Speculation: Trade and Free Agency Talk - 2022-23 Edition - Postseason Success can't be a Myth!

[DeagleJenkins]

Can safely say the Wild won't be doing a trade for a guy making 9.5 million who is a team captain and possesses a NMC. Gurianov and their 2023 1st might be realistic but the Stars have a very intriguing prospect pool and are definitely in a position where the future is now.

truthfully didnt look up his cap hit, just threw out a bogus name.

Haven't heard the radio spot and Twitter tends to give bad summaries, but this one's pretty short and to the point.

i read that Erik Brannstrom being included in the trade is a hold up for a trade to Ottawa. unsure if that means they dont want to add him or we dont want him.

Twitter-chatter? Or something else?

If those two teams are the front runners, you have to hope that it means that Guerin has it centered around two main peices of similar value, and is seeing what else he can get. Namely, you’re talking about Holtz+ Vs 7OA+. That’s the hope. Maybe there’s nothing close to that in value.

im having troubles finding the tweet but it was from sash about a podcast or something or another from an insider being told a hold up is that. im trying to find the source again.

 

[DeagleJenkins]

It was from sash, but it looks to be gone or at least in some dark alley that i cant find anymore so retract my statement. my apologies.

****ing Twitter, man.

The way that fans are treating Fiala, you'd think he was Devin Setoguchi and that he was gifted those 85 points.

Also wished that Guerin didn't say anything about Fiala. Just said, he had a good season, still needs some work and that we'll see about the offseason. Just non-committal instead of blasting Fiala.

Also Austin Watson is a name to look out for; he played for Evason when he coached the Admirals. 30 year old LW. Seems like someone that Guerin would like.

****ing Twitter, man.

if you read that thread, a lot of people apparently heard him flat out say a trade is happening in the next 24 hrs. makes me want to listen to it.

Whatever complaining I might do about Russo, he's got Friedman in his phone. If he says the info's wrong I believe him.

I swear...he's going to trade Fiala for Austin Watson, Michael Del Zotto and some loose change found in the floor boards.

"You know, I get the fans are disappointed with the return we got on Fiala. But remember Fiala only had three good months and he didn't fit the team's chemistry, We brought back guys that we're familiar with and that will play hard for Minnesota. Watson played for Evason and Evason vouched for him when brought up in the trade offer. He's a good player, tough player. Del Zotto is a good defenseman and will fit well with what we have constructed here in Minnesota. Good locker room guy. I think we won this trade with what we brought in. We're going to have a good season, probably a better season than last."

i agree. ill listen to someone who can text the person directly and get an answer. they just baited me well and make me want to have a listen to see if he did indeed misspeak on it.

I'm worried about your mental health.

We need audio! Are we sure Russo isn’t covering up for his buddy?

Faber +1st

 

[TwiztedHeat]

not a good package, better have been because Fiala only wanted to extend with LA

So Dumba should be gone. I can't see them trading Dumba mid-season because they're going to be pretending they can actually make a Cup run. You can't let him walk for nothing next summer because it's just a waste. Dumba trade in the next few weeks?

Dumba extension in the next few weeks I'd guess.

Addison and/or Faber trade in the coming weeks??

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Addison and/or Faber trade in the coming weeks??

Probably not. Faber still needs to spend his ~2.5 years in the AHL after this upcoming NCAA season. Spurgeon will be in the last years by then.

So Addison/Faber rookie seasons in 6 years?

I'm betting they keep him for our annual first round exit and let him walk for nothing. What's more, Guerin will make it sound like it's the obvious thing to do.
