Sujet: Kaprizov

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>I''m always amused at the idiotic arguments the "waive the magic wand" dolts raise -- "ice time is a big factor" like somebody is raring to play 20 minutes for Buffalo instead of 13 minutes for Tampa Bay, and the airily dismissive "so-and-so could easily waive" to be sent somewhere more expensive than Tampa to play on the fourth line. Who needs logic or facts?</div></div>

People mention pride in ice time while ignoring pride in being on a winning team. I agree completely about most players being willing to be a 4th liner on a Cup contender over getting 1st line ice time on a lottery team.

Sujet: Finally got Sorokin

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ryminister_27</b></div><div>the Parise contract is MUCH worse than the Ladd contract. Ladd has 3 years after this one left, Parise has 5 after this year at a higher cap hit. This deal goes back to the highly rumoured one that almost got completed at the deadline. It wasn't Dal Colle as the piece, it was Kieffer Bellows (who isn't much better) but the deal also involved the Wild retaining on Parise and the Islanders retaining on Ladd. Minnesota gets the better end of the deal by far though</div></div>

And Parise won't be playing the entire 5 years he has left. He has enough history with back problems that the league won't question it when he goes on LTIR when his salary drops drastically in a couple years.

And teams trade for things they need all the time. The Wild don't need a bottom 6 injury prone player. They can sign any random available center for a year and get pretty much the same result and keep their draft picks.

That Minnesota trade is horrible for Montreal. Dubnyk is a buyout candidate, no way the Wild get any useful assets out of moving him.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Marino4Norris</b></div><div>The point is that he's closer. Bjugstad really isn't a disappointment when healthy. It's a late round pick for a chance at a middle 6 center, or he just goes on LTIR and insurance covers the contract. Based off the reports that he might play this year, it's a solid gamble for a team with cap space in need of center depth.</div></div>

If he's not a disappointment, you keep him then. This is like a used car salesman trying to sell a lemon. lol

I could see a Pateryn/Bjugstad "let's swap disappointments" trade, but giving up any pick doesn't make sense for a guy who can't seem to stay healthy.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pharrow</b></div><div>I wouldn't burn the year. It's not worth it.</div></div>

It absolutely is. Lemme explain..

If they don't get him signed now, he'll likely stay in Russia another year given the KHL is more likely to start on time. You've now lost him for the 20/21 season. Signing him for the 21/22 season he'll now be old enough that you're only getting him for a 1 year ELC so you're only getting a 1 year ELC anyhow. This move guarantees the Wild will have him here in 20/21 whenever that season begins.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mnwild1790</b></div><div>Yeah after you said that about Chicago I thought about how they would only trade for him if an extension was in place. Which obviously we'd just keep him if that was the case. Off the top of my head, I can't think of any contenders who'd be willing to part with a young 1C for Brodin...things just got more complicated lol.</div></div>

I like the idea <a href="/users/TanSor" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@TanSor</a> came up with with LA having the #2 pick and likely getting a stud center prospect, which is a deal with LA with the 2 main pieces being Brodin going to LA for Vilardi. Not sure what else would need to be involved, but LA could find a way to get 1 more run out of Doughty and Kopitar if they made a couple moves.

Sujet: Offseason

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mnwild1790</b></div><div>Actually that is a very valid point. I never thought about it like that from Chicago's side. I don't see Brodin not wanting to extend in Minnesota and doing an extension in Chicago via sign and trade instead.</div></div>

The main issue is Chicago isn't in a much different place than the Wild right now, so he'd be going from 1 bubble team to another. I could see Brodin saying he'd consider a sign and trade to a contender being more of a conversation starter for the Wild being forced to trade him.

Sujet: Something around Boeser and Dumba

No thanks

Any deal involving the Wild taking Eriksson is an instant deal breaker. Take Rask and Eriksson out and we have a conversation.

Edit: to provide some context, the Wild would still have Eriksson's $6m on the books the year both Fiala and (likely) Kaprizov both need long-term deals so with the cap unlikely to move significantly over the next few seasons, they can't afford to have that cap hit on top of Suter, Parise, Zuccarello, and Spurgeon all still taking up plenty of cap. Rask will be gone after next year, so his cap hit doesn't matter at all.

Sujet: Offseason

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mnwild1790</b></div><div>We agree on Brodin's value on the team. I personally just love watching him play for everything you said above. We disagree, however, on this trade. My ideal scenario is to keep Brodin at all costs...but if you're Guerin and you're unsure if Brodin will sign an extension, doesn't it make sense to trade Brodin? Strome's definitely not my target if I'm trading Brodin, because we need a right shot center over anything else. But if this is the best offer we get for him...doesn't it make sense?</div></div>

If there are absolutely no better offers on the table and Brodin has said he's going to test the waters of free agency, sure. But if he says that, Chicago isn't giving up a young player under team control for years for a rental guy they're no more certain to extend than Minnesota would be so that's sort of a moot point to bring up.

Sujet: Offseason

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mnwild1790</b></div><div>I've seen a lot of Brodin for Strome and a 3rd. That works for me. That 1st rounder is just off limits for me. For explanation, see above.</div></div>

The Wild would deeply regret that trade. Brodin does so much for their defense, which along with Fiala deciding to toggle the other team's defense down to easy mode for a stretch last year, is the only thing duct taping this team together. Guerin has to be 100% sure the return for Brodin is enough of an upgrade that the gain on offense makes up for the drop in defense. If Strome was, why would he be available? Pretty much every Cup contender is at least 3 centers deep.

Sujet: Offseason

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mnwild1790</b></div><div>I honestly can't either. Even when trading for a 1C I can't see it. We're caught in what I call a competitive purgatory. We're close to both a rebuild and a competitive postseason team. It all comes down to how long Parise and Suter can stay competitive at their ages. We need them to be competitive because of how much cap they take up. Say we trade the 11th OA and we regress...then we're just stuck in that purgatory longer. It's going to sound weird but we need build for the future...while also trying to win now....if that makes any sense.</div></div>

It does, which if you don't apply any thought beyond he's 23 and plays center makes Strome the "perfect" target. The problem is he's not a 1C, he's left handed, and much like his brother Ryan, he's been propped up by the quality of his wingers. If either were available cheap enough, sure they're worth rolling the dice on. A 1st round pick is too much for that chance.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Wadejos123</b></div><div>I would love to hear a decent counter offer from a wild fan for strome. It seems to me that wild fans want strome but won't give their 1st or Brodin for him. Hawks won't do it for the pens 1st unless you add more and we for sure won't trade him for a 2nd</div></div>

Guerin has made it clear he's after a right handed center, so I doubt Dylan Strome is on his list of potential trade targets. If he can't trade for one, he'll use his 1st round picks to draft one and just be patient.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>littlejerryseinfeld</b></div><div>they are a mess cap wise in general.

Kane, Couture, Karlsson, Vlasic, Burns, Martin jones cost 46.5 million a year for 4 more years, most of those guys are under contract until they are almost 40 and they have to pay hertl in 2 years.</div></div>

And the odds are pretty good the cap will be flat for the next 2 years. It definitely won't go up enough in 21-22 to matter for teams like SJ.

Can't think of a realistic scenario where Guerin would trade their 1st rounder, period.

Sujet: retool

I wouldn't trade Brodin for Rielly 1 for 1, let alone tossing in a 1st round pick. Brodin is a stud defensively, while Rielly is more of an offensive guy that the Wild absolutely do not need with Dumba and Spurgeon on their blueline already. I think Wild fans on here have agreed, Brodin will get traded for a top 6 center, preferably a rightie. If not, they'll just extend him and continue to have a solid defense.

"BuT wHaT aBoUt SeAtTlE?!1one"

Uhh... trading for Rielly doesn't exactly help that situation.. lol

Sujet: Most realistic scenario next season part 3

Stalock isn't a logical goalie for the Wild to move. Dubnyk was horrible and is a buyout candidate, Stalock was good over a stretch when the Wild needed him and meets the expansion draft exposure requirement, and Kahkonen had a great 2 months in the AHL but otherwise looked average at best in the NHL last year in his cup of coffee with the team. He still might need time to develop and rushing him won't do anyone any good.

People picking apart the trades while I look at $5.9m per year for 5 years for Kahkonen after 5 NHL games as by far the most ridiculous thing on this ACGM. Murray didn't even get that kind of deal after being a key part of winning 2 Cups ffs.

Drop the pick going to Minnesota. Bjugstad for Pateryn 1 for 1 makes a lot of sense for both team's situations.
