Trading Fiala is the last thing they should do
Quoting: JayTea
Not to mention including him in any deal to unload Rask, who they could just buy out or better yet just keep him and let his deal expire if they are rebuilding.
As a non-Wild fan, I am not of the school of thought of a full fledged rebuild at all.
1. The depth the Wild have on the wing is better than most teams - and outside of Zucc and Parise, it's younger and pretty talented. You can work with that.
2. Any thoughts of a full feldged rebuild flew out the window with Spurgeon resigning. So, a top 4 or he, Brodin, Suter amd Dumba is pretty dang solid. Addison will come - and the Wild could stand to fill out some organizational depth here, but that top 4 is set for another 3-4years.
3. Kähkönen.
4. We can talk about the real lack of centre depth, but if all things go to plan, are Rossi, Boldy and Erikkson-Ek not good? Again, organizationally this could stand some filling out, but it seems to me there is direction here.
5. With the expiring deals here, Guerin has options.
Bonino should fetch a 3rd or a grade B prospect at least.
Johanson should fetch a 3rd or a grade B prospect at least.
Either playet could start to fill out organizational needs.
Point I am making is this is a team in a spot that need to be filling out the edges imo, not blowing it up.
