Getting Hughes, even at the cost of Edvinsson would have been a net positive. Any other D that isn’t a borderline AHL talent would be nice, several were traded and a few more have been thought available.
A legitimate top 6 player would also be a great addition, their 5v5 offense is garbage. Trochek would be huge.
The Wings have a glut of prospects and fringe talent that can be leveraged to better use than a record setting AHL team. We also don’t need another mid to late 1st round pick that won’t play for 3 years.
What do you think would have been better for the wings?

That’s really interesting thanks
