Karlsson. Easily.Out of Hedman, Forsling, Karlsson, Andersson, Dahlin, Ekholm, and Brodin - who would you cut?
US fans better hope that squad doesn't make the same mistake with Kane...

Brodin
EK
Pretty sure we can pay him this offseason, and we should.On pace for getting a Seider contract in 26/27. At that time, all the D veterans contracts will have expired, which means that we won’t have to do anything panicky to pay Ed.
At times it feels like the rebuild hasn't gone anywhere, but I think we fail to truly appreciate what we have in Seider and Ed and how far that will take us. While the middle and bottom pairs clearly need to be blown up, I would much rather go looking for mid-pair and bottom-pair defensemen in the draft/free agency/trade market, than top-pair talent like Seider and Ed.
The Yzerplan could very well be vindicated once Ed, Mo, ASP, and Cossa are playing together nightly.
I like Mo and Ed together, but I could see a pairing of Ed-ASP becoming Lidstrom-Rafalski-esque, where they’re showing up nightly on the scoresheet with both the primary and secondary assists on a goal they got by springing a forward.
Really hoping we get a top 4 LD in the next year … then you can really see things taking shape.
Not just seider and Ed. Rayzor is looking like a legit all star. And cossa and Augustine could be potential franchise goalies.At times it feels like the rebuild hasn't gone anywhere, but I think we fail to truly appreciate what we have in Seider and Ed and how far that will take us.

I’d add that while it’s early, Kasper is showing the potential for more offense than most were expecting.Not just seider and Ed. Rayzor is looking like a legit all star. And cossa and Augustine could be potential franchise goalies.
People just panic because they have no patience. Yzerman had to rebuild the entire prospect pool which takes around 7 years to actually start seeing that team on ice.
Yeah, they need to find their Brad Stuart to complement the Big 3. A more recent comparison would be a guy like Chris Tanev.
The dream would be going all homegrown and having Wallinder grow into that role. I’d settle for Marcus Petterson in the meantime.
That's an excellent pick.I think Mario Ferraro would be a good target as well.
Yeah, if he signs this year, we can probably get him for a hair or two less than Seider. Next year he could eclipse Seider. If he’s putting up 0.5 ppg this year with no PP time, and he gets PP time next year, he could be looking at 55-60 points. Get him signed before he costs 8 figures.
since it's painfully obvious that this is going to be the next thing that we all lose our minds over, i'd just like to say that edvinson's agent would have to be flat out incompetent to allow simon to extend before he plays the last year of his elc. i could see him putting up 80 points next year. brother is going to get paaaaaaaaaaaaaaidYeah, if he signs this year, we can probably get him for a hair or two less than Seider.

80 points is absurd. He’s gonna get paid but that’s an insane thing to say.since it's painfully obvious that this is going to be the next thing that we all lose our minds over, i'd just like to say that edvinson's agent would have to be flat out incompetent to allow simon to extend before he plays the last year of his elc. i could see him putting up 80 points next year. brother is going to get paaaaaaaaaaaaaaid

I have said in other threads, but want to say it here. By season's end the experts will be saying this guy would have been a lock for the Calder.
He is already an anchor top 4 D'man for Detroit and, likely any team in the NHL. At day's end, he will be better than Mo.
He is UNREAL good.
Mo and Simon ...... WOW! They could be an all-star pairing year over year over year.
Just a side note here. Simon's weight gain secret.. avos
