Description

Avs get a top 6 winger with term and a reasonable AAV as well as a depth right shot D man who can kill penalties

the Wild get some draft picks to rebuild, a young former top 10 pick who can hopefully develop into a top 6 forward in a bigger role, and a lower tier right handed centre prospect with some upside

Value is definitely reasonable and seems like a realistic offer. Although Minnesota needs more right handed shots up front so they might prefer someone like Kaut over Jost

If I'm Minnesota I counter with Zucker for Martin Kaut, Valeri Nichuskin, and a 2nd in 2020 (turns into a 1st if Colorado advances to the final 4)
