According to The Fourth Period, the Wild are looking to make a key addition soon. [The Fourth Period]

The dateline in that article is almost a week old (04Nov2025), plus the fact that a team that's seeking to be competitive is looking to add.

Russo's article today mentioned the wild might be kicking the tires on Kyrou (who's been a healthy scratch with the Blues) and also jokingly tweeted during the game last night that Zucc was talking to Kadri with his glove over his mouth which likely was Zucc telling Kadri to come to MN...

I don't know what the Wild would have to give up for Kyrou, but if it's reported that his healthy scratch was due to 'sending a message about needing to be competitive' I'm not sure that type a player is going to fit in this lineup...

Old man feebly yells at sky. Looks to bring in another 35yr old reclamation project instead of developing player. Water is wet.

Welcome to OCL and GMBG's vision of full seats on another first round exit.

While I wouldn’t bet against your prediction given Guerin’s history. I’m hopeful that we get back a sub-30 year old 1) late bloomer type 2) Tai Domi type OR 3) disgruntled top 6 (kyrou) 

Senko fills our quota for last hurrah Vanek/Hanzel types

Kyrou can't be any less dependent a player on the ice than Tarasenko...one would hope.  $8m is pretty steep, but 70 pt player thresholds are kinda what the Wild need more of if their bottom six is incapable of scoring.

Yes, still searching for our Fiala replacement giving us two lines that are a threat on a consistent basis

i'm kind of ok with vlady....his presence with harty and hinny on L3 is going swell. yeah he has some miss reads and fumbles with the puck but then comes back with some slick moves.....let those three continue to mash and see what we got

johy is also playing like we've never seen before and we are getting some crazy value out of him - he is basically giving us the same production as guentzel at a 7 mm discount 🤔 

so i'd leave johy and vlady and not overpay for Kyrou

wait for the big fish - if available - strike

To me, this sounds like a perfect example of a "change of scenery" need for Kyrou. I'm in on this one, looking to give back futures/prospects.

Kadri is one of my most hated players. I think he's a cheap shot artist and from what I've seen way worse than Cooke (was here). POS is how I would describe him and under no circumstances do I want him donning the green and red.
