I'm not sure this was a great move. I don't think Pinelli had the kind of year to justify this.

A bit surprised.

Has he really been playing that good this season in the OHL
to deserve this ELC :huh:

Do people realize that, unlike college players, just because he signed doesn't mean he's not going to be playing in the OHL next year? I'm not sure what people think the problem or "mistake" is with this. If they think he's a legit prospect, they're going to sign him, whether it's now or next year.

He is a good prospect and a bit of a character player. Jarret Stoll like.

He was out for small stretches due to injuries. Great at face offs but probably wouldn’t put up a lot of points if he ever makes it. His offensive stats are kinda underwhelming but not horrifying. Without missing any games he still probably would have been the leading scorer.

RHD we got in spades though. How has Wallinder's development going
rogles playing for a championship and as a 19 year old wallinders leading dmen in playoff minutes , obviously a good sign . and we all know yzerman likes his big mobile dmen so hes probably not moving as has too high of upside . but im thinking a trade could happen between these two because of kings center depth and redwings having only larkin

Hronek is slightly out of the requirements.
Not much interest in him
around red wing forums pre deadline there were fans saying kings were interested in bertuzzi . so maybe this summer a tuzzi for kings center prospect + happens

You can have him for Seider. :)
have you noticed how skinny seider is ? ive no idea but im thinking he does all body weight and core exercises without any heavy weight training . adds up to him hitting harder than bigger muscled slower twitching guys . seider explodes into hits because of the quicker muscle twitch

Would Iafallo and Pinelli be a start for Bertruzzi?

You'd have to think that would only be attractive to Detroit if there was 100% no chance of Bertuzzi coming back (I have no idea about that status etc)

Otherwise they could get more I would think.
