Doesn't mean it always has to.Could be that the team’s current “3rd” line has Foligno and Trenin on it.

you forgot Boeser! The Wild have said they have a couple players identified for Free Agency already, Boeser to Wild is about as automatic as Vanek to Wild wasThat’s fine. I don’t have a problem if they keep Rossi in the top 6. But I expect Yurov to make his way to a scoring line rather fast. Maybe they put Ek father back on the third line:
Kaprizov-Rossi-Zucc
Boldy-Yurov-Xhgren
Khusnutdinov-Eriksson Ek-Hartman
Foligno-Gaudreau-Lauko
Trenin
That’s a pretty deep forward group.
Agreed. However, Foligno/Trenin/Hartman/Gaudreau are locked in through at least the 26-27 season. A scoring 3rd line with Rossi would need to look like Khusnutdinov-Rossi-Hartman. Speed, playmaking, finishing. I like that mix.Doesn't mean it always has to.
100% view him as a target, but did not include players outside the organization. He would take Ewgren's spot if he is signed. Ehgren down to 3LW. Khusnutdinov to 4C.you forgot Boeser!

I don't consider Hartman to the same as the other 3, and I'd be eyeballing Ohgren or Heidt for that LW spot.Agreed.

If we bridge Rossi at $5M next year and Khusnutdinov at $2M, we'll have ~$6.5M to spend depending on any overages this year, leaving ~$1M in space.100% view him as a target, but did not include players outside the organization.

It would be crazy if they signed Boeser and traded Rossi because they "couldn't afford to keep him" (or whatever they will say).
So like Heidt-Rossi-Hartman? That is good in my books. Ohgren-Rossi-Hartman might have too much of a shooter lean to it lolI don't consider Hartman to the same as the other 3, and I'd be eyeballing Ohgren or Heidt for that LW spot.
