not quite enough; switch Duhaime w/ a solid forward prospect

Beckman or Khusnutdinov

My thoughts exactly.

Definitely not getting a 1st, 2nd and Beck/Khust. That would be a massive haul for a rental that the wild cannot afford to extend.

Drop the 2nd. You're not getting what would be your best Center for Duhaime. 1st and beck or Khus. Your deal is not getting Hertl.

It's not his deal, it's a Leafs fan that made the thread, and you're not getting prospects like Beckman or Khusnutdinov on top of a 1st for a guy everyone knows is going straight to free agency from a rebuilding team. Maybe you can try knocking on Florida or Carolina's door for a deal like that.

Well first of all this isn’t even my proposal. And second, I have no interest in the Wild pursuing Hertl, since we can’t afford the extension.

Love thus comment. In thus 2022 draft, and how gm's are looking at it, people will be shocked at the price rentals come at. Will not be a buyer's market

Then the whole thread is pointless.

Cool, well it’s still not my thread, so feel free to direct that at OP.

maybe switch the 2nd to a 3rd but it would have to be a 1st and one of those guys at the very least.

No it wouldn't.

then the Sharks will happily keep him

Good

Then in July he'll sign with a new team and the Sharks will happily get nothing

Sharks are doing ok now and the team has good morale. W/ Eklund, Bordeleau, Robins, etc. being close to NHL ready we’ll be a decent team pretty soon. He’ll re-sign.
