Team: 2023-24 Minnesota Wild

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

One trade solves all.

I elevated the two most expensive (cap-hit-wise) prospects from the AHL to show that once Marcus Foligno is traded, the Wild have no cap problems. Of course, other players/prospects can be substituted for them.

Note that Alex Goligoski can be bought out to give Minnesota an additional $1,333,333 of cap space.

Yes, the bottom-6 is a little soft on experience, but at some point the Wild have to start bringing their prospects forward.

Ryan Reaves is an interesting thought for the bottom-6 instead of one of the prospects, if he could be signed for $1 million, plus he's a RW, but I don't know how realistic a possibility that is (unless Goligoski is bought out).
