The situation is obvious to me. Need to trade for Markstrom. He will be happy on a team with so many Swedes. In two to three years then Cossa and Augustine move into the picture. Lyons would be an excellent 1 b. But goaltending needs to improve.
Hopefully next year the Red Wings Team now will look totaly different this season with mind blowing signings and mind blowing letting guys walk. I hate to see.
U wont get Markstom for less than a 1st rounder, and you dont do that. I agree goaltending was horrible this year, but you dont sacrifice valuable assets to compete for a playoff spot, you just dont. Now, if its a goaltender who is going to be around for 4-6 years, then u can.
Beyond Bergers,Johanson, and Edvinson, the first two dont have waiver exempt, i dont see any young prospects making the team. Yzerman is gonna have to prove his comment about younger players forcing themselves on the roster. After not bringing Edvinson up for most of the season, he has to prove it. He also has to prove he isnt going to do the Holland approach and fill the roster up with veteran players. We shouldve had some prospects on the team this year, for our teams overall development. To me, it looks like our prospects our over ripening like Holland used to do.
You figure with Edvinson on the defense and Johanson cant be sent down to the AHL without waivers, thats 8 defenseman on the roster for next year. Their would have to be a huge roster change to fit in another d man with a trade or signing, i cant see where they do 8 defenseman on the roster, but i guess it could be done with only 2 goalies on the game day roster. Regardless, it ought to be an interesting offseason for Yzerman and how he puts the roster together and how he fits in under the cap with Lucas and Seider big money contracts coming in.
You guys cool with trading Walman?
