The Minnesota Wild and GM Bill Guerin have already been active ahead of Monday’s trade deadline. Earlier this week they nabbed post-hype young center Tyson Jost in exchange for pending free agent Nico Sturm, securing a little bit more certainty for who will be on the roster going forward. And while the team is just treading around the idea of making the playoffs, they aren’t putting in enough inspiring performances down the stretch that makes us all collectively feel that they are poised to win a round.
Anyways, that’s bigger questions for later. One interesting tidbit and almost a guarantee at this point, is that the signing rights to 22-year-old Boston College center Jack McBain will be traded, and most likely before the deadline.
