To Minnesota
Round 4 - 2018  (from *) pick #107 overall

To Detroit
Slater Koekkoek, $2.7m (2017-2020)


Detroit was able to clear some cap space by dealing Patches to NJ, this allowed me to add to my thin blue line. Thanks for the easy talks Minnesota, good luck!

To Anaheim
LW - Roope Hintz (2015: 2/49 - 0 Games)

To Detroit
Round 2 - 2018

The Wings and Ducks are going to swap whole teams, 1 piece at a time. This is round 2 of 50...

Practically the reverse of the last trade, Detroit trades to get younger. I only have so many spots on my roster, with Roope knocking on the door, he's better off going some place where he would get ice time.

Thanks again Ducks!

SDP Round 1 - 2018  (from *)

To Detroit
Jeff Carter, $8.0m (2017-2022)

Detroit actually wants to add more Supp picks, so this trade is a tad away from my current plans/strategy, but scorers like Carter don't grow on trees. Even at 33, he still puts up the points and I don't expect that to stop for another couple of years. Maybe picking up a guy like Carter will make it easier to listen some of the initial offers that I've gotten for Pacioretty and make it so I actually trade him this offseason

Thanks for the deal Colorado
