Its different though. Vanek on an expiring contract 2 years ago after playing great only brought us a 3rd. He wont come close to the type of return Tatar brought in.

If not, we can still get something out of him, and $3 million isn't going to kill us. 1 Wheelchairsuperhero reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just don't think the return will be that big if we trade him. Hopefully I can be proved wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mackel 735 Report post Posted July 1, 2018 He got a full no trade with the contract so he's probably not getting flipped at the deadline. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he’s healthy I don’t see him not being traded. The NTC is just to give him some leverage on where he goes. I don’t think he’d reject everything presented to him.

It's 1 year, I can live with it. He's still a productive player, I was a big fan of his last time he was with us. I'll only be upset if It's obvious that he's a direct reason a young'un doesn't make the team, but I'll reserve my frustration for then. I also appreciate players that seem like they really want to be here and aren't just giving me lip service. Like with Green, It's been reported for a while now that he enjoys it here and playing for the Wings. I feel the same about Vanek, though obviously that's just me.

LeftWinger 5,065 Report post Posted July 1, 2018 If he stays healthy, gets utilized correctly (I'm looking at you Blashill) he may get 25-30 goals. Besides, he had very good chemistry with Nielsen and Helm. If not being able trade him this TDL means we flip (possibly)Howard and Nyquist, I'm good with that. 3 Dabura, krsmith17 and Wheelchairsuperhero reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
