Probably still some other common denominators in the front-office?

The only thing we can be 99% sure of is that this didn't come out from the NYI side.

Bill Guerin presser is at 2:45, so that would also make it appear the Parise trade didn't go down. In addition to Parise waiving no-move, @FriedgeHNIC reported Andrew Ladd waived no-trade to come to Minnesota.

So appears complicated deal broke down late
Good. As long as that brutal contract is on the Wild, they ain't going anywhere.

I wouldn't be surprised to see this revisited in the offseason

This makes plenty of sense from both sides

Could be coming from the agents since they’d have been involved with the NTC’s.

would you make this trade for Parise for Lucic? Lucic has a similar contract value to Ladd

Parise clearly the better player, but 5 years, $7.5 AAV and $29M in real dollars. What happens if Parise falls off a cliff in two years, and you are left with 3 years at a higher AAV than what Lucic or Ladd is currently owed?

Seems very risky and short sighted for NYI.

I wouldn't make this trade for Ladd (or Lucic) unless there were significant concessions (salary retention) by the Wild
