Description

Wild make big moves with teams that need to make a move (TOR) or need cap space (STL). This gives the Wild legit lines without giving up the farm. We can draft Jack Quinn at #9 this year and still have both 1st round picks next year to add scoring forwards or even a future #1 Center.

Free Agent Signings

RFA		YEARS	CAP HIT
Greenway, Jordan		2	$2,000,000
Kunin, Luke		2	$2,000,000

UFA		YEARS	CAP HIT
Soucy, Carson		3	$2,750,000

Trades

Schenn, Brayden

Additional Details:

STL gets to dump cap to resign Pietrangleo. Besides they already have O'Reilly #1, Robert Thomas can move into #2, Bozak/Barbashev fill out #3 & #4 in any order. They also fill the 2nd round pick hole in 2021. Lastly they add Dewar to add depth to the LW prospects.

STL

Dewar, Connor
2021 2nd round pick (MIN)

Additional Details:

Wild get a temporary #1 Center until they can draft and develop one.

Schenn isn’t my favorite, and I wouldn’t have minded trading him for a kushy return before signing that extension, but this isn’t happening. Management sees him as a big piece going forward and he hasn’t even played a game on his new contract.

interesting idea, but still a no from Toronto. Dumba isn't the type of d-man they need, he's a younger version of Phaneuf and that never went good. Kunin and Greenway are nice pieces, but not enough to make up what Toronto needs in a d-man.

I get it, but wouldn't they want to have Piet around more than Schenn? And with Robert Thomas waiting in the wings? Yes, you could probably move Bozak but at some point I would think Thomas would get tired of playing 3rd line minutes.

I can see that comparison but Dumba has a better shot than Dion ever did, is a faster skater and is more defensively sound that Rielly. So it gets you closer to having some presence back there.... cause it's been proven TOR can't score their way to wins... gotta have some D.

there's better options out there that will make more of an impact. Dumba isn't good defensively. He's not the answer
