Transaction-ish?
More gutting of detroit's staff. Mark Leach (amateur scout) and Joe McDonnell (director of amateur scouting) leave for Dallas. Same roles.

At least they didn't get hakan. Both have been with the wings for 10+ years.

The History of the Decline and Fall of the Detroit Red Wings Empire

Hakan is best friends with Nill so it may happen when Hakan's contract is up.

Holland has said he expects replacements to start next week. The man knows how to staff, and it sounds like he has someone in mind already.




It's always possible. But you know Detroit is gonna throw gobs of cash at him and he likes to work for the wings.
/e when bowman was gonna join Toronto he offered to double hakan's salary and hakan said no. It will be interesting if Dallas gets him.

im just wondering how much a prime lindros would make in todays NHL...

if clarkson makes 5.25 for being a tough guy that can score, bickel 4/4 for a playoff run... lindros would be like 9-10? its ridicilous how much people pay for toughness

Lindros had a 2 year, $16M deal at one point. And he was far far FAR more than a tough guy...

yeah, but i mean in todays NHL with salary cap and stuff

he's by far the most unique player in league history

Scoring 90 goals in a season is pretty good

they'd never let him play in today's nhl because of concussions mate

i said prime lindros, around his hart year
