Detroit would you do this

Well, of course Detroit would do that but Tampa would have to consider that pretty carefully. The Wings are taking Johnson so that's good but they're only getting a top-8 protected pick for a legit 2C. I guess it depends on how long this goes on. At this point, I'm thinking JBB is going to wait to see if there even is a season.

Wings aren't doing it. Cirelli is good but not worth the 9th pick or an unprotected 2022 pick if we fall within the top 8 of 2021.

Also taking on tj alone is going to cost them a first plus a top prospect. This is an easy decline from the wings pov

It’s an interesting idea but I don’t think I’d do it. IMO Johnson would cost a 1st to dump. That turns this trade into 2 1st’s for Cirelli which is too much for us to give up.

Is Tyler shot? I am not sure. He is one year off of scoring 29 goals. If he can bounce back Detroit gets a 2C and 3C or RW for one pick. I was disappointed that Tyler did not have a better playoff run.

If I was Yzerman, my first round pick would be entirely off the table. A lottery protected 2021 1st just turns into a great 2022 pick for TB.
