We haven’t had a 40 goal scorer since 2009 Marian Hossa.
In my opinion, we need to get him. Not sure what it would take, but if we have the possibility of getting DeBrincat then we have to get him.
Our team does not have a pure goal scorer. Zadina has not lived up to expectations. Getting DeBrincat fills that vacancy.

I’d love 9&2

There are at least 4 intriguing options on that list imo.

Seems like a lot of people aren’t realizing that Debrincat’s « down year » with 27 goals would have been second most on this team. No, he alone won’t make us good, but that shouldn’t be expected.

You have some guts to say that in this sub. The love for Debrincat is strong lol.

I think this trade deadline will be boring AF.

Garland seemed like he had some good chemistry with Mazur for a few games during the WC. At the right price I would like him on the wings. He’s 27 years old and plays hard for his size. A line with Garland Kasper and Mazur (assuming he makes the team) could be miserable to play against.

I wouldn’t mind helly and husso

Only DeBrincat really seems like a possible need, and even then I’m not desperate for us to get him.

Would take all of them but Hart or Karlsson. We need more talent on this team, not just okay role players.

Name the last time a 2 time 40 goal scorer was on the trading block younger than 25 years old. DeBrincat is a Farmington Hills native, who would like to play for the wings (Told me himself) and he’s an all around good dude, I seriously think he’s worth 17th overall, 42nd overall and a mid tier prospect

Give me Hart and Cat. Hart gives us a young goalie who’d be a slight reclamation project but would give us a great tandem in Hart and Husso.
Cat…doesn’t need to be said because it’s been all over this sun hundreds of times. Great winger, gives us that sorely needed high scoring offense we’ve been lacking for so long

I know I’m gonna get some hate for this, but I would love Erik Karlsson. I feel like it would be fantastic for our young d-core to have a guy like that to learn from for a few years. And, adding on the obligatory « cap is going up so the contract isnt so bad….. »

I’ll never understand the current Red Wings fan base obsession with hoarding prospect. I almost feel like the fanbase of today would’ve despised Scotty Bowman and Jimmy Devellano for trading such game changing prospects like Keith Primeau and Steve Chaisson for old established successful vets like Brendan Shanahan and Mike Vernon. Any one of the guys improves the team and half are even an upgrade over Larkin. Gotta swing for the fences at some point, we can’t keep fawning over our prospects who put up 30 points a year and call it a great season.

ADB is they plug and play 30 goal scorer next to Larkin for the next 8 year
Nick Schmaltz solves 2C and is cost controlled
Garland would be probably our 2nd best winger next year and would be had for nothing, Vancouver is over the cap next year and has to include assets or taken nothing for a solid player
I’d be happy with any of them

Debrincat, dubois and gudas and this team is a contender.

DeBrincat is what this team is missing badly.

If PLD wasn’t such a pill he’d be a great add.
