Remember the ODD line? O’Reilly, Duchene and Downie. That was a good line.

I think Yzerman has done a mediocre job, but Ken Holland left a disaster. It's hard to recover from 6th overall Zadina when your other top prospects are Cholowski, Rasmussen, and Veleno.
Detroit should've kept tanking, but based on the direction they took, they should keep trying to get into the playoffs. Their chance to take the next step will probably be in ~two years if/when Cossa, Edvinsson, and Danielson are developed (I'm not sure about Kasper, I think he might be a depth piece).

Although imagine having to re-up both Cale and Mikko in the same off season... If Mikko chose 8 years instead of 6..

You know he wants to trade both, it’s in his blood

I'm more curious about what we do if we get another Cup, in Mikko's final year. Trade/Re-sign?

I would trade Nichushkin for Robertson, or Whalstrom in a heartbeat.
Give away the better player with enormous red flags to at least get a decent depth option for the forward group.

you are talking about Nick, right? just to be sure...
Calling Wahlstrom a decent depth option is a bit of a stretch.
My entire plan would be to spend all of Landeskog's salary and have him back for Game 1 in the playoffs. Give him the entire season to get ready.

If he can get down the ice without snorting cocaine, he’s good enough for me.

Landeskog needs to PLAY. We are beyond the point of holding him out to get him more ready. He's already missed 2 full seasons. He misses another one and he just might not be able to get back into the swing of the NHL anymore. I'm hoping for an October/November return at the latest.

As much of an impact player as Nuke is when he is actually available (he’s one of my favourite Avs of all time when he is on the ice), I’m desperately hoping the management team is able to move him to someone willing to take the gamble
Yeah, Nuke isn't worth the gamble again in the playoffs. I'd bet he will test positive in the season again.

One thing we can possibly look forward too, if he tests positive, his contract will be terminated/suspended indefinitely and we'll have 6 million to spend at the deadline.

If they really wanted to trade Rantanen, which I doubt, it should have been done at the draft. Most teams are maxed out already.
