Jared Clinton of The Hockey News: Looking at five teams that could be looking to make a move early in the season.
Minnesota Wild – The Wild are “aging, slow, and not talented enough.” They need to rebuild. They could look at moving Eric Staal, Kevin Fiala, and Jonas Brodin – all don’t have any trade protection.
Dallas Stars – Can’t say coach Jim Montgomery is on the hot seat just year. GM Jim Nill may need to bring in a forward to boost their depth.
