Well, we all knew Mikko wasn't going to play again for the Wild so no big surprise, but kind of a sad day for me as I always loved havin Mikko on our Wild. The team hit a homerun by drafting him and the guy has been absolutely a first class citizen on and off the ice his entire career. Yes, we would have liked a little more "O"fence outta Mikko, but goodness sakes.....he was a darn good 2 way player. Here are some wonderful highlights.....thanks for the memories Mikko!!

RT @PierreVLeBrun: Wild and Sharks are expected to announce a Ryan Donato trade within the hour; San Jose getting Donato for a third-round pick in '21.
Both teams also still working on a separate Devan Dubnyk deal which if completed would be announced later today.

I don't understand getting rid of Donato.

Why would you get rid of the young guys? We all know who needs to be gotten rid of.

Meh..

Opens up a roster spot, but doesn't clear much money.

Kid has traits. If he figures it out he could be pretty good.

I'm assuming he'll return to all star form?

Sucks to lose a few young guys but I'm guessing Guerin just wants to get rid of all the Fletcher/Fenton stench...

Not sad in the least to see Doobs leave, but will always be thankful for his service....the guy may have single handidly saved the Wild that first year he played here and gave them a few really solid seasons. Best wishes to Doooooooooooooooob!

Hopefully they threw in a bag of pucks as well to double the value of the trade...

I'm not on it enough to know either. I asked this elsewhere and the reply (legit or not?) was:
Donato was young, and wasn't going to fit here given the players in the top6 ahead of him. Was never going to work as a 3rd line guy, and I think, deserved better than 4th line minutes.
fwiw. Not sure I buy not working as a 3rd line guy but it's hard for me to watch Wild games so what do I know.

Bye Mikko!!!! Should've traded his soft ass when he was in his prime!!! And actually got something for him. Vs what he "gave" us aka ZERO banners and a pretty-boy, prima-donna run locker room.

Bye Donato!!! Young, oh well, Go be a 3rd liner for the Sharks and learn from real men how to play hockey. Good luck to you. Getting a 3rd rounder for him is excellent.

Next on the list:
Dumba trade for anything or cut
Parise trade for anything or cut
Suter trade for anything or cut
Greenway trade for anything or cut
Spurgeon trade for anything or cut

They had to eat half of Dub's salary. Ouch.
Basically, they got a slightly better financial deal than buying him out.

I hope we get in the Matt Murray mix. I'd love to get another deal done before the draft then pray Rossi, Perfetti, or Holtz falls to us.

I have no idea who he is other than my kid likes him and scouts are saying he might be the most NHL ready.

He's NHL ready and should play right away. Hopefully takes a little hype away from Kaprizov.
