LeBrun: Dallas and Minnesota interested in Brock Nelson

[miscs75]

Wild need to bring home Nelson and Boeser this summer.

They come home every summer to play for the John Scott Cup…

I’m sure teams are lining to trade 1st+ for a guy who hasn’t scored a goal since November. lol

Time will tell my brotha. It's always an arms race during deadline day.

I'd still love Nelson on this team but not at the expense or replacing Rossi, if that's a choice we have to make. We should have extended Rossi before the season started. Now he's going to cost significantly more than he would have. Not sure what kind of discount Nelson would accept for re-signing but I mostly think that's BS anyway.

Not sure what Rossi has to do with Nelson at all. Nelson is looking like a 3C faceoff specialist at the moment.

If they trade Rossi they'd have to get a C from somewhere just to keep things running until that russian decides to come over and a middle six C is probably the stopgap they'd look for if Rossi was traded for a package that didn't include a near replacement C (unlikely because why trade him, then).

They're not trading Rossi.

OMG he scored and had an assist tonight so..

Three first rounders? Is this how it works?

I wouldn't pay a 2nd+prospect for him. He's at the age where his play is at the cliff's edge. If you can sucker some team into a 1st, I feel sorry for that team.

It’s a rental, you’re acting like a 3-4 year contract is to follow with the expectations he’s gonna hit 30 goals per.

Agree. As a Stars fan, and their forward group starting to run, I hope if our GM Nill uses his assets it’ll be for another solid D-man; a Tanev type of trade like last season.
