Sujet: Making Boeser work next year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jnowariak</b></div><div>They’d ask for a 1st and probably wouldn’t take on dead term for less, nor should they. If it was for a single year, maybe they’d take a 2nd and 3rd but not for 2.</div></div>

I also wouldnt be opposed to giving up a 1st for him, he is 25 years old and has proven he can be a 30+ goal scorer, if the wild don't get him I see them backing into the playoffs barely based off how they are playing, which would lead to being a early 20s pick, if they get him, I think they win maybe 1 round this year solidifying the top 6 with a shoot first winger to play with Boldy and actually can play the CORRECT side on the PP instead of having someone with their stick to the boards on the half wall (sorry, this has has been a gripe of mine for years, no elite PP has a lefty on the left boards) which would put them to a mid to late 20s pick this year and a quality player going forward, I think if the ask were to be the next 2 years firsts and some prospects that arent top end, I do it.

Sujet: Is there a way
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BenningTruther</b></div><div>Ya more than likely. hard to move a 6.6mil guy in a flat cap world. Also since his agent was given permission to talk to other teams, boesers play has really picked up. I dont think managment is at the point they were a few months ago when there were reports they would take below market value just to shed the cap. Now that Bo is gone the same need to clear cap isnt there and thats why i think a boeser trade is unlikely until at least the draft. Allvin also said he doesnt want to give up on brock because of his age and scoring pedegree</div></div>

Appreciate the insight - as a Wild fan, and not spending a ton of time reading both sides of trades, all I have been reading is how Hankinson has been working closely with Guerin trying to figure it out, which to me seems as though the asking price would just be increased? But maybe I am taking that out of context. Also - have no idea what "working closely to try and figure something out" means, like is he reaching out to other teams on behalf of the Wild too in order to facilitate a trade for someone like Greenway? Idk, the whole thing is just something I've never seen before.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AndrewPawlack</b></div><div>they took on cap for RoR. What makes you think they're trying to compete lol</div></div>

They have 12M in deadline space, its been widely talked about in MN including by the GM that he doesnt want to burn first round picks or top prospects for rentals this year, but they have stockpiled this cap to continue to build their prospect pool and add more picks. He has zero desire to not compete, and isnt going to be a full on seller, there are 3 players that have even been floated, 1) Greenway who is having a very sub-par year and his $3M has to come off the books next year due to Boldy's contract extension 2) Dumba, who they have their natural replacement for in Brock Faber in the NCAA and is a UFA who they cannot resign at the end of the year 3) Goligoski who has been getting healthy scratched 75% of the year, and is not happy with it.

None of those players effect their ability to compete this year and they have an asset in that cap room, and an owner willing to spend the actual cash to "purchase" picks.
