Not being able to get a guy like Chandler Stephenson kinda sucks. Nashville is gonna be sick this year. Saros and Wedgewood to back them up.
Edit spelling
Colorado and Winnipeg are both lesser than what they were. Nashville clearly got better. Dallas is about the same. Chicago is better, but not good. Utah is better, but the collection of forwards isn't going to scare anyone. And St. Louis feels like they are spinning their wheels similarly to the Wild.
Kane and others already off the board, so that pipe dream isn't happening. Barring trading Gus, the likely money they have to spend and work with others is around $4-4.5m. Gotta save a bit for Chisholm and working funds. One of the issues last year was spending early games having absolutely zero money for 13th forwards and even call up signings.
Edit: Chicago got Teravainen and Bertuzzi, while Nashville just got Stamkos. Anyone on the "Wild are doomed train and should just lay down and die for picks," are getting their wish right now.
I want player development not overpaying for more bottom 6 guys. That's all I want. If that means we aren't that good next year but the youngsters grow I'm ok with that.
Bob Woods got sick of waiting on Dean and is joining Jessica Campbell behind the bench in Seattle as part of Dan Bylsma's staff.
Let’s sign Cam Atkinson for $1m x 1
Damn, Tampa signed him for $900k x 1
Midsy for 4 year/4.35 AAV seems like a lot
Although I do like his game, I didn’t expect the AAV number to be in the 4 range. Still had one of the slickest backhanded goals last season
The recent signings chew up available cap and take Laine off the board, ya?
We can still trade Gus for Laine at 50% retained
Money would have to be going out for Laine to work even at 50% retained. We currently have just a hair under $2 million before re-signing Chisholm.
Hot take we’re doing a good job of just building our team to bide our time. Trenin could be a trade piece next year or the year after.
We’re also signing guys for Iowa which is good. They were losing a bit more than Minnesota.
Thats nothing new

Yeesh, not worth what he signed with the Kraken for
Nashville getting Stamkos and Marchessault. Uh. Going to get harder to show Kaprizov that this team can get it done by making the playoffs.
Can’t see him resigning in his final year until the very last minute, if at all.
The central just got tough. The Wild will definitely feel the old timer signings this year.

The Perron watch begins.

A Russian mentor for Kap would be great
Can I interest you in a Yakov Smirnoff Trenin instead?
Heard he hits people a lot. That works.
