Article: Marco Rossi's Contract Won't Silence the Trade Whispers


Recommended Posts

Guerin's moves suggest that if someone of high enough value comes on the market, the Wild can make offers.  If Rossi has to be part of that package, it depends on the stature of said player and whether or not it is a no-brainer move.

In the meantime, Rossi and others can develop and maybe be those immovable impact players themselves.  Having options has been a foreign concept for Wild GMs.

I still think a Rossi trade is coming sometime this season and think it might be with PITT, BUF, DET or NYI as part of a bigger trade.  I could see Rossi, Zeev or Faber, a first and something going to PITT for Rakell and Crosby if Crosby wants to move or it would just be Rakell.  I think this trade deadline will be very big and we could see big shakeups with Rossi, spurgeon, Brodin all parts of deals.  Watch out for Barzal and Lee from the islanders.  I am guessing with this new contract Billy’s phone will be active with teams looking to improve.  In Billy’s press conference he said yes Rossi he sees as a top 6 forward but if or anyone doesn’t perform we have to look at adjusting or making other changes.  I still think a much bigger move is coming sometime this year not just with Rossi but a few other guys.  Abd please Billy don’t handcuff this team paying Kap over $13mm.  If he wants more let’s trade him.

Great move for the Wild.....and lots of options in the future with Rossi, depending on his play and stats. 

To me, Rossi is a 3rd line center in the Western Conference, especially in the Central.  But can definitely play 2nd line minutes when needed in the regular season.  Come playoffs, definitely only a 3rd line C.

But I believe Rossi is a 2nd line C in the Eastern Conference, in either the regular season or playoffs. 

In my opinion, an Eastern Conference team will make a move for him at some point this year.

All just my opinion of course🤘

*And I like Rossi's game, he just needs to be more physical.  So, needs to get a nutritionist and a strength coach💪
