Old school Fiala comps

Seems like a pretty crazy couple of guys to comp to, no? Mogilny had a 76 goals season under his belt, and as you said, JR had 3 100+ pt seasons prior to being traded. Fiala's best offensive season was this year, which was his first point per game year.

That being said, my first thought was the Kessel to the Leafs trade, which is f*ckin' madness anyway

It is, he's specifically trolling Wild fans because of the ongoing debate about Fiala and what he should bring back if moved.

It's starting to feel like he's decided to go the petty route.

The trades aren't meant to be realistic. They're meant to insite other fanbases because Wild fans don't want to be lowballed or other teams scraps for Fiala because his comps don't work or apply to the situation at hand.

Molgilny was 22nd in scoring previously. Team had financial strain.
Roenick was also a contract that couldn't be signed.

Kessel was a lot younger and had less control in process.

Was just trying some fun comps for young star players that are unable to re-sign with current clubs.

Lmao hawks decline so dam fast. Fiala isn't worth that but even if he was, a rebuilding team isn't giving up a first that has a pretty good chance at being Bedard.

Relax...it is just some fun historical comparables.
As I said in intro, until I see better ones, the best comps will remain to be Reinhart and Buchnevich.

I picked Dallas and Chicago since they have players who fit the packages from the 1990s.
Wyatt is Peca, Harley is Wilson, Strome is Zhamnov, Dach is Mills.

(also, telling that Wild fans hate it as much as Chicago & Dallas fans)

Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love it and eat this stuff up

When someone justifies their position using some sort of comparable instead of "But he's guddddd!", it's so much easier to have a solid conversation about it.

Curious as to what you mean by Kessel having less control in the process? He was an RFA as well, and I *feel* like he had arbitration rights? To me, the big snag on a Fiala deal is likely the fact that Minny has cap issues already, though that could be solved by simply moving Dumba (Which also might not be the right direction...).

Kessel was coming off his ELC so no arb rights. Fiala could be 1-year from UFA, either by QO or via arbitration.

It was a trade for 2 x 1sts and a 2nd. My recollection is that the only successful recent offer sheets have been Penner and CottonCandy.

If you're looking for fun...read that offersheet insanity from the early 90's with Shanny and Stevens. I forgot all about it and got a great laugh out of it.
