He is a 60 pt guy on an ascending trajectory. I'm sure lots of teams will be interested.

The issue seems to be cap related for the Wild (projecting out to other contracts maybe) and usage related for Rossi. There is a rift there judging by the exit interviews and media day stuff.
I doubt you could offer-sheet Rossi without giving up a 1st.

Bourque is likely the only target that you could comfortably offer-sheet in that 2nd round pick cost tier.

As excited as I am about the offer-sheet idea, I would not be willing to give up next year's 1st. That eliminates most of the top tier RFA targets (Byram, Rossi, Peterka, etc).
