Both teams defs say no however I would do samorukov a 2nd and gagner for AA and a 5th

Why even bother adding Gagner and Manning they are both UFAs and won't sign in Detroit.



I'd more than likely take this trade. Here Gagner is added as a cap dump because Samorukov is a player Detroit could use.

Yeah I do like this trade. I haven't said about very many AA trades.

To make the cap work for the rest of this season and of course they won't resign with Detroit because they won't be offered contracts because they both suck and their NHL careers are over

Samorukov is a piece I like but not as a main piece for AA. 1st + samukorov is what it would take. Have you seen the deadline prices this year? You're not getting a 25 year old RFA coming off a 30 goal season for a 2nd and a maybe bottom pair D. Granted AA has not been as good this year but people really just don't understand how bad the team around him is. Put AA on a competent team for the entire season and his production looks far different

Ok but I don't see Colorado making that trade and I'd much rather see AA in the West if he isn't on Detroit.
