Awful take. Dude went awkwardly into the boards and was held out for Concussion protocol reasons, and your take is that he abandoned the team?

Yea that’s gonna be a hard no from me. Top 6w, top 4d prospects plus Hartman who’s been all over me fix it for the wild and a 1st for a struggling drouin and a bag of pucks.

Addison beckman or 1sts wouldn’t be in the mix for any mn trade unless it involves a 1C. The only think Montreal has that would get mn going are kotkaniemi or Suzuki, but I know both are untouchable. So just don’t see Minn being a good trade partner for Montreal unless it’s like depth pieces.

To each their own 🤷‍♂️ All I know is that I've taken harder hits than that one from my 6yr old nephew.

One mans back of pucks is another mans NHL prospects 🤷‍♂️ and I didn't think Hartman was all that in the eyes of Wild fans... he was just a throw in because I know Bergevin drafted him while he was in CHI

The wild wouldn't want Jonathan drouin. He had been awful in every way , & shape. He was good in Tampa Bay. Drouin is also a winger being paid 5mil, & more.

Montreal would have to pay a team to take him

The wild doesn't need anymore wingers. Not to be mean, but this is just not realistic, or reality.

Victor mete wouldn't make wild

Ryan Hartman, Adam Beckman, Caden Addison are a million times better than Jonathan Drouin not to mention Minnesota isn't trading any 1st round pick, nor any team for Jonathan drouin. Montreal would have to pay Seattle to take him

It's not mean at all, just uninformed. Can't say I blame you tho as you must not get to watch much hockey other than Wild games.

Who ever said he was making the wild? Plus I'm pretty sure they aren't signing Ian cole this offseason so he cld easily slot into their 3rd pairing what are you even going on about

Caden addison would make wild 3rd pairings. So very respectfully, he won't. The only reason wild sent Caden addison down are because of cap reasons, & Carson Soucy with Ian Cole returning

Also Dakota mermis has been so good.

So in your mind, because Hartman plays 4th line wing means Drouin wld have to go directly into his vacant position? Lol there's this little thing called coaching/roster managing I think your forgetting about.

Come on whether here, or elsewhere, whether you, or other Montreal fans, you complain about Jonathan drouin being a waste of roster spot.

Wild aren't taking on Jonathan drouin. They have no need or want for wingers where they are stacked.

Nobody is taking on Jonathan drouin contract. He's been so Inconsistent, & just not good.

Do you not realize that there is salary retained on Drouin's cap hit above? Maybe you missed that

Why are you insisting on this? Wild clearly don't need wingers much less drouin. Just stop arguing. Wild wingers depth is full, & good. You really need to do research about wild before spewing this bs

Boldy and Beckman aren't going to play in the Nhl this year, what are you even saying? It's not about research it's about your arguing about my fictitious ideas with your own random "facts". Quite humorous actually

Boldy is next year. You are pushing an agenda here which is never happening. Wild also need to pay Fiala & kaprizov heavy money.

You are just trolling or trying to troll.

Other wild fans have already told you no. Again, like many wild fans said, they already have too much wingers

It's a lateral move from Drouin and Zucc on the 2nd line. Not really an improvement.

Simply put Drouin is another LHS non-elite wing. LHS wings on MN's roster: Kaprizov, Fiala, Greenway, Zucc, Parise, Foligno, MarJo, Sturm.

Kaprizov, Fiala, Greenway (figured out the NHL game), and Zucc are all as good or better than Drouin.

Foligno and Parise are better suited for a bottom-6 role than Drouin (so is Hartman). Then there is Boldy should get a shot after the college season is over.

Also Drouin would just be exposed in the SEA expansion draft for MN. Nope, not a spot for him with the Wild's roster and contracts.

Putting Foligno and especially sturm in that group is a travesty

And also, you're wrong about the SEA exp... Parise-Zuccarello-Fiala-Greenway-JEE-Foligno-Drouin; Spurgeon-Suter-Brodin; Kahkonen

Again, it wasn't that hard. You wild fans keep saying to do research but it's like y'all just choose to forget rhyme and reason

It's going to be okay that the Wild don't want Drouin. You will survive.
