Dan Wallace: Two Lopsided Wins Are Just 4 Points

Do you buy into the belief that it has to get worse before it gets better? I just don't see a real way for that to happen unless we mortgage more of our future.

Hey, this is just what Fenton needed. A reemergence of Coyle and Nino to up their potential trade value before the trade deadline. I don't think i'm going out on much of limb here, but I personally don't think there is any way the roster as it currently sits is good enough to win it all.

There is no doubt this roster still needs a big shake up, and if it needs to happen in the middle of what looks to still be a possible "good" season, then that's just the way it goes. Dont' get me wrong, love them making the post season every year, but really tired of never making any noise once they get there.

Time to start the rebuild.

As you alluded to Dan, why wait til you hit rock bottom desperation to start?

As far as moving pieces goes, i honestly don't care who or how many as long as this squad gets younger, faster and more skilled up front.

I would suggest to consider; Coyle, Nino, Zucker, Staal, Spurgeon and possibly even Dumba but would depend on getting top value for him. Not much value in the other veterans on the roster and for obvious reasons most of them can't or won't be moved.

Kapanen. Move whoever it takes

Fake hope. Hate to be negative, but can't help it over the last 6-7 seasons. 2 wins are nothing to get excited about. The Wild are still the team they are the whole season
