I saw the signings and go, "They're not perfect but they're not that unrealistic, what's he talking about?!"

... And then I got to the trades.

Side note, **** giving Sean Monahan 5 x $6M.

i like signing monahan but not for that long. youre probably buying out one of petry or holl and youll probs have to give up to move holl. I dont believe steve and lalonde would put kasper and mazur on the 4th line.

Enh, it beats the old "unrealistic Wings ACGM involving the Jackets" standard of poaching Werenski, so you've already come out ahead.

HUGHES will pay you $2M from his personal account to keep Petry

I can't imagine Bill Armstrong waking up on a fine monday morning and thinking hey, why not trade for Justin Holl today!

I don't see the real value in the Hawks picking up Copp, going on age 30, for $5.6M cap hit for the next 3 years and paying for that even if just a 4th round pick? There are simply better ways for the Hawks to use cap space and not give up draft picks even if it's only a 4th.

I don't agree with all the contracts but I don't mind the guys you've targeted in free agency. I think you can give Maatta away but your gonna have to pay a lot more to move guys like Copp and Holl.

Yep. Pretty unrealistic. Maata is the only player among those trades that Stevie won't have to pay to move out. Fabbri, Copp and Holl all cost the Wings something to move. Petry isn't going anywhere unless the Wings buy him our.

Yup, you nailed the unrealistic part.

After being the first team to win 3 Petry trades, let’s win a fourth one and turn him around. Then, we win a fifth one

I'll do manual labor for the Canadiens for the rest of my life for them to take Petry away, even just for a game.

Monahan is a STUD. Great Character, great vision, just a great person to have in the locker room and able to provide you 0.8 pts per game when healthy.

Robby Fabbri = FC at best.

Copp and the Hawks pass, And it's not even close.

Justin Holl will be bought out, He cost mere pennies on the dollar.

Maatta is worth every bit a 4th round pick a 7th is a royal joke.

Petry isn't going anywhere unless Yzerman decides to buy him out.
