Quoting: TommyBPickles
One of these players has put up over 70 pts and one hasn't. I dont mind when ppl want to say this kind of offer doesn't interest Detroit because they dont think it meets their needs. Just stop acting like I'm trying to trade for pastrnak. Also beware the regression to the mean and enjoy next season 🙂 also my next offer for mantha will be lower just for fun
Exactly this. Just say Domi doesn't fit Detroits needs. To suggest that they are not even close is ridiculous, the numbers speak for themselves.
One year ago if Detroit fans were to suggest Mantha for Domi straight up habs fans would be like "we aren't trading our #1C who just put up 72 pts for an injury prone player."
So one year later its the opposite?
The truth is these are similarly productive (again look at the numbers) players with totally different skill sets.
Mantha is a 6'5" powerforward/sniper wing who has had injury issues.
Domi is a feisty 5'10" skilled speedy playmaking center.
Totally different skill sets, but very similar value.
