I dunno what Holland plans to do about the logjam on D. Already at 8 needing roster spot, adding Fowler makes 9 and Ducks don't want/need D in return. Probably have to put Sproul on waivers, which would be another decent asset potentially lost for nothing. Do they bury Ericsson in minors and take the 950k cap savings? Ouellet probably forced to spend season in the press box.
I do something like Tatar + Jurco/Pulky + 2nd for Fowler. If it's not enough so be it, I like Fowler but just not sure he really helps Wings all that much.

Think most ducks fans would be happy with that trade, and I think Fowler would help more then you'd think he is prob over rated by duck fans but massively under rated by opposing fans
What is Dekeyser expected to get on his new deal? He and Mrazek should easily surpass the cap space you have left no?

Around 4M for each I'd suspect. Wings will get over 5M in cap relief when they LTIR Franzen and Vitale.

that shipped has sailed apparently. PLus if we were smart we would have moved him or sbisa and retained Hammer to mentor the youth for a cheaper cap hit.

In misery of redwings of suckage for a long time
Please keep Ron Hextall's number at about #5 on your speed dial through the season for defensive help.
It just makes things too complicated, agreed.
Tatar+ for Fowler makes the most sense. What the addition looks like from the Wings I have no idea
