I get why people are pissed with the Klingberg deal, but the guy was probably the worst defenseman in the NHL this season! What did they expect in return? That they got something for him is a positive in my eyes. If I were a Minnesota Wild fan I'd be really nervous about this trade. Klingberg better start scoring goals quickly because no one other than Dollar Bill can score for the Wild and Klingberg sure is going to give up his fair share with his horrific defensive play.

I watched the Calgary game and that was the guy I was expecting.. Vertank should'a conveyed that to BG.. hey don't judge him with how he's played with us... give me a value based on how he'd look with you guys.. should have gotten at least a 3rd. Perhaps a 4th. Just a poor negotiator little patty...
Yeah he did ok with Thrun.. fck'm and with Kulikov... but retaining salary WTF.
Overall D - and that is being quite generous... He's butchered the whole year... there were deals to be made to make this team way more competitive early and throughout the year for real D men. On waivers and trades ...
Vertank is in over his head.. and if the Samueli's can't afford this team which it seems they cannot.. sell the owners who can.
