Easy no from the Wild. No interest in Rakell or his contract. We can give you Merrill for free though.

As a fan of another team in the Metro, I very sincerely hope Pittsburgh gives that deal to Foegele and puts him on their top line.

I had similar thoughts of the Pens goalie swapping to get Laine. As creative as Dubas can be on trades, I don't think I've ever seen that much salary get moved around in one so a bit doubtful. Plus very much an overpay by the Pens, and Texier would likely be included too as Dubas has been after him for years.
Hard pass on Foegele, if Draisaitl wasn't finding him with passes he was doing cardio most nights for the Oil. At that price I'd rather try to get a sweetner attached to Mikheyev who will probably be just as effective.

there is no way the penguins are doing that CBJ trade.
The whole point of moving Jarry is to open up cap space for longer term and let Blom play.
They aren't taking a guy like Elvis back.

While I do think they should move Rakell out, they aren't going to retain almost 2 mil on him for 4 years. So that's out too.
They will most likely have to allow him to bounce back.
I hope they pump his numbers this season when they realize things aren't going well. Let him hit 60 points again, and then he'll be much easier to move.

That Foegele contract is abysmal.
