Wild GM ‘listening’ to trade offers for Dumba, Brodin before expansion draft

With Saturday’s trade freeze looming ahead of the Vegas Golden Knights’ expansion draft, Minnesota Wild GM Chuck Fletcher is one of the executives in the biggest binds.

His reward for building a deep roster is that he’s likely to lose a pretty nice asset, which is why he’s “definitely actively listening” to calls regarding trading one of his surplus defensemen, as he told Michael Russo of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune.

To be more specific, if one blueliner would go, Russo reports that Fletcher has received “quality offers” for Mathew Dumba and Jonas Brodin (especially Brodin).

The Wild general manager has gotten “quality trade offers” for both Jonas Brodin and Matt Dumba, sources say. With Ryan Suter and likely Jared Spurgeon being two of the maximum three Wild defensemen that can be protected, the Wild may have determined that it would be more prudent to trade Brodin or Dumba rather than risk losing one for nothing during Wednesday’s expansion draft.

McKenzie: "Montreal is by no means the only team in on Jonas Brodin."

Penguins may not be able afford Justin Schultz next year


After falling out of favor in Edmonton, Schultz proved this year — with an exclamation point — that he belongs in the NHL. And now it’s time for the pending restricted free agent to get paid.

Keeping Schultz in Pittsburgh could prove to be an expensive endeavor for Rutherford. Schultz is worth more because he plays on the right side and right-handed defensemen who can move the puck are always in high demand. However, the Penguins have a lot of players to sign this offseason. So if the two sides can’t agree to terms, things could get interesting in a hurry.

“He’s the top priority when the season ends,” Rutherford admitted recently. “It’s not whether I can make it work, it’s more whether we can make it work. Him and us. Does he get a big raise? Of course he gets a big raise, which he well deserves, but we’re probably not going to be able to give him what he thinks he should get. We still control him for one year with arbitration, but then the arbitration number could come higher than what we can fit in the cap.”

I really like Schultzy. I hope they can find a happy medium to stay, but like others before him, can't blame him to chase the money. He has 2 Cups to take with him.
 
I would keep Kunitz on a one year deal, if cheap. Cullen will be gone. It's time to start rebuilding our defensive development squad. I would take Joe Thornton in the meantime. Sorry Spike, your boy Depres never panned out. But maybe Sully can pull a Schultzy on him.

It's not because "he didn't pan out"

He's had major multiple concussion issues, only played 1 game this year because of it. If anybody knows how to handle concussions, it's the pens. He's only 26.

I was a tad bummed, at the time, when Despres was traded, but not so sure how healthy he is. He can be a banger, but a Dman that's a banger with concussion issues is tricky. I'd kick him around for a low cost deal, after an eval, of course.

I thought you couldn't buy out injured players? Unless he let them because he's never playing again - that would be sad.



I really don't see Bonino coming back. He just won 2 Cups and is 29. If there was ever a time to cash in, it's now. He probably isn't going to give us a discount to stay on..
 
Oshie... Are the caps looking to re-negotiate with him though?


On Oshie: MacLellan said they've just had some general talks. If he re-signs depends on what salary cap is. If it's 77 mill, decent chance.

https://twitter.com/ikhurshudyan/status/869595336188338176


if they get him for under $7M a year, good for them....it will take a lot

Out of our price range - and he's a winger - we are loaded with wingers now - need blue line help or a 3rd center if Cullen quits

--------------------

Joe Thornton - C - Sharks


Joe Thornton, who is recovering from a torn ACL and MCL, has been working out daily at the Sharks' practice facility.

Sharks GM Doug Wilson believes that Thornton will be ready for the start of the 2017-18 campaign. Thornton is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this summer, but he's engaged in contract talks with San Jose. Based on a previous report, it's believed that Thornton is seeking a three-year deal.

A 2nd stint with the Pens.
It wouldn't hurt to give him a look.
 
Matt Dumba though. Now that's a fave non-Pens player of mine
 
McKenzie: "I don't think Dumba is going to be dealt. I'm not saying there's no chance." #mnwild


I could be wrong, but I don't see the Pens doing much if anything until either draft day or July 1 FA signings. Have to see what cap space will be. .

yeah - signings should be Dumo and Schultz and then go from there.

Freeze starts tomorrow at 3

Protection lists will be announced 10 am on Sunday

Penguins looking for toughness that can "play on a regular basis"

“We are going to try to add a player or two that maybe we can have more protection in our lineup,” Rutherford said, per the Tribune-Review. “That’s not that easy because [coach Mike Sullivan] likes to roll four lines and you’ve got to plug a guy in that can play on a regular basis, but hopefully that’s what we can do.”

What Rutherford wants to add is probably someone along the lines of Kyle Clifford or Matt Martin — a tough guy that can play regular shifts and chip in with the occasional bit of offense. Both Clifford and Martin were among the league leaders in scraps this season. Clifford scored 12 points in 73 games while averaging just under 11 minutes per night, while Martin played all 82 regular season and six playoff tilts for the Leafs.

Of course, finding those types of guys is easier said than done. And even if you do, there are those that contend salaries and usage aren’t commensurate with the actual value tough guys provide, especially in terms of possession.

My daughter shot me a text today to say she waited on Olli Maatta. Huge Pens fan, she's all happy.
 
Pretty cool to meet Maatta. I bet she was happy. Not too often we see celebs or any sports icons here in NM. I have met Clay Guida though.


As for the Pens free agency. Rutherford is set on having toughness and feistiness on the lines. If he gets his wish, I see two lines being a gritty physical line. It'll be interesting how this plays in Sullivans system

Yeah I don't want to see Rutherford add any goons to this team. They need to stick to skilled players as that's what helped win them two straight Cups.
 
I disagree. We need a couple of tough guys that can contribute. Seeing our guys getting the **** kicked out of them all game long just doesn't sit well with me. And the refs let that **** go all playoffs long. Nashville pounded the **** out of Crosby in the first 4 games.

The Pens have done alright the past couple of years without those tough guys. The last time we had them we were getting eliminated in the playoffs.

I think having a tough guy who can play. You just don't want that mindset trickling into the team.
Crosby had enough of the bullshit to put Subban into his place. Our players are grown men who can throw down if needed.


I'd like for an enforcer too. But the Pens current system is seeing some tremendous success

What kind of tipper is the "Son of Stackhouse"?

I hear the French Canadian players are cheap...

what about the Scandinavians?
