Thread: Chychrun to MN

Before everyone says: "Russo already said no on the rumor"
Still think this makes sense. Chychrun would be an immediate improvement with Dumba supposedly gone by the TDL.
Addison has been great on the PP but still needs to mature his play in 5v5. Arizona might be able to give him more time. Same for Rossi. He can get NHL minutes without pressure.

Thread: Minnesota Wild signed Matthew Boldy (7 Years / $7,000,000 AAV)

This is a steal. Considering who he played most of his minutes with this year he will only get better once he has proper line mates. Not being disrespectful to Gaudreau, Steel, Walker or Hartmann but his production will take a leap when he gets more offensive skill on his line. I am projecting he will outperform his contract similar to Stützle within the next two years.

Thread: Lafreniere to the Wild

Lafreniere has just been scratched and might not turn out to be the impact player in New York. Due to the lack of available talent Minnesota had to put players in roles that they would normally not haven been suited for. Gaudreau, Hartmann, Steel and even Zuccarello have benefited from increased ice time higher up in the line-up. Lafreniere would slot nicely into a second line role next to Gaudreau and Boldy. The 2023 first round pick plus a B rated prospect should be enough compensation for a demoted high profile prospect.

Additionally, it would help Minnesota a lot in the current salary cap situation to have an underperforming sleeper on a cheap bridge deal.

Thread: Puljujarvi to MIN

Puljujarvi needs a change a scenery and MIN has a spot open in the 3rd line with Boldy. He might fit the hard working play style of the Wild while adding some skill to the lineup. There are other guys in the team such as Foligno, JEEK and Reaves who could help him with the transition to more physical force. MIN has some salary cap room this year and could use this as a PTO. Low risk high reward scenario here

Thread: Dumba for Nelson

NYI is trying to sign Kadri and has an abundance of centers. They can trade for a servicable RD and make room in the middle. Brock Nelson comes home to MN and helps the Wild in their weakest position

Thread: Chychrun to MN corrected

It would also mean that Minnesota has enough cap space to finally add a 1st line center in Nazem Kadri. (Maybe for 5.5m AVV) and a second line winger in Puljujärvi.

Thread: Chychrun to MN corrected

This deals works for every team on multiple levels:
- LAK gets a cheap top 4 D for another Cup run
- ARI gets a NHL ready D prospect, picks and a roster player
- MIN gets a cheap upgrade on D during the tight years
- Addison will get playing time in the NHL
- Chychrun will play on a decent team with playoff chances
- MIN will likely have cap space this year so they can retain part of Dumba's salary for one year but they will save on Chychrun's salary down the line

This could be a win win win for all three teams

Thread: DumbaJostPick for NecasProspect

How long will Necas remain an RFA?
For MN it would be ideal to sign him on a 3 year bridge deal until the dead cap hit from the Suter and Parise buy-outs is off the books. (AAV of 4m - 4.5m)

Forum: Trade Machine ProposalsJul. 3, 2022 at 5:42 p.m.

Thread: DumbaJostPick for NecasProspect

MN needs a Top 6 winger and Necas might be affordable. MN goalie prospect pool behind Wallstedt needs to be improved as well.

Carolina gets a right handed top 4 defender for another run plus more depth for the bottom 6. Additional draft pick to balance trade value

Thread: Swiss Player Swap

If Fiala is not willing to sign a team friendly deal, MN will not be able to squeeze him in. Meier's contract would probably work

Thread: Chychrun to MN

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GophersBenJ</b></div><div>We have no need for Jakob. So respectfully, not a bad price, but when dumba and addison comes back, we have no need and room on our roster for jakob</div></div>

Goligoski, Benn and Dumba might not be there after the end of the season. Dumba will need to go to make room for Fiala's new contract. Goligoski might not take a paycut and Benn is just bad. Chychrun has a very affordable contract that fits in nicely.

Thread: Chychrun to MN

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Xertalz</b></div><div>Definitely not enough for Chych. AZ's ask is a 1st rounder, A+ prospect and good young roster player</div></div>

Beckmann almost made the roster from training camp. He is a shooting machine but having a bit of a down year because he is only playing on a checking line in IA. There is no doubt that he will thrive with the right linemates in a top 6 role. Dewar is still a rookie and a potential middle 6 forward.

AZ will never get an A+ prospect for Chychrun if you ask me.

Thread: Eichel to MN for Rask Rossi and Picks

Rask, Rossi and 2022 1st round pick guaranteed.
2023 1st if Eichel plays more than 60 games next season. 2023 2nd if MN wins the Stanley Cup in 2022 or 2023.

Thread: Minnesota Wild signed Kevin Fiala (1 Year / $5,100,000 AAV)

I think this is a good deal.
With the upcoming cap restrictions it gives Fiala and MN a chance to see where the team is after next season.

Fiala needs to perform to secure himself a good contract and MN keeps the control over the negotiations.

If MN is able to remain competitive with young players pitching in on ELCs (Rossi, Boldy, Addison) Fiala will be willing to resign longterm.
