Not sure why the Sharks would trade Couture.
With Koivu not returning, MIN's top centers are M. Johansson, V. Rask, N. Bjugstad, and Joel Eriksson Ek. All of which have been stuck around 30 points or so for 3 or so seasons. Turris would be a reasonable gamble. Turris managed 31 points mainly playing with 4th line quality wingers. i think given a proper chance he'd get back to the 50 points of the 17-18 season. MIN needs centers and NSH needs wingers. This is why Zuc for Turris makes some sense. Bad thing is Zucs trade protection.... i really don't want anything to do with that.
Domi will cost more then that... but also why trade Bonino and Turris and then put Domi as 3C. Domi (like Turris) needs to be 2C or even 1C in a pinch to really flourish. Bonino is an ideal 3C and once Turris is gone it doesn't really make sense to trade him unless the team falls out of contention at the deadline.
