I Agree with points made by Beltov. Some good moves made (especially the Smith buyout) and Ortio needing a little more time and mentorship. The Wings truthfully are just too loyal to buy Smith out, I wouldn't be surprised to see Cleary get paid for another year of minor hockey and don't we all just love Franzen's contract? I would be concerned with lines 3 and 4. I think your missing a little depth if you had an injury on line 1 or 2. Yes, Zetterberg played 82 games this year, but he will need a break here and there next year. I Like the Backes move, he fits in Detroit hockey. I don't think Lucic is Red Wing material. His style just doesn't fit here. Yes, Backes and Lucic are similar styles, but Lucic is on the dirty side. Bakes is more Abdelkader. On the D, I don't dislike what your doing, I like the Brodie move. It works well for both sides. However, I think the upgrade could come from a Yandle or someone similar for a little extra cash. Howard scares me, so moving Mrazek also scares me... but overall, I would say this is a decent summer for you.
