Description

The Wild filed for arbitration. Fiala has the choice of a 1 or 2 year contract. I assume he chooses 2 years which will take him to UFA status. I think a trade would be inevitable.
Looking at trade options, I looked for teams that would be trying to win now and took back useful players those teams are looking to trade.

Yii ok I will get roasted for the fiala value. I love him but that’s overvaluing him

Blues pass. Maybe with Tank and the pick, but Bolduc makes it too much.

I wouldn't trade Vilardi for Fiala 1-for-1.

That’s fair. In my original draft I had Vlad, Bolduc and a possible conditional pick based on players’ production. Decided to go with the 1st because Vlad’s value seems to be minuscule and the 1st would be late in the round.

Nor would I. That’s why I added a guy who was rumored as a possible buyout candidate and an easily replaced fourth line grinder. With the addition of Danault to their lineup, the Kings can afford to move Vilardi. If the additional 1st seems rich, so be it.
