You can hope in one hand and sh!t in the other and see which one fills up first. 

Guerin would have to be capable of making this happen, so we already know it won't. The Wild don't have enough early picks left in the cupboard for Billy to throw in for free (if only they still had that 2nd...). I like the idea and optimism though!

I really like Guenther but it would take Rossi, Ohgren and some picks.  We also need more top 6 forwards.  Zucc is not a top 6 player on a contending team and shouldn’t sniff the PP.  we need a true 1C not Yurov there. We need to free up cap space for these top 6 forwards by moving Spurgeon or Faber.  All the top teams are winning with offense and we have none.  Faber is our biggest chip.  We need 3 new top 6 forward in addition to Yurov.  We need Offense!!!

Nice take and find ... but, we need a place for Ohgren. Vinny or Brazeau moves?

Anyway we can trade Trenin and/or Spurg. They got game yet but we need to use younger options.

Would we love to have him?  Of course.  Will Utah trade a player that just scored 60 points, just turned 22, and they just signed to an 8 year extension for just over 7M annually in September?  Almost certainly not.

Nice pipe-dream but will not work - just because other teams are not stupid. But you're right: Utah would be a great fit for Rossis playing style and Tourigny loves him.

This is one of the better articles from this author, particularly with Rossi's tie to the current Utah coach being highlighted. Ohgren would likely need to be part of the deal. Looks like that was assumed when looking at the lines.

Guenther is a little better asset than Rossi(both totaling 60 points, but only 70 games for Guenther and he's both bigger/younger), but adding another forward like Ohgren for a developing team might get Utah to the negotiating table.

Looks like Guenther had an undisclosed injury that has caused him to miss the 2025 IIHF World Championship, per Utah Hockey Club Insider Craig Morgan. Obviously would need to check into that, but seems worth considering.
