Imyourhuckleberry Verified Member Posted 10 hours ago Share Posted 10 hours ago Not sure if he'll be a target, but conceptually, I may like Peterka as a developing player more than getting Boeser or a declining Brock Nelson. Guys under 30 years old who aren't undersized and can both skate and score would be ideal. Some concern that he has fewer hits and blocked shots than Johansson, who does those things at a pretty low level, but getting good young skaters who can put up points would be nice, in general. I can see Guerin wanting a more complete player if giving up more than Ohgren. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pewterschmidt Verified Member Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago JJ's age and stat line have my interest. What would we give up? Ogz wouldn't get it done. Ogz + Rossi is too much. Ogz + Wild NHL spare parts won't get it done Yurov one for one would prove bill has gone 100% schizophrenic on his built from within credo That's why if this deal gets done it'll be: Ogz + Rossi + 2nd round pick for JJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PiranhasOnIce Verified Member Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago Tony - any noise giving a line on what JJ's next contract looks like? He's an RFA I believe. We should lock up Rossi, and then just offer-sheet him. I know (the picks)...but he's a proven commodity vs a crapshoot late round first, or second, etc. wherever the compensation would fall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read an article that his next contract would be in the 6.5-7 range. Probably same as Rossi. Same article also stated that Buffalo really wanted to extend him and had no plans of trading him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same article also stated that Buffalo really wanted to extend him and had no plans of trading him. The Wild traded their 2025 third round draft pick to move up one slot to get Zeev. Which means they can ONLY offer sheet $2,290,457 - $4,580,917 as all other compensation (besides under $1.5M) require that third round draft pick. It's possible that the wild could trade with the flyers to get their 2025 3rd rounder back, but they need to have their own picks to do the offer sheet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rossi plays a more important position. Produces the same offensively and is better defensively. SMH Hard NO on Peterka. If we are giving up assets then we need a legitimate superstar in return. I like the Petterson idea. I'd love Tkachuk (but I doubt he's available) The Wild have a solid supporting cast. They need another superstar. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bigger and the slower the better. Manage those finite assets bill. Sell low, buy high...no wait....Tipping is not a city in China...no wait...oh well we trust you bill. We won't ask any questions because that makes you fussy so we'll just trust you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lern2spell Verified Member Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago An offer sheet would apply to 2026 draft picks. Trading the 2026 2nd for Nyquist closed the door on getting an RFA of Peterka's caliber. But this is the way to build the roster, by targeting RFA's. Would the Wild pick Peterka in the 1st round of the 2026 draft if he were available? Absolutely. So why not offer (gulp) that first with Ohgren and, say, Aron Kiviharju to get Peterka? Maybe it takes another forward prospect (Haight?) to get it done. Or be bold and offer up Wallstedt? Why feel the need to subtract in order to add on the NHL roster? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the offer sheet is under 6.87 they could, but like almost always, it would probably be matched. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely it would be matched, if it were signed. But most likely Peterka would never sign that offer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
