Detroit's LW is Bertuzzi and Vrána on the top two lines, he is a 3rd LW on the Wings, for the price you asking maybe, but why?

Detroits LW core isn't that strong, Wrong Bertuzzi and Vrana are country miles better than Kubalik would be our 3rd line LW right now due to Robby Fabbri being out with a torn ACL in his right knee.

Devils don’t touch that.

Rangers say NO THANKS and have a nice day.

This team would have no problem finishing 32nd but I doubt some of the moves proposed.

Seems like a lot of thought went into them so top effort for that.

True forgot about Fabbri and I also thought he was a center. It doesn’t make sense know with Veleno also at 3C. To be honest it’s just Kubalik for a 3rd. Any team that wants him

Wouldn’t be so sure pal. You’re looking too much into potential. A scratched player in favour of a guy like Strome playing on one leg and a Kravtsov that the Rangers didn’t even use last year. Maybe change the 2nd into a later pick but don’t think that the Rangers wouldn’t even look at the trade offer.

Yeah I agree the least probable trade amongst all my trades. Do you think they are still willing to spend another 2/3 years trying to build with their youth?

I don’t think they are as far away as many think. Last year they improved in all areas but a total collapse in goal. Dressed 8 goalies last year. Even had to sign EBUG for a game since they had run out of guys.

Most of our holes can be filled internally through our pipeline. So I much prefer the conservative approach.

Rangers don't consider it for even a second, pal. Not for a 1 year rental of Kane or any player.

Then I really hope you extend Andrew Copp knowing that the RFA’s are coming. A first, second, a pick and a player for a 3 months rental ? That wouldn’t be fun to watch “not for a rental or any player”.

I'd do that if I was in Chevys chair, would want to find another team to take a quarter of the rest of.Toews cap hit, he'd be a great 2/3C to have at $2.625M, that is if the plan is to actually try and win and if Toews would waive obviously.

It's nice you're so concerned about the Rangers. I think Drury will take care of it, so don't worry yourself.

When that trade went down I really thought NYR had no shot at doing damage in playoffs…as it turned out- they did….and for it guys like Chytl, LaF, and Kakko got an education well worth “trading down” by giving up the 1st rather than the 2nd.

At this point not sure where it goes with Copp- they may be victims of the small sample of success…but whatever happens there- moving Kakko would be a big mistake unless a C with top line potential is part of what’s coming back. I wouldn’t read too far into the Game 6 scratch. Moving him to bring back a 1 year rental would be a terrible mistake.
