I think Greenway scores tonight.

Fiala is a Game Breaker.

Hunt and Donato out for Rask and Pateryn.

The future Wild stars turned out to be overrated. Zucker is going to be good and he was good here but he is not a number one option so he will be great being third or 5th in the Pens. Nino is and will always be streaky. Granny, is he still in the NHL? Coyle solid third line center that costs more than Ek. Next we will have to trade away Dumba to get rid of Doobs. Brodin for a Center, sounds like for Vincent Trocheck and a piece. Hopefully we can get Staal and Koivu to waive no movement clauses to get some more pieces. Looks like Galchenyuk, when he is playing fast, is a good player. I have no idea if it is motivation or what but he seems big enough to play and can shoot, would love him on a cheap deal. Kaprisov, hopefully, is coming over That is a hell of a top line if we have Fiala, Kap and Trocheck. Second line with Zuccarelo, Kunin and Donato. Third Line with Greenway, Ek, Foligno. Fourth Line use as a scoring line because the third line can do both check and score. Add in an NHL goalie that can actually make a real save and steal a game and we do not look too bad.

When I worked for the Wild CL had nothing to do with the players just the business side.

If we can get Galchenyuk for cheap why the hell wouldn't we try it? I would love the see Dumba, Brodin and Dooby gone at the deadline, for some nice prospects. Koivu and Staal gone for pics. This team could do well next year with a real #1 goalie, no idea where to find one of those even though we used to have them in the pipeline at all times!

Love the trade, under performing top 6 forward that has really regressed from his contract year. We got a top defensive prospect that can help us move Dumba or Brodin for a legit #1 C or goalie. We have an enigma winger that could blossom or turn into a 5th or higher if he takes off here ala Nino 20 game streaks. We got a #1 pick. Most of all we HAD to move Zucker to make room for Kaprisov, because Parise and Zuccarello are going nowhere.

I still don't get the allure of this game. At no time have I ever thought to myself let's go out un sub zero temps to spend $500 watching anyone play hockey. Club Level or better or why go?

Seeler should be in but as per usual the Wild cannot have a gritty team, must be an NHL mandate. Foligno needs to be in the lineup, hell he is one of the few that actually plays with heart.

Stalock sucks too. This town is always about the back up. Stalock is to Doobie as Joe Webb was to Ponder.

Man the expansion draft really hurt in MN.

BREAKING: Jared Spurgeon has signed a 7-year, $53.025 million extension, the highest cap hit in #mnwild history at $7.575 million. The contract starts in 2020-21 STORY>>> [Hidden Content]

Sounds like he was just a dick and that is the main reason he did not get time to see what his moves did.

I disagree with you to a point. This team will go one of two ways, the bottom or the top. Staal and Zucker had REALLY down years last year and I think they will both have a comeback season. Staal because he will not be asked to defend the top line again this year. I think Zucker will just be better, I have a feeling he wants to say F you to Fenton and I REALLY want him too. If Donato, Kunin, Greenway and Fiala can reach their potential this year we have a good chance of being a really good team. Doobers is a solid regular season goalie that thy need to FING REST ONCE IN A WHILE! Rask is skating in MN so I REALLY hope he does well but who knows. JEE is what he is, a third line center. Of course this could be a 1st pick team too

They better not get rid of Seeler!
