1) I guess I just don't understand why people think zuccarello will waive? I remember he specifically came here because in terms of his heritage, Minnesota has those people

- zuccarello: kaprizov love playing with him


Also wild just don't have cap due to needing to resign Joel Eriksson Ek, kaprizov , Fiala, kaapo kahkonen, & nico sturm

-islanders trade: marc Staal was worth 2bd round pick with 1 year left so if you look at it that way:

Leo: 1st round pick
Cal clutterbuck: 1st round pick

PS: wild don't have the cap to take on cap dump

Yep. I understand your concerns. I just thought that was an interesting idea from the last thread author. At least it entertains me. I think i signed our guys in the thread

So true. I just want to surround kaprizov with players he likes. Also of the Norwegian thing is true, after a good year by zuccarello, I would really feel wrong, like my personal view is that would be sad asking him if true it's because of the Norwegian factor

Isles decline

Why? And what is the return if you decide to dump one of them or both?

Giving up a 2022 1st to get rid of them makes no sense for the isles. They both have 1 year left and have buyout friendly contracts

ok
