Wild get creative for this year and next years cap

You think Dumba would sign a 5 year extension at $5.0 mil?

Don't think someone who reached 30 goals once in an outliar season is going to get the return of a '30 goal scorer'. Timmins being added does nothing for the Leafs cap. They've got plenty with Muzzin on LTIR.

You think it would be smaller? Or you think he will not sign elsewhere? The Wild cannot afford him next year. They need to do whatever they can to get the best return. I thought WPG was a good location as they have a D need now and in the future and they are in 1st right now so they might as well go for it.

I was thinking he would be that type of player again replacing Bunting on that top line or playing on the second line with JT91 and Marner. Hartman is on pace for 25 goals this season not between KK and Zuc. Yes, I think he is that type of scorer. He also was early in his career when the Hawks were a better team.

In some ways I like the Hartman trade, but the Leaf need Timmins too. He's the 7th Dman (he actually playing tonight due to Brodie's injury) and is needed next year assuming UFA Holl leaves.
That's quite an assumption that Larkin agrees to a deal before the trade.
Can't see the Jets giving up a first for a rental,, and then there shouldn't be assumption for an extension.
Like the creativity of the post.
