ppl do not seen to factor in the fact that Detroit is a divisional rival, when was the last time a team that is competing for a cup or trying too trades a 40 goal scorer to a divisional rival in the same situation, most likely never, if DET wants to trade for Cat its going to cost much more than what OTT traded for Cat.

Maybe not cause that's way more than Detroit would pay.

That's okay, Detroit isn't doing that trade anyways.

Not even remotely close, and far too much money.

Ottawa is competing for a cup? In which league?

Detroit passes, our 9th overall pick isn't in play. Best will be the islanders 18th overall pick.

I'd do Berggren + Kubalik

I agree at that price Detroit waits it out and sees what happens.

OHL

You when you realize that he got worse and more expensive than when you paid for him. Plus 2023's draft is just much better.
