Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press answers one email from a reader.

The topic is trading Luke Glendening at the dealine and does any other plyaer have more value.

Is Glendening worth sacrificing for the rebuild? Not unless a team makes Yzerman a "Godfather"-inspired offer — that is, one he can't refuse. Glendening sets a valuable example for young players with how hard he works on and off the ice, and brings intangibles in his general leadership. The Wings are more and more Dylan Larkin’s team, but he can’t carry them alone and Glendening is a pillar in the locker room. He adds a dose of stability, and that’s valuable to a team that is going through as many growing pains as the Wings.
