Aside from the fact i don't think Mackinnon will move and that we will probably use the 9th overall on a defender, i really like this.

I like to think that you're giving Tampa enough for Drouin but I don't think you are. Plus both teams are in the same division so the price might be a little larger than other teams. Regardless, what an awesome team! All trades seem like real possibilities. Three lines of excellent scoring and a grind line. Absolutely love it. This would be an amazing way to start at LCA. I've honestly thought that a complete rebuild was necessary but a clean out like this could work just as well if not better. Love it. Just love it. I rarely see optimistic and realistic Wings GM teams. 5 stars for making my day.

You both must have fallen off your rockers if you think Colorado or Tampa even spend more than a blink of an eye on those trades

+1, absolutely agree. Even the ANA trade is unreasonable. Rated 5 for outcome, but 1 for approach. Overall, can't rate this higher than 1 because it's completely unrealistic.

Since Drouin just got traded to the Canadiens (also a divisional team) for Segachev and a conditional pick, I think Sproul, a 2nd and a 5th would have been pretty enticing to Tampa. I think the trade with Anaheim could have included more, but it does address a significant need for both teams: the Ducks need a scorer and the Wings obviously need a defenseman. Anaheim is going to have issues on D with the expansion draft so I think a trade like this could be enough for them to trade Vatanen instead of possibly losing him or some other good defenseman for nothing.
