Khan suggested the Wings make a serious pitch for St. Louis Blues center Robert Thomas or Vancouver Canucks center Elias Pettersson. He also mentioned Auston Matthews, if he becomes available, but doubted the Toronto Maple Leafs would trade him to an Atlantic Division rival.

Like Allen, Khan believes the Red Wings must upgrade their bottom six forwards. He also felt they should find a reliable second-line center, noting the position has been a concern for years.
