Sujet: This team will be the death of me
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Flyerforlife</b></div><div>curious to get a wild's fan perspective on this. I assumed that they would leave suter unprotected cause I can't imagine that seattle would take that contract. Am I wrong?</div></div>

Hopefully Guerin could get both Parise and Suter to waive their NMCs for expansion purposes. I think if that happens, Seattle takes Soucy assuming they go the 7-3-1 route and protect all the forwards you'd expect. Guerin could hopefully extend Cole on a cheaper deal and then roll some combo of Suter/Spurgeon, Brodin/Addison, Sanheim/Cole next year which is still a solid defense. There's also the chance Menell comes back from the KHL next year and that's just more right side depth. I'd probably take the trade above assuming Frost seems like a legit NHL player.

Sujet: Trade the future to get Eichel at the TDL
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Wildwinswhen</b></div><div>Future cap space is definitely a concern, but how much of an overpay is it really? If we aren't going to trade existing NHLers for him, then I think something like this works.

Now, we could fix the cap space problem by going Fiala, Boldy, 1st, 1st. But what does it actually take to be fair here? In my prospects model above maybe we remove Khovanov and the 2022 pick, but still if we're giving up only prospects and picks for an Eichel it's going to hurt.

I haven't seen a design yet that both MN and Buffalo fans thought was fair.</div></div>

Because Buffalo fans seem to think they'll somehow win an Eichel trade. Guessing the massive haul they got for O'Reilly gave them that idea. :tonguewink

The most I'd offer? Blue chip prospect (Rossi or Boldy), B+ prospect (Khovanov, Beckman, or Khusnutdinov), 1st round pick and Rask to help with cap. But honestly I'd just rather not. The Wild are in a great place right now, so if Guerin can navigate th expansion draft and the Parise/Suter landmines they'll be set to compete for awhile. Not much incentive to give up all that for a $10m contract with the flat cap we'll likely see the next few years.

Sujet: Hamilton is it possible
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Saskleaf</b></div><div>Overpay I'd say. Dougie's on an expiring contract. Not realistic. And you don't give up that much for a deadline rental, even if it is Dougie Hamilton. Carolina has no reason to trade him but they'd probably pull the trigger on this trade if I had to guess.</div></div>

The trade notes say must have an extension in place.

Not 100% sure on Mrazek's status because he was (is?) injured, but Carolina has 3 goalies who have all played well so can't see how Andersen helps them. You have a great return going to Carolina if they can't sign Hamilton, but let's be real: the Canes look like a legit Cup contender right now. They'll let Hamilton walk for nothing before they risk shaking up their team when they're playing so well.

Sujet: Hurricanes rejected an Andersen trade in the offseason
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PeterK</b></div><div>That probably wasn't the deal. Im sure there were other assets involved.</div></div>

This. I'm sure the base for salary purposes was Andersen for Hamilton. Toronto would clearly need to add something else to get Carolina interested, but the first hurdle is making the salary work.

Btw this isn't as stupid as people are making it sound. Dubas may have been checking to see if Carolina had any conversations with Hamilton about an extension and if they had any thoughts of moving him because they weren't going to be able to extend Hamilton. It was a long-shot, but Dubas is paid to seek out deals like that to improve the Leafs.

The other aspect is Andersen was paid a $4m bonus and was only owed $1m in salary. Hamilton had $6m in salary due, so maybe Dubas hoped the Canes were looking to shed salary due to the pandemic? *shrug*

Sujet: Max value of Eichel
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Isles777</b></div><div>You’re being an extremist lol

Two packages for the wild that can possibly get Eichel.
Rossi , Addison, beckman, and a 1st

JEE, fiala, beckman , and a 1st.

Kings :

Turcotte, viillardi , madden , and a 1st

NYR

Kakko, chytil , Schneider , and a 1st.</div></div>

Clearly we have different definitions for top assets because I mean it literally; the top assets the team has, not their 2nd and 4th most valueable. For LA that means Byfield. For NYR, that means Laf. Most of the posts involving Eichel on here lately has Buffalo and non-Buffalo fans insisting Minnesota would need to give up multiples of Kaprizov, Rossi, Addison, and multiple 1st round picks because LA and NYR can offer Laf + Kakko or Byfield + Turcotte like those are actually things any of those 3 teams would do.

Sujet: Max value of Eichel
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Isles777</b></div><div>You take is extremely unrealistic - no one will offer multiple top assets? Eichel is a top 10 center in his prime and on most teams would immediately become the most valuable asset. Don’t want to give up one of Rossi or JEE/fiali +. Then Eichel won’t be getting traded to the wild. It’s as simple as that.</div></div>

Notice how I didn't say the Wild but left it general? Teams don't give up all their top assets that they'll need, they just don't. They may give up 1 top asset along with some complimentary prospects and/or picks, but no one is giving Kakko + Laf + Chytil + 2 1st round picks. No one is giving up Byfield + Turcotte + Vilardi + 2 1sts. No one is giving up Rossi + Addison + Boldy + picks.
