As you can see this is an instant non-starter. Even if we take out value, which is just kind of silly, because of the slim margins between players in this years draft a team like Detroit just should not take back. You could make a very good argument for 6 players to suit Detroit very well at pick 6 minimum, so even if 5 of those are gone by pick 6 they easily get a player that suits an organisational need.
Saying Erne + 6OA for 1OA seems like hyperbole, but the difference between 6 and 1 is pretty small, so anything more than that would be detrimental to the rebuild imo.
I think some of this comes from media saying Detroit is past the worst of the rebuild. Thats not true.
I believe next season they will play better hockey, but finish lower in the standings, theyre going from a weak division, to a stronger one, and some of the teams who finished lower will be getting an easier schedule next year. ex. Anaheim won't be playing Colorado and Vegas 9 times each.
