I like lindblom actually. His production is more of a 3rd round pick MAYBE 4th though imo

That’s not getting Girard, at all

With you title FANTASIZE I wasn't sure I wanted to see this but it's better than a lot of the serious offers I've seen for Bertuzzi. I haven't made up my mind but this is a good offer.

Struggling provorov isn’t enough for Bertuzzi with a third. Bertuzzi is a ~ppg player on a terrible team.

If the flyers add their 2023 1st it’s a lot closer.

I think the third needs to be a 1st. Obviously not this years as it’s too high.

Provorov has been really struggling and is overpaid whereas Bertuzzi is severely underpaid.

I was thinking swap the 3rd for a 1st but even then I'm still not sure but the value is good. I'm just not sure I'm ready to trade Bertuzzi.

Yeah. Provorov + an unprotected 2023 first just gets me actually thinking about it.

At this point I’m itching for there to be some winged wheel trades though.

I don't think Provorov is a good fit in Detroit.

He is grossly overpaid and it'll be impossible to extend his contract and very very hard to trade him in his last year with his cap hit. The term isn't so bad but there are other options that makes more sense that doesn't cost us Bertuzzi. We have enough talent on the LD position already, just not ready for the team yet.

We should go after defenders that are cheaper and that still have trade value when our prospects overtake them. Players like Pettersson, Matheson, Schmidt, or even Scandella.

Yzerman wants a high end roster player+Blue chip prospect+1st round pick for Tyler Bertuzzi similar to the Chychrun deal. And this doesn't cut it.
