I think trochek was joking about joining the wild
We will soon see if Quinn makes the MN Wild "even better" in the playoffs or not. He plays high event hockey. More goals are scored, but more chances given to the other team as well. The wild were getting more shutouts and winning low scoring games before Quinn, but they are getting scoring from nearly everyone since Quinn came. Trochek would be a good fit, but it pretty much means the Wild would be out on a bigger fish in the next year if such an opportunity came knocking.
Wild Fan. We have been talking about getting him on our team all year. Also, Ryan O'Reilly, but I think he likes Nashville and most likely won't move.
Minnesota will not get past Colorado or Dallas
Sad that it's not even the WNHL… its the PWHL 😂
Quinnasoda,and we want Jack here. We'll take Vinnie too!
Wild will win the cup and Quinn Hughes will win the Norris again.
Wallstedt likely only gets traded in a giant package for Robert Thomas or someone like that. Trocheck will likely be Stramel + a first and another piece.
4:38 Minnianapolis? Lol
I am not against this. We need a top line center. They have to be a fit with Kirill, as that is the real piece that is currently missing. I like Danila Yurov and Ryan Hartman, but they should not be centering the Kaprizov line. When Ryan Hartman is centering your top line w/ your star player, you have problem that needs fixing. A solid center who works w/ Kirill and Matts will just be next level.
If the Wild are trading for trocheck they are not sending Wallstedt in that deal. They will send a a handful of picks and prospects but they will not send Wallstedt.
The one rumor that was heard was that the Wild possibly offered Wallstedt in a trade for Robert Thomas and some other big name players.
Russo also mentioned that by all indications, Quinn loves playing here in Minnesota. Says he really likes the fan base. Couple that with the Devils recently edit him out of the "brothers" USA team pics, I can't imagine he'd be thrilled with that.
As far as Trocheck, (mostly) ideal. Not thrilled about the age. However, he literally checks every other box the Wild need and the deal he's on is right in the price range.
Not sure what they'll trade however. Drury is a clearly a terrible negotiator. But, Guerin will generall overpay. So, it'll probably even out. Sounds like the Wild are very happy with Yurov's development, so I don't think they'll ship him out. Plus that would work against the problem they're trying to solve. I'd hate to give up Stramel, but we'll see what happens.
Jack Hughes is made of glass just like Demko..
As a tortured Minnesota sports fan.. Hughes has given me the most hope I’ve ever had for a championship. Thank you Vancouver
Not for Wallstedt
Trocheck for a hunter haight and a 2nd or something sounds good. Still want to see the wild go get a Thomas/hischier which would be Wally/stramel1st type deal
