1. Vanek won't be on the fourth line
2. Larkin will get a longer deal
3. No way we sign Grabner, Filppula and Vanek
4. De Haan likely signs in NJ or PHI.
5. Why trade Witkowski? He is the only physical force we have.
6. Why are we trading Nyquist for a 26 Year Old Defenseman who isnt that great?
7. Why is Glendening on the Second line???
8. Ericson will stay till the end of his contract

1) My goal wasn't to form lines
2) Larkin and Detroit are currently talking in that range/timeline
3) Maybe Detroit doesn't get all three this is called "Armchair-GM"
4) De Haan hasn't signed yet
5) I did it to make cap room
6) Nyquist is in the last year of his contract and Detroit needs to get something for him instead of letting him walk. They also acquired draft picks if you didn't see...
7) See #1
8) Ericson is useless and Detroit would be better off if they bought out his long contact

Ericson has two years left. It will be easier to ride out his contract than buy it out.
Larkin and Holland are talking long term not 3 Years.
Yes, they acquired picks but got a useless prospect in return.
The hell do you mean "I traded Witkowski to clear up cap". His contract is literally less than 1 Million
