That's highway robbery by the Canucks. Even if Hughes stays the Wild paid too much.

Term a big factor here. Just two years of Hughes, while the guys coming back are all young and locked-in for a while.

Maybe Canucks will give him a boatload of ice time and that may change his mind.

If that’s the case Vancouver will probably flip him

Meanwhile all the Flames have to do is trade a 2nd round pick for negotiation rights to Makar.

Oh this is what rebuilding and asset management looks like. Fascinating.

Massive haul for 18 months of control. If he walks this will look terrible for the wild. I think the nucks are actually close to better now as well too with how badly they needed a decent center.
Hopefully bodes well for the d market and potential price for andersson even though Hughes is obviously more dynamic and has a longer deal

All this meanwhile you have a goof like Conroy and co hanging on to Andersson like he’s a better player than Hughes. Hilarity.

I dont think you can rip the flames for holding andersson in this context as its not the exact same market.
But it does give you a rough look at what the return for tkachuk could have been if they went for younger players instead of veterans

It wasn’t a Canada thing. His agent just had certain teams he didn’t want his client in. Vancouver is a lot closer to his San Diego home and a lot nicer than Minneapolis

Gotta respect a GM understanding that his core is as good as it's going to get and pushing his chips into the middle to give them a shot. Who knows if this is enough to get by some of the killers in the division but that back end is looking nice.
Hughes - Faber
Brodin - Spurgeon
Middleton/Hunt - Bogosian
Gustavsson
Wallstedt
Need to go find themselves a centre somehow now.

This will not end well for the Wild as I don’t think he extends there even for Kaprizov money.
Solid return for Van
