The Minnesota Wild have had a pretty quiet trade history, but today we begin our series with the 5th best and worst trade in Wild History.
As I’m writing this, four years ago today (June 29th, 2016) in the span of 20 minutes two trades shocked the NHL. The Oilers traded Taylor Hall to the Devils for Adam Larsson. Exactly 20 minutes later P.K. Subban was traded to Nashville for Shea Weber.
