Land of the Lost Cap Space

Created by: Kado777
Team: 2021-22 Minnesota Wild
Initial Creation Date: Jul. 13, 2021
Published: Jul. 14, 2021
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
AZ trade: probably would be willing to throw in low level prospect or a late future draft pick

Philly trade: essentially a cap dump to free up a few million in cap (after resigning Patrick). This sets the Wild up to have extension money for Greenway

Following these trades, the protected list would be:
Forwards: Fiala, Zuccarello, Eriksson Ek, Greenway, Dvorak, Foligno, Patrick

Defense: Spurgeon, Brodin, Soucy

Goalie: Talbot

Exposed: Kahkonen, Sturm, Hartman, Rask


SEA expansion trade: Wild trade a 3rd and Sturm for Seattle selecting Rask. This frees up another 4m in cap space and protects Kahkonen. Definitely could cost slightly more, potentially a lower end prospect or late pick. The reasoning for this is Guerin likely wants to get rid of Rask, so he can use the fact that Seattle would probably be between Sturm or Kahkonen as is, so he can give them one of their choices in Sturm and a 3rd round pick for them to also take a somewhat young center who Seattle would essentially be paid with a draft pick to take a 1 year gamble on.

Ideally would like to see Rossi and Boldy end up on the “3rd” (essentially 2A and 2B) line with Fiala as shown, but with Bjugstad would likely start as a placeholder until younger players are ready for playing time

I also left around 8m in cap space for 2022, which still may not be enough to sign Greenway and Kahkonen and also fill out a good roster. if this was the scenario, would likely have to look to move another veteran.

Our Draft picks are shown in the roster, but not necessarily expecting them to get any playing time early on. These players were selected via a mock draft I did while making this team.

We won’t have to give up that much for them to take Rask, he’s not that big of a liability.
