LeBrun: Dallas and Minnesota interested in Brock Nelson

[north21]

If I’m Guerin I’m probably pushing my chips in the center this season. Having a couple of untouchable chips makes sense but at some point you have to give to get. If you’re not trading any of your top 5 or 6 prospects and don’t have a first you’re not receiving any difference making players, and you put yourself at risk to get bounced out in the first round again, which at this point should be fully unacceptable.

Personally I'd save some ammo. We probably are not as good as our record, an add wouldn't hurt but I am holding onto our best chips for now. Once ek is back our center depth is good and we always have Hartman as a backup. If the market is too expensive for Nelson we can pick up a wing and see what happens.

But, I do not see a fit between Isles and Wild -
The Wild do not have 2025 1st, so not sure what the main piece the Wild could offer - a second and Ohgren or Heidt is not going to cut it. I think Carolina and Dallas could top that.

Either of these options are more valuable than a late 1st and the type of prospect that's usually included in these deals lol

The only way Nelson becomes available is if Lou can't sign him to a reasonable 2 or 3 year extension.
