Sujet: Wilds Offseason - My first armchair GM
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ALitteral</b></div><div>Flyers would take that trade. I think most teams would. Stallock seems capable and has a very affordable contract. I'd expect better return if the Wild ship him out.

If you are keen on saving the cap space for Fiala for next season, I would try to weaponize the money. There are plenty of teams looking to unload overpaid players on the last year of their contract... or retain salary and flip for more picks depending on the team's direction.</div></div>

Stalock is very hard to value in a trade. More or less an older rental backup who has ~1 good year to his name. I could see the Wild keeping him and giving another year in the AHL to Khakonen, but Stalock’s value will likely never be higher.

Would I weaponize the money? Yes. Do I think the Wild will? No. They’ll be a playoff bubble team again next year, so I see them playing the fence leaving enough cap to make a deadline deal. In all, my gut says that Guerin will move pieces to eye the future, but Craig Leopold isn’t going to let him blow it up.

Sujet: Just a League Wide Reminder the Ottawa Senators have the best prospect pool
I’m a North Dakota fan, so I’ll give you my 2-cents on a few of these guys.

JBD will have to make some strides. He hasn’t underwhelmed at the college level, but he will have to become more confident in moving the puck to get to the next level.

Tychonick looked kind of lost at times. Couldn’t find a great role at North Dakota and is transferring. Needs to work on his board play. I wouldn’t be mega surprised if he does not make it to the NHL.

Pinto is looking like a steal from the 2019 draft. If he stuck around past the upcoming season (which I doubt he will), he’d be a captain. Works hard, rock solid at the face off dot, and talented. I think his floor is a bottom 6 forward.

I still believe in Wolanin, but don’t know if he’s true NHL material. Skates well and can move the puck, but doesn’t quite have the speed to control the game.
