Description

This isn't a very serious post, all the trades are pretty loose and personally I think the Wild should just stay the course, but IF these guys are available AND the Wild really want to go all in. I think this would be fun to see

I believe the team should have enough cap by the deadline to make this work, do correct me if I'm wrong. This is all in the name of fun

The main idea here bring in a stud center and a good winger for the 2nd line. Move out Hartzy and Dumba for assets, roster and cap space to make it all work, constructive criticism is welcome!

Yes, I know this is a pipedream but it'd be cool to see. The Larkin trade is probably in need of the most tweaking here

Larkin doesn't waive for Minnesota, And Minnesota's not giving up that much for a player they absolutely cannot re-sign. Larkin wants 7 x $10,500,000 on the open market. And Minnesota doesn't have it.
