Sujet: New Miller trade idea to take a step back this season
Interesting. I like the conditional pick. I do think it feels light for the Canucks but as you mentioned teams get desperate at the deadline and it wouldn't shock me if Dumba returned a 1st. Getting a 1st, 2nd that could be a 1st, and Addison for a rental is a pretty stellar return.

I know Canucks fans want a more defensive D than Dumba, but he played more minutes than Spurgeon for us and was overall actually fine in his own zone. He definitely is prone to dumb mistakes, but he has good moments as well and I think for the most part the good outweighs the bad. I think he's a solid #3-4 on most teams.

Here's his player card from The Athletic this season. He actually hasn't been a huge offensive generator since he tore his pec a few seasons ago which goes against the narrative that he's an offensive defenseman, but he does still have a very powerful slapper.

Sujet: Chevy lights one up
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>tsyls</b></div><div>I pretty much looked at it as Minnesota is guaranteed two years of Dubois at a reasonable cost. Sure he may be gone after that, but Minnesota has cap issues <strong>and are built to win now</strong> and in the future. Trading a few pieces that don’t make a huge impact to the roster to make a deep run during some hard years would be great.

But again, I fully understand any team not wanting to deal with the Dubois headache. I tried to come up with some different ideas and not the prototypical PLD to MTL BS.</div></div>

I actually disagree there even though Guerin publicly says he wants to remain competitive this season. I think our true window is 2-3 years from now when Rossi, Boldy, Lambos, Wallstedt, and Faber are all entering their primes while Kaprizov, Brodin, and Ek are still under contract and in their primes.

The Wild outperformed expectations dramatically last year. Nobody thought we'd be as good as we were. I just don't think it's realistic to expect us to perform similarly when we lost Fiala and Talbot as well as the fact Hartman, Gaudreau, Foligno, and Zuccarello all had career years. Call me pessimistic but I'd be really surprised if those guys don't regress next season. I see us as a wild card team that won't be able to beat Colorado in a playoff series, even with someone like Dubois.

Sujet: How much worse than last year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Wildnochance</b></div><div>But even reporters like Friedman or whatever his name is, has stated at deadlines including last year people continue to basically laugh at ottowa behind their back for making that deal. I think if jt was worth that, some teams would have. We all also know Guerin's hesitation to pay 1st rounder or prospects for rentals. No thanks to paying 1st round picks or prospects for rentals. 2nd round pick, yes</div></div>

I'm not talking about Ottawa, I'm talking about the trade that sent Duchene to Columbus. At the time, Duchene had 1 year remaining on a $6M deal, was fresh off a 70 point season in 73 games, and was moved for a 1st, Davidsson, Abramov, and a coniditonal first upon Duchene re-signing (no longer allowed). At the time, that's a pretty close price to this package for a worse player. And I think if you asked Jarmo, he'd do that deal again. Duchene was great for them in the playoffs.

Sujet: Dumba and Capt Soo for Gophers TDL
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>drmantalban</b></div><div>I know, I've had the same thoughts. I can't find anything that really enthuses either team, but there's probably a lukewarm package that works for both parties. Like you said, Dumba with retention for Kerfoot + futures piece is a pretty conceivable framework.

I have a hunch that Guerin and Dubas have had a few things they've kicked tires on - Dumba, probably Talbot. They seem open to business if there's a fit.</div></div>

They don't happen often, but maybe there's a 3-way trade to be made here where Sandin goes to a 3rd team, Toronto gets Dumba and some of the Sandin return, and the Wild get part of the Sandin return? Anaheim or the Kings could be a pretty good candidate for that 3rd team, they both need defenseman. I'm don't think the Kings have a ton of space though.

Spitballing here: does a swap involving Sandin to the Kings, Vilardi to the Wild, and Dumba and another asset to the Leafs make sense?

Sujet: Dumba and Capt Soo for Gophers TDL
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>drmantalban</b></div><div>Yeah I can't imagine Knies is available for anything less than a very high end piece.

Just had the idea because we know Dubas has tried to trade for Dumba in the past and he loves his Soo players.</div></div>

I've been sitting on a post for 4-5 days now for a Dumba to Toronto trade but I can't really figure out a good package for a deal. I wouldn't mind adding Kerfoot as one of the pieces, but other than that there's just not much I think Toronto would be willing to part with that's worth it for us. I like Sandin but we'd be adding if he were a piece and we already have a ton of LD in our system. They don't own a 2nd this year but Dumba with retention for Kerfoot and a 2nd doesn't seem too far off.
