<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dannibalcorpse</b></div><div>Bourgault is a 1st rounder from last year that put up video game numbers in the Q(nearly 2 points per game!), and OP is throwing in a 2023 1st - you know, the draft that most evaluators are calling one of the deepest in a long time? Foligno is a fine player, and I know he's an important part of team leadership, but if a team is offering you a top tier prospect &amp; a 2023 1st for him, you move him out. He's a 31 year old, 25-30 point player being carried by completely unsustainable numbers - if someone is going to pay that kind of package at the height of his value, you'd be silly to pass on it.</div></div>


You clearly don't know who Marcus foligno is to wild. They aren't moving him short of a top 4 C. So no, a 1st, late at that and prospect isn't getting down. You have zero idea who Marcus foligno is to kaprizov either or Guerin or dean Evason. Marcus foligno is the heart beat of the team and wild aren't moving him short of overpayment

-I don't think teams are going to be lining up to take Foegele's deal, but i also don't think you need to sacrifice Puljujarvi *and* trade out of the 2024 1st rounder to get him off your cap. At the very least, you can do next summer what Minnesota did to shed Dmitry Kulikov this summer, and get a team with space to just take him for nothing.

-Vegas, hilariously, is literally already over the cap for 2023-24 with their current contract situation. I would be very surprised if they traded McNabb ($2.875M) for Barrie ($4.5M) without more cap going out. I think the package is acceptable, sure, but logistically I can't see the Knights having the room to do this as of now.

-Minnesota runs away with this deal before you can change your mind. Foligno is a fine player, and I know you're looking for more sandpaper with these deals, but he's literally a 35-40 point guy. His offensive spike the past two seasons is built on the back of an insane 24.6% shooting percentage that is, obviously, due for some regression. Giving up a 1st by itself is a lot, and throwing in one of your better prospects is just overkill. The Wild thank you for your service.

-There are probably a dozen AHL-level guys like O'Brien that you can sign for free and keep the pick if you want a face-puncher. Cody McLeod, Rich Clune, and Zac Rinaldo are all guys with NHL experience you could get for nothing. Bad type of player to spend a pick on, IMO.

Since you're a big analytics fan, you must know that Puljujarvi was top-5 in the league in Rels, right? Right alongside some guy named Auston Matthews.
