no because they have cheaper options coming up from GR. they need to make a move for a big right handed shot on the back end though. Ouellete is already ready. They need to find a taker for Kindl. Sproul, Jensen, Backman, Marchenko are coming soon too.
Theres a lot of moving parts back there and Kindl is clogging it all up.

Ouellette, Sproul, Jensen, Backman, Marchenko... There will only be 2 spots on the blue line for them... 3 tops.
Quincey/Kindl will be replaced for sure. I have a hard time believing Ericsson will be gone. He's slowly (very slowly) turning into a good defenseman that is more than capable of holding his own, especially on the PK. I think there's trade value in Ericsson but I don't see the Wings parting with him.
I honestly don't care which of the 5 we need to trade to get a top 4 veteran RH dman.
A future of Kronwall, DeKeyser, Ericsson, Smith, and any of the 5 prospects gets me excited. Add in a veteran RH shot that can man the PP and log top 4 minutes and I'm over the moon.
