The proposed trade involving Nikolaj Ehlers is intriguing. It would bolster their scoring depth if the Red Wings were to acquire Ehlers.

Ehlers is a dynamic forward who could significantly impact their second line, potentially pushing someone like Vladimir Tarasenko to the third line and adding more depth to their offense.
Red Wings get:
Nikolaj Ehlers
Jets receive:
Jonatan Berggren
Dmitri Buchelnikov
2025 first-round pick
2026 second-round pick
Winnipeg's deal also seems sensible. They'd get a mix of immediate and future assets with Jonatan Berggren, Dmitri Buchelnikov, and a few draft picks. Berggren and Buchelnikov have potential, and the draft picks could help with their rebuilding efforts.
It's also noteworthy that Ehlers has expressed a desire for a change of scenery, which might make this trade more likely if the Jets are looking to move him. Given the Red Wings' focus on improving their offense this offseason, acquiring Ehlers could be a smart move to strengthen their playoff chances.
