Speculation: With Copp out for the season and Husso traded. Wings got $14m in cap space. What should Yzerman and co do with it?

They should buy, buy, buy! There's never been an easier time to get into the playoffs. It's time to give the team a taste of that.

As long as he does something this time around. Still furious he didn’t do a single thing last deadline, even if it’s not a big splash.

I think they're going to pry a center out of Seattle that's gonna kinda seem like it came outta nowhere.

Jared McCann?

To Det
LD/RD Connor Murphy (50% retained)
Ryan Danato (39 points this season)

To Chi
Justin Holl
Det 1st

Both players would probably happy to extend in Det.

Detroit doesn’t need retention help, they have plenty of cap this year and next. Donato would be a pure rental as the Wings don’t need another 3C. Connor Murphy would be fine as our 3RD for this year and next (depending on whether ASP is NHL ready or needs a year in the AHL). But being 33 at the end of his contract, he wouldn’t be re-signed either. So a first for essentially a couple low end rentals is a bit to steep. Remove the retention from Chicago, change the 1st to a 2nd and we can even throw in a B prospect.

So what should they do? Dive into the trade market, or just carry it on like it is and hope it's enough for a playoff spot?

At first it looked like his eyes were bleeded.
