[Detroit Knights]

Or Larkin is going on IR and they'll figure it out when he is back.

Bryan Rust makes 5 million a year and wouldn't crack 50 points on our roster. Please, no.

 

[norrisnick]

Who?

 

[Snuggs]

Who said Kostin had no value? Pulled a player and a 7th rdp!

Penguins Rumors: Bryan Rust Being Linked To Hometown Team

Trade rumors are ablaze as the NHL trade deadline nears, with the Detroit Red Wings being linked in discussions surrounding Bryan Rust from...

IDK if it's been mentioned.

Makes no sense. Another depth forward. Need to sell for picks or get top line players.

 

[norrisnick]

A D for GR because someone's coming up?

 

[Redwing66]

Shuffling the lawn chairs

 

[JediOrderPizza]

Who?

Some dude we are gonna bury. Just like the sharks were.

 

[norrisnick]

Frees up $2M for next year.

 

[datsyukfan]

Totally a cap move. Gets off 2 mill for next year

Surprising honestly, he pulled off a pick too.

 

[schuelma24]

Good start. Now dump Holl.

 

[norrisnick]

In doing a write-up on Kostin on the mains, it clicked in my head that Klim joined the NHL like 30 years too late. DPE era he'd have been a McCarty. But even a 24yo McCarty dumped into the modern NHL would be equally useless.

 

[GreatGordie9]

Good start. Now dump Holl.

If Berggren is coming up maybe Edvinnson is as well.

Yzerman freeing up cap space. Interesting. Big move(s) coming?

Bringing up our best winger prospect is shuffling the lawn chairs?

Probably more if a next year move

Mo and Ray extensions. It's cap space for next year. Klim doesn't do anything cap wise for this year. $2M prorated this late is nothing.

Or alternately... Yzerman just more than balanced out Ras' raise.

 

[DavidpauseReinbacher]

It depressingly feels like the options follow:
Make a small trade, squeak into playoffs , first round exit
Make a small trade, miss the playoffs
Make no trade,miss playoffs or immediate first round exit

You were expecting to become a contender at the deadline? I'm curious as to what you thought the team is lol.

 

[Henkka]

Nice.

Had to remove next season cap.

Think this was one of Yzerman priorities...

Kostin just never excelled, like had some potential like Sprong. Guys just went on different directions.

Now we need to add that "snarl" defenceman.

Radgo Gudas. Is that you? Holl could to Ducks... +incentives.

 

[Tatar Shots]

I think it was still a good gamble by Yzerman, unfortunately it didn’t work out. 500k cap hit for Yamamoto the next two years is whatever I suppose.

 

[OneMoreTry]

This.

Can Draper now draft his youger of the sons?
