the difference in the contract lengths kill the deal imo.

Depends on what Parise thinks of Buffalo. It's not completely preposterous, but Skinner is $1.5M more against the cap and we have a lot of big contracts that could be signed this summer so we need the cap. Plus, cap recapture is a factor and if Parise retires we are f'ed.

Edit: for some reason I thought Skinner had the same term. 7 years, wow. Disregard what I said, don't see this happening unless we also get Eichel (and obviously add)

Right, Skinner has two more years but is also 8 years younger and has more rebound potential.

Robbery by Buffalo here. This deal would set Minnesota back years UNLESS they pull 30 goals-50 points out of skinner

I've thought about it but figured Minnesota fans would freak out about it

Parise Has negative impacts. Skinner has been amazing defensively this year. Neither players waive.

It's interesting because I think it's more a robbery by Minnesota. Skinner is 28 and has bounce back potential in the right circumstances.

i agree skinner is more likely to rebound. if i'm a gm i'd just want to get out from under either contract as soon as possible.

"Neither players waive" is for sure a hot take. If I'm a player and I have to sit on the bench, and all I have to do is head 950 km east to play, I do it.

This is definitely interesting, and could be something both teams should look at. Parise and Skinner are not doing well at all, if they both waived a change of scenery could be what they need. Apparently Skinner loves it in Buffalo though, but definitely a interesting idea.

Good thinking. If anyone knows exactly how recapturing penalty works can you clarify? I can see that being a big risk here but my understanding of it is rather limited.

It's the only trade for either guy that makes sense. Skinner needs a fresh start. BUF could even flip ZP with 50% retain in the future. I'm for this

No it's a hard decline all around. Parise's money will be needed to cover some guys raises when it's over. Unequivocal no.

Minnesota says heck no. Parise isn't even playing in top 6. Get real. Minnesota isn't taking greenway or zuccarello off top 6 much less fiala & kaprizov

Of course you do. Wild don't. Research wild team before saying this. Parise has been more effective to the wild & has goals this year.

Minnesota isn't trading parise for trash Jeff skinner

Minnesota isn't taking zuccarello, & or greenway out of top 6. Good talk

No dude, wild aren't taking on this trash contract. Minnesota already has a zillion winger waiting, good ones also needing top 6 roles like Matt boley,. Seems no one here does their homework regarding wild

You need to calm down with your homework stuff. I took a look at your posting history, you're arrogant, harsh and there's no need to argue with you.

Well, you are arguing/ saying wild should take on Jeff skinner trash contract. Minnesota doesn't do that deal / touch it. Minnesota isn't taking any players from their top 4

He’s been amazing defensively along with Eichel. Analytics and eye test support it.

Ah yes, a fan who only knows their own team. Great points pal. Skinner has never been good and at his old age never will be. Zach is still young and super talented. Surprisingly you do make a great point of the top 6 wingers being filled, however your C is weak AF so maybe moving an asset like Zuc who randomly has found his old game again for a handful of game and hopefully keeps it up, or moving Fiala who will demand a nice raise with term could be moved to another team for a C. Now to address your idiocy, I've done plenty of research on all the teams in the league including your Wild.

Yet you say jeff skinner should be accepted by wild, very funny isn't.

Wild don't even have room for Matt boldy, lottery winger pick

Well he wouldn't play on wild. Wild have zero room or need for skinner.

Resigning kaprizov, & fiala take more priority for Guerin
