Coyle is a 3.2 cap hit, 6'3, 220lbs Right hand shot, 23 years old. He hasn't lived up to expectations but still is a good player.

He has 32 points in 63 games this year with Minny having Parise, Koivu, Granlund, Vanek, Nino, Pominville, Zucker they might be willing to get rid of his cap hit for a pick.

I think an offer of Cal 2nd 2016 at the draft might get it done.

Also note Minny only has 4 picks (1st, 4th, 7th, 7th) at this draft so with Flames having multiple picks, this might be a perfect match.
Nice find.

Yeah Coyle would be awesome.

EDIT: Of course, I'm sure the Wild would rather try to move Pominville or Vanek first, but you never know. I'm sure if Coyle becomes available BT will be all over it.
