Nah thats worse than the other reported offers by quite a bit

just added a small forward in Newhook, Wallstedt and 21 to start the convo

No need for a goalie. Min doesn’t have the assets

Minnesota needs Gus and Montreal doesn’t. The trade doesn’t work for either team

Wrong on both accounts!

Montreal needs Gus too. Have you look our goaltending

yeah min has Wallstedt, 21oa, 1st in 24.
Rossi is off cuz Newhook.

no thanks

Value of the deal aside, I can't see them trading that far up and targeting a winger who won't be here for another three years. I'd see them taking whichever of Smith, Carlsson, Dvorsky are left.

According to The Athletic, their beat writer doesn't see them trading outside of the top 8, but I'd love if we could swing big and get 5OA. Don't think we'd be willing to part with the assets it would take though (probably Boldy). Rossi doesn't have the type of value he used to.

montreal have enough small players in their top 6 as of right now, wrong pieces for the trade imo.

Yeah Montreal isn't dropping no 16 spots in an extremely deep draft. Not even close for the #5 pick.

Montreal would want Boldy

Counter : JEE + Gustavsson + 21th vs 5th

Yeah, no interest in those players. Demands would be Boldy + a 1st, which MIN shouldn't consider.

That's hilarious considering you have about a 20% chance the 5th OA in this draft is more productive by age 21 than Boldy has been.

Wouldn't trade the 21st and JEE for the 5th. Hold onto that lottery ticket pal.

Well, considering that it would be Michkov's rookie year, having comparable production to Boldy would be very impressive. Not saying it makes sense for the Wild to make that trade, just that it's the only price that makes sense for Montreal given their timeline, needs, the assets that Minnesota has.

That one makes me think!

I would need one of the big time centers available to do that.
