The Kings have no use for another winger. They have too many already.

Kings go nowhere near that. Rust is a good player right now, but they aren't trading one of their better prospects and another pick for someone signed past 36 years old at a high cap hit.

I think it should go without saying that if the Wild trade Fluery, it's not going to be for a much worse contract.
