Sounds like Andrew McBain's kid is interesting to a lot of GMs. Speculation is that Minnesota will trade his rights rather than lose him for nothing.

Even as recently as a few weeks ago, all indications were that the Wild were not only planning to sign Boston College senior Jack McBain after his NCAA season was complete, but also that they were also willing to burn the first year of the 6-foot-4 center’s two-year entry-level contract by putting him directly into their lineup.

It appears that’s now changed.

As Sportsnet’s Jeff Marek first reported Saturday night on “Hockey Night in Canada,” The Athletic has confirmed that it’s now unlikely that McBain signs with Minnesota. If that turns out to be the case, as Marek reported, it’s likely that general manager Bill Guerin would trade McBain’s rights in advance of the March 21 trade deadline.
