energy.
That leaves $16.5M for Raymond and Seider if the Red Wings want to go into the season with only 9 forwards on the NHL roster. Young players and spare parts still take up cap space.So if the wings get Trouba, at 5.5M, Kane at 5M, Stamkos at 5M thats 15.5M against 32M open in cap.

You guys done with the personal insults or no?How do you fill the other spots with 0 cap space?

Bridge deals for Ray and MO with trading off Holl's contract may be the solution?That leaves $16.5M for Raymond and Seider if the Red Wings want to go into the season with only 9 forwards on the NHL roster. Young players and spare parts still take up cap space.

They’re going to get 16-18 million combined. And moving Holl still doesn’t clear enough space to help a lot. Detroit has a tight cap situation for the next season or two, so big moves are unlikely, especially if Kane and Ghost get re-signed.Bridge deals for Ray and MO with trading off Holl's contract may be the solution?
f*** that noise. Neither player is worth sitting on dead space next season.Use the 35+ option for both Perron and Kane.
Minimum base salaries and bonuses sliding to next year.
something happen already...
One other thing I was hearing yesterday. Don’t be surprised if Detroit does make a run at Askarov using Michael Rasmussen as bait.
Would be REALLY bummed if we don't bring back Kane
Even more bummed if we sign Matt Roy to a 4-6 year contract. I know some of you disagree but I'm just not digging that player profile considering out UFA signings the past two years
They'd have to agree to that. And all that does is kick the can a bit. Then we're screwed next year.Use the 35+ option for both Perron and Kane.

Another thing to remember. There’s a second buyout period later this summer. You’re also allowed to exceed the cap by 10% over the summer. So they don’t have to be pushed into buying anyone out today for more cap space. They know they can clear another $7 million at least.
One other thing I was hearing yesterday. Don’t be surprised if Detroit does make a run at Askarov using Michael Rasmussen as bait. I don’t think they would do a top prospect, but if they did, it would likely be ASP. You’d assume Cossa or Augustine would be involved in that somewhere too, and they’d likely get something else in return from Nashville.
People shouldn’t ignore the value a Michael Rasmussen holds. His contract is great as he enters his prime and big Cs with some skill don’t grow on trees. My issue would be, he’s taken steps every year and he’s entering his 25 year old year. Right when big Cs start producing for 5-7 years. They’ve invested so much into him, it would stink to see it all happen somewhere else. Especially on that contract.
People are still extremely high on him despite the garbage you hear on fan sites. At worst we know he’s a legit 3C for his prime years. His hands are really soft though, and that’s what intrigues people, because the game has finally slowed down for him. That’s exactly when you start seeing the numbers start increasing.
They'd have to agree to that. And all that does is kick the can a bit. Then we're screwed next year.
Get ready to be bummed. Also no one is considering how f***ing cheap Chris Illitch is! No way do we out bid for Stamkos AND Kane. Be prepared for NEITHER to be on the Wings. We will suffer til the kids are ready if they ever are and will get the #11 pick in the 2025 draft...Would be REALLY bummed if we don't bring back Kane

Not at the cost of ASP. I'm opposed to moving that guy for essentially anyone. He's our top prospect I'd rather move Danielson which is also very, very gross.Don't toy with my heart, Pete. I've been an Askarov stan forever.
