It would take a better center, so I guess you can probably do the math from there

He's MN's only center this season... There isn't a trade to be made with TOR with him involved.

Probably untouchable at this point, hes looking like the next Sean Couturier tbh. I dont see the Wild moving on from him

yep, figured he wouldn't be moved. Just love his game and figured it was worth a look

It would take Matthews. Otherwise he's untouchable.

Yes, I realize it's unreasonable and nowhere close. But at this point he will only get moved for a top tier center.

LOL, JEE is good, Ive been very high on him for a while, but he is nowhere near Matthews

I know, which is why I said as much. I am simply saying that he will only be moved if it's as part of a package for a top tier center. I after all said he would only be moved for one, not that it would be one for one.

Leaf fans are going to offer Kerfoot and a 3rd for JEE lol

Which is pretty much why every Wild reply says there isn't a trade to be made.

They could try. I'd appreciate the spite by way of revenge, but they'd get shot down faster than their chances of getting past the 1st round of the playoffs.

So.... 🤷‍♂️

Damn! They actually have chance this year to get past round 1

I think the Wild see Eriksson Ek, Fiala and Kaprizov as the future of the franchise. Add in Boldy and Rossi and (hopefully) one of Firstov or Khusnutdinov and they could have a great top 6 in a season or two. Plus adding Calen Addison to an already great defense and then veterans like Parise and Zuccarello and you can see this is a team on the rise.

I know. It's all just trashtalking. Which is a time honored tradition, and must be upheld.

Which is for the most part typically good natured, but you always get a bad egg here and there.

I know this better than most. As I've had interactions with just about every sports fan from just about most if not all sports franchises in the US, and the Canadian Hockey teams while I worked at a hotel that was about 5 blocks away from the Xcel Energy center in downtown St. Paul from Oct of 2013 to January 2018 overseeing the complimentary breakfast there. Outside of business people and families, sports fans were our main clientele.

Love of hockey trumps all, but trashtalking is a essential interaction of all fanbases.

Yeah leaf fans are the most fun to make fun of, followed by the Rangers

actually my offer was gonna be a 1st + liljegren + 2nd but I would understand if Minnesota wouldn't move him because he's really good at both ends of the ice.

Yeah he's good. Some Leafs fans (not you) offer a bunch of crap for good players

how does engvall for hischier 50% retained sound

Mikayev for Hughes is better

no you can't have Ilya, he's faster than McDavid

Mikayev for Hughes, Wood, Smith, and Nico

throw in holtz and 3 firsts and we consider
