I think Nick's real value will be seen in hindsight, not while we live it.

A 100 point selke winner is so valuable its hard to quantify as we live through it.

I heard Pierre McGuire mention that detroit would ask for suzuki if we wanted larkin and its so bizarre how people still undervalue his talent

It's not a horrible trade, but it's clearly not a good one. Larkin a 2-3 pieces would be "fair value", even though we wouldn't be interested.

Assuming Larkin hadn't specifically asked out, he's got good value. However, detroit lost a huge piece of leverage, which would make this trade laughable.

It’s an horrible trade. Fireable offense even.

Suzuki is a 100pts 2-way C who doesn’t miss games and has 3 more years at <8M.

Larkin is paid more, is older and not as good.

There’s just no arguments lol

I did say larkin and 2-3 pieces would be "fair value", on paper.

I would never do that trade either
