The Minnesota Wild remain flexible so as to add in keeping with their GM
Michael Russo of The Athletic: The Minnesota Wild have just below $3 million in projected salary cap space. They may trade someone to clear extra space. GM Bill Guerin, when asked if he thinks they may acquire a top center (… Dylan Larkin).
“We remain flexible. At once, we’re just gonna concentrate on the fellows that we’ve got, and we’ll proceed to take a look at all the things that’s on the market. If there’s something that is sensible that’ll make our team higher, we are going to do it.”

Potential trade targets for the Pittsburgh Penguins
Dan Kingerski of Pittsburgh Hockey Now: Taking a look at some potential trade targets for the Pittsburgh Penguins. The Penguins are working with just below $17 million in cap space.
Top Tier trade targets
Jason Robertson – Dallas Stars – Any deal would cost no less than three first-round calibre assets, and certain one other piece.
Alexander Nikishin and Jesperi Kotkaniemi – Carolina Hurricanes – The price could be high, but they’d be getting a future top-pairing defenseman. Kotkaniemi needs a change of scenery.
Kirill Marchenko – Columbus Blue Jackets – Their leading goal scorer for the past three years with 23, 31, and 27. The GMs have handled one another before.
Frank Vatrano and Alex Killorn – Anaheim Geese – They could have to move salary. Vatrano is available in at $4.57 million and Killorn at $6.25 million. What sort of sweetener can they get?
Second-Probability, Last-Chase Rescues
Cole Perfetti – Winnipeg Jets – Was a natural center but has been playing on the left wing. The 24-year-old went from 18 goals and 50 points to 12 goals and 32 points last season. Filed for salary arbitration.
Kirby Dach – Montreal Canadiens – The 25-year-old has never had greater than 14 goals and 38 points as a 3rd overall pick. Was qualified at $4 million.
Will No-Trade and No-Movement Clauses Grow to be a CBA Issue?
Shane Wright – Seattle Kraken – Fourth overall pick in 2022 desires to be a top-six center but went from 19 goals and 44 points to 12 goals and 27 points last season. The Kraken will desire a solid return for Wright.
