Cap dump swap

Couple of immediate thoughts/questions of the top of my head:
1) I think it’s fair to package Rask and Parise together for Bob. It’s only 1 year of Rask for FL and makes the money closer to even, and represents the extra year of Bob vs Parise. Thoughts?
2) Would there be any want to position it where Talbot is the likely pick by SEA? I feel like Soucy might have more trade value than Talbs but maybe I’m just dumb on that.

The idea with Rask to Florida is good and I think fair, but let’s wait until FLA fans arrive and discuss that. I think either Talbot or Soucy are taken. In this case, SJS wants a goalie and thus I gave Soucy to Seattle

Yeah fair point on Soucy/Talbs. Looking at this more, it would be my preference to try and deal Dumba to PHI or NJ for Frost/1st or Boqvist/1st. Eliminates the need for Kampf and gets and extra pick. Money allows you to resign Cole. Suter and Cole can then split mentor duties with Mennell, Addison, Knyzhov and pair with them.

I also was brainstorming around a package for Hertl instead, but I’ll keep that separate for now and let your idea be the discussion.

I'll be the first to admit that I'm not a great hockey goalie mind, but I really don't want 10M tied up in a goalie for the next 5 years.

The Wild have shown that they can improve an average goalie to a good goalie. Since an average goalie goes for 4-5M AAV, we shouldn't be paying more than that for that position.

1) wild are better off keeping Parise
2) Bob sucked before he left for Florida, & has 5-6 years left on his contract for 10 mil a year
3) what is with wanting wild to take on an even worse contract? Bob's contract is one of the worst in the NHL, & was benched in playoffs

4) why are you just giving greenway to shatks?
