Hossa…Holland Working It?

Pierre LeBrun didn’t exactly say as much, but there are hints in his chat today at ESPN...
Ron, Pittsburgh: Zetterberg, Franzen, Hossa. I’ve read that Holland doesn’t view Hossa as the rental he once did, which makes a lot of sense to me. However, I don’t see any way that the Wings can keep Hossa and Zetterberg, even without Franzen in the mix. With their cap situation, I see either Zetterberg/Hossa and Franzen, and I’ll eat my foot if they let Zetterberg go.
SportsNation Pierre LeBrun: (4:55 PM ET ) Ron I can tell you from my talks with Holland that you’re right, he wants to try and keep all three. But it will be tough. Zetterberg is priority No. 1 and they’ve been exchanging coutner-proposals. Should hopefully get done over the next few weeks. Hossa they can’t talk to until January because he signed a one-year deal last summer. They’re talking to Franzen right now. It’ll be tough but one thing Holland can do is trade a few bodies next summer to make room for Hossa.

Welcome to Abel to Yzerman, a Red Wing blog since 1977. No other site on the internet has better-researched, fact-laden and better prepared discussions than A2Y. Re-phrase: we do little research, find facts and stats highly overrated and claim little to no preparation. There are 19 readers of A2Y. No more, no less. All of them, except maybe one, are juvenile in nature. Reminding them of that in the comment section will only encourage them to prove that.
