Keep Elmer. 6'8 center with silky mits? Cmon

Detroit 100% passes, We're by far giving up the 3 best players in the whole deal.

Abysmal trade for Detroit. Gross.

Kylington is the most valuable player in this trade, as he's on an upswing with his play, whereas Kubalik's play has declined the last couple years
Ruzicka has performed well in the NHL and therefore should be valued greater than Veleno now, since he has not.
I might be undervaluing Elmer, but he hasn't done anything in NHL Regular Season play yet, so it's hard to say. CGY has a similar guy in Radim Zohorna, so I'd take Rasmussen instead if you wanted to hold on to Elmer, considering Ruzicka & Kylington > Veleno & Kubalik

Wow what a magnificent, steaming pile of homerism. I wouldn't give you Soderblom straight up for that package.

HaHa, okay whatever, keep your guys = Former 7th Rounder Kubalik was dumped by CHI for nothing and signed for free and is currently not even slotted in your Top-9, Top Prospect Joe Veleno is yet a Healthy Scratch once again and just can't seem to make the Roster on one of the Worst Teams in the NHL and other than a couple pre-season games, your 6th Rounder Elmer has ZERO North American Hockey Experience, but individually they're all much better than CGY's players. Yeah okay, so who's the homers here!?! You guys are ridiculously funny, thanks for the chuckle

Lol come on man, Kylington is by far the sole best player in the deal

I would say Veleno has a higher ceiling than Ruzicka and has looked pretty good this preseason, that said he hasn't done much in the nhl.
Kubalik is an interesting case, former 30 goal scorer who didn't do that well on a bad team. He didn't have anyone decent to play with and I think the losing mentality wasn't good for anyone there. That said his value is pretty low right now.
Soderblom is an enigma, he has high potential and is massive but still needs alot of work. In a trade situation I would put his value pretty high.
I think personally there is more value going to Calgary. Kylington would be nice but not really a need. I personally would be more interested in Andersson to replace Hronek.

LOL Yeah sure he is, The homerism for Kylington is running mighty deep.

If they're all so garbage and or unproven, why do you want them? And why would you trade "the better players" away?

Kubalik for Kylington seems about fair, and MAYBE Ruzicka for Veleno (but probably a no on this one). 4th Calgary Round for Elmer. That suggestion is borderline a troll suggestion.. At this point in his development, I don't think you'd get Elmer for anything you'd feel comfortable trading away. Not even sure why you would aim for a young unproven player at this point in your cup run anyway. I'd imagine you'd be looking for a proven solid right winger.

Homerism? You just called an unproven prospect, a bust, and a recent unqualified player better than a top 4 defensman. Get real

You guys outright waived Kylington not even 2 years ago and ONE decent year doesn't prove anything. There are obvious concerns with his game and he isn't even with the team right now due to personal matters. Furthermore, he is not a need for the Wings AT ALL. We have easily the best LHD pipeline in the NHL by a long shot.

It's not even about value, or "whose better", it's just an absolutely ABYSMAL fit for Detroit in position, or need, whereas Veleno and Soderblom are VERY much worth the "gamble", as they are both positions of need (Soderblom alone is such a unicorn he's damn near untouchable).

If you guys love Kylington so much, keep him. We don't want him.

Lol are you actually bringing up waivers from 2 years ago? Clearly he's proven that was a mistake by both the Flames GM and every other GM in the league for not claiming him.

How does personal matters have anything to do with his play?

Im not arguing if Detroit needs him, that os completely irrelevant to what I responded to

I don't disagree with Detroit wanting to keep Soderblom, they should keep him.
