The Detroit Red Wings could look to bolster its blue line ahead of the March 7 trade deadline.
The website PuckPedia’s PuckGM tool lets users create their own trades. One user proposed a deal that would see the Red Wings acquiring Seth Jones from the Chicago Blackhawks.
The proposed deal would be a blockbuster as Detroit would acquire Jones, with no salary retained, for two NHL players and a draft pick.
Jones is in the third year of his eight-year $76 million deal. The star defenseman would play on Detroit’s top-pairing or second-pairing and bolster the blue line. He would add some offense to the blue line. Jones has skated in 38 games recording 6 goals and 20 assists for 26 points. Jones is a five-time NHL All-Star.
Chicago, meanwhile, would get off of Jones’ long-term deal which would be a key part of the deal. The Blackhawks would take on Holl’s contract who’s in the second year of his three-year $10.2 million deal. Holl has struggled to be an NHL player since signing with Detroit.
