Description

Spitballing some ideas for trading Matt Dumba so that Minnesota can go 7-3-1 for Seattle. Trade made prior to the expansion draft so that Minnesota can protect Foligno, Greenway and Hartman in addition to the two NMCs and Eriksson Ek and Fiala. Qualifying exposures: Rask and Sturm, Soucy, and one of the goaltenders. Exempt: Allison, Boldy, Kaprizov and Rossi.

Philadelphia will obviously be looking to upgrade their defense and has numerous forward prospects that should be interesting to Minnesota. Jay O'Brien (right-handed C Boston College sophomore) is an alternative to Allison, but is further away from the NHL; Allison should be ready next season. The Flyers probably won't part with Morgan Frost, Bobby Brink or Tyson Foerster.

No from Minnesota wild. The ask is a top 6c, or top 6c prospect for dumba. That has always been the ask from wild gm bill Guerin. He's not backing off that

The trade makes no sense before the expansion draft due to free agency but i would rather trade Frost instead of Allison if we would trade for a defense man. We have so many center prospects to trade with (Foerster, Frost, Wizdom, Laczynski, Bunnaman and Willman) if Frost would be traded for dumba it would be like Frost + 2/3 round pick in my opinion.

After watching this team this past season I'd rather part with Frost than Allison. Allison is the heart and soul type player this team needs. He's been incredibly noticeable in his first two games in the NHL. Seems like he has a lot of Scott Hartnell in him

Thanks for the input, guys. As you can see from my Team Explanation, I thought you all had a higher opinion about Frost than Allison, who I personally think is one of those below-the-radar guys that is going to surprise a lot of people next year. Good luck!

So 2 games is a pretty small sample size, I hope he does end up like a Hartnell though. And Honestly, the Wild probably want Frost or Patrick given both are NHL ready. I know Frost’s sample size is also pretty small but I really like what I’ve seen, the guy has got the speed and playmaking that we crave so badly. So fingers crossed we’re both right and everybody gets what they want.
