Sujet: Baby Steps to Playoffs
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>aedoran</b></div><div>I doubt Dallas gives up a 1st for Hronek even with a 3rd coming back. Plus we have no one to eat up the 22+ minutes a game he plays. I like Lindstrom a lot but his play falling off at the end of the season means he still needs to adjust to the length of the NHL season which I'm confident he will but adding minutes to his game right now isn't going to help. I think too many Detroit fans undervalue Hronek, sure his defensive play needs work but to score regularly in the NHL today you need that 4 player in the rush. Being able to get production from defensemen is more important than ever. Is Hronek the long term answer? Probably not but it's not wise to trade him before we have some one who can step in and at least help eat up those minutes. I do like the Zadorov signing and I think pairing he with Hronek would be beneficial for both of their games.</div></div>

I personally think Hronek had a lot of value but I don’t think he necessarily fits the team defense mold that Yzerman wants to create. There’s some plays I watch him get beat by the attacker and he doesn’t even touch them. Hypothetically if all of these events (or something similar) were to take place would you not see a top four of Seider, Petersson, Edvinsson, and Zadorov (who can play RD) as sufficient? Then have Staal/Walman and Lindstrom playing on the bottom pairing? Just curious what you think.

Sujet: Dream Summer
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>aedoran</b></div><div>If this is your dream I'm a little worried for you. All most all Wings fans would consider this a nightmare. Detroit can't afford to give up that much for one player and no player Eichel included is worth that much. For future reference you just don't see 2 rebuilding teams trading with each other because they are after the same things.</div></div>

As of right now rebuilding teams seem to be the front runner to pick up Eichel already like the Kings and the Rangers. Detroit has had an enormous amount of picks and prospects at their disposal many of which are high end and may be facing a log jam at forward depending on how prospects progress. I think this could give Detroit a true 1-2 punch down the middle for well over a decade. Plus Yzerman definitely can be aggressive if he wants to as he was with Tampa in the past. I'm not saying sell the whole farm for Eichel, I'm saying if the price is right why not go for it especially considering so many older players are coming off the books next year.
