Thread: Fan Opinions on Possible Players
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MNCountryClub</b></div><div>Hard to say what it would take for Rossi. I do think Guerin is taking calls on him this summer, but with another year of 14.7M in dead cap and Rossi having 1 more on his ELC, there's no urgency or incentive.

My best guess is that he'd be looking for a young d-man or a termed scoring winger, but who knows.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>FloppyBiscuit</b></div><div>Rossi is worth around what you'd value Foerster. Same age, similar production. They should just stick with him, but if they were to trade him, I'd say a top-6 winger would be great to get Mojo out of there. Although Yurov, Ohgren, and Heidt may make waiting a year or two the more pertinent move.</div></div>


Why are the Wild moving one of their two good centers for another winger? Let's make it make sense.

Thread: Last Year of Cap Hell - Aggressive
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jacketsman61</b></div><div>It really just depends on the future outlook. I mean do you maximize the years of Boldy, Kaprizov and Eriksson Ek or do you try the long game which make more sense financially but shorten the contention window. The teams that win cups are the teams that are aggressive and don’t worry so much about money. Not saying you’re wrong but FO’s think differently.</div></div>

There needs to be a window first before we worry about the window. This deal doesn't do anything to create a window.

If there's a window in a couple years or so, Spurgeon's money can be used to support that window when we know when it is and what we need. Locking it up in Severson isn't aggressive it's just reckless.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jacketsman61</b></div><div>Sorry got mixed up on the name…but as far as Gudbranson goes, he really is starting to not have much of a role on this team. I like Guddy but he is very limited and Olivier and possibly Malatesta can replace his physicality. I also have a feeling the Jackets may be targeting Adam Jiricek in the draft. Spurgeon is a huge regression risk. For a team that is trying to win now it would make more sense for them to get a younger player who is a mil cheap on the cap hit and signed long term during the duration of their most productive yrs.</div></div>

I'm not touching that Severson contract. Spurgeon's money can be put to better use later on.

And any kind of Rossi for Johnson swap is DOA because it would create a hole at center to acquire a winger.
