Back-to-back days of moves. Detroit adds forward David Perron from Ottawa, and the cost is almost nothing: a conditional 2026 fourth-round pick. After giving up a first for Faulk yesterday, this is the bargain-bin balance. Cheap veteran scoring for the stretch run, exactly the kind of low-risk add you make when you've already committed to buying. Two days, two deadline pieces.
A conditional 4th for a vet who can still score. THIS is the kind of deadline value I want to see. Compare it to yesterday's first-round bill and it almost feels like Yzerman was apologizing. Low cost, low risk, depth scoring. No notes.
give Cat a vet running mate and watch the goals pile up. cheap goal-scoring adds are my love language. told you Yzerman knows what he's doing on the forward side.
ok but does he go on the second unit PP. we've been 0 for 5 too many nights. if Perron just stands in the bumper and we still can't enter the zone clean it doesn't matter who's out there.
love a guy who's been on like nine teams showing up for the stretch run. veteran energy, knows where the net is, probably has strong opinions about the bench music. i'm in.
