Thread: One year to cap freedom

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MNBassman</b></div><div>Why are you paying Dewer, Maroon, and Shaw so much?</div></div>

I would hope Dewar and Shaw continue to develop in their progression and become 3rd/4th line guys. With more ice time I would think Dewar could score 12-15 goals. That type of production is valuable from bottom lineup guys.

I'm more worried about a lack of size on the LHD.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TMLBRIAN</b></div><div>awesome - thank you! In that case - 5th round pick should be fair. If Minny pulls a 3rd out of someone, that is a clear win on their end.</div></div>

5th rounder for a guy who is an established 3rd/4th liner. A 5th rounder is less than a lottery ticket who likely is someone tending bar at Applebees in 4 years. But hey, I say this with all love. The two most annoying fanbases are TO and Montreal. And it's not close.

Wouldn't trade the 21st and JEE for the 5th. Hold onto that lottery ticket pal.

That's hilarious considering you have about a 20% chance the 5th OA in this draft is more productive by age 21 than Boldy has been.

Only a Habs fan could place intelligence on hold long enough to believe Fantilli slides to #5. If this was a Kings fan they would have Anaheim take But 2nd then Fantilli 3rd and so on.

He's best suited for playoffs as a 2nd pairing d-man. The Wild are hopeful their top pairing becomes Faber/Brodin the Spurgeon/Middleton or Lambos can take a lesser role in the playoffs.

I believe if they declare they are turning pro the drafting team has until August 1 to sign them. Didn't McBain leave BU after his jr year and the Wild only had until August 1st to sign him or lose him as a UFA?

Thread: Mock Draft 1.0 (with explanations)

Something tells me if Michkov is sitting there at 7 Arizona deals back for multiple other picks. Maybe 10 or 11. I just cannot see him coming over to play in Arizona. No offense but until they get an arena solution or move to another city players won't want to go there. I think Keller wants out, Cooley would prefer out among others. It's sad for the few diehards in Arizona but the situation has gotten bad.

Thread: Upgrade at RW

Since Sabres fans are so vocal about trading non-1st round picks I can tell you that offer for Clayton Keller doesn't get it done. Olofsson has little value considering Arizona won't have a true center to help him get his 23 goals. Peyton Krebs doesn't have nearly the value Sabres fans think. He's pretty much a 3rd liner. Basically it's the 13th pick and Ostlund.

Thread: Quick Wild changes

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>drmantalban</b></div><div>Based on what? He's a 3rd OA pick and projects as a top 6 C. He doesn't have leverage and AZ doesn't need to trade him.

He has leverage if he's patient and wants to stay in college 4 years. Actually, even if he leaves college next year since it's 2 years out I believe he becomes a UFA on August 1, 2024. If he doesn't sign with Arizona by that date.

Thread: Wild

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>C21</b></div><div>That doesn’t land you Cooley, that gets you laughed off the phone

Can we stop trading Goligoski in these? Highly doubt he’d waive his NMC and uproot his family just to get slapped in the face by learning the team had to pay to get rid of him. Just buy him out, the cap savings are similar, he still gets his money and if wouldn’t just retire, he could move his family for another 800k in his pocket</div></div>

You should listen to the latest Worst Seats Podcast. Russo reacts to that very proposal someone else made. Goligoski IS NOT COMING BACK TO BE SCRATCHED 44 TIMES! The man wants to play and he's not going to get much playing time here. PERIOD! The coaching staff has made this extraordinarily clear. He's a 7th defenseman and they will do what they can to avoid him playing.

By the way, you think it's any coincidence Cooley refused to sign in Arizona? I don't believe he has any interest in playing there. Andre Tourigny coached Rossi, believes in him and feels he's a sure fire NHLer.

I would think something around Gustavson would be more likely from a Wild perspective.

Thread: Antonch's Mock Draft 2023

Can't see the Wild drafting another undersized defenseman when they already have Spurgeon and Brodin signed long-term plus they have Faber, Peart, Lambos, Hunt, O'Rourke, Spacek and Masters.

Thread: Ideal Wild

If Gus insists upon $4m per my guess is they'll trade him. I would move out Sam Steel and put Adam Beckman in that spot. Cheaper and better player with a higher upside.

Thread: Make a move for your guys at the draft

You couldn't get a 1st round pick for Taylor Raddysh if you tied a $10 million money belt to his waste.

His numbers were AWFUL and considering he played top 6 minutes my 10 year old probably could have scored almost as many goals. Billy Guerin rarely deals picks and in this draft he's probably going to look to move up if he can.

Thread: Draft Floor Deals

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MTLaveragefan</b></div><div>Is that really the price for Calen Addison?</div></div>

Probably a bit steep for a late 1st round pick in a draft that goes this deep. More likely the Wilds 2nd which is like 52 and Addison to move up to 31. Addison has proven he can run an NHL PP. He needs to be paired with a bigger partner who is a true stay at home guy. I feel like his upside potential is 10-15 goals and 40-45 points.

Thread: MTL MIN NYI draft day noise

Too big of a risk for the Wild, if they deal Rossi and he becomes a 1 or 2C they get roasted. If someone offered a 1st rounder this year they likely would consider it.
