kipwinger 8,675 Report post Posted June 26, 2023 Yzerman is in a strong negotiating position here. The entire world knows he's interested in Konecny. Ottawa/Debrincat start asking for too much and he pivots to Philly and lets them figure it out with some other team. 1 Rick D reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Akakabuto 1,831 Report post Posted June 26, 2023 Not thrilled with giving up pick 17. But if you think about this is essentially Hronek+Zadina+4th for DeBrincat. And since we all happily would give up a 4th to get rid of Zadina its just Hronek straight up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kipwinger 8,675 Report post Posted June 26, 2023 The Wings are starting to remind of me the 2006-2013 Tigers. They have one glaring weakness (in the Tigers case, relief pitching) and they don't do anything to address it year after year. Just one cheap, stop gap, move after the last.

town123 212 Report post Posted June 26, 2023 I hope I am right, but I am calling bulls*** on this handshake deal. The Sens don't have much to any leverage and I can't believe SY would spit up a 1st and 2nd plus Z or two 1sts plus Z. Who wrote this article? If it's true Ima gonna cry a bit.

Akakabuto 1,831 Report post Posted June 26, 2023 Rumors like this are always exaggerated. ”2023 1st or a 2024 1st” becomes ”2023 1st AND a 2024 1st”. Hell, it might even be Yzerman who has a particular player in mind for pick 17 and told Ottawa the pick will be next year if the player is still there. 1 The 91 of Ryans reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

diehardredwingsfan58 157 Report post Posted June 26, 2023 5 hours ago, kipwinger said: Fingers crossed Zadina is going back the other way. Seems like every few years there's a guy who is adored (and apologized for) endlessly by 50% of the fanbase. Then they get traded and suck on another team and everybody finally realizes they sucked the whole time until the next guy comes along. Brendan Smith, Tomas Jurco, Mantha, and now Zadina all fit the bill. I'll be glad when the debate is finally put to bed. Supposedly the 17OA+42ndOA+Zadina, If that's true i can definitely live with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The 91 of Ryans 3,019 Report post Posted June 27, 2023 (edited) "trades are hard" Ken Holland Honestly, this speculation is giving me reverse-boner. I will die of embarrassment if Yzerman gives up too many assets in this trade. Trades are too risky. Why can't they just keep drafting forever?

LeftWinger 5,065 Report post Posted June 27, 2023 16 hours ago, Jonas Mahonas said: Strange. So I guess we have to wait til pick 17 on Wednesday. Will be interesting. Yzerman should do his magic and trade up from the #17 to guarantee that the unnamed prospect is there. If not, I guess Debrincat plays one more season in Ottawa and comes here UFA. It's a stupid stipulation though having a certain prospect there. No other team that Debrincat will sign long term with can give them a higher pick than 17. Just do the deal. If we trade the 17, then what do we acquire Konecny and Krug with? Boston's 1st? Zadina, 17, 43 for Debrincat. Johansson, Boston 1st for Krug, Konecny. Find the right backup goalie and possibly a veteran D (OEL or Klingberg?) and the playoffs are in our sights! 1 Jonas Mahonas reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With the idea of Zadina going the other way (which is fine) I'm still pissed at Holland that he left both Hughes and Bouchard looking right at us and drafted Zadina. Holland just destroyed this team with his stupid drafting at the end. Ok, breathe, Yzerman will make this right. Edited June 27, 2023 by LeftWinger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
