Easiest no I've ever seen on this website from the Wild. Not even remotely close to acceptable. Both deals
Schultz was 15th in points this year by an RHD. Dumba tied with Tyler Myers for 24th. $2M cap savings. Cheaper to extend. Each has one 50 point season. Dumba is 4 yrs younger and recovering slowly from a pec injury.
But mostly I'm curious how you think the Wild negotiate the expansion draft.

Wild say no, kuznetsov is a good player but he has some off ice issues I'm sure the wild don't want to deal with
On anonymous surveys, 60% of American high school graduates have used illegal drugs for fun. On anonymous surveys of Canadian adults, 10% have tried cocaine. Some think people underreport, because not all users of illegal drugs trust that surveys won't be used as evidence against them. Logically these numbers are higher among people who enjoy taking risks, are fearless, and have lots of extra money. So each NHL team has at least two or three players who have tried cocaine, but some teams probably have many more. How many teams have an active player who has led the NHL in playoff points?

This value is approaching Eichel territory. I think the return for Kuzy will be a good prospect or 1st round pick, and some lesser pieces. He’s got a big cap hit with term and noted professionalism issues.
No. You can't get Eichel for twice this. Also, Kuznetsov has three 70 point seasons and one 30 point playoff. Eichel has one 70 point season and made it to the playoffs one time in juniors. But if you read my post, Minnesota fans (Caerii included) keep saying Minne doesn't have the cap space to take on Kuznetsov or Eichel, and Buffalo fans are pretty consistent in saying they want no cap hits back for Eichel, just futures. So Eichel to Minnesota might not work under a flat cap. I'm looking for a way to make Kuznetsov to Minnesota work for the Wild fans who keep asking.
