that's cap!!! Fiala is no doubt having a better season than Boeser.

I think its a fair swap considering similar contact situation, both guys could benefit from change of scenery, and the connections between Guerin and new VAN front office.

Right totally because having the better season is more important than the fact that Boeser has had the better career, is younger, and probably gonna be cheaper than Fiala. Terrible idea, lateral movement at best. It doesn’t make the team any better 🙄

Sharks decline that. They just spent a 2nd on Hill, I don’t see them moving him unless it’s a great deal for San Jose which this isn’t.

just trying to get a stable goalie while giving trading away Talbots cap hit. As the other Sharks fan said they gave up a second for him last year so he has to bring back some sort of return. Johannson has not future in MIN while the conditional pick is for retaining salary.

I have no idea what Fiala wants but as reported before he wants top winger like money. If he wants anything more than $7M id be okay with a lateral move for another winger.

I also think Guerin would be hesitant to give him a NMC or NTC which could help with lowering the price of another RFA.

I like the idea of Johansson because he's a RD but looking at his stats, it doesn't really look like he's gonna turn into anything so that kinda kills the trade a bit.

Yeah I’m not sure what he wants either, but I think 6x6.5 is fair. I have no basis whatsoever for this, but my gut says that Guerin didn’t go into negotiations last summer with any intention of offering him a long term deal. As such, I don’t put much stock into the reported $7M ask. I think things have changed dramatically for Fiala since the arrival of Boldy and while I don’t think he’d take a discount, I think he’s open to a fair deal. Again, purely just my gut take so not something I’d expect anyone else to side with. But that’s my read on things.

I don't hate the Boeser for Fiala swap but I do think the Canucks would need a bit more. Boeser is a year younger and a right hand shot which is more difficult to come by.

The fact that people even entertain a one for one swap of Boeser for Fiala just goes to show how much they don't know

Fiala is not getting an AAV of 7M or higher, it's absolutely going to be under 7M

Wild have to add a 3rd round pick minimum to make that Vancouver trade work

Sharks accept, though this Hill for Talbot trade is one of the stranger trades I've seen on this site.

So. Bowser has a 7.5 mil QO. Fiala has 5.5 mil QO. Both have 1 year of RFA left. Neither guy is taking less than 7 with term. These are the facts ATM.

Wild would have to view Boeser as a must have in that case. I think the Canucks would be pretty inclined to accept if Guerin offered that

I'm going to preface this by saying personally, I'm not really a fan of us trading for Boeser. I'd rather us use our assets to trade for an area of greater need. While Boeser may be an upgrade to some of the players we have, I think it would make a much more marginal difference than if we upgraded our center depth.

Now, a couple points here. Fiala is 7 months older than Boeser. Saying he's younger doesn't mean much when it's not even a year's difference. Saying Fiala's older without that context can make it sound like we're talking about trading Thornton for Horvat.

The other point I have, is about Juiceman's logic in terms of contract value. My belief, which Knuckl3s appears to agree with, is that Fiala is going to cost less than Boeser by a decent margin. Boeser's QO this offseason is $7.5 million. I don't see Fiala making over $7 million unless he does something insane in the back half of the season and even then, it's probably a stretch. Last offseason, the projections for his value on a 5 year contract were in the range of about $6.1-6.5 million. Considering the fact that his QO is at least $1 million higher than that, I don't see how he ends up cheaper than Fiala.

I've seen you in a ton of Wild threads saying Fiala sucks. Show your work. Why do you think he's trash? We have legit reasons why we might need to trade him, and legit reasons to want to keep them. None of them are because he sucks.

Right now you sound like that Wild fan on here who keeps getting accounts banned because he trolls threads basically saying there's no trade/contract good enough for any of our players. All I've seen you saying is that our players suck and we don't have the possible assets to ever make a trade with Vancouver. Not that we don't have the assets we're willing to move, but that we don't have any good assets period.

wild fans reasons, your reasons you allude to, is cap space the wild will struggle with hence the reason for including Fiala in trade proposals.
Boeser, or Miller even make more then Fiala and are in fact entitled to more on new deals the Fiala can even imagine.

So the wild fan theory of "no cap space, trade Fiala" holds no ground for me, Wild fans are trading him because he is wildly inconsistent statistically and history has proven that, and thw wild fan base is tired of it.
