We could have never guessed that the Minnesota Wild would be one of the key teams at this year’s NHL trade deadline. Despite having loads of cap space available, the team’s roster was fairly set except from a couple holes or replacements to make. You couldn’t really do a whole lot with it, bit general manager Bill Guerin did a whole lot of transactions in the last week.
By our count, they made a total of five trades this week with a focus on adding to this roster for this season only and making the cap situation more comfortable in the summer.
