As a Wings fan, I'd take him, but it would have to be at the right price. His age doesn't really fit our timeline. I wouldn't give up a young dman, prospect dman and 2 picks for a guy who in 1 or 2 years could take a huge nose dive effectiveness wise
this is perfect for ottawa it leaves us wide open in the weegar trade i think teams dont wanna pay the asking price but ottawa considering he has a full ntc if he waives to come back home we can get him for a steal.
"Thanks but no, thanks!" MTL
I think that the wings should trade for him and Thomas that deal would shore up two of the biggest holes we have on our team
And yes they can have Marco Casper! overrated! 😂
In praying for all of those teams that they don’t pay the asking price for Faulk, apparently from what I’ve heard. St. Louis wants a 1st+ an A prospect for Faulk which is absurd considering he is almost 34 and is a mid 2RD.
Bruins need to pass that’s a waste of assets
No,no,no,no,no.
Why in the hell would mtl trade for this guy. I don't see it. If it happens i will be very surprised
