Insider Details Trade Return if Red Wings Move Simon Edvinsson

Detroit Red Wings defenseman Simon Edvinsson reportedly still wants to be traded following unresolved extension discussions over the summer. According to insider Pierre LeBrun, Edvinsson and his agent J.P. Barry met with general manager Shawn Horcoff, but the meeting did not yield a resolution. While Edvinsson conveyed a preference for a permanent move, Detroit has not officially decided to trade the blueliner and still hopes to reach a contract agreement.

Should Detroit pursue a permanent trade, LeBrun highlighted recent deals involving Mikhail Sergachev, Noah Dobson, and Bo Byram as benchmarks for a potential return. Detroit faces an approaching deadline, as Edvinsson must sign by December 1 to be eligible to play during the current season.
