For fun

1) Will GM has made it clear he's not doing a 3 years deal with kaprizov

2) at best nolan's Patrick value is 3rd, or 4th round pick, why are you giving one of Wild's top c prospect, and 3rd round pick?


3) With all due respect, wild have zero needs for Phil Kessel, his contract, and his cap hold. Keeping Parise is better

So with all due respect,,every proposal is bad for wild, and from that perspective would be a no

First point I hope he can get more than 3 years. This contract is practically a worse case scenario.

Second point no argument.

Third point I have to disagree. Kessel only having one year left, can still score, and brings another right hand shot to a lineup (more importantly PP) that could use more. Just for the fact that we get out of 3 years of Parise's cap hit is a win in my book. However in Russo's article on the Athletic today he did come out and say we would still be on the hook for recapture penalties even with a buy out so maybe Parise will stay.

From the 3rd point, my perspective is wild have like a zillion Wingers, and by trading for Kessel, you are preventing Matt boldy from having any chance at playing unless it's injury.

Kessel has already declined a trade to Minnesota once. I don't think he has changed his mind.

I will agree with that. Boldy should make the team out of camp with how he has been playing in college/AHL.
