The point of this isn't to say that their is a 0% chance that Bertuzzi is going to get traded, but more to explain why many of the AGMs showing a Bertuzzi trade involve pieces that don't interest the Red Wings.

Ilya Mikheyev
Nothing wrong with him would be fine for a contending team with a hole in the middle 6 wing, but Red Wings aren't that when they are we will likely have a deep pool of prospects and be able to get someone for that role relatively easy

Travis Dermott
Would fill our top 4 LD right away, however with how weak our Defense is I don't think we need to give up assets to fill that role and would rather someone with more experience to play opposite of Seider, Yandle was just bought out, we could bring him in to fill that role for nothing.

Alexander Kerfoot
Pretty much the same reason as Dermott, he fills a role that we don't have to pay to fill. Tyler Johnson would be a 2nd line center to start the season and then have Veleno take over that role as the year goes on

Now I signed Bertuzzi to what I think he would sign for and made a trade with the least I think he would cost the Leafs( alternatives included Rodin or Sandin). Other prospects I've seen included in mock trades I feel would get lost in the pipeline especially considering we have 7 picks in the first 3 rounds this year and had 4 in the first 2 rounds last year so it will take a top prospect to get Detroit interested.

So are the Leafs willing to pay this for Bertuzzi?
