  1. I love Quinn Hughes as a player but he’s only under contract through next year. Stevie isn’t going to send a huge trade package unless the trade is made with the understanding Hughes is going to sign an extension. I understand the fans wanting it to get it done no matter the cost. We’ve been patient, but I think we’ll be forced to continue to be patient on this one. NHL movement is arguably the hardest in all sports

  2. No way. It would be a stupid trade for the wings, they need a big D man to clear out the front of the net. They need to trade for a good stout 5 or 6 D man.

    Insiders are saying Hughes is going to play with his brother when his contract is up.

  3. I believe we do damn near whatever to make this trade happen. Hughes will be a top 3 USA defenseman all time when his career is over. He would be a perfect top pair with Seider, we have the money to sign him and we have the prospects to deal for him. If we can get a reasonable trade we should do it. This guy is entering his prime and he is the real deal. Not one of our prospects will be better than him, at best they'd be as good because Quinn is an all timer.

  4. The problem is they need centers, They are going to want Kasper, Danielson AND probably ASP. Centers dont grown on trees either so yes, it would improve the D a lot, but now you have a big giant gaping hole at center now and in the future. Thats way too much and it would hurt the team giving all three away in a major way. Now if were talking one of those players and a tonne of 1st round picks absolutely, but thats not what Vancouver wants. Best is to wait until offseason or let him get to FA if possible. Otherwise you run the risk of giving away all those players and no guarantee hughes extends and it would be all for a rental.

  5. First Hughes is signed until 2027 season… Next he won't re-sign with the Wings if he comes here… He wants to play in New Jersey… Next it will take a prospect or two.. an NHL player and 1 maybe 2 first round draft picks… Just to get him from Vancouver this year…. Hughes isn't coming here and you're going to have to trade a ton for him…

  6. Not likely…. Vancouver is going to want a king's ransom for a player that will be hitting free agency in 2027. Our window will be open by then but our odds will still be thin.

    They'll want ASP and in my opinion ASP is the better player for our team.

  7. This isn’t happening. If Hughes was a culture-impacting type of player, maybe… but he’s not. Don’t get me wrong, he’s insanely talented, but it would require our entire future. It’s not happening. We could also make the playoffs without him this year regardless. The team, while abysmal at times (in net), has shown some serious sparks of greatness, and what holes we do have, Hughes doesn’t plug. Assuming NHL players still end up going to the Olympics, post-break performance is going to dictate what will happen.

  8. Steve Yzerman is always crying about these types of players that don't want to come to Detroit, welp Yzerman you have your chance now to grab one of these elite players! Not only does Yzerman need to make this happen but also to take some pressure off Seider and the 28 minutes a night that he plays! Let's see if Yzerman backs up his talk about what he said this off-season about trying to acquire elite players through trades and that being Detroit's only option by trades because these free agents won't even take his calls to try and sign players like this in free agency.. 😂😅

  9. Kenny as the hockey guy needs to get his facts right. One both of his brothers play for Jersey. Two he cannot resign because he is under contract for another year and a half. You guys are making it out to be if we trade for him, he will resign with the wings when the time comes which is nowhere near certain. A trade would probably take Kasper, ASP, a top prospect and a first. If he signs that's great, if he doesn't the team takes another big step back after losing ASP and Kasper. That's the gamble Stevie will have to make.

  10. Put a package together were Mo is the main piece( he is overrated by Mo fans) and trade for a Superstar. Q. Hughes is a legitimate Superstar. Make the trade or they will always be mediocre. You can't have them both so make the trade!
