Orlov has had an almost Norris level year defensively, and Lindell... Meh, decent number 4 guy, also both Trouba and Faulk are overrated and bad comps for a Brodin trade as they are both more offensively minded d men</div></div>

Alright then, I'll go closer to home in saying Edler is the right comparable. (Edler made the fantasy list for a good bit last year and all of this year). If Vancouver was unable to sign Edler last year and was offered this trade, As a canucks fan I'd take it.

It's always hard to evaluate defensemen. I don't see anyone throwing a king's ransom at Brodin, but neither will the wild give him off for nothing. Hard to find that sweet spot. Time will tell.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AFOX10900</b></div><div>One of the best is a stretch, and I said LHD, depends on what your definition of one of the best is, I'd put him in the same tier as a guy like Lindholm in ANA tho</div></div>

These might be fantasy ratings and aren't entirely useful in judging how good a defenseman is, but Brodin doesn't appear on this top 50 list.

<a href="https://www.nhl.com/news/nhl-fantasy-hockey-top-50-defenseman-rankings-2019-20/c-282830728?tid=277729150" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">https://www.nhl.com/news/nhl-fantasy-hockey-top-50-defenseman-rankings-2019-20/c-282830728?tid=277729150</a>

I would say he is a top 50 defenseman in the league, but in the late range of it. Kinda that Esa Lindell / Orlov territory. Valuable, yes, but nothing to spend a mini fortune on. This is essentially the same deal that NYR got for Trouba. Fleury this year is similar to what Pionk was last year. Basing it off this deal (yes i know there's other circumstances here)... and the Faulk deal, I find it hard to see much more going back to MIN (again, I'd add similar to what i mentioned in the previous post)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TanSor</b></div><div>Would TVR make more sense for the Wild to take over Edmundson? He doesn't have quite as high of a cap hit, but it's close. Stalock has nearly identical numbers to Mrazek this year but costs 1/3rd of the cap space so that's why I felt the swap made some sense as Carolina could then take on Dumba or Brodin's cap hit. If someone like McGinn or Martinook makes more sense then I can edit the trade to use one of those two and TVR instead, as Mrazek and Edmundson were meant to be taken purely for cap relief from Carolina.</div></div>

Yup i get the intentions. Edmundson isn't the target. I keep editing my posts as i think of things... I added to my last post that TVR makes more sense. Besides, Dumba is a RHD anyway.

TVR and Martinook would probably be the guys going back.

As for Mrazek... I mean it's possible, but he was quite good last playoffs so I don't see CAR giving him and his potential to do well in the playoffs again up.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TanSor</b></div><div>Robbery? Are Edmundson and Mrazek really that good? The idea was that these two are cap dumps, but if that's not the case I'd certainly be willing to take worse players</div></div>

I edited my post after. I meant to say that it doesn't make sense for them.

Edmundson is having an improved year. A #4/5 guy. Has decent value for sure, but if MIN is trading for defensemen, they are keeping their defense depth while going through these injuries.

Mrazek is having a down year, but again he is a stopgap and performed nicely last playoffs. They can't rely on only Reimer and certainly don't want to have the tandem of Reimer and Stalock.


I stand corrected, it's not a robbery. But it does rob Carolina's defensive depth. McGinn, Martinook or TVR would be the guys coming back if Necas is the target.
