LeftWinger 5,129 Report post Posted January 22 after a 7 game win streak, Wings are now 1-4 the last 5, it's time to start visiting trade talks again. The "NEW" coach smell has worn off. Need to upgrade D and top 6 positions. In reality they need a LHD and RHD. With ASP on the horizon, I guess we could get by with a LHD playing on the right side, but need that LHD side upgraded. Lindgren, Byram, Provorov? Up front, that #2 C spot needs addressed. Cozens is a legit choice for now and future. Unfortunately nobody is going to take Copp for 2 more season's, and he also has a bit on control to where he could be traded. 1 Rick D reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why does it feel like we have been looking for a 2C for 15 years? 1 LeftWinger reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Copp doesnt need to be traded. He is fine, just overpaid.

Copp eats hard minutes and that is a thankless but necessary job. Trade Yzerman if we don’t like the contract. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jimmybigrigs69 366 Report post Posted March 12 So... looking at the offseason. Kane, Petry, and Lyon are probably gone. The dream is dead for Kane. He barely re-signed last year, he likely will want to pursue with a better team next year. Petry sucks. Prolly retires. With Mrazek acquired and Cossa on the doorstep, I dont see the wing paying Lyon. Good luck in UFA bro. Craig Smith prolly also retiring. Motte can come back if he's cheap again. At D, ASP will prolly take Petry's place. I think Wallinder and Buium should seriously be considered for spots as well. At F, Mazur and Soderblom will prolly get permamanent spots. At G, Cossa will likely be waiting in the wings if either talbot or mrazek falter. If Yzerman signs more tarasenkos i swear to god i will lose my sheet. 1 Rick D reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
