Beware of secondary sources but I'm seeing tweets about a media availability in Minnesota by Wild beat reporter Michael Russo, who reportedly had this to say on a radio hit:
- Mikko Koivu has been asked to waive his NMC
- An Eastern team reportedly has strong interest in Zach Parise (my guess? The Islanders)
- Guerin is fielding offers on Dumba and Brodin

Parise is willing to waive no-move is this comes to fruition. It’s a complicated trade. Talks have been ongoing with #mnwild since last summer and revived lately. Ladd would have been the return last summer

Damn I wanted Parise to be stuck with the Wild until that stupid contract was over. That contract was one of the first 10+ year contracts that really caused things to snowball and the league to step in and place limits on the length. It's blown up in the Wild's face and forced them to be stuck in mediocrity for a long time.
There's still 5 years left after, and the Wild are going nowhere as long as it's on the team. I hope the deal falls through and the Wild are forced to keep him.
Okay that actually makes sense then. Still big big money but I can definitely see why 20 goal Parise makes a lot of sense over AHLer Ladd for a team that is clearly going for it right now
