Value of: Minnesota Embraces the Rebuild: Fire Sale

[Digitalbooya]

Fiala doesn't exactly move the needle tbh.

What do you want from me lol

 

[Bryanbryoil]

What would you want from Edmonton for Zucker? Keep in mind that we'd need to shed some salary to make it work.

Just send over one player who is making 8.5m...

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

Id love spurgeon but not sure wed be able to afford him w/o making our team worse... unless you guys are lookin for pick and prospects

I'm not sure, but not him. Hes a gamble at this point. In that scenario I'd rather take back a young defender. Not a top prospect or anything, just one with upside. Even a third pairing D. Fiala would just add to a strength.

I’d be a lot bit scared that Fiala turns into a player equal to or even greater than Nylander playing with real good players, and I’d be just as scared that Nylander turns into a Fiala level player when he is forced to drive play himself.

Depends on what picks/prospects you offer.

 

[Habs Halifax]

Wild the next team to come close to having a sell off sale but turning it around and winning a cup? .

Ok, I woke up from my dream now

 

[57special]

A really late first( where TOR is likely to pick) and prospects for Spurgeon doesn't get me excited, at all. They would also have to send back salary, and probably not very good salary.

Only thing that fits for me is Nylander, but I don't think TML wants to do that.

They also don't have their 2020 1st.

Edit: Nevermind I had that backwards.

I thought it was just top-10 protected?

 

[Merrrlin]

From NYI I'd like to add Zucker and Donato.

From TOR I'd like to add Foligno and Spurgeon.

Some real good pieces to sell for a rebuild there.

 

[Kamiccolo]

Not sure what is with the hate of Kap lately. Always 1 guy fans are always trying to trade. He is a middle 6 winger that can play special teams and pot 20 goals. He is signed with term for cheap. You need some depth guys who are established. He can also slide up the lineup.

6 poor games on his offside on a struggling line to start the year means nothing. When he went back to his RW natural side last night his line has 60% CF..

Whoever made this needs to stop. Spurgeon & brodin & parise & suter & dumba aren't going anywhere

Brodin is one of the most movable assets on the Wild roster. In fact, looking at the future of the team, he's one of the least likely to be here around expansion draft time.

I would guess that he’s the guy Seattle picks

 

[Jesus comma Brodin]

Trading Brodin would kill me but it may need to happen sooner than later. The return should be great and considering we have 392 immovable contracts, he is the logical one to put on the trade block.

He’s still young, can play both sides, PK stud and one of the best skaters around. Dude is just an all around stud. Florida would be a good landing spot for him. Play on the top pair with Ekblad.

Eric Staal to the Flames for : I dunno, not nothing, definitely something, but not a big something.

Probably a pick with some sort of condition based on performance then another pick with no condition.

 

[57special]

Yeah, let's trade our good young players like Brodin and keep our old non performing players like Dubnyk, Staal, Parise, Pateryn.

Makes no f***ing sense. Brodin can decline 20% in his skating ability and still be above average. He's good for another 8-10 years. Keep him and Dumba, and attempt to move everyone else.

I mean if you can trade those guys by all means, do that first.

If we're looking at guys who are both moveable and valuable though, Brodin's name is definitely at the top right now.

This team has a ton of problems, top 4 defense isn't one of them. To fix other problems you need to move from a position of strength.

Our top 4 is our strength, but 2 have no move clauses, the other is our centerpiece to build from.

With all the unmovable pieces at forward, that leaves one obvious moveable piece that can bring a valuable return to help right this ship in the next 2 years. Brodin.

Get a nice return, which also clears some cap to give the team roster freedom to build with.
