I dont think we should be buyers. I think the opportunity to stay the course might eek us into a wildcard spot but we have a few bodies we can sell off and recoup with. I think the Kraken would be better suited doing that and using guys like Wright and Evans and starting to integrate that first wave of prospects in as regulars while adding more to the cupboard for the real shakeup which is the offseason and draft.

Nope, not a shot in a ducks fart Seattle makes a Cup run. Better they think about the future. Either sell little pieces for prospects and picks, or ride out the roster as is and hope for the best next season. Take it from me, I'm a Wild fan, I've seen MANY bad trade deadline deals.

Agree there with ya whole heartedly. RF can move some of the guys at deadline on expiring contracts and just keep building up. We are seeing the first wave with Evans and Wright etc etc all working into the lineup and I think that really is the way to go. Patience and just work it up.

No, in fact they should be sellers. If Byram is truly available from the Avalanche they should help them to get whatever they need to make a run.

After the break and pair of losses. Not a great playoff push being made here at all 😢

Nice 2-1 win over the Isles to snap the 4 game losing streak. And then big game by Daccord and co. to make it a pair with a 4-1 win iver Boston to boot.

Trade deadline will be interesting. Talking heads on Leafs vs Flyers got interesring as they mentioned Eberle could be heading to the Oilers. Curious if its for their one troubled d Broberg in the minors or picks?

Tough one. 4-3 OT loss but least battled back to get a point vs the Wings

Big rivalry win over the struggling Canucks. Great to get a win there. McCann with his 25th of the season. Schultz and Eberle with a pair, both of whom could be moved soon so nice to have them elevating their game some. Only 19 shots against on Gru but didnt do bad between the pipes either.

What a rough one. Worse since Calgary beat the Oilers and the loss was to the Wild. Brutal outing for Daccord. Need to bounce back off this one
