Your not getting Andersson. We need him for positional need more than Eichel. Yes Eichel is better but Andersson is one of our 2 RD men under contract and probably won't be traded

NJ just added a sweetener to get rid of him, what has Butcher done since to warrant a 2nd rd pick.

Minnesota doesn't make that move, those are two premier assets for a short term player and we're not in the position to be doing that.

Wild have had no interest in Monahan for a few years now. Just realized this. Replace Pelletier with Zary and add Dube. We may need to add but this is close value IMO

He can put up points and that will always be valued imo, especially ahead of the playoffs. His minutes may be inflated due to this awful lineup

What exactly IS Minnesota in the position to be doing? They just pushed Vegas to 7 games and now seem to be back to being the Wild. Thought they were gonna make more win now moves but maybe not

They're going to try to be as competitive as they can during the dead cap years, but Guerin has maintained for two years now that he has a long term plan and he's not going to ruin that for short term improvements. Monahan would be 31 starting the season after the cap hits go away, so I can't imagine he's in any kind of long term plan here.

I think Guerin wanted to lock up certain guys long term so they could help the younger generation ease in over the next four years, but he's going to be supplementing the core with a lot of cheap FA's and ELC's.

Also it's worth noting that they were in a division where it was almost guaranteed for them to make the playoffs because 4/8 teams were bottom 10 teams going into this season. And they've always matched up well against Vegas, but the majority of our regular season success came against bottom feeders, not good teams.

Edm is looking for goalie in for goalie out. Why would they trade for an extra RW and give up a first? No thanks.

Are you proposing this as a deadline deal? If Butcher plays top 4 minutes for Buffalo and puts up points, sure I can possibly see him returning a 3rd rd pick. But reputation matters and clearly his isn’t very good right now or else a team would have given up a late rd pick for him.
