You will highly regret that Lucic deal. Have we learned nothing when it comes to long term deals in Detroit? Columbus doesn't want your garbage Ericsson contract so you can go out and sign another long term high value deal. Your dumbing a bad contract to offer a bad contract. Detroit didn't sign Drew Miller to trade him. Assume he will be in red and white next season. Apparently you don't follow the news either. Calgary traded for Brian Elliot. They have a goalie, they don't want Howard. He will also be in a Winged Wheel next season. Abdelkader and Helm on the 4th line? Helm isn't signing a $3M deal to play on a wing on the fourth line. So everything you did here is for nothing.

Lucic looking for a long-term deal. Ericsson for 3.5 million only. They need defensemen. I dont want Miller on the team. Im aware of the signing just dont care. That's the whole point in being GM here-you build your own team.
Calgary only has Elliot who gets less than $2 mil. Every team needs at least 2 solid goalies, look what happened in Montreal. This team's depth is ridiculous. They have a lot of potential. It's not about which line you play with but who your linemates will be. Lines need chemistry to succeed. Pulkinnen needs Zetterberg's passing and play making to raise his scoring capabilities. jurco also with sheehan and Tatar for similar reasons. That's why I put Helm and Abdelkader on the 4th line. Im paying Helm $3M because he is very good defensively.
