What if we go back to 2022 and sign Dylan Strome instead of Copp? No reason to settle for the lesser brother.

Tsn or something had a rumor of Kane to the Oilers if Yzerman decides to sell
Could we be sellers and buyers or is that a silly dream

Why would the Wings be interested in another mediocre center that doesn't produce much offense, can't win faceoffs, isn't physical and doesn't PK. He's not adding anything over what they already have.
I agree but Strome’s 1/2 pt a game is more than double the offense of what Copp and Comphere combined contribute
You're not very good at math. Compher has 21 points in 49 games (almost half a point a game) and scored 48 in 77 last year
I don't think Strome is much better than Compher and Copp if at all.
I was being sarcastic And taking a shot at copp and comp here who produce jack shit just like Strome

A lot of ink is being used to say that Taresenko should be traded before 3-7-25, and if not bought out this summer. However, the only club he might go to is FLA, and they might not want him even if it is for $2.25M (half salary thru '25-'26 season). I hope he gets traded and does better some where else, he has overstayed his welcome in Detroit. Of course, Tank can say no to all except being waived, I hope it does not come to that.

Jamie Oleksiak could be available and has played the RS. He has 1 more yr at $4.6M
Would he be worth Berggren and a 3rd? I don't know his advanced stats. If the Wings could get him and send Holl down, then maybe they could retain a little on Holl and receive a 6th or 7th for him.

I was hoping the Wings would trade for Oleksiak for a long time. I suggested trading for him before he was dealt to Dallas for a 4th but i think Yzerman is going to want a righty and is probably interested in Byram and/or Ristolainen

Some Red Wing proposal, BUT I DON'T SEE THE HAWKS TAKING A COUPLE SCRUBS

Red Wings acquire:
Tyler Bertuzzi
Alec Martinez ($2 million retained)

Blackhawks acquire:
Tyler Motte
Justin Holl
2025 first-round pick
2026 third-round pick
The proposed deal would be an intriguing one as Detroit would re-acquire Bertuzzi and add a veteran defenseman in Martinez. In return, they would deal a first and third-round pick as well as two depth NHL players.
