The recent swap with the Boston Bruins of Charlie Coyle for Ryan Donato and a draft pick opens up over $2 million, whilst the deal that saw Nino Niederreiter traded to the Carolina Hurricanes saw another $1.25 million opened up, though Victor Rask hasn’t exactly offered a great deal in return, since swapping to Minnesota Wild colours.
Either way, that is no small sum of money that has been opened up by Minnesota Wild General Manager, Paul Fenton. An additional $3.25 million, along with Matt Dumba and Mikko Koivu sitting on injured reserve means that the team could go big on a rental should they wish.
