It’s been an interesting offseason in Hockeytown thus far. The Detroit Red Wings kept Patrick Kane from exploring NHL Free Agency. But they were relatively quiet until Wednesday evening. Detroit then announced the signing of forward Vladimir Tarasenko to a two-year contract. This was a move more in line with what was expected from the team coming out of the NHL Draft.Detroit traded defenseman Jake Walman to the San Jose Sharks to clear salary cap space. However, once NHL Free Agency arrived, they were relatively reserved. Until the Tarasenko deal, the highest cap hit they dished out was the $2.5 million spent on goaltender Cam Talbot. The 36-year-old puck-stopper signed a two-year contract with Detroit on Monday.
General manager Steve Yzerman has not scheduled time to meet with the media. As a result, it’s safe to assume the Red Wings legend has more moves up his sleeve this summer. With this in mind, here are two potential trade targets for Detroit with NHL Free Agency beginning to thin out.
Dante Fabbro could be a fit
