Are the Wings sending a message to Ryan Suter and or Justin Schultz (Wisconsin is near by) that there is room on board?
The retirement of Lidstrom this summer further opens roster spots on the Detroit defense.
Naw, remember reading somewhere he wanted to play for a Cali team a few weeks ago. Just Detroit trying to get something for his rights before July 1.

Suter in Detroit would be ridiculous.

Refs let one go for the Kings and nail the Devils and ruin a good playoffs.

According to this site HF the Kings have the #5 best prospect pool and are about to win the Stanley Cup

# 5 - Los Angeles Kings
Strengths: The Kings may have the best goaltending depth of any team in the NHL. Jonathan Bernier has shown signs he can be an elite NHL starting goaltender, while Martin Jones and Christopher Gibson could at least become quality backups down the line. The Kings' are also very deep on their blue line, with a handful of nice puck-moving defenseman, including Slava Voynov, Nicolas Deslauriers, and Thomas Hickey. Derek Forbort and Jake Muzzin are also nice pieces on the back-end. Up front, the Kings have a handful of talented players, including Andrei Loktionov and Tyler Toffoli.
Weaknesses : The loss of Brayden Schenn leaves the Kings without any blue chip offensive pieces. Though there is good depth on left wing, there is limited skill level.
Top 5 Prospects: 1. Jonathan Bernier, G, 2. Andrei Loktionov, C, 3. Slava Voynov, D, 4. Tyler Toffoli, RW, 5. Derek Forbort, D.
Not a bad organization situation to be in best NHL team with a top 5 prospect system.

Now that the playoffs are done, what's the over/under when Burke announces the Luongo trade?

First bulletin board I was on was around 1988.
Leafs have had a few good coaches since their winning years.

Only their top prospect will probably never play much for them.
