The Wild Need To Get Worse, Before They Get Better.
On one side are the people who think the Wild should stay the course. They feel it’s silly to blow everything up because teams such as the Oilers and Sabres who have done exactly that haven’t found the success to come even close to a title.
On the other side are the people who say that the Wild need that superstar player that can carry the team, and the only way is to trade the farm and tank. Many think the former sounds like the noble and honorable way to build a team, while the latter is basically gaming the system. Noble as it may be to build on what the Wild have, the trade and tank is absolutely the way to go.
