Rossi has 20pts this season playing primarily 2nd line C in a shutdown focused roll.
Believe the Wild would be looking for a roster player + as a return.
Nothing more for now, if I hear anything else I will be sure to update
Interesting. Thanks Royle. Risky move by the Wild to potentially upset their momentum trading their 2nd line centre. Wonder what roster players they would want in return?

If it’s Andersson, they would need to add at least a first round pick IMO.
If it’s Coleman, Calgary might have to add a later pick or prospect.
If it’s Kadri, Calgary would likely have to retain salary but should not have to add anything depending on how much salary is retained.
If it’s Vladar, the flames might have to add a little bit - potentially a later pick.
Not sure what other roster players would have much value that Calgary would be interested in trading.
