<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Clement</b></div><div>1) Will GM has made it clear he's not doing a 3 years deal with kaprizov

2) at best nolan's Patrick value is 3rd, or 4th round pick, why are you giving one of Wild's top c prospect, and 3rd round pick?


3) With all due respect, wild have zero needs for Phil Kessel, his contract, and his cap hold. Keeping Parise is better

So with all due respect,,every proposal is bad for wild, and from that perspective would be a no</div></div>

First point I hope he can get more than 3 years. This contract is practically a worse case scenario.

Second point no argument.

Third point I have to disagree. Kessel only having one year left, can still score, and brings another right hand shot to a lineup (more importantly PP) that could use more. Just for the fact that we get out of 3 years of Parise's cap hit is a win in my book. However in Russo's article on the Athletic today he did come out and say we would still be on the hook for recapture penalties even with a buy out so maybe Parise will stay.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caerii</b></div><div>Yeah because we have 145k in cap space with no 13th forward or 7th defenseman, no money left to meaningfully upgrade the roster in any way in the next 2-3 years, you can't give anyone raises, you desperately need cheap talent and you traded Boldy and three firsts away so you don't have any.

Hockey is a team game. Winning the Cup is about having guys playing above their contracts. Most of your money is going to guys who can not realistically play above their contracts.

Eichel is a great player. If we could sign him as a UFA for 10M this summer without giving anything up for him, we still probably couldn't without losing a good piece or two to the salary cap. But trading for him compounds the issue because of what you're also giving up to acquire him. He's just not worth it, even though he is a true 1C.</div></div>

That was a great response.

But with the little cap you can look for cheaper options than Foligno and Patrick (Patrick I really like and hope we make a move for) to use the cap elsewhere. But I get your point and agree. As looking at athletic posts and seeing what we are interested in it seems like Eichel is the only public target out there right now so I made a post.
