Trade: DET-PIT

[CasperX22]

Surprised Mike is tearing it down. Thought he was a couple moves away from being right there before the tear down

There's like 4 teams with a chance to win it lol

Mike, Steve, Mik and maybe one or two others like bruyns

and it'll stay that way until some playoff teams make some serious moves forward!

Need the assets to do so.

Agree and there are so many teams trying to tear it down it will come down to who can get really assemble the worst roster IMO but yeah only like 4 teams really have a shot at winning it all for a few years

Some of the playoff teams do have the assets to do so. There are plenty of very productive veterans available for lower prices since everyone is trying to rebuild. They can be added to some of the good cores out there.

Pitt wasn't one of them tho
Was a smart move IMO

[Matthew]

Pitts owned the Carolina 1st. Bet that could have brought in a nice haul. And he all ready won his division.

[Arian The Insider]

Yep, I think Mike was a few moves away personally. I'll agree to disagree with the rest of you guys that don't. Doesn't matter now anyways.

[Handsome&FairMike]

ya but that value isn't there for Car 1st atm. And after I moved Henrique and Fraser's offer came along, I'll likely have a better chance in 3-4 years once league parody comes around. If I kept hanging on would have delayed my eventual rebuild much longer! Still think I'll be competitive and now have a fun young(er) team to cheer on.

[Matthew]

You had 3 top 20 centres + sedin. 2 of which were 25 and younger. You could have competed next season on then traded Carolina 1st for a big package or kept it and had 3 elite young Cs. Not understanding why a divisional winner who is close to competing wouldn't try to win for a few years and then tear it down if need be.

[Handsome&FairMike]

Things change Matthew. trying to maximize value for players - who knows if Henrique and Trocheck continue last years numbers or improve... and when does Kesler start to be less productive? Did what I thought was right and got the tide rolling and now I'm in overhaul mode for whatever reason.
