Description
Thinking about Boeser and how much VAN would need to retain to make it work for the Wild. I also think Boeser at 5 mil would be quite easy to unload in the off-season if they decided to go that route.

If we assume the cap goes up to $83.5 mil, Wild are roughly $1.8 mil over with 20 skaters and key RFAs signed. The team also looks VERY different, but I think different in a good way. A lot of the roster construction is dependent on what comes in and out at the TDL, such as a young D man, that could make a guy like Goose expendable.

    Any value that goes back is likely for retention purposes. VAN would need to eat at least the $1.65 mil to get him to a $5 mil player.

      If Hartman can fetch a 1st like some Leafs fans suggest, the Wild should probably do that. I do think he fits a need for TOR in the bottom 6.

        If Greener can net one of those 2nds, I’d be pretty happy with that return. Granato was mentioned as a guy that respects what Greenway can bring and BUF is positioned to make a bet like this.

        AS a Sabers fan I like to see what Granato could do with some of these struggling players from other teams. But unless the trade is a killer deal or a RD I don't think Adam's will do it.

        Do you think they’re gonna make a move at the TDL to push for the playoffs? They’re in a spot where they can throw around a pick or 2.

        I would I would like to see Luke Schenn I think he would be the perfect fit. I think if Adam's does make a trade it's not going to be a rental. He didn't make any last year.

        I'd love to see Buffalo get Greenway, he could provide a lot of what they lack in the bottom 6. Problem would be having too many forwards considering they just waived Hino. I would think they would need to send someone else out to accommodate Greenway. Asplund would seem to make the most sense.

        @Jnowariak -- I like this build. Wild could become compliant by not signing Steel and letting Rossi take that spot or someone on a minimum and saving nearly $1M AND brining someone up on an entry deal and unloading Goose for a pick exchange. I'd rather go this route and not be pressed to move Boeser, although your retention to $5M didn't work and they would be nearly compliant with the retention that you speak of.
