Description

Doing it to have it visualize, not really thinking this will happen in such form.

Olofsson could be added to SJS trade if they want to trade him to 3rd team, while retaining some cap hit. With 50% retention and one more year at 2,325 mil cap hit, VO being 30 goals scorer could get them 1st round pick, similar thought process like Tampa had with Hagel. Then Wild deal is not happening.

I don’t think the Wild can fit Olafsson next year. But I do think Dumba would go to BUF, but they’d need at least a 2nd and probably another piece to move him.

I think you nailed the Meier trade tho.

Minnesota absolutely declines! They aren't trading for Winger who does nothing special and won't play in Minnesota. He also doesn't have that value of 1st round pick. So no from wild

What, he would be second on your team in goals, he has one of the best shots in the league. And he's signed for 1 more year and a RFA.
