Everyone is saying we can move Pominville, but can we? Doesn't have have a modified trade clause?
Russo has reported multiple times that there are trading windows or other opening for Pominville, who does not have a full NTC.Everyone is saying we can move Pominville, but can we? Doesn't have have a modified trade clause?

Even if that is true you have to find someone willing to take him which I dont see IMO
Brodin for #4 or #5 makes sense to me. Dumba doesn't get a top 5 pick IMO.
Bird in the hand worth...
Clear consensus is there are 3 studs in the draft this year and then a significant drop off. Several good to excellent prospects but still prospects who could be a couple years away. The clock is ticking big time on Mikko, Parise, and Suter. Are we in a rebuild? Can we give away a starter now for a prospect?
I agree, I truly think you see the Wild trade 15 before they move up. A guy like Bobby Ryan, as has been suggested, wouldn't be a surprise, as Fletch is all-in on his core guys.
I'd hate to see the GM I hired trading away all of our futures to try to win now, because it most likely means we're going to go through a significant stretch in the future with no prospects, and no playoffs.
The Wild's prospect cupboard is almost empty. Clearly bottom 1/3rd in prospects, maybe a bottom five team. Fletcher got so much praise for restocking the prospect pool. Guess that was then, this is now...
Obviously the Wild was a Playoff team this year, but just barely; lowest point total for years...
Parise, Suter, and Mikko aren't getting any younger. IMO the Wild is in a "Win Now" phase.
So with Matthews going to Toronto as well as Stamkos possibly signing there, could Kadri be available for cheap? I still think we should go after a centre, and even if he wasn't the legitimate #1C we crave for, he would allow us to play Granlund and Coyle on the wing.
