On Logan Stanley to the Red Wings: A Defensive Boost?
Another intriguing name coming up in rumor circles is Logan Stanley, a towering defenseman with the Winnipeg Jets whose size and physical play have drawn attention from teams looking to add blue-line depth.
Detroit Red Wings fans, in particular, have discussed Stanley as a potential trade target…pointing to his 6’7″ frame, relatively affordable cap hit, and room for growth as reasons he could help Detroit’s defensive corps.

For second or third pairing depth and a guy who will absolutely knock someone in the face if they deserve it, I approve. Watch the Brady Tkachuk clip…

Wait. This guy is publishing articles about what the fan base wants?
That’s lame

Second pair Stanley with AlJo? putting Benny on the 3rd with ASP?

I could see them interested in Luke Schenn as well.

Cool. get someone SOON!! He’s got some bite to him from the few clips I’ve seen of him. We need help ASAP.

Stanley is not good. He’s barely an upgrade over JBD and Hamonic.
Although the front office is so tight lipped I never believe these rumors anyway.

Yes please!!!

A big bodied dman with snarl? I’d go for it. Probably a conditional 4th and say Tuomisto as a fair return?

I don’t like this move. He’s been terrible up until this year and even with the way he’s playing now I don’t think he’s an upgrade on our left side. Unless he comes super cheap I don’t want us to make this move.

Stanley is not a clear upgrade though he is a big guy, of course

For a mid round pick? Sure, defensive depth, big body, he’s on a heater offensively this year too. Plus he’ll punch a guy in the face and everyone always says we need a bit more sandpaper in this lineup.

6’7 of pure crap

Logan Stanley is awful and no better than Holl or Gustafsson.

36 points in 4 seasons? Injury prone? Hard pass

Gross. Hamonic, Holl, Gustavsson…we don’t need another 7th Dman.

People assume we’re linked to everyone because we have cap space but don’t have real sources from anyone with organization. Better to just see what happens

He’s horrible. The Wings do not need more marginal defensemen. I’ve been worried Yzerman won’t part with assets to add someone of quality
