The reason many people request trades with AA is his holdout in 2017. The perceive he doesn’t want to be here.
The logic behind my trade is many RFAs for Wings next offseason including AA, Mantha, Bertuzzi. Trading for RNH (who is only 20 months older and signed for an additional season) gives Wings a 1-2 punch at center that rivals just about anyone in league. I think the Oilers have some cap pressure and will be looking to make a move.
I can understand a reluctance to trade picks, but the Wings have lots of draft assets and only so many pro contracts to give. Using a couple to improve the most important position, and shake up a losing roster, makes sense IMO.
Could they keep AA, sure. I probably agree with you. But the point of Armchair GM is to mess around with potential deals, right?
