Ohgren is a young LW Coleman clone, O'Rourke and Spacek are both buried in the Wild system a bit, but would be at the top of our barren system on defense, and the 22nd would give another shot at a centre in the draft.
I'm 100% behind using some trades for a quick rebuild turnaround.

Unless Minny has learned (like many teams have, but not all), that giving 8 year contracts to 30 year old's is not a sustainable business model.
