Trade and Free Agency - 2024-25

Did Fenton have any trades that were just decent or something? Feels like all of them were either horrible or great with no middle ground.

Coyle for Donato could have been that if Guerin and his coaches had more patience with Donato and were willing to put him in a position to succeed.

Granlund for Fiala. I hated the trade back then and I still think Fenton could've (and should've) done better based on their respective values, but even I can't deny that we won that one. Still, I'd grade it as "decent" because again, he should've gotten more.

I would classify that one under "great"

Ditto. Got his jersey.

Got my mom one for Christmas shortly after he signed, really bummed for her when he got traded. Got her a Faber jersey this season so she has a current player to wear for a while hopefully.
 
You can hate Guerin without needing to root for the Wild to do poorly in trades.

The trade is done , the result is cemented. Brazeau is a complete echl level plug. I liked Maret and I hope he finds his game. I don’t see how that’s rooting against the Wild. Guerin did what he did and the result is he made an absolutely abysmal trade regardless of how inconsequential it ends up being. Guerin is shit and this is one more example

You liked him so much yet you can’t even get his name right. Seems like the typical “anything that fits the hate Guerin charade” on your part.

Keep in mind, Brazeau put up 10+10 in 57 games for Boston playing 13 minutes a game. Khusnutdinov (can you spell that?) has 4 points in 17 games while playing almost 15 minutes a night. That’s a 13 point per 57 game pace. So if Brazeau is an ECHL level plug, imagine what that makes Khusnutdinov…
 
The Kaprizov issue is going to be even more complicated than numbers though. If I’m Guerin, I have to seriously consider what the better route is: A. Sign Kaprizov to 15M+ and try and keep it moving with this core hoping for better health and depth scoring with increased cap space, or B. Take the assets that Kaprizov returns and use the 15M elsewhere. You can do a lot with that.

I tend to lean option A, because if you lose Kaprizov you’re just going to be looking for your next franchise forward. It’s partially why I’m interested in throwing a bag at Marner this summer. Marner + Kaprizov assets is intriguing to me, if he would sign here.
Kaprizov isn't gonna be returning many assets with one year left on his contract and an NMC

How’s Brazooo looked in Mn????

He’d be traded with an extension. There’s definetly an appetite from his camps perspective to get a deal done this year in case of injury again next year.
 
Playing with the same level of effectiveness as Khusnutdinov did for Minnesota.
Nah , Khus scored a sweet break away goal. It’s because he has + speed in the nhl. Brazoeu has not one single nhl quality. He’s literally garbage and will not be in the nhl next year. I hope you choose to die on this Pejorative Slured hill , it suits you
