Confirmed with Link: Marcus Johansson for a 2024 3rd

I just read the first page of this thread for fun. It was no fun, oh my how the winds can change fast

It's our motto.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

I think this is tremendous. You guys just don't see it.

I'm still going to count this as a win, even though it is possible that it was mostly sarcastic, because I had minimal thoughts on the trade when it happened.

BTW the first season Johansson was here, Boldy wasn't.

No, but he played a majority of his time with Fiala and Hartman.

Pretty sure I'm the only one on the first page who wasn't negative af lol.

Uh... Why? I'd rather have the 3rd

MJ is done

Oops!

Ya think?

 

[thestonedkoala]

Oops!

I think we were all wrong about Johansson

Hell, even me being generally pro BG, was AT BEST ... "meh, its a warm body for a random mid pick" about this trade.

17 points in 19 games for Johansson.. just brilliant trade
And this is a goal for the highlight reels.

He has 17 points in 19 games, not 16. Got 2+1 vs the hawks

Not my tweet, and doesn't change the point of it either.

Are you guys going to re-sign this guy??? Man, he and Boldy have been money. Shades of Fiala...I'd say at this point there must be some mutal desire between the Wild and MoJo to keep this relationship going.

MoJo has said he's sick of moving around. Considering his success with Boldy, I could see him taking a discount to stay

These two are reading each other's minds at this point. When MoJo dropped it between his legs for Boldy, you could see he knew he was getting it back before Boldy even picked up the puck...

 

[f7ben]

If this keeps up and they have playoff success together a discount is still going to be 5 million per year with term. Not sure we can commit that

A Swede in Minnesota sounds like a fit to me. I’d love it if they could re-sign him for 2x2M( he is making 1.1M now), but the way he is playing he should be getting 4-5M per year. After Gus, he has to be the biggest priority to re-sign this off season, unless he absolutely disappears in the post season.

I do think that having a few Swedes, and Euros, on the team has to give him a comfort level.

Completely agree.

I was very "meh" when we traded for him based off his first stint but the way he's producing AND unlocked Boldy? GMBG hit a 2-run homer with that one.

Gus, JoJo, and Freddy would be my top-3 to retain and see if Reavo will play ball to stay in Minny.

One of these guys is not like the other, one of these guys doesn't belong...

 

[Sweetnut]

Funny how this thread has gone from everybody being disappointed in getting him to panicking when he got hurt and REALLY wanting him to resign

I assume you’re talking about Gustavsson since he’s a goaltender and a RFA.

I think the forwards should be brought back if they are okay with team friendly contracts.

Nope, Gus is a very integral part of the team.
JoJo is quickly becoming the same.
Freddy? Meh. I can take him or leave him. If he wants even close to $4m? I'd be happier to leave him in a heartbeat.

Freddy isn’t going to get $4M he will get $2.5-3M. He’s a nice utility center, 2nd/3rd line tweener.

How about if Johansson wants $6-7M? He’s almost ppg with Boldy. How “integral” is he?

Yeah, one just signed 5/10.5
