Team: 2020-21 Minnesota Wild

Initial Creation Date: Apr. 8, 2020

Published: Apr. 8, 2020

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

This team would have the first legitimate 1st line in franchise history, interchangeable 2nd and 3rd lines for matchup/situational purposes, a 4th line who would be a pain in the arse to play against a one that can also contribute offensively, and 3 very solid sets of defensemen.
Goaltending prowess TBD...

Additional Details:

This deal is dependent on there being a CBO - which will be used on Okposo. Buffalo can (if they choose) rid themselves of Skinner’s contract.

BUF

Zuccarello, Mats ($1,000,000 retained)

Additional Details:

This might be one of my craziest/dumbest ideas yet...and that says a lot! However, i firmly believe that any off season plans by the Wild that do not include efforts to move Zuccarello are incomplete. I am very interested in everyone’s opinion on this.

Buffalo says yes

Can you put together a PR package on the rich Norwegian history of the Buffalo area? Might need it to get Zuccarello to waive his NMC.

Calgary says no, you can find your 1C from a team that has center depth. Why not see what you have in Beckman and Khovanov first?

Calgary wouldn't say yes to that. Monahan is a legit 1C and Dumba isn't a top pair guy. Ristolainen is not very good and hardly belongs on a second pair, plus taking Okposo is pointless, better to just keep Zuccarello. You're insane if you think Soucy signs at 5 years for under 3 million. same with Greenway at 3 years under 2 million.
